Brita Filtered Water Removing Good Minerals?

i ended up buying the sea cal from humbolt and have been giving as a foliar spray seems to be helping alot

epsom salt is magnesium sulfate there is no calcium, and ph meters are around 30 bucks you dont have to spend 200 thats crazy dude

i'm pretty sure i have a micro nute problem as well, except its from my tap water... my water come out at about 0-10ppm (my meter only measures by 10's, and it hovers between 0 and 1) i need to go to the store and grab some cal mag! i no longer drink bottled water or waste any money on Britta filters, after realizing my tap water is cleaner then almost every type of bottled water on the market, except distilled obv.

...idk about that Brita filter, but....most tap water is cleaned, than has elements added back into it. The pH is raised to prevent pipe corrosion along with some elements that are actually beneficial to humans and plants....if your ppm is under 200 from tap, that's what I'd be using. It's the chlorine that I have a problem with.

At least your guys ppm out of tap isn't 700-1000 found that out after first grow!! Def gonna go reverse osmosis. Or distilled.

Britas don't remove any of the good minerals. They are a simple carbon filter which removes some sediment, chlorine, some chloramines, some organic compounds and heavy metals. You need a reverse osmosis filter to remove minerals.

Holy fuck. That's some crazy high shit! Mine comes out at like 185-200, and then after de-chlorination it sits at around 160-175
