Hey guys, I think I may be having a ph issue but I read on this one site that if you use pure water, like the kind you would buy at a grocery store, the ph wouldn't be an issue because the ph is probably perfect. What do you guys think of this because I need a nice clean ph'd water. I don't want to spend money on a ph test kit to only find out I need ph up or down.

Right now for watering I just use the water that comes out of my fridge. It's fine drinking water that comes out , but it's not as pure as a gallon of good water from a store I think. What do you guys think? Sorry if I'm posting about stupid things but I just really need help on this one. Thanks

If you grow in soil your ph is governed by what's in your mix so unless you are adding heavy nutes I doubt your ph is off. It's more likely nute burn...what kind of soil mix do you use?
If you are growing in a hydro medium like coco you would need to ph the water/nutrient solution when you feed but soil has its own ph which can only be checked accurately with a soil probe.

Can you tell us of the last prosecution of someone for collecting a few gallons of rain?

These laws were passed in arid states to keep peeps from collecting h2o from large areas parchinging everything else around.

No I can't say that I've ever heard of any one getting in trouble for collecting rain water. I was just trying to give someone a heads up. I mean I wouldn't want cops at my place cuz I was collecting rain water and they stumble upon my grow. Its a small grow but things like that get ppl in trouble sometimes. Just thought everyone should know just in case.
