I've been using dyna gro for the past three weeks and cannot seem to get my ph down. After doing some research I've switched to Advanced Nutrients Sensi Grow. Ive been using Spring water bought from the store. Now with the sensi gro it recommends that you use reverse osmosis water. I do not have a reverse osmosis filtration. What is my next best option as I do not want to use tap water?

I'm with Dad. Use tapwater no matter the brand of nutrients unless it's untested well water. Any municipal supply will have a water report available every quarter. RO systems are expensive and hauling water gets old and is nearly always totally unnecessary.
I've tried using ph down its just not working.. lost three seedlings in the past three weeks. Dyna wasn't doing anything. My ph was at a 7.2. I had three seeds sprout and then do nothing except slowly wilt away. Here in fl my room stays 78 results at 75 all times. Growing in grodan rockwool in pots of perlite. 300w galaxy hydro 2 cfls.

why are you giving nutes to a sprout? Not the dyna gros fault, user error

you can add a small amount and work your way up when they get to be about 2-3 inches tall
what dyna did you use for that rockwool?

probably not the best choice for hydro,but still, you don't give nutes to a seedling unless it is a super small dose.

i use dyna in peat moss, it works great, it is a 1 part.
AN is the most worthless piece of shit company out there and i wouldn't give them a penny if i pissed on it.

Because dyna is complete, costs a lot less and is a single part system.
