I have had problems with my plants getting sick for 6 grows. it was not to recently I figured out it was from my CITY tap water. I started filtering it because I could not think what else it could possibly be. The same thing was still happening so as a last ditch efford I stated buying bottled spring water.
These plants are perfect with none of the spotting and kind of a nuke burn look. They would not finish.. the tricks would start to turn amber and that was it.
Any way that is what I think was happening, I just went 12-12 with my Blue moonshine and delahaze and am hoping these finish and go amber.

yup it was your water. Did you also let it sit for 24 hrs to let all the cholorine and floride go out of it? Have you ever checked the ph of the water? I have to use bought water also. I sympathize.

Peace

I did let it sit and always adjusted the ph. I heard that there is crap in your water that filtering and sitting do not get rid of. So its bottled water for the rest of this grow.

It works for me as well. It is either buy it or get an osmosis filter for the water. Can't do that right now so I buy it. Don't foreget to use rain water if you can.

Also, any water from a dehumifier. It is just like distilled water, pure as pure can be. It really cuts down on the jugs of water you have to buy.

Peace

I am on a well, and our water tastes great, just very hard and full of calcium. Oh well. Such is life!
