Even if there was it's of no use without microbes to break it down and make it available to the plant.
Sorry I'm a little tired. wish it were because I was high.

For me I'm trying mycho and whatever's in the compost in my mix. Does that create enough microbes? If not are there some other microbes you recommend that aren't too difficult to add?

Sounds good. I use GW till I run out and the Raw brand veg and bloom and hydrogaurd. You dont have a messed up plant the other guy does. You are using microbes, hes not.

Why not filter it ?
If you have a well then you have to run a pump and it takes alot of water to get r o water so there is the waste and probably your well water is clean enough to get the job done without any issues. But I would need a lot of water if your just doing a few plants then go for it.

Whats the ppm of your well water??


Just dont use water softener water on your plants.

Whatever type of ProMix you got it must be one with nutes like the Veg and Herb or those plants wouldn't get so big in a party cup without added nutes.

Time for bigger pots and with the RO water you'll be better off. Your well water may be just fine if you can get it before it goes through the softener. If using the regular salt in the softener there is way too much sodium in it for your plants.

I started feeding them jacks citrus 1/2tsp/gal and 1/4 tsp of Epson salt and started using straight well water that has 165ppm and things really turned around! Thanks for the help !
