right iv had a few grows and read a few people dont bother adjusting the ph/ppm of the water to grow in, using ro water just add the nutes and away they go
is this just people talking or is it possible to do? would save alot of hassle on a small bubbler system
i currently have a 5litre bubbler setup and ready to get cracking when iv finished my cab
and from experience the small rez needs alot of attention and one of the main things is the ph, so if i could just skip that that would be awesome lol

In my opinion...ph is one of the most important factors in healthy growth. With r/o I have found that my ph is way to low once all the additives are added and ph up has to be used to get in the zone. With tap water it is possible to ph balance by adding the nutes and additives in just the right amounts to bring your ph down to that zone.

With a 5l bubble set up it should be easy enough to balance another container then switch the container out daily. the one you have switched out can now sit and airate till tommorrow, ph balance the next day and swithc again.

Good Luck
