NYC area…ppm 140, ph 7.8-ish. I need to add a bit of cal/mag to my hydro solution to keep the plants healthy.

none at all. I use FFOF soil (amended with 1 cup dolomite lime and 1-64oz bag of perlite per bag of FFOF) and never feed until week 1 after flip. then its 100% flower nutes for 6 weeks, then water only last 2 weeks.

Well water on a lake ppms are real bad. My PPM meter said 140 x10 so I guess 1400. It tastes like shit so all we drink is bottled water. I don't even like showering in it. We are looking into a 5 stage filtering setup as we speak.

Ouch!!! You're definitely gonna need a r.o. filter, my friend. I hope your mother is as well as possible.
