Light burn from cfl?

[micmac]

Nutrient lookout or deficiency looks like over watering, a lot of ppl make that mistake

The plant starts to go light green and the leaf tips start to go brown and it dies ,

Thanks guys they're looking a lot happier after the rainwater the other day so must have been my feral tap water, which had pH 7.2-7.4, poisoning the poor buggers. Chlorine/chloramine toxicity I'm thinking. makes me wonder if I should even be drinking the shit, couldn't be too good for us if it poisons plants

[ooodog]

Better then my tap water, PH 8.2-8.6. My eyes are being opened.

Geez that's bad, thinking I might have to distill my water or buy bottled springwater

I refuse to use town water the amount of chlorine among other crap that goes into is scary, my hubby was testing the pool water so i asked him to check the town water and our tap water had the same amount of chlorine levels as our pool, that was a few years back now and haven't drank that crap water since,i think another member mentioned once that if you pre fill a few buckets of tap water and leave it in the sun for a couple of days a lot of the chlorine evaporates thus making it much better for you plants but i havent personally tried this and tested the water but it sounds like a good option for those that dont have rainwater tanks,,,GQ

That's actually crazy, I know I feel gross after swallowing a few mouthfuls of pool water so I don't blame you for not touching it.

I remember someone saying that they have replaced chlorine with chloramine in a lot of places because it doesn't evaporate so readily so leaving water out for a few days might not cut it anymore

Yeah you could be right buds,the only other thing i can think of to counter act that is to maybe use boiled water or filter it some how but that would only be viable for a small grow,or maybe get heap of buckets and collect rain water and store in a dark place ready for use, i guess im lucky in the sense i have a large water tank that keeps me going but yeah tap water is yyyyyucky stuff for people and plants

Yeas gq, I keep 2 res 1 let sit for about 3 days to let chlorine out so I always got 1 ready to go

If it rains I dump it on the lawn and collect as much as I can get (150 litres)

When I've emptied 1 n it doesn't rain I know it's been sitting for a while with small fish tank filter going in all tubs to keep mozzies out n water always moving n making bubble
