    The water companies normally allow you to find out exactly what's in your water.

    Here's mine...

    Your Ec will tell you if its hard or soft....High Ec=hard. Low Ec= soft.

    It's not fit for human consumption. That's what I only drink diet coke. The water here is beyond being shit. The only other place that was worse than here is Houston.

    So my water is very soft water and cf from tap is between 1 - 2cf/
    So got my new ph meter and fuck me my nutes both grow and bloom were PH7 which is way off as im in coc and always do 5.9 everytime.
    So suggestions people to bring it back as i have not fed my plants for 3 days now and they are still alive lol but i do not want to amplify the problem by doing wrong nute mixm btw i have given my vegging plants some feed ph 5.8 and cf 20 as they are hungry bastards and pretty large now.

    my water absolutely stinks of chlorine so its definately in my uk supply.

    doesnt stink after 24+hrs standing though so whatever it is is gone :unknown:

    as an aside,when i lived in smoke,they said the water there was recycled some 25 times n let back into the system,thats recycled piss etc.

    i only drank bottled water from then on
