    I bought an ro system when i thought i had pH issues. In the end my PK was bad

    It was a cheap 4 stage one and gets the water to 0.0 pretty well. I got the 100gpd and thats fortunate as they demand huge amounts of pressure. The 50gpd must be very slow indeed.

    If anything, i will use 50/50 with tap water. They waste shit loads of water, like 4 litres per litre

    Well, my post was explaining what I personally would do when I get the RO system...I'll be growing in both soil and coco..using different types of nutrients

    Mixing it in 50-50 will just work nicely for me

    If jumper would care to take a look thru the archives the canna AB and pk Only has been a award (bling) wining method over the years on here ,by members past and present ...and tbh wins hands down over pretty much any other feed regime I've see. On here if I'm honest ...add bottles add meither ......some folk can't be taught

    I think Jumper was saying that he thinks the Canna A+B already has the micronutrients that I was talking about (the reason I said wanted to use 50-50 mix with my tap water) Sad mate

    At the end of the day..no drama, to each their own as they say brother

    Well if it is the case that Canna has the micronutrients you mentioned then that’s great.

    I’m going to give Canna a go on the next run to do a comparison but given the results I’m getting thus far I can’t see any reason not to continue with Advanced Nutrients, but do want to see if Using Canna makes a difference..

    That's what it's all about Bud_Wiser...finding what works for us individually, you're happy with Advanced Nutrients and it works for you?.. then that's fantastic, if you wish to try out Canna to compare that's great too

    Can be a fun journey to find what works best for us

    Careful with this. Chlorine and chloramine interfere with proper nute mixing and binding. Most modern chlorine and chloramine cannot be evaporated sufficiently.
