Good morning all,

Apologies for the duplication, I had posted this in the wrong section me thinks.

I'm watering my plants with locally purchased still mineral water. The breakdown of minerals is as follows:

Typical Values per litre -
Calcium 11.0mg -
Magnesium 3.5mg -
Potassium 2.5mg -
Sodium 10.0mg -
Bicarbonate 25.0mg -
Sulphate 11.0mg -
Nitrate 15.0mg -
Chloride 14.0mg -
Dry Residue @ 180C 85.0mg -
Ph 6.2

Can anyone advise me if the level of minerals are beneficial or detrimental to my plants?

Many thanks,

Harry

how are you feeding you plants? super soil? organic feed? bottled salts?

A 60/40 Biobizz All Mix / Light Mix soil + Ecothrive Charge [Info states I should be good with just the soil and the Charge for 4-5 weeks.]

I plan on top dressing with more Charge and some Biosys in a few weeks time and I have some Biobizz Bloom to use once flowering commences.

Everything covered or any glaring omissions?
