that is the kicker huh? as long as it gets me to the end of this flower cycle it's a win win

my water usage so far:

Filled the res with a garden hose, about 30 gallons at 250 ppm

added back about 22 gallons back to the system of which 15 was distilled, 7 was 250 ppm brita filtered tap water - none of the auto dry water yet

I had not figured that out yet, but here I am at 10 weeks on a res and I still have not replaced the water once!

That's kinda cool
Did the same thing a few times getting used to the new R/O,depending on how much you add it can sometimes be better to just dump and start from scratch than adding even more chem. to bring it back up.

I use ANs Barricade for my PH up when needed,needed it more with the tap and now i find i use just a lil PH down to fix things.
