Yes, but it will also lower the pH. Are you sure chloramine is the issue? Have you done a water test? The home test strips are good enough. You can also learn some info from a municipal report published annually.

Well no I guess I’m not completely sure but I use the cheap test strips for ph and hard water. I’ve tried just bubbling it for about two days and the hard water stayed hard. Must be nice.lol but what else would cause the water to stay hard?

[jmystro]

Minerals like calcium make water hard. Not chlorine or chloramine. You can’t evaporate calcium.

Thanks jmystro. I was wondering about that. I do have high ph already so it could help with that as well?

Another question? How do you feel about trifecta myco? I was just gonna straight with silicic acid. I do dwc btw

[jmystro]

Recharge has all the correct endo-mycos. Hard water high in calcium will be alkaline. If it’s too alkaline (above 8), you’ll want to lower it to around 6.

I do drop it to around 5.8 to 6.2. I generally don’t have a problem with ph. In the 90s I had no other issues either but I guess it was the strain. I just feel like something is holding back the roots. Idk maybe I’m paranoid. I got some clones and some veg and some in flower. This is my first run with these strains. Animal face, sour lemon haze and project 4510.I’ll check in a couple weeks from now and let you know.

Mystro got it figured out. I’m always learning from him. You can pH the water but it will slowly creep back up. It is 10x easier to raise the pH than to lower it. Sucks.

Calcium and alkaline minerals in water caused a lot of my issues. I’ve phed, supplement magnesium sulfate, gave cal mag, blended RO water to lower the ppm and buffer it. Still figuring it out.

Boiling water for 20 minutes will remove chloramines. Lid off.
