Raw is having a sale right now. I picked up that Mega OG I’ve been looking at for 30% off.
JR’s Cherry Paloma cut came from Raw Genetics seeds.
I’ve also been drafted into the Irie Army! He’s having a sale too! Use code “Irie” to get free shipping!!

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.

Brando is correct. I struggle with similar issues. There is often magnesium carbonate, and or calcium carbonate in water. These are the main cause of ‘hardness’ and ‘total alkalinity’. When these are present the ph will drift up over time. I used some test strips to better understand what is in my well water. You can get a water report from your utility company. Those aren’t as detailed.
RO and distillation are the most effective ways to remove calcium carbonate. Most other filter types won’t. For this reason people blend RO with other water source 50:50 to reduce the concentration. Theoretically if you had the right concentration and proportion it wouldn’t drift or lock as much.

If you want to buy some unnecessarily expensive seeds that are worth it, check Compound Genetics. Definitely a breeder’s breeder. They’ve done stuff like menthol and pave. I was blessed to receive an unreleased pack, called new money from them at the emerald cup. I really need to run these!
Sin City is another breeder’s breeder. I don’t know as much about them. Just like they are in the back story of greatness. Probably expensive?

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.
