Here are 2 test that were done on our well water, can you H2O guru's check them out for any issues (ex. too much Cal / Mag)

They show different amounts but unsure what level is good or bad..

My Tests:

PH: 7.4
EC: .3
PPM: 200





Thanks

Stitch - Dont think the well has had any services since it was constructed about 10 yrs ago - I will double check tonight. & the RO system is a separate unit used for foliar mixs mostly but can dilute the well water to soften it if the water looks to hard. I am having high PH runoff for some time even when feeding / watering with low PH.

THANKS A BUNCH BROTHER

Pro-Mix site does what looks like a very good test on soil (compost) / water / etc / layed out with easy to read results. $30 per test

http://www.premierhort.com/eProMix/Horticulture/Products/GrowingMediumTM/ProMoss/fProMoss.htm

Or you may want to contact your local water treatment plant / authority.

My test were done in 05 so I may send out a sample of my well water & a sample of my compost for testing through Pro-Mix..

Thanks for the link CGR. Don't like the idea of sending a plant tissue sample. A wedge of the root ball seems okay. I'd pay $30 just for the water test. Wonder if they'll do just that.

Sure they would just do water test, found that info here somewhere.

Plant tissue for us = probably wouldn't

Gonna send them a sample from my compost pit to see how it looks - since I make my own mix now it would really help me dial in even better..
