What kind of cal+mag do you use? I'm looking for something that'll run clean in my rez and won't cause issues with my blumats.

I can't find where they have moved the guaranteed analysis for the various types of V+B on the site, but in my experience, the RO version doesn't need "cal+mag". The RO version already has 10% Ca included in it, which is substantially higher than most nutrients - for instance, Maxi Bloom has 5%. Cal-Mag has nitrogen in it (more than the Mg, actually), and in combination with what is already in V+B, it can raise the level higher than I want.

Epsom salts are cheap, widely available, and work great in Blumats. I add 1.3 grams/gallon as a general rule, and up to 2.0 grams/gallon for the mag hogs. This also picks up the sulfur level, of which my water has zero.

spot on brutha !!! the only reason i'm adding it is because i'm running alot of GG4 crosses & sour bubble crosses both of which seem to need the extra Cal as well as the Mag . epsom worked on the GG4 crosses but not the SB . & with such a small dose that i use (2ml) & only use in veg , the extra nitrogen is actually a good thing for these hogs !

to answer Beta's question .... i use CaliMagic .

Any feedback from anyone else on whether or not the RO formula would work with my 0.4EC / 200ppm ~7pH water straight out of the tap? If not, does anyone have an RO unit to recommend for a personal-sized grower?

Give Chris a call or drop him an email. He has always been very helpful for me.

Using the growonix ex100 and am happy with it. I believe that it's a 2:1 waste to treated water unit. I believe there are 1:1 units, but not sure if you're going to find them in a small size.

I use the Stealth RO 100GPD plus i have 3 sediment filters before my RO unit because of my shitty tap water . i have 2 flow restrictors on my drain so that i have a 3 to 1 waste instead of 2 to 1 .

55 gallon RO collection barrel with a float valve , i have a 296 gph pump in it plugged into a power strip with an on/off switch for when i need water . i mix in 5 gallon pails , so i just pump the water into the pail as i'm mixing .

Looking good, Dan. We have similar setups. I recently started using my waste water from my dehumidifier. Cut the waste out of my RO.

I don't know why it wouldn't be. Mine runs into my trash can or even into 5 gal water jugs if I need to move my dehumidifier closer to a flowering tent.:biggrin:

It's just condensing it out of the air. Should be clean as far as I know.
