Another thread sidetracked by Mistress...I learned from Krunch and put him/her on my ignore list.
There is almost certainly CA available to the plants in the standard tap water. It only makes sense that if they make a separate formula for hard water, then that means more CA is available and they are compensating for that.
This is super useful. I use House and Garden's complete line. It does make sense to figure out exactly what is going on. I basically figured it out through simply ramping it up until the plant could not take any more. Then pulling back. It works but is not ideal. Now I just use past experience to dictate my feeding levels. I'm sure there are some areas where I could improve my feeding, but it's hard to understand when the nutrient companies make it so complicated.
I will read up some more and hopefully be back to post up some useful information.
