Re: When a blessing becomes a curse

["Cory and Susanne Williamson" <webwill@infinet.net>]

My water is very soft too- for the plants I add 1 measured teaspoon each of
calcium chloride and sodium bicarbonate per 20 gallons of water (I also use
Co2 injection)- my water comes out of the tap at less than one degree german
hardness for both the carbonate and general hardness and pH 6.5. After
adding the baking soda and CaCl the water is at 4 degrees general hardness
and 3 carbonate hardness. The water chem. is very stable for me with this
setup- with Co2 the pH stays at 6.5.
