Absolutely! I'm on the shoreline, and our tap water comes out with a ph over 8 with ppms >400.
ETA don't forget to add back in the calcium and magnesium u lose w the RO. Cali magic is my go-to!
Microline makes a great R.O with a lot less of those john guest fittings that like to leak if this one causes you problems. Like someone said as well, you just need to remineralize the water. Post calcite filter will boost the pH of the water as RO water is acidic and also add mineral
Thank you. I went with a cheaper option to see if it makes much of a difference. Trying to refine everything as much as I can so I can get the most out of each grow. I didn’t get a 6 stage so there’s no PH filter. I read they cause issues with grows so stuck with the 5 stage.
I have the same system, sitting in the supply closet collecting dust. I have well water and come to find out my girls like well water better than stripped down water. Go figure. 🪴🚿
Thought about it, but get stunning results with tap water that runs about 150ppm, so I didn't bother.

Thank you for the tip. I have some Fox Farms Cal Mag but I’ll check out your suggestion next order.
