   Curious to know if anyone is using/experimenting with desalinated seawater as a nutrient source for greens.

   Tony, RO strips most everything from water. Here is seawater through RO
   
   EC = .675 mmhos / cm or dS / m Not a good nutrient source.
   
   
   Ionic S ds = 0,0087
   Sample # & Name Log I s = -2,0605
   meq/lt ppm Log2HCO3= -0,963787827
   Sodium 4,65 106,95 Log ( X ) = 0,61
   Potassium 0,154 6,01 Bridge1 = 1,83613492
   Calcium 0,4 8,02 Bridge2= 1,83613492
   Magnesium 0,99 12,04 Ca x = 0,726840344

   Yes...and then you have the Nutrient Control However, it's counter productive for Paspalum to remove sodium.

   Tony, when I saw your original question I was confused. I thought you must have been running your intake all the way up to Churchill
