Should I filter my tap water?
rhodes68answered grow question 5 years ago
Technically the purer the water the better but there is a point where the return on investment begins to die off.
If you can drink it fine so can the plant, that is the crux if it.
But just like you, the cleaner the better.
Now you will end up adding Silicon anyway so use tap, RO, rain water, long as you wouldnt mind drinking it its fine.

Salut le jardinier ! déjà si tu laisse reposer 24h tu te débarrasse du chlore alors c'est déjà un début de filtrage . ne t’embête pas a filtrer si ton eau est douce tu dois avoir du chlore et quelques trucs comme du calcium et du magnésium mais en petites quantités. en même temps si tu peux filtrer pourquoi pas . bonne chance a toi bella ciao

Best if you have osmosis water and mix the stale water for 24 hours (after 24 hours the chlorine has evaporated somewhat) to an Ec value of 0.2. Then add Cal / Mag until the Ec is 0.4. This is your source of water ;-)

Don't worry about it. Plants will thrive with or without filtered water. You can try magnetically treating your water. That is a completely different ball game ;) check my diaries and wait till the harvest comes

We have decalcification machine. Should I add Calmag right from the start? How much? (Autoflower in mostly Biobizz Allmix)We have a decalcification machine (natrium based), so I have low magnesium/calcium. People say my soil is low in cal/mag. Should I add Biobizz Calmag on my first watering?(50% of recommendation for autos?) This one looks already droopy, doesn't it? Think I need to water soon.

Questions about wateringI created a 40 ml solution, the instructions say to transplant after the sprout has grown to the top of the plastic cover and the roots are visible through the plug. The question is, is 40 ml of liquid enough for this growth? I think not.
