Thoughts on feeding water staight from the tap not...

I don't let the water for my current outdoor grow sit and it seems to be doing just as well or better than my first grow where I usually did let it sit - but from the hose it's right around pH of 7 so I correct that down, especially if I am giving nutrients. This is anticdotal and I'm sure there's strains that may be more finicky so just try it and if you git issues go back to what was working?

Carbon filter won't filter certain biological containments either... Read your water report... a lot of municipalities in north America provide information on the water.

Just depends on your water supply... Right now they are adding extra Chlorine to the system because of Spring run off. But generally speaking 90% of people growing in Gardens don't "filter" their tap water... PPM or ec is not actually a good measurement of water quality at all.. The only real way to know is by reading local water reports or by doing tests on the water the yourself( really impractical). Little old ladies and grandpa growing big gardens don't worry about EC or Ph in their gardens... Funny how we seem to like ignore the garden community.

You can get a Carbon filter for your garden hose off sites like amazon or even local hydro stores.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CCG9DF5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This is the one I use for my indoor and outdoor watering.. And it's straight from the hose.. Don't let it sit or anything.. Hope this helps my friend.. p.s. you can also use an air stone and bubble the contaminates out a lot faster also.. but damn if the filter ain't a hell of a lot easier.. 👊
