Watering with tap water
Sciolistic_Steveanswered grow question 2 years ago
tap water doesn't contain enough chlorine to cause a problem 99% of the time... so, culd be a lot of wasted effort.
the stones will help keep it agitated and prevent stagnation.
Also, if your local water uses "Chloramine" it does not evaporate quickly as chorine does. 24-48hours won't do anything in this context but waste your time.
Sunlight will break down chlroine VERY fast -- ask any pool owner. If it is chlorine, set it out on deck in sunlight for a few hours... probably enough. Again, chloamine you won't be able to get rid off without a filter of some sort.. probably an RO system to do it effectively.
my suggestion... take the easy path this time.. use straight tap and if you don't see any bonzing it's not hurting the plant in any way that matters much... indiscernable differences are not worth the effort.

Hi there
24 hours is sufficient.. failing that you can buy a neutraliser solution from Ecothrive for cheap and add 1 drip per Litre then you can use once mixed,
Best of luck š±

Not sure there IS a "too long" but the chlorine should be gone within 24 hours and the water useable - just make sure you adjust the pH before giving it to your plants.
Good luck!

Why they don't ramify?Hello everybody! These are my firsts plants, I don't understand why they don't ramify. It is caused by low lightning due to bad exposure? I don't see any other source of stress (good soil, volume ok, no dehydratation nor floodin, I just can't evaluate EC and PH at the moment)TNX
