I agree. Look at hydroponics.
The most important aspect of your water is it's Ph.

One would have to know that the Chem heads and hard core hippies would have their opinions. :hug: And to the others it's just to hard to understand. :clap:
 
True tws, the online world is just a tad bit annoying to me because you have these people that talk cash sh/+ and lurk arond the fourms to find a thread that has movement so they can flap their gums....they dont read any of the post and just start yappin..ive been readin these pages for years and seen it on almost every thread....i hope one day the make computerss where you can reach thru and smack a b/+ch with a matrix hand...jeff has a 32 gb card with argument comeback videos on tapb...alice "dont come around here no more,",all the willy wonka songs, and destinys child "i dont want no scrub" that he plays when he cleans his hydroton....lol...you have way too much time on your hands if your searching for videos like that...

In DWC, my 110ppm tap water kills Aquashield and I get slimed. If I treat it with tap water conditioner for aquariums, the Aquashield does not die and I don't get slimed.

Tea brewed 48 hours with mycogrow soluble, ancient forest, and molasses doesn't seem too bothered by my tap water... but I just prefer to dechlorinate and use Aquashield.

Also synthetic nutes don't kill bennies.

I used tap water in my DWC but dechlored as well, all so used the Bennies to prevent slime.
