If using distilled water be sure to start a regime of unsulfured molasses from week 3 or 4 for calcium and magnesium. You can also use CalMag if you like but it's pretty much the same thing at 10x the cost...
EDIT: Oh wait, you are talking about the flush. Never mind...

If you let the water sit open or in an open container, it will vent the chlorine overnight. :thumbsup:
