I heard before that if you want to take out something that the plants don't need all you do is fill a gallon of water or any type of water container and take the cap off and let it sit over night to evaporate something in the water. Is this necessary? :rastasmoke:
If there is something dissolved in the H2o, it will remain in the H2O after the water has evaporated.
ex. fill a container with salt water and boil off the water. You will be left with a pot of salt.
You're thinking of chlorine.
Don't worry about it. Your tap water has to be REALLY REALLY REALLY bad to have to dechlorinate it before use. Like, undrinkable bad.
Thanks re: siggy btw!
i live right up against a mountain. First to taste the stream:jointsmile:Quote:

oh and yeah for shure on the siggy. was it you that said you added molasses to your plant water? if so how much per gallon? what kind of molasses?
Unsulfured Grandma's molasses, the plain grocery store kind. As long as it says unsulfured on the bottle, you're fine.
One glob per gallon. You will see when you try to pour it out how big a glob is, lol.
a glob:wtf: like turn the container over and wait until a fatty ball drips out? thanks man. what does it do for the plant? does it dissolve in the water? can i use this kind of water on clones?Quote:

For the plant= cheap, safe source of carbon for making more resins and aromatics.
Dissolve in water= yes, use slightly warm water to dissolve it faster
Clones= nope, clones need plain pH adjusted water with no nutes.

What are you cloning in?
An aero, bubble, or other hydro style cloner should be set to a pH for hydro (5.8 should work fine).
Rapidrooters come pre-moistened and you will just be misting the underside of the humidity dome with tap water, and misting the clones if they appear wilty. If the plugs appear a bit dry, tap water is fine for them. I LOVE those things, love love love, can't say it enough. *SMOOCHES* for whoever invented them. Seriously.
i put my water in a 1-liter container overnight to evap any chlorine, bromine, etc that wont really harm the plant, but is also not gonna help
