Stagnant Water..?

[gr3at]

Is it bad to let my water, prepared with nutirents, to sit for long periods of time? Should I slimply stir it or get a aquarium bubbler to mix it up when i water my plants or should I never let my water sit at all?

Yes.
When you add your nutrients, especially if you are using more than one type of fert at ta time in your mix, use it right away.

Hey Stink, do you have any kind of detailed opinion on best type of final flushing water?
Any difference between demin., seltzor, distilled or tap etc.??

[stinkyattic]

No reason not to use tap water if it was good enough to water with in the first place.
Selzter= bad= carbonic acid.
Dmin/Distilled/RO if you want to get all fancy....

I just figured reg. tap could potentially contain enough minerals to affect the taste...or something?IDK!:stoned:

So are you meaning to tell me you prepare water with your ferts ideally the same day of the watering ??:wtf: How long do you typically let your water sit for?

[stinkyattic]

I don't let my water sit at all, lol.
Not same day, same HOUR.
OUt of tap, into watering can, mix ferts, use immediately.
And yes, I am on city water. I grow in compost and you practically have to be TRYING to fuck it up!
