    the true power of rain water

    erm it could be shes reachin to the sky cause the lights were put further away from her

    rain water aint gonna make ur plant reach up the light is

    Though the rain water is excellent for the plants. Did you collect it in buckets set outside or somethin? wish I had a good way to get it other than from the gutters of the house and lettin it funnel into a bucket

    Right now tho is the time for that kinda stuff since you can just pick up piles of snow in ur buckets let it melt in the house and water em once its room temp :thumbsup:

    the true power of rain water

    Rain water didn't do anything more then not cause more problems for you. Water is not a magic element in that a certain kind is more magical then another kind. High quality water is not an improvement to plants, it's a requirement of plants. The plant assumes that it's water source will be pure and clean, it does not assume it's water source will be bad and contaminated.

    That seems like a really narrow view. If you thing rainwater is just H and O think again. I would say dust, volcanic activity or many variables could make your rainwater really tasty to your plants. If it works go for it.

    I would like to see someone do a test with two similar clones and see if it actually has any benefits over tap water.
    Think of your buds like chocolate chip cookies: some people like em crunchy and some people like em chewy. Personally, I want them tanned golden brown but not crispy....and no one likes cold raw dough in the middle of their cookie.

    the true power of rain water

    i would imagine it would be better unless you have well water and that is just rain water from the ground... my water has a clean taste and people buy water in bottles all over the country from this aquafer... but rain would prob have less trace minerals... get a good deep well IMHO is the best other than RO water. but with RO i would have to worry about trace shat thats already in what i got...
    and i only say that for soil grows not hydro... i dont know shat bout hydro
