I've read an hour is enough to dissipate the chlorine. This info is from various websites with info for making "compost tea" which is basically breeding the good bacteria to feed the mycorrhizae. I just pour tap water into a 5 gal. bucket and let it sit for an hour or so before I add the compost and molasses. It seemed to work. If I am watering I usually try and fill a bunch of 5 gal. buckets and let them sit for awhile (say, during lunch or while I mow the yard) and then water my plants after some time has passed. I'm not sure it is really necessary. I've heard that the chlorine dissipates almost as soon as the water comes in contact with air. Still, if you get the AquaSafe from the fish store it is pretty cheap and one drop treats 10 gallons.
