Re: H2O ph for my Siam Ruby?
Thank you NanaMan. I have been worried about the chlorine and flouride effects on my plants. That's why I filter. I'd heard increasing reports of the harmful effects of flouride on delicate plants turning the leaves yellow or brown. And have read here with interest about the microbes that roots require for healthy growth which I must be killing off with chlorine. Of course, their's no guarantee that the distilled water is free of these chemicals. There are so many reports of bottled water being just plain tap water. And of course they don't want bacteria growing in their product as it sits in warehouses and on the shelves, so it would be logical that they may use chlorine. I originally got the distilled water for my bladderwort, but think I will start filtering it as well. Or just leave it out and open for 24 hours prior to use to let the harmful chemicals, if any, evaporate.
