    RO contains no impurities, but some people argue that tap water contains the trace elements the plant needs. If its ph'd and dechlorinated. See what norcal says

    idk man.. you know what is in the water exactly.

    all i know is i was using tap water and getting ok yeild, but once i switched i noticed a maybe 20% increase. and it seemed they just grew all around healthier.

    A lot of tap waters are treated with Chloramines , I have read RO is a good way to get rid of it. It can stay in the water longer than 24 hours of sitting out . Using chemical dechlorinators will break it up, but it leaves the ammonia in the water still. (Chloramines are Chlorine/hydrogen/ammonia). I have also read when using RO water extra cal/mag is often required to replace the elements the plants would normally get from regular water. If your county/municapality has a website you should be able to find out what your water is treated with. My guess is its less if you live in an area that has ok water to begin with and more in big cities. chorine/choramine can block your plants calcium intake.
    I am just passing on what I have read in case it interests you.

    yup cal/mag and a potassium silicate needs to be added to RO water to make it a water solution to be used every watering and is ready to have extra nutes added also such as grow or bloom ferts.

    what about the difference between ph'd and non ph'd water from a tap?
