I'm probably not cretified organic because my water district uses chlorine. I bubble it for outside and use a distilling and filtering machine by my house for indoor. I feel like a "shade-tree organic gardner", doing the best with the materials at hand.

My lifestyle is also relatively organic (heck next to my neighbor with a Hummer I'm a Buddist monk). I have no qualms with riding my bike to get RO water, I don't own a car, Alas, I may never own such an odious contraption as those fine metal boxes are defined at present.

Love and Peace. (and may we all learn to step lightly on the earth mother)
I agree 100%. Doing the best you can is what's important. Too many people throw up their hands and say if I can't be perfect then to hell with it.

You will get much better results from filtered, purified, osmosis water when doing organics, becasue even the slightest amount of chlorine will kill that mircrolife you worked so hard to establish.

If all you're worried about is chlorine then you don't need to go to all the trouble of reverse osmosis just to remove it.

And chlorine wont hurt your plants if it is an amount that is acceptable in drinking water. How do I know? I've got tap water that is treated with it and had no but to use it with my DWC grow. It smells like a damn swimming pool right from the faucet and I can't drink it without our filtration system.

Personally speaking I think as long as you can drink it...you can use it. Organics, well they are earth friendly and all that, but cmon it's water. Maybe start collecting rain water or drill a well.

osmosis removes more than just cholorine, i did an experiment and you could see the difference between the tap water plants and the osmosised water ones...

I like RO water because it is a blank slate. PH, chlorine, salt, little robots put there by government agencies (kidding about the robots).

Also my tap water is NASTY

Yes there is organic water, or so you could say. Water that been revitalized electrically and aerated through clockwise vortex churning will not only rid/lower levels of chlorine, iron, fluoride, organic matter, and etc, it will also stablize the oxygen in the water so that it is not aggressive thus not leaching nutrients from the soil/plants,

More of this research and the amazing wonders it encompasses has been done by Viktor Schauberger a forester who realized how disconnected humanity was from nature, and created technology that mimicked nature. Thus vortex churning of water is something he noticed rivers did to purify water at river bends. Research him if you're into organic gardening for he mentions further things you will not read in many books about how we should use copper tools instead since they do not rust and oxidize which creates an unstable electrical charge in the soil for germination and root growth.

P.S. do not use water that is hot and has been in contact with direct sunlight, especially if motionless. This water is extremely not suited for drinking or plant use, take this water and churn it clockwise which will create a suction vortex in the water which cools it and aerates as well. Make sure it is out of contact with direct light and is an a sphere like vessel ie) a ceramic egg, a barrel, etc Water reaches the deepest parts of the soil when colder than the soil thus aerating it brings it down to its anamoloy temperature of around 39 degrees this though takes an hour or so manually.
