I found my local water quality report and the pluses are:
no chloramine
low ppm (38ppm of tds)

potential negatives:
Xylenes 10ppm
discharge from chemical factories

dalapon 200ppb
Dalapon is a colorless liquid with an acrid odor sold as sodium or magnesium salt.

ethylbenzene 700ppb
petroleum refinery byproduct

Can I use this water on my plants?

The farmers here seem to be ok with it but what do I know?

Neighbors? :weed: j/k Im coming from NYC tapwater which was supposed to be the best in the country but now Im in the sticks and Im buying distilled for my lil vegging plants. I can boil the water but I dont think that does anything to the contaminants. Sunlight also breaks it down but how long would I have to wait.

Couchlock do you say use it because you have the same stuff in your water?
