Best Water For Shotgun Fruiting Chamber
    #16581364 - 07/24/12 07:49 PM (10 months, 19 days ago)

I intend to build a shotgun fruiting chamber with perlite.  Most tek's talk about using tap water. I have well water and my water is somewhat acidic and goes through a filter to remove iron and add PH Plus to make the water more alkaline (not a water softener).

Should I use this alkaline hard water? I was wondering whether I should boil the well water to sterilize it or add some Hydrogen Peroxide or bleach to it. I could use distilled water if necessary.

Tap.

Boiling won't change the alkalinity. Do NOT add chemicals.

You make it all possible. Doesn't it feel good?
