LC water TAP or DISTILLED
    #7548507 - 10/22/07 07:29 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

OK, i am not going to jump to any major conclusions, but im going to base this hypothesis on my experience of liquid culture.

Its simple, it seems as if i get carmelization with my tap water in my area and crystal clear LC when using store bought DI water.

The one time i did use DI water for my LC's it came out crystal clear, and now im back ending up with this yellowy stuff again.

Anyways, yellow or not it still works. I sterilize everything at the same time/setting as previous batch.

Anybody else think the extras in the tap water in my area have an effect or reaction with the sugar among PCing? Is this why i get a yellow instead of crystal clear LC.

Maybe i'll have to do an experiment myself.  :shrug:

Doubt it. tap should work just the same as distilled.

Same thing for me. I get a yellow tint that seems to remain through the life of the LC if I use tap water. Still have the same results of growth from tap and distilled water.

left is tap water.
right is distilled water.

depending on where you are, tap water tends to make LC's
cloudier and distilled tends to make them crystal clear.
these are both the exact same recipe.

I don't personally like cloudy LC's, so I use filtered or distilled water.
