Us DWC water heads know how much water a plant can drink in a single day. I assume many are like me and have extra buckets of water sitting around letting the chlorine evaporate, unless you have an RO system.
But what if your water company switches to Chloromine? It's my understanding that it will not evaporate out. Or what if you don't have room to have an extra 15 or 20 gallons of water sitting around in the way?
My thoughts as I the day away. Way back when... a long time ago, I used to do aquarium maint. We would pull tap water, treat it with a squirt from a bottle, and pour it into the tanks. Never lost a fish due to bad water. Hmmmm. A dig through wiki and my memory is restored. We used Stress Coat, which claimed to remove ammonia, chlorine and chloromine instantly. Makes sense due to chloromine being derived from ammonia.
Next grow I'm going to do a side by side comparison of treated water straight from the tap vs untreated water that has sat out. For a few dollars a bottle, if it works and I don't have to dodge the four extra buckets in the floor... well, what can I say, I'm a lazy grower.
