Crap!! I started my soul with tap water back feb. wonder if this gave me some of my issues in the beginning. Or will continue to do that with new grows!?!?!?
This was a game changer for me, my tap water was killing the soil life due to the chlorination. Installed a RO system....holy S$&@ what a difference! I also use dehumidifier condensate water too.
Hey folks I have started a DBHBB grow journal - jump on board - we will be glad to have ya!

Thanks for bringing this up. I also use my Dehumidifier Water but treat it with Hydrogen Peroxide at least 7 days before use.
(to KILL any growing mold) Question anyone know the time it takes for Hyd Peroxide to break down. I ASSUME a week is long
enough but we all know what happens when we ASS U ME

I will still allow water to sit for 24hrs or more and will also aerate the water as well.

It does break down but there are many variables to how long it takes, exposure to light, agitation, catalysts..etc
Short answer...I don't know
If your concerned you could agitate it with a pump and air stone for 24 hours...would help dissipate any residual H2o2
I do use the condensate water with no additives. I drain it into a covered bucket and use when full.

Thanks, had not considered an Air stone (or 2 ). That can only help, Much appreciated
There are inline hose filters available, meant for filtering outside water for pools, etc. Many of them remove chlorine and chloramines. 
Search the 'bay for "garden filter chlorine". I used the yellow and orange one with the family sillouette in black, before I got my R/O.

Yes Indeed these are great. I have one for my garden spigot outside...can't make a active thermal compost pile without it!

nothing but tap water since I started 7 yrs ago.
most of the time it's aerated or at least sits a few days.

I usually fill two 5gal buckets and let them sit with airstone bubbles for a few days and I think that's good enough to evaporate the chlorine.

Chloramine water is useable for the kit. My first few kit grows had chloramine. But I noticed a definite improvement getting a KD85 and catalytic carbon filter specifically to remove the chloramine. No need for RO since my ppm is about 40. But the two stage filter with the catalytic carbon (different than activated carbon) is doing a great job. It's a much faster filter at about 2-3gal/min.

I need your kit in my life. All I care about is quality. I use as medicine for my ptsd, back and leg pain. How do I get my hands on your glorious kit?

Send Doc Bud a PM and he'll get you set up.
MF,..Doc will be along shortly to guide you in getting a 'kit'. Go get yourself a 3.8 cu. ft. bale of ProMix HP and 20-40 pounds of a very low 'K' Earthworm Castings . We use Wiggle Worm brand, which is 1-0-0....Any brand will work great as long as that last number is 0 or close to it OK! Cheers .
He can't yet Beaves,...he needs 50 posts. Doc will look after him ! cheers bud!
Doc I'm getting adequate trichs on this sour bubble day 50.

That looks like it might do the trick
