I erased the part about not telling Buttercup about it. Wish I would have left it.

My water hardness is between 180-220 mg/ l. Depending which water source it comes from. We have more than one here.
I recieved an email from my county extension service. Just found it in my emails posted from about a week ago.
They must be busy. I sent the request for it over two months ago.
Nothing about individual readings of cal and mag which I also requested.

I have posted it before it doesn't tell you anything except how much lead , chlorine and fluoride it has. That's why I contacted the extension service.
I can certainly dig it up...
Mine is here if anyone wants to compare. Water hardness comes in as an average of 88mg/l.
AdaminCO had the same problem with his report. The water co was just showing it was safe to drink and showed lead and uranium, etc. Nothing about the stuff we want to know.

I'll dig around the University. Maybe they have something better.
They should, they're a university. Unless the governor cut funding for higher ed.
I'm no whiz when it comes to stuff like this but from I've been reading the last little while there's a relationship between water hardness and water alkalinity. The below article explains it nicely. I bolded the part that interests me the most.
I'm thinking if her water is that hard then her water is very alkaline as well unless it's treated before it gets to the toilet.
ALKALINITY VS WATER HARDNESS
Alkalinity and water hardness are fairly similar - essentially they both come from sources in nature. Water moves through rocks (and picks up minerals as it does so) on its way to rivers and lakes. When limestone and dolomite dissolve in water, one half of the molecule is calcium or magnesium (the "hardness") and the other half is the carbonate (the "alkalinity"). This means that the level of water hardness and alkalinity in a place will be very similar. However, they are very separate measurements, and have very different importance.

Are you recommending she stop using toilet water for her plants?

Yeah, she should probably use Brawndo. Brawndo’s got what plants crave. It’s got electrolytes.
Is that now on my must-see list? I had to Google that shit!
Thank you for the video double H. I'm beginning to see a pattern here that was unclear to me before...
