RO filtering does the same thing, right?
That's what I'm trying to understand. Distilled is depicted as being different somehow. But, so far I don't understand how. RO water filters away vital nutrients. Maybe not as well as distillation. Distilled might get down to 2-5ppm where RO gets down to 10-20. But, either require supplementation.
why are you worried about PPM's?
distilled is through steam extraction..RO is through filters.
i can tell you are new..don't spend any money on your plants other than the basics..order online after thorough research what will work with your current set-up; stay away from hydro.
everyone in this biz and their brother wants to sell you something to make your plants better..guess what? the plants have been growing on this earth since time began (7,000 years ago for some)

~increase yield easily, like a pro..just bend over cola in mid veg while she's thirty and pliable affix with soil staple (home depot) or zip tie.
