Building a compost pile!

I left the tarp off to catch some rain, but it still seems dry... I am thinking about using my well water, but the VA inspected my house and treated the well with Fluoride. I remember seeing it on the paperwork and questioning myself why they didnt use Chlorine? I have an RO filter, but it really does not keep up. I use it for drinking water mostly, makes great coffee!

that's sorta fucked that he treated your well water...
I have NO idea if fluoride is good or bad for plants.. its in a lot of water sources so it can't be too bad for them..
But still

My RO filter went out for a while, so I was putting the well water in my tea brewer and let it run overnight. Do you think that it could have been enough for the Fl to gas off? asking you chemistry questions now lol

shit.. I have no idea man, for chlorine, then yea.
but fluoride?
Hmm, it's slow at my shop let me do some readin on it
ok.. readin done.
here's an relevant excerpt
Defluoridation is needed when the naturally occurring fluoride level exceeds recommended limits. It can be accomplished by percolating water through granular beds of activated alumina, bone meal, bone char, or tricalcium phosphate; by coagulation with alum; or by precipitation with lime.[5]

Pitcher or faucet-mounted water filters do not alter fluoride; the more-expensive reverse osmosis filters remove 65–95% of fluoride, and distillation removes all fluoride

so get some bonemeal, hopefully fishbone meal would work.., and have your filter pump it through it, i'd recommend, mixing it with air at the same time.
Your RO system will clear it out too evidently
I honestly wouldn't worry about it man
