leave out buckets with tap water and pH it, if its too high(mine comes out 6.9 but i like 6.3-6.7 usually) so you can get pH down or lemon juice to lower it. leave it out for a day or two to get out the chlorine, boiling it or leaving it in the sun is a good idea. if shes almost dry just use spring water or distilled. i got home a few days ago but its been pouring everyday.Haven't had any rain here. they said it was goin to but never did my weather man is pretty much unreliable as fuck.
Nice advice, when it was raining in my area I had a clogged rain gutter that would flow heavily off the side. So I put a trash can under it and saved it, LOL. Should have been cleaned out but instead i used the clogged gutter to my advantage. After the rain, I just filled it up with city water (eww) and I had a pump laying around that I put at the bottom of the trash can to help circulate the water and I'd let it sit for a few days before using it because I didn't want the chlorides killing my mychorizaeleave out buckets with tap water and pH it, if its too high(mine comes out 6.9 but i like 6.3-6.7 usually) so you can get pH down or lemon juice to lower it. leave it out for a day or two to get out the chlorine, boiling it or leaving it in the sun is a good idea. if shes almost dry just use spring water or distilled. i got home a few days ago but its been pouring everyday.
haha i do the same thing, just stick the buckets under gutters. i keep out lots of buckets but if i add any tap water i wait and then pH, if its in the sun i think its better too.Nice advice, when it was raining in my area I had a clogged rain gutter that would flow heavily off the side.
