vapor distilled + electrolytes
ingredients: vapor distilled water + electrolytes (calcium chloride, magnesium chloride and potassium bicarbonite).

smartwater is inspired by the way mother nature makes water, known as the hydrologic cycle (you remember the ocean, cloud, raindrop diorama from fifth grade, right?) actually it's how we got our name too (hydro = water/ logic = smart).

Ok now can i use this on my plants???
if so is it benificial? does the calcium chloride, magnesium chloride and potassium bicarbonite help???

i would avoid anything with the term chloride in it.

just get some distilled water if you just need a jug, or buy empty jugs at and fill them at kingsoopers, they dispense reverse osmosis water that is very pure (usually around 15ppm). As part of your feeding add like 1 teaspoon of cal/mag per gallon(if that really) and your golden. Ph is usually pretty good to start as well, most nutes bring RO water in perfect plant range without needing modification.

try it out.. i've never tried it personally, but what can it hurt right.. if the plant starts looking different in a bad way stop using that water and go back to what you know works..

I'm currently trying it to see if it will fix my cal/mag problems on my bubblegum plants. They are in pretty bad shape and I've ruled out ALL other problems so I'm gonna give it a try and I'll let everyone know if I see any difference for the better(as it can't make em worst)

Just buy some some CalMag. Using expensive water to fix cal-mag problems seems like ultimately a waste. A small container of cal-mag is like 10 bucks and will make hundreds if not thousands of gallons of cal-mag'ed water.

smartwater sounds like most tap water.

Paying for tapwater doesnt sound very smart.

Don't use smart water. It drys your plant out. The leaves curl up and start to turn yellow. I feel its burning the plant from the inside out.
Natural spring water to flush the system

Do you water with 100% RO, or do you cut it with tap? My RO water doesn't seem to be very good for my plants, but it runs through an alkaline filter and comes out at about 50ppm and 8.5-9 pH
