I'm gonna give my ladies their weekly supply of nitrogen tomorrow I'm leaving the chlorine to evaporate out of the water it takes about 24 hrs in an uncovered container when using tap water,nitro is very important during the vegetive stage but I'm cutting back a bit cause its getting close to flowering time I'll ease back on the nitro each week and add a little bloomer which is high in potassium to prepare the ladies for flowering it won't make sense to newbie grower but trust me its a great technique I picked it up for my grandparents both of them have been growing before I was born and both of them are over 60 so their advice always pays off... :cheers:

Awesome grow Plago. Plants look nice and healthy.


ps - A lot of tap water also contains Chloramine, which can't be evaporated off, but is also harmful for bacteria, etc. I use my aquarium water treatment(chlorine/chloramine remover...just a drop or two) which breaks any strong chemical bonds as well.

Removing chloramines from water

Chloramines should be removed from water for dialysis, aquariums, hydroponic applications, and homebrewing beer. Chloramines can interfere with dialysis, can hurt aquatic animals, and can give homebrewed beer a medicinal taste by forming chlorophenols. In hydroponic applications, it will stunt the growth and fruit production of plants.[citation needed]
When a chemical or biological process that changes the chemistry of chloramines is used, it falls under reductive dechlorination. Other techniques use physical—not chemical—methods for removing chloramines. - Wikipedia

thanks bro I've been growing for 10 years now so cultivating herbs is like breathing to me but my question is if I leave the tap water in a bucket for 2 or 3 days won't the chlorine evaporate from the water ?thanks for the advice

these are some clones I took off my #Blue Mystc and #O.G Kush mother plants some are 14 days old and some I cut today I'm using the cheap dome method it works great for me the 14 days old just began rooting so I"ll remove the dome in a couple days a couple of hrs each day until I gradually leave them off completely
