Who's tap water? Your neighbor's, on the same well/watermain?

Get your water analyzed, so you can get good info from someone who has similar. "Tap" water is a *huge* variable.

Sure, and if your tap water is inappropriate, you're not going to get the response you want. When using tap water, you want to know what's in it and get advice from people who A: Have very similar tap water & B: Know how to grow with it properly. Cannabis does not behave like cucumbers and strawberries. ;) Just an FYI.

1 US tsp is 4.92892ml, which is the same as 4.92892cc.

i loved earth juice and simply started with the lightest feeding and made sure there is no chlorine/chloramine in the water

I also would bubble grow/bloom using catalyst and feed when the ph is in the proper window

did not like using it without that prepatory step ty very much to mr jiggywhompus

After I finish a gallon of milk I reuse the container.
Rinse it out, obviously, fill w/ water and let sit w/ the cap off for a few days. Most/all unwanted stuff will evaporate.

Most, but not chloramine which will kill the microorganisms necessary for the EJ to work well. If you're buying tap water, go to your water company's website and they are required by law to provide a water analysis. There are several ways to remove it. Research it. Good luck. -granger

I've never experienced problems using tap water after it sits for 2+ days.
If you're that concerned or you know you have particularly poor water then buy a filter.

Chlorine isn't going to hurt a darn thing in soil. Hydro is another thing. Chlorine is in fish ferts, it's a natural element.

Totally depends on the minerals that the water comes from. Could be high sulfur, could be high lime. Our muni water is about 8 ph and high lime, but not terrible. Too much mineral clntent for hydro but I don't care much for hydro...too much mixing, ph stablizing, cooling, heating, draining, filling, flushing, ect, ect, ect.
