My water rates at less than 1mg/liter. The regulations state that it can't be allowed over 1.2 approximately, so I definitely don't have excessive amounts, and thankfully no chloramine.
What I want to know is; How deadly is this chlorine to the micro herd? What microbes are most vulnerable to this chlorine? If you had to guesstimate how many of your micro herd die in your soil if you use water straight from the tap, what sort of percentages would we be looking at? Would 20% of the micro herd die from a thorough watering? 40%? 80%? 100%? Just how deadly is the stuff?
For the record I now keep my water in a jug and let it sit for a day or two before I use it, but earlier in my grow I used it a lot straight from the tap. How big a difference will I see from this?
