Is tap water ok for all plants? Would the app tell me specifically if I’m supposed to use some other type?

Calatheas are very sensitive to tap water. I’m not sure about other plants

I water everything with filtered water 🤷🏻‍♀️ I also live in an area with really hard water. It doesn’t take much extra time to filter it into gallon jugs, let it hit room temp and then water. I just think better safe than sorry. I think it just depends on a few different things.

What do you use to filter?

### letsfindjoy kommenterte den 2024-05-28

Yes it will tell you if it has a sensitivity to something on the plant/care info page

I make a gallon jug of plant water at a time and do a couple of drops of api tap water conditioner and this time of year 10ml of my cleankelp fertilizer.

Not all plants like tap water. A lot do well with it but the added chemicals can be harsh for some. Water with distilled. The app will tell you which plants have a lime sensitivity.

We get jugs of water at the grocery store because our water is terrible and I love all my plants too much to risk losing any of them. It costs about $3.00 a week
