purified water

I recently had an issue with a nute deficiency followed by nute burn and seeing as I don't know the content of the tap water I was using, I bought some deionized water, used that for a couple of days while it recovered, then went to bottled water with minerals in it. gonna keep some around in the future for these situations :)
 
im in england and tesco doesn't do distilled water so the i had to get deionized from the car section. it's just water, with no minerals/nutrients so use when you have overfed and need to cleanse the plants :)

I'm also in England and my tap water has an EC of 0.5 (very high)
so I collect rain water and mix it with tap water.

If you're using absolutely pure water you NEED to add calcium and magnesium
CalMag
 
I only used that for when they were overnuted but now I'm using well spring water that has the nutrients in it. seems to be working well :)
