bobskie Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 Hi everyone I was wondering about chlorine in tap water. My tap water has a TDS of 44 so it should be safe to use for my VFT but I was wondering if the chlorine in the water is taken into account in this reading or if the chlorine would still be harmful to the plant. Thanks everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoLongFairWell Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 If you're concerned about chlorine then depending on the number of plants you have you could let the water stand in a bucket for 24 hours so the chlorine can evaporate (it's a gas). If there's chloramine in your water though then that's a different story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it OK for the plant to receive a bit of chlorine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
