ya man i figured i was just already on the post so i figured id broaden the info. not tryna step on your toes, you had the right info
EDIT: but chlorine and chloramine that are in small amoumts but present every time you water WILL kill your plants, its not a once and done thing but by week 6 of chlorinated water your plants biological structer will start to unravel. chlorine eats away at plant tissue as well as kills all your micro beneficial bacteria that are supplying your root structure with oxygen as well as breaking down nutrients into more disolvable pieces
such as me haha. im a new grower but i dont use any nutes just lights and mine are doing great.plenty of growers just use water straight from the tap and have no problems.so its very unlikely tap water will kill your plants.

good call man. i was just saying, despite the claims people make. my tap water here is around 8.8 some days and 7.5 others.. lol. other than having to balance it, it works, and my plants grow.
ive also adjusted them ph lvls to 6.3 so now all is well
3 gallons of water
1 with no nutes distilled
1 with nutes distilled 2-1-4 i belive, 1/2 strength will bump up soon
and my back up water tap, been by the window open for bout 2 days
all ph levels are within 6.2-6.5
and for my older plant i just transplanted with fox farms ocean forest
