Wasn't sure where to post this thread, but I figured it comes under 'plant care'.
I noticed in my water report that the water supplied to my area has tested up to 112 ppm of Sodium. I'm cutting my tank water by 2/3rds with deionised water, so this number won't be as large in my tank, but still... it's got me thinking about what sort of level is acceptable for aquarium plants? I've also noticed that many of my house plants (watered with tap water) have burnt tips on their older growth.
I don't know how reliable this link is but apparently - "Most plants will typically suffer injury if sodium exceeds 70 milligrams per liter in water"
Thoughts?
