Hi all,
I wouldn't particularly want to drink it. I'm definitely a hard, alkaline water fan <"
for drinking">.
In terms of use in the tank, it would make thinks easier, because of the <"
blank slate"> aspect and not having issues with high alkalinity effecting pH and <"
nutrient uptake">.
Another factor might be that those trace elements we usually ignore because they are "
always present" might not be present. We have an example of that in
@Hufsa's <"
manganese (Mn) deficiency symptoms">.
This means that you would need to add <"
all fourteen"> essential mineral nutrients for plant growth.
cheers Darrel
