Hi all I moved house and the tap water is brown when left sittin is this hood or bad for me and my plants ? It has been sorced from themountain I live on then put throw a filter ,I think it's peat
If you have the funds, look into a RO/deionizer filter. Use it for drinking water (for you and your garden). Brown water can mean bad contamination... It might still be safe, but why risk it when you have BROWN stuff in the water (bear/rabbit/deer poo is brown..)
Yeah i would recommend at least buying a filter or going to one of those reverse osmosis water fill up things they have outside of grocery stores and other places. it's like 25 cents to fill up a gallon, and the process kills most bacteria and everything in the water. plus, alot of city water has been found to have traces of flouride and a bunch of other weird chemicals, like prozac and shit. i don't trust it, haha especially if it's coming out brown
