Types of Water to Use for Houseplants

Softened tap water can have too many salts in it that build up in the soil over time.  Meanwhile, rainwater could have some extra nitrates hiding inside it. TIP: Fill up your watering can for next time directly after watering your plants. After sitting out for 24 hours, the water dechlorinates and becomes room temperature…plants’ water of choice!
