I have a water softener because I live in an area with pretty hard water. The softener has a bypass valve so I can easily turn off the softener if I want to use the hard water instead. I posted pics of the hard water stats from my city’s website. These numbers are obviously without using the water softener. I was buying distilled water and using that on my plants but I’ve heard distilled water isn’t good to use. I’m no scientist. Looking at the numbers in the pics, can I safely use the unsoftened water if I let it sit out for 24 hours first? Should I do anything else to the water before using it, like adding anything? I have epsom salts and molasses if I need more calcium or magnesium.
