Re: How to get suitable water??
If you have time, try to call the makers of bottled water in your area and ask if the water is pure reverse osmisis water without mineral or not. Also ask for pH of water. You want pure water, no mineral added, and hopefully pH of 6 to 7, higher than that, it is alkaline might not be good for plants.
I however agree, I think better that you start your plants to get used to your tap water. However for me I keep tap water at least 1 day in a bottle, then use it. I even put aeration (airpump for aquarium), just an experiment.
Rainwater is still best, free and good for plants, Lucky for me have lots of rain here now.
As for Aircon water, actually it is true that aircon water is almost like rain water, the problem is that they collect on the aircon pan and that is where bacteria and dirt start to thrive. Also I wonder about some metal contaminants that might get mixed in with aircon water.
Good luck!
