    No,can you collect it rain if not,we can put tap water in a watering can and stand for 24 hours .We do this with Ericacious trees, plants and find it works

    I think I'm correct in saying that leaving water to stand will allow chlorine in the water to dissipate, but it cannot affect the calcium content of the water.

    I collect rainwater...your tip of standing tap water for 24 hours before use is a gud back up...it apparently removes the chlorine from the tap water...🙂...
