    Very glad the stress coat worked for you. Give it a good mix 15 minutes into the settle, just swish the jug a bit, and it will help the metals settle a bit better. For fertilizer, alternate with 75/25 distilled water and fertilizer drops. Add the fertilizer drops to the distilled water then mix with stress coat treatment that has already settled. From what I can gather this is about what my companion does for their Prayer Plant.

      My buddy claims the distilled water is a more gentle delivery for the fertilizer, since the roots are stressing already, and there's nothing loss because there is plenty mineral deposit from typical watering.

    2 months late for this video, but I have a freshwater planted aquarium, and I've never heard or seen mentioned in aquarium keeping communities that water conditioner could affect fertilizers. My tank is a 3-year-old walstad (use potting soil covered by a layer of aquarium substrate), and now that the soil is depleted I've been using liquid and tablet fertilizer along with Seachem Prime water conditioner and I have never seen any adverse reactions. From what I've also seen, aquarium water is also good for plants. I use the dirty water from cleaning my filters and tank water change to water the little piece of lawn outside my back door, and boy does the grass grow like crazy. That water has all the fish waste and a bunch of filtering microbes and other biomedia, so it does wonders to plants

    I am a retired old man aquarium hobbyist. I water my plants with aquarium water which is chlorine and chloramine free. I have city water so it is necessary to remove these chemicals because they are toxic to my fish. Your idea is great and stress-coat is a great product but with many aquariums it is a bit expensive for me to use. The main ingredient in all chorine-chloramine neutralizers is sodium Thiosulfate. I purchased a 5 Lbs. bag on line for around $35.00 and used half of it to make my own chorine-chloramine remover. It made enough to last me for decades and I still have enough left in the Crystal form to mix up that much again. Like any commercial chlorine remover you need to shake it up well before using it as the Sodium Thiosulfate tends to separate from sitting on the shelf. I keep mine in glass bottles so that I can see when it has been shaken up well. It is easy to make. Here is the recipe below. To make aquarium Dechlorinator mix 500 grams of Sodium Thiosulfate to a gallon of water. 1 drop will treat a gallon of water, 1 milileter will treat 10 gallons of water. One gallon of this mixture will treat up to 40,000 gallons of water.
    Pool Dechlorinator Sodium Thiosulfate Pentahydrate 5 lbs by Cesco Solutions - Premium Chlorine Neutralizer for Pools, Aquarium, Pond - Technical-Grade Chlorine Remover for Hot Tubs - Bulk Package
    4 tablespoons of Safe Power to 1500 ml of water will treat 14,400 gallons of water,
    The complete and concentrated conditioner for both fresh and salt water
    Removes chlorine Chloramine and ammonia
    Converts ammonia into a safe nontoxic form that is readily removed by the tank's Bio Filter
    May be used during Tank cycling to alleviate ammonia and nitrite toxicity; non acidic and will not impact pH nor will it over activate skimmers
    Safe is the dry version of prime and shares all of its advantages, however safe is even more concentrated

    As an aquarium enthusiast, I can confirm that stresscoat does not interfere with fertlizing. After all the fertilizing routines in heavy hightech aquariums require micros and macros added every day. It would be detrimental if it cancelled NPK added.
    Funny thing is I have API at hand, never considered using it in plants since I have mix RO water with tap. Will try it in though! It makes sense.

      Not only does rain dissolve and carry pollutants it passes through in the air on its way to earth, if you collect it off a roof or other similar surface it'll pick up all the nitrates, phosphates, bacteria etc. from the rotting moss, algae and bird and insect poo that's covering it. For most plants that shouldn't be a problem but it absolutely does contain 'minerals'. Whatever you do, don't drink it without boiling it first just in case!

    It definitely helps with aquarium plants, please keep in mind that use outside of aquariums falls under off-label use so don't go using it for food plants and I wouldn't use anything other than the dosing they put on the bottles: API Tap water conditioner dosing comes out to 3 drops per gallon of water. API Stress Coat conditioner dosing comes out to 10 drops (0.5mL) per gallon. Both of these remove chlorine, chloramine, and detoxify heavy metals from tap water.

    • @AquariumWizard
      @AquariumWizard 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Fertilizers that provide metals (think supplementing iron) will become chelated by the use of conditioners like this. Chelated metals from fertilizers will precipitate out of the water but will still be available in the soil.
      Don't trust chat GPT lol
      If you use a conditioner that says it removes/detoxifies ammonia, nitrite, or nitrate - you will absolutely remove the available nitrogen to the plant, reducing its fertilization. So avoid conditioner products with that wording/feature

      @@KatarinaS.​​⁠​⁠the dosage is flexible. According to the label of API stress coat it’s 5ml(1 tsp) per 10 gallon but can be used up to 10ml per 10 gallon which would benefit the fish even more. So let’s say we use 5ml(1 tsp) per 10 gallon. I use a 0.5 gallon pitcher most of the time, and my smallest measuring spoon is 1/4 tsp. I put my stress coat in a dropper bottle, using that dropper bottle to fill my 1/4 tsp measuring spoon I need 14 drops. 1/4 tsp is roughly 1.25ml, to get 0.5ml you’ll need 5.6 drops, round that up that’s 6 drops for half gallon(2 quarts) of water. There you go, use 6 to 12 drops for your 2 quarts of water. I use 6 drops.

    Good advice! Also, if you have a water softener, you will also be adding salt to the water. Although small amounts, it can build up in the soil of your plants. If you can't use rain or distilled water, at a minimum, try to get your water before it enters the water softener. This may not be possible in an apartment, but with most homes there is an outdoor faucet where the main water line comes into the home. This is usually before any water softener. Getting your water before the water softener will assure there is no extra salt in the water. If you will just put water in a bucket and let it set for a couple of days, a lot of the chlorine and fluoride will evaporate out of the water. The water conditioner is a good solution that is easy to use, but these other considerations can help too.

So I bought a trusty water meter and water conditioner. Had no bother at all with the calathea, so I bought some more easy going plants. I’m still having better results with the calathea, got to figure out the best spots for other plants.

The same as me, only drink distilled water for over 40 years! The so-believed "needed" minerals in tap water, or anything besides distilled for that matter, is dissolved stone...the same thing that creates stalactites and stalagmites in caves! Is there any possible way we could use THAT in our bodies?! We do though...in the form of bladder and kidney stones, and cataracts in our eyes. I'll pass on that, thank you! It was recently discovered that ONLY distilled water forms crystals (think snowflakes!) and they tested every water known to man! If you have ever owned and run a water distiller, in only one 24 hour run, the distiller is coated in a thick lawyer of minerals that must be soaked overnight in straight white vinegar to remove, and it comes off in sheets. I had this book about water, and it had a picture of a man standing next to a pile of dirt as tall as himself, and it said, "This is the amount of dirt and minerals your kidneys will have to deal with in a lifetime." ...not a very pleasant thought! I'm an expert on bought distilled water too, and I've found that Target brand distilled water is the very BEST! (And no, I do not work for Target!) Well, take this information seriously, as it's meant to be taken, and save your eyes, your kidneys and your bladder...and oh, your veins from hardening of the arteries! (I forgot to add that one!)

      In other words any acid or alkaline can dramatically change the ph. of your water. Having said that my water is like that naturally so although it comes out of the tap with a ph of 6.8 it naturally sits in my tank at 5.3 ph due to fish, plants, etc

My plants live year round on my balcony, and from what you’ve described I probably have to water them twice as often as they get near constant 80°F (26°C) and 80% humidity here. We moved in March and a month ago we got a dehumidifier to supplement the air conditioning in our new apartment, and I started saving the runoff water and using it for my plants. I think they’re even more healthy now. I might have to try this stress coat stuff come November when the humidity drops off here and my supply of dehumidifier water dwindles.

I pour approximately 4 times the amount needed for a gallon into the cap, then carefully fill up the cap with water. I pour a quarter of the liquid in the cap into each gallon when I fill up my watering can. This makes the measurement easier for me. Perhaps it will for you and your followers as well.

    Im in the aquarium hobby also, and the water conditioner do not so much with the nitrogen compounds (ammonia, nitrit, nitrate,...), it can help fishes to survive ammonia poisoning, but its not eliminate it. When chloramine is treated, it breaks down chlorine and ammonia, so it actually make ammonia but it is not that much anyway.
    Truly a great stuff :D

    Everybody listen up!!!!! I bought the tap water conditioner and not the STRESS COAT. I'd had new leaves on my Fiddle Leaf and then instantly after using the water conditioner, I lost several of my perfectly matured leaves. I'm going to purchase the STRESS COAT NOW. Just a cautionary tale and hoping to save this community some leaves and plants by using the Stress Coat, and not the water conditioner.
    Thanks and Happy Planting everyone!

    Thank you for the recommendation!
    I love how you are not one of these 'Look what I discovered!' but instead gave credit to the viewers who recommended the product.
    I remember the original video with the comments and made a mental note to myself, but quickly forgot to get some. I've been collecting rain water and have actually written down the name of the conditioner so I remember to get it. I won't have to store gallons of rain water in my garage anymore.
