Hi GG,

I think I found my solution...

I took some "snow water" and tested it. After it melted, of course, LOL. It's GH is a profound Zero.

And I tasted it, being the nutcase I am, I wanted to make sure there were no detectable impurities, anyway. Tasted like bottled water, to me.

So it looks like treated tap water and snow water is going to win...

Until another month or so, when we finally start getting unfrozen precipitation again.

-Nancy.

Hey Nancy,

Was thinking about testing the snow here for the same reason!!! (When Da Unc asked me about collecting rainwater, I thought, "Sure, in about 4 more months or so".)

I live pretty close to a city that has been redflagged for air quality from time to time, so I don't know if that will be an option.

I'll give it a shot though since you won't think I'm a crackpot at least.
