looks ok to me, the only thing i would be worried about is the sodium levels.  But they seem pretty low.

Actually, Coca Cola is used by some gardeners for phosphorous. So I've heard.

some growers put it on their buds so they get super sticky and weight a bit more.

I remember my friend saying his weed smelled like coca cola and he squeezed the weed through the bag and a dark brown/black liquid came out.

Was pretty gnarly.

I don't know. I can't even find such a table for my tap water.

Does your water smell/taste chlorinated? If not, I don't think you need to let it sit for 48 hours.

it is, it's probably tossed in with the chloramines category.  I'm pretty sure all municipal tap water is cholorinated to remove any microbes or bacteria in the water.

I don't know your exact location, but i know your country :wink:

This article is 25 years old so it's definitely possible things have changed.  In fact your country may use ozone instead of chlorine.  However the netherlands, at least at one point, also chlorinated their water.

Chlorine is not allowed as primary disinfectant in tap water since 2005, in Holland. They use Ozone or UV.
My tap water is exactly the same water that is sold bottled in the supermarket next door.

yah, i figured as much, there was another article i found talking about alternatives to using chlorine in the water.  That's a pretty recent change though, wonder why i couldn't find anything about it.
