Question

Which makes a plant grow faster? Tap? or Bottled?

Answer 1

i say tap cause tap is more "natural" and has sometimes it has all that dirt which gives the plant more nutrient,

so i'd choose tap water

Answer 2

Tap water, because there is a greater chance that it contains more nitrogen. It's closer to the natural thing, Rain. Bottle water is processed. With things that are processed, there is greater chance that parts are lost. Minerals a lost and even things that are good. Processed things aren't always as good as there advertised. Not to mention, the plastic of the bottle releases poisons into the water.

Rain is even better. Natural is the best. When rain falls from the sky, it captures nitrogen in the air. That is why the grass always looks greener and plants look saturated, it's not an illusion but rather the affects of more nitrogen being obsorbed into the leaves.

If it's a thunderstorm and a lightning bolt hits the ground, it also charges the ground with nitrogen. Some Organic farmers have even develope a machine that shocks the ground, for the particular reason of improving plant growth.  

Just remember, Nitrogen is the Key,...just like how it's used in making Cars go fast. Same thing but also can be use to make plants grow fast too.

Answer 3

Funny you should ask. I am doing an experiment on this right now for a statistics class at my university. I'm using tap, distilled, and purified water to test the growth of lima beans. I read some other students' results from an experiment online that said this:

"We conclude that the three different types of water; pond, tap, and Brita, had no real effect on the growth rate, survival, or height on the bean plants. Although the turbidity of the waters was significantly different, the pH levels of the water were so close that they had no noticeable effect on the plants. When comparing the tallest plants, there is no true consistency in the waters’ relationship to the plants’ height." (source below). I'm going to see if I get the same results, so in a few weeks I'll look this up and post a comment to let you know! :o)

Answer 4

Wow, I didn't know it mattered. Its just water!
