Can i use arrowhead spring water

My classroom used store brought spring water with carrots at room temperature.

Honestly, they're pretty fragile, especially early on. I don't know what kinds of minerals are in Arrowhead, but I think it's worth it to go to the grocery store and get actual distilled water.

I think so. I once talked to a customer who grew Triops using just plain spring water, and it worked fine. What you might want to do is try both: one in one container and one in the other, and see how it works out. Sometimes, you get some 'fairy shrimp' or something that's mixed in with the Triops, but they are soon eaten by said Triops. If both water solutions work, it could be that you might see more eggs hatch with the distilled water than the spring water, since it more accurately mimics the rainwater conditions Triops are adapted to.

Yes, spring water is fine. Even though the directions say to use distilled water, some people have had better results with spring water.

Sorry I am not sure. You should be able too. If you drink the water it soaks in to make sure and get the most out of it

I would highly recommend the AquaLiv water filtration system. It goes way beyond just filtering out impurities in the water. It makes the water into the same composition as natural spring water and tastes absolutely great...no other water system compares...I have researched for a long time. http://www.aqualiv.com/-Dan

woops....if this is your first time using a hydro pen, then you might want to notify the company. I understand they are fairly good about customer service. I looked for my info, but can't find it. Most sticks/pens of this alkalizing sort will tell you to not use tap water, but filtered or bottled instead. Most tell you to put in 12-16 and shake often and let sit for at least an hour for best ph. for health. some say do not let sit overnight in water because the ph will be too much. others say not to let it dry out for the minerals inside will loose thier potency. so, as you can see, try the company first. Look for the seller on your amazon account and e-mail him. In the meantime you might want to go to a u-tube video and look under the company's name and hydro pen or ph stick. good luck to you. for many of us, these sticks really do work for detoxing the body, and getting the intestines cleansed. I will keep looking for my paper that came with mine.

Oh I don't think I'd use it for wild water. I'd carry along purifier tablets for that and then AFTER you've purified the water, put the water in the CamelBak. Try this, or something like it. Potable Aqua Water Treatment Tablets

It rd directly into your pipes. You can use it anytime of year. The roots seem to cause us the most problems in the spring when the water table rises. We have bad root problems and use roots every 2 or 3 years.

I have used it when I'm in a rush and my boiled water has run out. So, yes, you can. I believe that it's recommended to use distilled water.

We only use distilled water. Do not know if regular tap water will work... we are on a well and might be too hard for the machine.

No but water comes out quite slowly and on spring so can't be left running, a lot better than a young child tipping a kettle full of boiling water over them selves.I know which I feel safer with.

I'm not sure if you have to but, to extend the life of the iron, I use bottled water due to the fact that we have hard well water.

You sure can. I own 3 of these and fill all of them with tap water. No problems :)

the company advises you to use non-chlorinated water. i only use spring water. Perhaps filtered water, but you it might also need to be fluoride free

Wouldn't work for me on spring water because the shaft was frozen when I got it and it took months to get my money refunded! I haven't bought from Amazon since. Suggest you go to Harbor Freight and buy a pump that works!

There are directions, but there are many ways you can adapt it for your own personal use. I use it as an inline with my platypus bag when I run out of water on a long hike I can fill it up with water I fine along the way and just drink it. Then I also use it as a dirty water to clean water filter from one bag to another bag when I'm at camp.

You can definitely use this as a gravity drip filter. I went on a 3 day backpacking trip and I had it attached to a bladder and I would fill my bladder with water, pull off the end where I would suck the water from and very quickly use it to fill up my fellow hikers bladders that didn't have this filter. It was great for filling the pots for cooking. It is much faster then the older pump filters. I would highly recommend this system.

Sorry, no. The water is discharged waste and all. It is a great tool though!
