Were your municipal water chlorinated enough to affect your
plants/lawn it wouldn't be potable.


Are not your plants growing in the ground, the same ground from where
your well water is derived... duh... if anything your well water is
far less nutrient rich than your surface soil.  double duh

For yoose who are all ascared of chemical fertilizer consider watering
your lawn from your septic tank.

 

 We have a well I drove with my Dad 36 years ago.  No Chlorine here by
mandate.  The water is sweet but we run it thru charcoal anyway.  If I
put in a new well like I was thinking to use the present one for garden
the original will be destroyed.  State mandate.  So no stinking chlorine
here.    BUT

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_chemicals_are_found_in_acid_rain

I have been doing various searches on different search engines, what a chore
to find something that actually relates to the chemical ingredients of rain
water. Here in the inner Northwest, I've been looking with no luck. Though I
suspect it is also acidic but we need the acid in our alkaline soil. We
don't get much rain in the desert, and irrigation via damed rivers and
stored in man-made lakes. I'd rather use the irrigation water than the city
water which is chlorinated.
