Some plants do benifit from salt in the water but you can experiment with distilled water for your plants.
distilled water kills the plant because this water is already dead water which has no minerals needed for the plant to grow. it already contains chemicals as it was being purified.
Tap water. Distilled water contains no salts and therefore no nutrition for the plant. In reality distilled water would not be able to be absorbed by osmosis into the root system of the plant - as osmosis relies on the differences in concentration of minerals dissolved in the water to work.
distilled If you are growing houseplants in soil, using distilled water will prevent the accumulation of calcium and other salts in the soil. However, if growing plant cuttings in water, tap water will work better.
Distilled.
No. Tap water or distilled water has no nutrients or minerals that a plant needs. If you leave a plant with just distilled water, it will effectively 'starve' love MeganX321 :)
it grows
Yes but dont use still water distilled is the best
they grow bigger in distilled!! i just did this project in school.
What term describes the condition of plant cells after being placed in distilled water?
I did this for my science fair and the plant given lemon juice grew more than the plant that was given distilled water. but dont know why it did grow more
Plants will grow well with distilled water, because of the absence of sodium and heavy metals. Because of the presence of heavy metals in the hard water causes the deficiency in iron, copper and zinc. Some type of purified water are free of minerals responsible for the formation of salt deposit build ups
