| softening water -- methods?
Thanks again, Cynthia, for the help on this. I will look up care instructions for the intergenerics per your suggestion.
Re: The water -- I think I do have mineral-rich water, because my (non-orchid) plants I'ave had for a while all have the white buildup on the outsides of their terra cotta pots. So I have looked around for info on water softness, but i haven't seen an answer to this question: Does a standard Brita or Pur water filter take care of it, or do I need to be doing something else. I remember something about not using deionized water, but what about just jugs of distilled water...? Brita would be ideal b/c cheapest, obviously...
Y'all are the best.
