watering my phal with softened water.. Female
Default watering my phal with softened water..

I have decided to start over with phals.. I have killed god knows have many from overwatering and potting media and underwatering and mounting.. I got a phal and put her in bark media in a Terra cotta orchid pot and put in one of those water sensors right up next to the base of the plant.. I have just had a water softener (salt-based) installed, as my water was hard and full of chlorine (also another killing factor).. I have been told there is 1-2% salt in a gallon of softened water.. will this hurt the phal, as I know they are very salt intolerant..?? i am trying not to kill one this time..
