What about water quality? Beginner question

[Ari]

I have a difficult situation with our water supply. We live rurally and have our own well. The water from the well is hard. It likely is high in magnesium and calcium. It tastes fine and doesn't have anything like iron in it.

All of our water is softened, even the spigots outside the house. There is one spigot where we can get water directly from the well.

I'm just guessing but our softening would have trace amounts of salt, NaCl. Our untreated well water is hard.

I have made the decision that it's better to give the orchids the well water rather than the softened water. It would be much more convenient to use our tap water but I'll lug gallon jugs from the basement to get the straight well water.

If people think water is a big enough issue, I can also purchase spring water from the store.

Thank you for your kind reply.
