How can fruits and vegtables be organic if the water used to hydrate them is not?
So>>IntoTheBlue>>> asked:
Please tell me where this organic water comes from?
The air is polluted as well as the lakes streams and oceans. so how do you figure rain is not polluted?

Isn’t water organic? It wouldn’t be if you added stuff to it but then it would be considered liquid fertilizer. dadnbob

I’m pretty sure all water is organic. Last time I checked you don’t need to grow water. Scott

Every one is hung up on the buzz word “organic” -You should define the word. George

to be ‘organic’, water must be pure…. nothing whatsoever in it… no chlorine or floride from tap water, no minerals from spring water, no metals from well water…. the only water that is organically pure is distilled water….
the air and RAIN is how the nitrogen that makes plants grow gets out of the atmosphere and into the soil… so distilled water will not help a plant grow other than providing ‘wet’….
rain, even with the acid rain problems and pollution problems , is still the best water for our plants…..and rain, washing the pollutants out of the air,keeps US and the plants breathing better, too
water vapor that rises from lakes and oceans leaves the pollutants behind… the only pollutants associated with rain then, is what it picks up on the way down as rain….
things like smoke and dust from fires and volcanos have been washed out of the atmosphere by rain for bunches of years… it’s how stuff got started here… so it’s “ORGANIC” for sure…. meanolmaw

As far as your second or third thought.
Who said rain is not polluted? We are told not to catch snowflakes on our tongue cause they are polluted!
Rain picks up foreign matter from the air that is polluted
Lakes & streams are polluted, but not as bad as oceans
Lakes & streams are “fresh” water, organic water
Oceans are salt water, saline or briney. Salt water causes dehydration, while “fresh” water prevents it. bkstgzillgod
