      Howdy TWIZZrx, Distilled water will, most likely, have a lesser amount of dissolved solids in it than bottled water. In some brands of bottled water, there are "..minerals added for taste..". With either one, One will have to replace some of the minerals removed (CALiMAGic, etc..), that is one of the reasons that I use the tap water for my plants. My city water has a good amount of minerals in it (about half of the city's water comes from well fields) and I have not needed to supplement it, also, I;m extremely cheap! LOL!!

        Filtered water is better than distilled - cuz - you can pH filtered water. "The pH of pure distilled water is very unstable and has no buffering ability. The addition of a tiny amount of an acid makes it very acidic and a small amount of a base makes makes it alkaline. " so says Ed Rosenthal.
