watering

I'm going to say yes, to a point. I've recently collected rainwater and am giving it to a plant in a red, 18 ounce cup. Rain is so rare around here that I collected a little over two and a half gallons. Two are in my freezer. The plant cup sits in a similar color and sized cup. I catch the runoff and pour it back over the plant. I'll do that a time or two until the soil is nice and soaked. Any leftover goes in my bigger plants. Same-same with the bigger plants except with nutes. They are on an elevated platform. Runoff is caught in a cup and poured back into the pot a few times. Whatever else goes to houseplants.
Mine is not a typical situation because I move my plants between sunlight and tent and are elevated in the sun. I'm only saying there's a use for immediate runoff if you can get it. It's also a good argument for having 'limited' access to fresh water, as I am.
Welcome tkrullers. Any pictures? What's your setup?

Negative Ghost Rider I am directing my comment
To the thread host, I really hope you don't think I make fun of you as it is not my intentions, and you are one of my favs.
You have a unique Pizzazz about you I find very enlightening every since the first snake oil comment.
 
About runoff water if you ever have left it standing for a few days you'll notice little larva under microscope and slight film ontop of the runoff catchment. I suck it up with a turkey baster the one with a bulb. Squeeze it into a cup toss it out.
