\"Rainshow'r
\nWith Spring on its way, many are getting ready to cultivate their home gardens. Homegrown fruits and vegetables are often less expensive and healthier than their store-bought counterparts, as they are usually not grown with the same harmful pesticides and chemicals.
\nBut this attempt at a more organic and healthier approach to gardening can be counterintuitive if you are still watering your garden with your garden hose. The chlorine found in your home\u2019s water can be considered a toxic substance when it is used to water your garden, as chlorine reacts negatively with many natural compounds.
\nThe Rainshow’r Gard’n Gro Garden Filter System<\/a> is a completely non-toxic de-chlorinator that promotes healthy plant nutrition and growth in your garden by eliminating the harsh toxic effects of chlorinated water. The Gard\u2019n Gro <\/a>system attaches to your spigot and removes 85% of the chlorine from your garden hose water. It also preserves helpful microorganisms found in the soil, and will not harm ladybugs, lacewings and other beneficial nematodes that naturally ward off pest populations.
\nIf you are into hydroponic gardening, consider the Rainshow\u2019r Green Knight Hydroponic Dechlorinator<\/a>, which promotes hydroponic plant growth by removing the toxic effects of chlorine from garden hose water by using Quartz crystals to aid plants in the absorption of nutrients. Like the Gard\u2019n Gro<\/a>, it screws directly onto your garden hose and removes 85-90 percent of Free Available Chlorine (FAC).
