 | It shouldnt. Letting nute water just sit doesnt last too long. I dump it out after 3-4 days of sitting. | ||

| No, it becomes aerobic. Starts stinking. I wouldnt want to feed it to my plants. Aerating it helps, for a few extra days. | ||

| Like I said, I wouldnt keep it to long. Plain water or not, it can go bad. Putting an airstone in, and keeping in a cool dark place will make it last much longer than no airstone in a warm place. Smell the water before you use it, if it has some wierd smell chances are its anaerobic. | ||
