I was talking to a coworker of mine who lives in the same town. He said that it it not good to water your plants with softened water and that he uses hard water instead. I'm really not knowledgeable as to how a water softener works except that I have to fill it with salt every now and then. Is it true I should be using hard water? I don't think any of my indoor faucets are plumbed to hard water.
