What type of water should I add the contents of the PolySeed capsule to?

The PolySeed capsule must be added to BOD/nutrient water only. The BOD/nutrient water is used for ionic balance. The chemical balance inside each microbial cell in the PolySeed must be equal to the chemical balance in the water surrounding the cell. If the microbes in PolySeed were rehydrated in plain deionized water, the differential pressure between the water phase outside and inside the cells will cause the cells to lyse (explode/tear) within a few minutes.
