For the past 16 days I've watered two Irish ivy cuttings; one with water brought to a hard boil in a 500W microwave and one with water brought to a hard boil on an electric stove top. A glass container was used for both. Each plant was planted in the same size and type pot with Scotts metro mix 200 growing media. Each was watered once every 3 days with 1/4 cup from identical storage containers. This was/is a blind study as I still don't know which plant is getting which water. As of day 16 both plants are doing equally well. I have not been able to repeat the results of the science project reported on the silver-list. I'm wondering if anyone else has tried to replicate the original findings.
