Is water softener the same as salt?
There are many reasons for a water softener not to us salt. For example: - The water softener is bypassed (so no water going through it) or switched off. - The water softener is not metering water consumption properly. - The valve is jammed or broken. - There is an air leak in the brine draw mechanism. Which one is most likely will depend on which make and model of water softener you have. If you have an engineering mindset and have a good fault-finding guide, you can try working through these. Otherwise it is time to call in a good water softener engineer. Julian Hobday of KindWater

Does water from water softener harm plants?
Water softened by a conventional salt-based water softener contains sodium. How much depends on the water softener's settings - which in turn is determined by how hard your water is and how soft you want it to be. If there's enough sodium in the water, it can indeed harm house plants. You can avoid this issue by using filtered water, or water from an outside tap (assuming your softener bypasses outside water, as it should). Alternatively, you can get a salt free water softener, which doesn't use sodium chloride to treat water.
Can the water taste salty in your water softener if the salt is low?
Water softener changes the chemical values and proportions in water. Therefore, some people will differentiate a change in taste of water to be more salty. However, malfunctioning can produce higher level of salty water by the softener.
