I bought plants: currants and goji. all died. this year I bought again currants but I keep them in pots and they have shade in the morning. their leaves got sunburn but at least they are alive. I water them every day.
I thought bottle gourd is ornamental, lol.
not an expert but there is loss of oxygen, altered water structure, chemical chages, etc. if you google it AI will tell you microwaved water is safe but you will never grow anything with that "safe" water.

BO don't live long in my (hot) climate. they are not good mothers here as they get hot and don't cover the chicks. I had british type BO and she got broody at 6 mo. unfortunately half of her chicks died as she kept getting up and panting. she also died in july at about 8 mo.
