i can get ro water and it says treated with uv is that okay if so its only 40cents a gal would that be a good to use

Imo you missed the informative bits in the water analysis. Calcium, sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, sulfate, magnesium. They should all be in that analysis. cn

i thought there was stuff missing but where i got the info that was all that was listed so would the store ro water be a good choice i mean its cheap and i only have 2 plants would it be my best bet

Calcium, sodium, magnesium and bicarbonate are missing, and these are usually the headliners in a water report. I'm puzzled.
What this means is,that, without those numbers, I can't comment on whether or not water quality was a factor. Sorry. cn

okay lets just forget my water then how about the store ro that will be good to use right

 

[grorite]

also since the ppm will be 00 do i need to add cal and mag or will the lime i added to the soil take care of that

As long as you can stay below 300ppm you should be fine. 6 to 7 ph is fine.
