I use coast of main. Probably might not want to do ro water with it

Living Organic Soil, RO water, and pH. What's the deal here?
Reverse Osmosis system is working at peak performance, pH from faucet at a near perfect 7.0 and a TDS/PPM of under 20 Have suffered deficiencies in previous grows and overwhelming consensus seems to say LED + RO water means additional Ca/Mg is a must So I bought this stuff...

Do you think I could just use my well water. I had it tested for hardness and I was told the hardness reading was average.I use coast of main. Probably might not want to do ro water with it

Where I am the well water is amazing, I wouldn't use RO water over well water. Just the way I roll, RO is a waste of water anyway.

Send your soil and water to logan labs and have then do a saturated paste test. and find out what you may be missing from your soil. they can also test your soil and water independently as well.

This is likely your issue. Said you were using well water before, correct? And the well water never caused these issues before, yes?
Your well water has minerals that the plant/soil need, RO has stripped those minerals from the water, and now they are unavailable to your plant as a result.
Go back to your original water source and the issue should correct itself in no time.
