Let me start off by saying I have not added any nutes, but I did add perlite to my soil and it does have a tiny amount of nutes in it, very small though, less than .1-.1.-1. I'm pretty sure its just heat stress, but I wanted to take it here just to be sure.

I am being a little over protective, it's my first grow and I've already butchered 4 plants before I got one to grow. I think the water hovers around a 7, I need to get some vinegar to lower it just a bit, temps are right around 80 usually.

collect a littel rain water untill you have your PH kit

(if its easy for you to collect .. continue to do so.. as rain water is great .. clean and PH neutral)

yea well ok .. thats might be right .. dont do it if you life near chernobyl or sumthing ..

but you know .. tab water can also be contaminated .. but yea I guess your right .. need to consider it all .. also wher to collect it from .. a tar roof is not a good idea either .. bricks work ;)

I usealy have a small containor in my tube outside my window to collect a bit from my brick roof .. mostly use it for misting and seedlings aso.

I let my tap water sit out for 24 hours so the chemicals in it can disperse, and I got some vinegar to lower the pH and watered the plants and they are all green now, but I also constructed an air conditioner to blow on the fans too.
