Distilled water you can find at a supermarket or pharmacy. Vermont, eh? Howdy neighbah.
You might try a test plant (bagseeds are good for this) using your tap water with the sulfur in it. Plants DO need sulfur, and deficiency symptoms include reddish petioles.
I just got my soil reports from the lab lol(in the bathroom) on my run off water from little clone with spring water.

I like to see Vermonts on the site. I have some bagseed waiting to sprout. We call it the bush. I got the seeds from an oldtimer thats been working on his strain since the 80s. Shit smells like you have a pissed off skunk in your pocket!
Deep green very soft growth is consistent with N toxicity. You in Southern VT? Head down to the little shop behind the laundromat in Putney Center, right on Rt. 5 across from the paper mill, pick up some nice cannabis-specific fert, the shopkeeper has a huge selection and competitive prices. Plus you get to see an Omega garden set up, bonus!
Pissed off skunk? 80's? Local dude? Lucky you... an acclimated classic local Skunk relative!!! Man if we all had bagseeds like that, 'bagseed' wouldn't be a complaint.
You ever run across something called VT Green Lifesaver? That's running up more towards Bellows Falls/White River.
I'm not a Vermonter yet, I'm just across into MA, but I used to tend bar at the Pub Out Back in East Burke and lived in Wheelock (just SW of Lyndonville). I'll be moving to southern VT permanently in a couple years if all goes as planned.
Im more central VT. Ya he says that its original skunkxafganixhashxbigbud years of breeding = the BUSH. Never heard of VT Green Lifesaver. Seems like everyone around here and I mean everyone has there own special blends, well it is Vermont.
Calmag? Where would I pick some up? I dont live near any grow shops, is it a common fert?
Today day one after the flush and now all stems main and leaf are now purple, along with purple on some of the leaves. The new growth hasnt changed at all. Since my Phosphorus test was ok Im thinking a Magnesium Def? Or maybe Potassium Def? What do you think??
For the last step of the flush, did you water with a weak solution of a complete fertilizer with micros? That's an important step. In your case, I'd use a bloom fert for the flush, since I see no evidence that the plant is N deficient at all. I'd also drill some extra holes in that pot to dry it out faster. This is especially important in winter when it's cold. I'm seeing a lot of cold/wet combo related issues come through here since the weather has turned wintry.
I wasnt able to cmplete the lush with a fertilizer all I have is 10-50-10. Would that work if I did a 1/4 of what they recommend? It has boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum and zinc. Is it to late maybe wait till next watering. And yes I drilled extra holes
Good. Yeah, you can use that fert for the last flush step, and 1/4 is good strength.
