Read the link in my siggy. That soil mix with the humus in it BUFFERS pH at 6.8-6.9 and you should be able to use even your crummy tap water! Without having to adjust, even! :D
That stuff at the grocery store is RO water. You must add CalMag Plus to it to replace valuable minerals found in tap water. Get it at the hydro shop.
So i couldn't transplant 2 of them cause they already were just about a weeks ago but the others i just transplanted into better soil, not the mix you have suggested cause this is all i could get unfortunately but it has no nutes in this soil and now they are still not doing good, worse even, i'm worried they are all gonna die ! The 2 that are in the miracle grow soil, i tried to flush out but it doesn't seem as if there is alot if any water coming out the bottom into my tray, there is holes in the bottom of the pot ??? i won't and haven't given them anymore store bought r/o water, but still have the trouble about having no hydro store nearby and my tap water's ph being to high. I do have some lemon juice to reduce the ph in my tap water but have been reluctant to use it. As well they seem soggy because of lack of drainage ??? First 2 pics are the babies that were transplanted into miracle grow with plant food.
