I think the Reverse osmosis (RO) water I was using helped a great deal. Most definitely will be buying one for myself in the coming month dude!

Thank you mate. I'm over the moon with it!
haha yeah trimming was a joke, took me about 15 hours in total, but I did find it kinda therapeutic at times. Might just be the first time novelty factor lol
cheers for the points homie, & cheers for the points yesterday @Itisi - I wish I could just give them all back to you guys. Well I've got a shit load of catching up to do with use guys current grows, I'll also take the time to check out some new peeps projects.

So the RO water's ph stabilized once you added some Calmag/nutes? I'm still trying to understand. Sorry lol. I had been using some spring water that was said to be between 6.0 and 6.5. I believe this can fluctuate depending on where it was bottled, water temps etc right? Does bubbling your water throw the pH off too? I was thinking I could start throwing the airstone in the water for a bit, removing the stone, then mix nutes up and feed or water?
It'd be going into soil btw....would it be beneficial or should I leave the bubbling to the hydro folks?

Yeah man. Once you add your nutes you're then able to change the pH without it fluctuating like crazy. If you're thinking of flushing with the R.O too, then just add a drop of cal mag first so that you can get it to the range you want.
In regards to spring water I'm not massively clued up on it, although I would be careful because I know of someone that used it and killed their plants because there was too much natural calcium in the water... That being said, that is the one and only account of spring water being used that I know of, I'm sure there are endless amounts of people the use spring water to great effect. I guess it's just down to what minerals are in the water in your area and the amount. Be sure to check your PPM before adding nutrients, so that you can gauge how much antes is safe to add at the different stages of your girls life.
As far as I know, Bubbling your feed won't change your pH. If I was you I'd do what you said and add some airstones to your water. Oxygenating your feed can only help, I guess!
One thing I will say is, every time you add some nutrients to your water, stir it well, each and every time. Then let it sit for 6 about hours before you pH, this gives everything time to settle and will give you a truer reading!

Thank you very much sir! One last question lol. I've got some
nutes and one contains alot of guano and worm castings. If I let this sit for 6 hours, the heavier particles sink. Would it be okay to check the pH with it settled or should I give it a shake...or will that defeat the whole purpose of waiting 6 hours lol? But good looking out on the spring water, I'll be sure to keep an eye out! I pretty well stuck with Ozarka Spring water the whole cycle and everything seemed to be okay. But I'm far from being an expert lmao. (I think the ppm on it usually read in the low 30's.) But thanks again for your help! Congratulations on the success, I look forward to seeing more from ya! Later!
