New Grower Bad water

[pop22]

I should have picked up on this right away, this is the second time my shitty water has wrecked my plants. I was thinking that it was my fault ( again... ), too much nutes, etc. No its my damned well water! The mini RO unit states the pre-filters are good for about 300 gallons. Well, I'm probably well over that as I was using this previously to treat water for 2 DWC reservoirs. I'm likely WAY over 300 gallons, but I didn't think about it until I was puzzled over the necrosis on my plants. Ordered new filters today, I'll go buy some distilled until they get here. I'm going to invest in a whole-house filter system and pre-filter my water before it even gets to my RO unit, that should extend the life of its components considerably.

Here's what the water is doing to my plants:

Are you drinking that well water pop ?? :no:

What is going on with the H2O, pop? Is there something in the well water that's way out of balance? or, pH?
My well water gets pissy in the early Spring- pH goes haywire and the PPMs shoot up. I have to mix with distilled for about a month until it "finds jesus"... lolol
The whole house RO setup.. Envious
Hang in there, Brother :Sharing One:

Nope, filtered or spring water. I've had the water tested and nothing you can put your finger on, except the iron is a little high, weird..............

Noooo...not whole house RO, just a carbon and sediment filter. RO is actually wasteful of water. I capture the waste and use what I can for washing clothes, etc.

Too bad, the plant itself seems to be doing alright apart fromt those burned leaves. Will you be able to get her back to health and are more effected?
