I wouldnt suggested buying a ph tester just to be sure, watering with unstable ph can be really bad... there only like 15 bucks.

the only prob with most bottled water is they are heated than cooled leaving them with no aeration. (bubbles) if you use sparkling (w/ bubbles) than it's better. you could shake the heck out of your water bottles for added air! air in the water helps

You mean you would suggest, Im assuming..

Yes get one, I tested my pH of bottled water, and its near 8!
Thats way too high!!
Always know your pH is you can.. It will save you time, and hassles in the future..

Knowing your pH will also allow you to troubleshoot much more better..
Knowing that pH isnt an issue, will allow you to focus on other possible problems..

IF they occur.

why just not just buy a brita filter? isnt buying that water kinda expensive?

I think I am going to go out and snag one of these, I have been using bottled water and I just transplanted into 10" pots and was like damn.. that's going to need a lot of fucking bottled water.

you could also buy a air pump and sticks from a Fish store and have the air sticks in the watter at max air floe and it should put ample ammount of watter in your watter. I speek from experince because I also breed fish and my tank is full of tiny air bubbles

Sometimes when I didn't feel like refilling my jugs up with water I just used bottled water. Plenty of times. Nothings bad happened. Well, at least I haven't noticed it or linked anything bad that has happened to the bottled water lol.
