you can use any water as long as its ph of 6.0 to 6.4
i use bottled water and always have done! its better than tap water as it doesnt have the clorhine

you can use both as far as I'm concerned, I use rainwater, not as pure as distilled but damn near.
so your tap waters 8.3 and rainwater is over 9, I'd say your ph tester is fucked, just a guess LOL
what's your bottled water testing at or the distilled for that matter

nothing pure about rainwater
needs to be collected from a tin roof
Chlorine one of the 16 elements required by plants
most folks are unaware that the amount of Cal in your feeding needs to be equal to the sodium in your water
NEVER SAID IT WAS. Here in the Pacific Northwest it's damn near though.
pretty much the same but it can get more airborne pollutants accumulate in it .
I wouldn't recommend it if your in an industrial area.

my tap water runs about the same ph as this and i don't have any problems using it straight from the tap, the ppm runs anywhere from 280 to 350. with my hydro setup i keep the water adjusted from 6.2 to 5.4. the plants that i have growing in miracle gro potting soil mix get what ever comes out of the tap. all my plant are doing great and never shows any signs in defencies or being over fed. you might want to simple it up a bit, your plants and wallet will thank you for it.
