Is that spring water? If it is, switch to filtered water and get yourself a pH test kit. That's the only way you're going to be able to correct a pH problem. Spring water frequently has a high pH and needs to be buffered before it is suitable to use for growing. Even store-bought filtered water often has a slightly high pH, because of the minerals they add for flavor. That's why you need a pH test kit. They cost less than $10 and you can get one at any pharmacy or garden center.
