My leaves are yellow and curling up at the end

Hands down everyone posting knows more than I here but one thing I did learn on my current and first grow was I was feeding too much in my Roots Organic soil at first. I used spring water and calmag after that and let the plants feed off of the soil only for a few weeks. 50% RH and 79 temp. I was told by lots of peeps that nutes are #5 in importance behind light, water, temp and RH.

Thank you I should’ve done more research rather then take some phony class online on how to grow indoor. I’ll flush them with spring water as soon as they dry from the flushing of the distilled water today. I’ll do it exactly as you said and focus and keeping the plants healthy. I’ll keep you and everyone updated. Again I appreciate all of the support and feedback that I’m getting. I’m glad there’s websites like these where I can get help.
Get a bucket and fill it with water and use it after 24 hours. If you're flushing use normal water first and then use the bucket water.

Tap water contains chlorine and fluoride or fluorine in most cities. Both are toxic. Especially to microbes in your soil. I use a charcoal inline filter. Makes all my plants healthier. I've run side by side comparisons.
That's why you leave it out for 24 hours. It's fine the guys only doing a few plants

I looked up a charcoal filter I plan on getting one later on but it’s too expensive at the moment.
Yah just leave buckets of water out dont use spring bottle water,its filled with salt
Hey Ray. The Crystal Geyser water I use is like 8-10 PPM and on the label they say they don't add anything. Am I missing something about added salts or are there other brands that add salt/minerals that you are referring to.

Between 6 &12 PPM on every brand I've ever purchased. Somebody is selling someone mineral water. There are a bunch of crazy water formulas on the market. Spring water should be about 10% TDS of tap water. Glad you have better tap water than me. Mine tastes like chemicals before the charcoal. Wish I didn't need the $40 filters. Peace.

What do you recommend for watering if I can’t afford a filter right now.
The chlorine usually valproate itself in 12 to 24 hours. Give it a try and leave some out and give it a taste test. You'll see a big difference
Buy a garbage bin and fill it with water. Dont cover it and let it sit. Use it after 12-24 hours
Go go n chill
