Too much light?

I might be over doing the light? I’m using recipe 420 soil only, no other nutrients. I’ve been told it shouldn’t be too strong for seedlings. No burnt tips, temp is like 74 during day and 60 at night. Light is vipraspectar xs-2000 at 14 inches and 100% strength. I water when dry with 6.5-7 ph RO water.

If you're going to water that much raise the temp to 80 and don't let it dip below 70 when the lights are off.

I think my water ph is too acidic. I tested the run off and it appeared light orange. However its got sediment that made it hard to see.

The point of testing water PH is to adjust it as needed before you water the plant, so do it while it's clean and still in the bucket.

Thank you, I’ve been doing that more. I’ll check run off and adjust my ph a bit before i water. Basically i have a pot with just the soil that i test the ph run off then i adjust my water before giving to plants now. They seem happier now so it appears to be working. I appreciate your help. Thank you
