do you ph your water before soaking? some plants will adapt but some plants are sensitive :)

Didnt ph them but used bottled distilled so figured i was ok. is there any way to test the ph of the cube itself to see that its bad or should i just start to feed it ph adjusted water? also is the distilled a bad idea?

ive heard good ph water is the best thing to start young seedlings, you should have a ph pen at hand?, it may just be sensitive and grow out of it :)
