I started with purified water in seedling, than got lazy and started using tap water...

Still supplemented with 4 ml to a gallon with calmag

Now edges of leaves are crocodiling a bit.

Should I just jump back to purified water and supplement with the cal

Or can i use tap water and let it sit out for a day or two, and go half strength on the calmag.

I ordered a ppm pen but ill need to water again before it gets here

Thanks peeps
 
if you mean taco leaves then i normally associate that with heat issues/light intensity. im running my current grow in my sig NO PH'd water i only use tap water+nutes dont even use calmag you can see they are doing okay. i highly doubt my PH is super low or super high but i can tell you it aint in the proper zone for sure. i've tested my PH before but im not PHing atm cause i dont have a car due to a car accident months ago so i can't go to the store and buy supplies to calibrate my PH pen and all that shit.

matter of fact just yesterday or 2 days ago my leaves were tacoing that is because i had my lights too close and i already dealing with heat issues as you can see edges are raised slightly. but the photo's i took just today they are not tacoing. there is one in the back that looks like it is but thats the one closest to the fan. Just my 2cent with using tap water. not my first grow using just tap water either but i do live in Hawaii so my tap water might be slightly better compared to yours.

Agree with leaf shape being due to heat stress.
