Hard water has a high pH (alkaline), most CP's grow in acid conditions.
Using distilled water (which is usually neutral to acidic) is best or
use rain water. Do not collect rain water from eavstroughing, too much

Distilled water has a number of ions in it that usually make it acidic.
If you deionize it, then it will be neutral.
