I'm battling with a high ph tap water problem 7.6 And my ladies are in nute lockout. Tested soil and it was 7.2. What should I do? Can I just start watering with a lower ph water and hope for the best or try adding stuff to the soil to lower it like peat moss or something.

The only way they could be nute locked out is if you overfed and more than once. Not soil pH of 7 to 7.2. FFOcean is 7.2 I believe out of the bag.

I didn't realize that I thought it should be around 6.5

A soil ph of 7.2 should be fine. What makes you think youre having a nutrient "lockout"? Is she showing some kind of stress?
