Was curious if it was safe to water plants with well water?

you may want to consider reverse osmosis until you can experiment w your well water. you'll need to boost yer cal mag if you r.o., possibly add a portion of well water to the ro.

Do you know what's in the well water? what the ph is? get that info first and it should give you an idea of what you are dealing with.

you can PH it, Check the PPM, Some well water is floored with calcium or sulfur. Do you drink it ?
