The pH of you're water is WAY too high. You need to get that down to 6.5-6.8.

I was going to the store today to buy crystal geyser bottle water from now on because it has a ph of about 6.93. Will that be good instead of adjusting the ph of my water? I will also start feeding again with my next watering.

Well if you're going to start adding nutrients, then you are going to have to adjust the pH. Get a pH kit and pH up and down. Then you can just use tap water and not have to make more trips to the store.

For now, I went to the store and bought 2 gallons of Arrowhead spring water. I added nutes to 1 gallon and watered until about 5-10% run off and the pH of my run off was 6.2. Should I be okay for now?

my solution pH is 6.5 and after the run off was the 6.2
My leaves were already kinda droopy, possibly from over watering, but it needed watering today so thats why i only did 5-10% run off.

So then there is no way the pH of your soil is 8 if that's the run off that you're getting.
It should be okay Get some pH up and down though.

if you're buying bottled water don't get spring, because it isn't purified, and does contain minerals (defeating the purpose of why most people buy bottled water). But hawk is right, more than likely you'll be fine with tap water (if you're not using a well or water softner)
