PPM issue

so my well water ppm is 330 right out the tap and a ph of 8.
I dont have an R/O water system yet and it might be a couple months b4 I do..
I was going to use bottled water but its ppm was at 200!.. (nestle purelife)
I can adjust ph but is there anything I can do about high ppm b4 I get an R/O system?
Im vegging in a 5gal dwc bucket and flowering in a 20gal dwc bucket, 10" net pots w/scrog net.

I've had a house that I used for a garden that had water like that. I just figured the ppm into my total so if I wanted 1000 ppm I just figured the 250 out of the tap into the total. That makes it so I was adding 750 ppm of nutes. This probably isn't the right way to do it but it worked. I never did figure what was in the water but I did get most the way threw flowering a batch with just the plain water from that area.

Aquafina is 0 PPM. I use it for seedlings and clones...I get as much of it as I want for basically free though. Im sure you can find gallons of ro water a lot cheaper at your local grocery store.

Back the tape up. I need it again!
Let it roll! Just as high as the fucker can go!
And when it comes to that fantastic note
where the rabbit bites its own head off,
I want you to THROW THAT FUCKING
RADIO INTO THE TUB WITH ME!
Not me. It would blast you through
