What are your nutes made from...battery acid? Not only would 3.0 ph water harm them, it'll kill 'em.
But doubtful it's an accurate reading.
...7.0 before adding 1 tsp of nutes? No way the ph can drop to 3ish with only 1 tsp:gallon of nutes, regardless of the maker or brand of nutes used.
...What color does the nutrient change the water to?
...What kind of ph test kit is it? A color-coded one will get skewed results if teating a colored liquid.
No other additives that may affect ph?
