Well.. why are you feeding it a blooming nute? Those are typically lower in Nitrogen, which you want in higher amounts during veg.

How close are the lights?

pics please and what is the exact pH.
I bought distilled water at Wal-Mart a while back and it pHed at over 7.2.
We rarely see phos deficiency in veg unless temps or pH are bad.
