Do I need distilled water?

0.3 PPM chlorine
1ppm fluoride
Ph between 6.8-7.4

Do I need distilled water or is tap water that stood for a couple of days ok?

The numbers I put are the local tap water results

I would let the water sit for a day or two in a bucket. Others will say you will be fine and you ‘might’ be. I would be scared that the chlorine would damage any beneficial life in the soil.
Happy growing…

I used tap water on my plants this past grow. I had to tweak their ph a few times, but nothing major.
Boiling your tap water for about 15mins will remove the chlorine, if that’s a concern…that’s what I do.

If you’re really worried about it, go the distilled water route though. At least until you can find more information, maybe?
