Sorry i keep forgetting details that might be helpful....i live in Colorado so keeping the humidity between 40-60 has been kind of hard witht he ventilation system running in the grow tent. I have two humidifers going right now one cool mist the other hot (if that makes sense)...the "hot mist" humidifier is closest to this suffering plant so i wasnt sure if the hot water mist could cause something like this...thanks again for all the
good luckHi There is your answer keep humidifiers away from plant as they generate heat /plus if the mist is hot , you will leaf deformations may occur like yours, once your plant grow the 5th node ...top them and raise the ppm to 500-600, keep your p/h 6.0 , make sure you have a small fan or 2 running keep temps at 80 , if its higher use C02 bag...... make sure your air supply to buckets good also
haha what would you recommend?I'd throw my Fox Farms food in the trash while being angry about buying them.
Well I've had my easiest results with just maxigrow and maxibloom powder. And hydrogen peroxide. I've had other more complex recipes. But this last hydro experiment went so well I decided to use that method for hydro exclusively. I was using 10 grams a gallon. Sometimes a bit less. I never expected scoops of powder to replace my 3 parts plus supplement concoctions. But it did. And was better. Color. Smell. Yield. Texture. Weight. All great. But nothing wrong with a cheap 3 part GH. Or PH perfect. There's also a basic 3 part for hard water that can work well. But I mean. I added one scoop per bucket per week. With peroxide. It was always at 6.0 PH. And under 600 watts it was over a pound a light. Of medium yielding kush. It was my simplest hydro recipe grow attempt. One that even the house keeper could do for a grow. White ashes. 3 days in just tap water before the cut. I am of the less is more school.haha what would you recommend?
I just need to clarify one word I seen a few time.... ok 2 words but who's counting.I wont add much cause these guys will help more but for a few basics, ...watch the New growth on Top mostly...dont sweat the beat up under neath stuff as much...
When you do get DWC dialed it will be Fast as Fook...
So get ready cause you have a challenge on your hands..I ran solo DWC buckets for 4 yrs....Loved it!!....Fast growth and massive yields...it was hard to keep up with it!...heheh
I did design a DWC feeding system if you get to a point and want try my method..but its BODWC - Bio Organic DWC...
I used to pull 3-4oz's off of 2gal painters buckets...
This is what Our BubbaOkush looks like at 3+oz in a 2gal solo....
power to it

Imo thats crazy high amount of cal mag.
If it works it works. Personally I don't see a need to go over about 150ppm of cal mag as long as your environment is allowing for good transpiration rates.300ppm in Ro works well with a bit of silica and bit of rapid root and of coarse something to keep it clean, hydroguard for example or maybe bio clean
check out this rock star, lol
2 weeks from seed
mind you the roots will be a bit cleaner tonight.
Was waiting for someone to ask about this...I just need to clarify one word I seen a few time.... ok 2 words but who's counting.
Bio organic... assuming this is like teas etc where the nutrients are already in available form and not in organic form. Basically derived from organic sources?
One day I would mind a good discussion on it.
I know organics is not the easiest to do in hydro... speaking organic form where the nutrients are being broken down in the system naturally by bacteria. But I believe it's actually not all that hard to using traditional organic amendments in a system modified to do so. Basically a waterfall through amended media of varying makeups to allow the microbes to flourish and repopulate since most of the specic ones needed require more air exposure and surface area to attach to than the system we run currently.
I'm completely grasping this. I had spent 20 yrs or so breeding fish and propagating aquatic plants and there is no replacement for cycled and will established tank.Was waiting for someone to ask about this...
Bio Organic in my view is a combination of both Raw Organics or a version of concentrated Organics but used in conjunction and in a Biochemistry way....with all sorts of ingredients, Salts or Boosters mixed in used as Supplements to the Base...Its a combination of
"Organic chem.....organic chemistry's dependence on synthesis and reaction problems.
Biochemistry is the branch of science that explores the chemical processes within and related to living organisms....
Biochemistry focuses on processes happening at a molecular level. It focuses on what's happening inside our cells, studying components like proteins, lipids and organelles.
What Im doing is Biochem with Organics and other ingredients on Cannabis.....Think that covers the basics of why I call it Bio-Organic-Chemistry...
@Aqua Man the reason I devised this is cause I found no middle ground between Organics and BioChem....So I created it...
Actually if you look for pH uptake charts...You'll only find 2 versions...Soil/Organic and Hydro...Theres no Organic Hydro...So thats why I did a study on micro elements for over 6yrs... 3 Uptake charts shown, Soil, Hydro..and my own version of Organic Hydro - aka Bio Organic Chemistry in a Hydro application...
To be fair theres more to it then whats shown...The pH ranges Flux in more extreme way in Hydro so my application is based on more then just the base results...
Many other factors to consider but IMO there needed to be a In between from Organic to Hydro....Enjoy
Btw Using Organics in DWC is not simple...Theres many factors to think on and be prepared for...Most use a sterile root bios...
What Im suggesting is not based on sterility...But more working with slight amounts of organics and certain concentrates...power to it
