Will do! I have been smelling them constantly, just a nice earthy root smell no gnarliness going on yet, think they are just stained super heavy from the soul, as I have been running hydroguard as well, and flushing intermittently as I didn't know what the heck was going on! Thanks everybody I appreciate it!! Keep you guys updated over the next few days.

Sorry I've been so busy to get on here to help... I be back on more after next weekend... My plants are even taking a hit with me being away so much... Hopefully they will pull thru for me... This is all part of the journey. You don't always have the required time needed for the garden. Now is when I learn how to make things easier by adapting to my situation. ..
Anyway good luck on the ebb and flow plants...
I be watching...

Oh, the mistakes I've made over the years with N. but I've learned from my mistakes (took a long time though and many failures).
I made one last week....:crying2:

We all do! After all we are only human right? I've been running my EC just a tad too high lately myself. I think what makes a good grower over time is not to avoid mistakes but be able to understand exactly why and how that mistake happened so we can fix it or reverse it faster than the last time instead of guessing again when the same issue arises. With every cycle our experience and knowledge grows. We adapt just like our plants do and grow stronger!

Couldn't agree more, it also doesn't hurt to have a good group of friends that know what they're doing! I think I figured out some of my issue. I was using a cheap pH pen and it broke on me. I think the bulb has been cracked for awhile. Solution....bluelab pH pen!!!! Finally got a day off and went to the hydro shop. :cool:

Thanks,,,
U know guys we all make justifications for what we do, what we dont. Im just making sure my priorities dont get confused, so when I say they could all die, and i be fine, its not an understatement......
I see if I can't sneak in and get a few pics here shortly...
oops,, wrong thread :)

Same here brotha. When we lose focus of what is really important we have failed. Well done brother. I'd throw all my shit in a heap and burn it if I thought it would jeapordize my family

Ok guys so since bumping up calmag the plants look a tiny bit better, have drank about 15-20% of their red, and have drank the nutrients down to 800 from 890ppm, think they have actually grown a tad, thinking about mixing a new Rez with a little higher ppm, maybe 950-1000 ppm seeing as the took nutes out of the water, pH is stable, I let it ride between 5.7 and 6.2

I wouldn't rush to go up that high for such a small girl. Just my 2¢

I wouldn't raise it either... keep the same. Seems about perfect... and post pics of whole plant...

This is what they all look like more or less, like I said 3 are this size 3 are about half that size, all look pretty identical.

The leaves on the top of the picture below is from the middle of the plants,and the bottom leaf is from the bottom.

Nvm, I thought they were smaller. I'm on here too much. She's pretty droopy but the new growth looks good. I'm still gonna defer to the hydro guys on this one

Dang those are fat for 5gal flow buckets! Must be quite a bit of roots in there. Any improvement on the root color? I feel like the roots are hankering for more oxygen and can't get it because of the incredible amount of rootmass+hydroton taking up most of the space inside that bucket.

This USB what I was afraid of, rootbound, they are showing a shitload of pistils so thinking they really want to flower, was going to flip them tomorrow anyways. First run in these buckets, guy I got them from was doing 1.2 per plant with plants 2x this size, he did warn about not feeding often enough leading to them getting root bound.
