Don't feel bad, I started with super expensive Super Closet. It's great for cloning, and veging, but not nearly enough room to flower. Got a 4x4 tent for about $500, lights, exhaust, and fans.

Just fed green crack on left first feeding after 30 days ro water. And just ro watered Giesel Cookies on right which is growing right out of the what seemed to be hot soil. Doing good now though. Giesel Cookies should have me some clones ready in 4 weeks :)

Ok this what we got going on. Been having issues with ph,ppm,and water all falling, so it’s eating,drinking water and ph going down. So first I dumped and went by hydro chart for my problem and dumped then filled with fresh nutes at a higher ppm and no go, second I dumped and flushed with tap water then filled with fresh nutes, no go..
Now after more research i found someone had same problem and they diluted till system leveled out and went back to normal.
So I’ve started at 800ppm on 700 scale and let it eat down for couple days while using ph up to counter ph falling. Last two times instead of using ph up, I just dumped some of plant res and added ro water to raise ph. I’m down to 250 after diluting 3 times. It’s still eating,drinking,ph falling. LOL WTFFFFFF!!!!!!!
On other notes a lot of leaves are dark green and some white tips, so I’m guessing ppm was to high at one point and I’m gonna try and let it lighten up before adding maybe 500ppm nutes. Trial and error love it!!!!! Smh

My green crack mom was root bound like a mug so I chopped some roots and replanted yesterday. I also took couple clones cause it’s looking rough as fuck today lol.
Giesel Cookies mom is growing and looks like I’ll have some great clones by the time I get this test run plant out of flowering.
You can see the yellowing leaves on bottom of plant on green crack on left.
Giesel Cookies on right.

I used to have that issue... running nutes to high was my problem..I'm like 12 days behind you in ine of my grows...my ppm..550.. everything runs smoothly...I run my well water(165ppm) floranova,hydroguard... room temp..80-95,rh.45-50..they do drink like 5 gl.a day.total....its better to feed less and make them drink more......FYI...ppm conversation scale is for ppm to ec...ppm are the same..ie...500-1.ec,or like 700-1. Ec...so a 1.0 ec on a 700 scale is like 1.4 ec.on the 500 scale,but still 700 ppm...

I'm pretty sure youve got that backwards. Both 500 and 700 scale are based off the ec. One just reads based off of Kcl and one reads the NaCl.
1 Ec reads 500ppm on the north American scale and Europe uses 700 scale so 1 Ec reads 700ppm there. But they are both based off of the EC.
I can see this when I make a batch of nutes, on the bluelab pen you can switch what scale it reads on. If I mix up a 1 Ec nutrient it will read 500 or 700ppm depending what scale I have it set to.
In other words;
1.5 EC x 500 = 750ppm
1.5 Ec x 700 = 1050ppm

6 months in and my bluelab guardian monitor took a shit. Maybe that was the problem as I didn’t figure out until ppm wouldn’t move, when I tried to cal the unit went to 4/10 cal first instead of 7 like it’s supposed to then reads error. New one be here tomorrow and then I’m boxing up old one and sending back for refund fuck them. I have a cheap ph meter on deck rn.

Have to agree I bought 2 ,way back.. keeping clean.. recalibrating.. replacement ends...I have a TDS pen and I use drops..I only need to check every few days anyway..and I prefer it anyway..no electronics living to me.lol

Ok my damn probe was broke on the little glass ball at the end. I got new bluelab monitor today and the fucking probe was broke in it to lol!!! So sending that shit back tomorrow and getting fk ton of replacements and I’ll be using this ph pen till then yay that sux ass.
Anyway we’re at 46 days so this is end of week 6. Let’s look at this poor ass plant she’s hanging in there but probably mad as hell lol.
Then leaves look like pure nutrient lockout this plants probably been like wtf dude!!!!! Haha

Day 48/63 so lil over 7 weeks, I got a new ph probe like $75 from atlas scientific, there probes do work with bluelab guardian monitor but the cords are half the length.
So ph is still being kinda weird but it’s alive and finally starting to fatten up, tbh I think they should be a lot fatter but I do have like 36 tops on this plant and still lil over 2 weeks to go so idk we’ll see. Some branches are starting to fall over. I used silica couple times since flower but stopped so I added some yesterday idk if it’s gonna help or not.
And the clones in humidity dome did not work for me, maybe I’m supposed to let them breathe more or something idk. Trashed them and started new ones in oxycloner. 3 Giesel cookie for next run and one green crack to replace momma.

Harvsted only 250 grams off the green crack. It was harvested two weeks early cause my ex trashed my grow room and hacked half the plant down. All my equipment is in storage since then. I hope to continue soon. Plus this was my almost full first grow and learning hydro for my only grow also. Really wish I could of flushed for them last two weeks cause bud came out harsh.
