Post you nutrients ppm and ph light hight and water temps then I can try to help....o yea and your coco nutrients ..

Top feed those girls with the same ppms you were running before your transfer for 3-5 days, 3-5 times a day.. Helps eliminate the shock... I also keep my water level at the bottom of net pot until after your transition is solid into the UC.. After they don't need that top feed I raise the water level and let the UC ride.. while top feeding my ppms in my UC sits at 250-300 on .5 scale..

@Don/Billz I purchased the clone from a clinic in the coca soil, cleaned it in sterile water and transfereed it to the UC. I'm currently running dynabloom at 5mL/gallon, ppm is 300, ph is 6.0, light is 16in. above plants, water temp. is 69F, and room temp. is 78F.
@A4f i top feed 3 times a day but i was using the water from the epicenter what I did need to do was drain my water a little i had the water level engulfing the bottom of the net pots. What am I doing wrong ?

Lift your light to at lest 30in add cal mag and top feed 2 or 3 times a day you can use a turkey baster if you don't want to set up top feed system... they should make Come back in a day or 2 . Are your running more then one strain this kind of thing just keeps coming back because it's hard to find a happy ppm for all your strains. I only mono crop in UC to keep it simple ...
 
#7
@Don I'm using a t5 light should i still raise it 30 in ? And I have all same strains, I was also told not to use the calmag until i see roots its been 4 days since I've started and i still see no visible roots.

Sounds like alot of ppms for clones just being transplanted to me. I rarely exceed 300 ppms in full flower in my UC when I transplant I try to keep mine around 100. alot of people on here have great luck with way higher ppms then me though so I guess it just depends on your strain.for my plants it seems the lower the better I've ran 100 ppms all the way through flower and my yields were actually higher then normal.

I top feed my babies with higher ppms then in my UC. I run 250-300 ppms in my UC with clones, 200 of that being Cal Mag. I hit them with 400-600 ppms of top off, 250 being Cal Mag, depending on root zone prior to entering my UC. I am asumming you are using ro... Why I'm asumming I have no idea.. lol IMO Cal Mag is a must when using ro... The highest your water level should be is an inch and a half below whatever media your clones are set in, cubes, plugs or whatever. You dont want that media in the water or getting hit by the water getting soaked. If it was getting drenched that could be the culprit... Bump your room temps to 80-82.. water is ok at 68 till roots pop then drop to 63-65.

I am running ro actually good guess haha. So I drained the old water and replaced with ro water hit with 200 ppm of calmag. Next I added half strength b52 and voodoo and added sensigrow a and b till I got a ppm of 390. I was shooting for 350... I am top feeding with water hit with 250 ppm calmag, half strength b52 and voodoo and sensigrow a and b for a total ppm of 510

Nice.. until my roots start taking off and I notice my girls drinking I just top off my UC daily with a 5 gallon bucket. I use the same nute schedule as in my UC, this will also allow you to adjust ph if needed.. just add slowly letting it mix in your UC. I have an outdoor camping solar shower hung above my uc. I can adjust how fast it enters my UC, I got it for $5 on sale, it holds 10 gal. After your plants start to drink just match your res to your UC. I only add b52 on my first day not in res, no reason other then to save nutes and I see the same results.. I usually keep my res ph lower then my UC to slow down the creep that AN likes to do.. I start at 5.2-5.6 and keep my res at 5.2 and I never need to add ph down again for the week. It hits 6.2-6.3 and stays till res change. I do changeouts weekly except my first stew I run for 10-14 days till my first flush and fresh stew... I'm wishing you the best bro...

THANK YOU SO MUCH
your a life saver A4FD
so my ppms already dropped to 370 in the UC should I top off with stronger nutes?
 
#14
Personally I'd let it fall to 350 and see if your roots are popping strong, once they are then see if you can stop top feeding and see what your girls are doing to your UC.. If they keep dropping and no longer need that top feed bump UC up to 400-450, 200-250 being Cal Mag.. sounds like you got things on the way...
 
#16
What brand cal mag bro?I am by no means a uc guy but ran my share of hydro.
 
#18
Mine do that all the time until they get fully established. I used to get worried I just wait patiently now. I assume they are eating themselves until they have some good feeder roots reaching water or if they are establishing in a different kind of system it takes a minute for them to adjust.
