My system is on an automatic BlueLab ph doser so it never goes above 6.0 in my res. I also have an airstone going. I use 20% tap and 80% RO. I believe the ph is rising over night between lights on and off inside my PVC pipes. I'm starting to flush my line before they drip into the plant. It's...
I have a Netafim drip system and I have noticed my plants looking like hell so I started looking into what the problem might be. I have narrowed it down to something I don't know what to do about.
I put my drippers in a collection cup to see what was coming out before it went into my plants. My...
I've never had this before in coco. This Rockwool is all new to me. I figured I had over watered under watered, something happened, now I just need to know how to fix it.
I was working my way up from 800ppms then to 900 then I hit 1000-1100 for the first two weeks, and they were turning yellow, then drying. No matter work ppm's they were they were still turning yellow and dieing. I was flushing to get ph up a little because it had dropped to 4.5-5.0 I was...
I'm using the Bluelab ph meter and "yes" I did that. I switched, then calibrated. I was down around 1100 for the last 2 weeks. So here is the run -off measurements. Going in 1350, coming out 610ppm 6.0ph I just finished week 3. Your right some buds look small, therefore I thought up the ppm's...
So, I'm at a loss here. I feel I've tried a lot of stuff to try and improve/save these girls. Nothing seems to be working. They are turning yellow, sometime brown/black spots, then dying. Started lower and working it way up the stem. This is my first time in Rockwool. My coco was amazing 2.77...
I will only use 6x6 cubes next time. I jumped in with both feet on the 8x8 cubes. They have been in there since they were babies. I want to dial this in so I don't have to go back to coco. So much cleaner.
My Cal Mg is 2-3 ml per gal it says. My stems are red so I figured it was having a cal mg def. so I increased it. I usually back it off in flower. I don't know if anything contains ammonium source nitrate I will check. So I should increase my watering time to get more run off?
Thank you so much for responding. I'm using RO water. My tap water here in Cali in 280ppm. The cubes are Hugo 8X8 by Groden. My lights go on at 6pm I start watering at 7:00pm next water is 9:00, 11:00, 1:00am lights off at 6:00am My timer is set for 3:00min. each watering. Which comes to 250mls...
Hi Farmers, I'm hoping for some help on this. I switched from coco to rockwool on this run and it's my first rockwool grow. I'm having major ph problems in the run off which my plants are suffering from. I flush once a week. My run off ppm is around 800ppm however my ph DROPS down to 4.0 or 4.7...
Hopefully someone might know whats happening here to my girls. I'm at the end of the 4th week and no buds. It actually looks like new tops keep growing. It Sunset Sherbet. I'm under 1000wt HPS growing in coco 5gal running heavy16 lights 12/12. This is the first time anything like this has...
I use a Coco blend 70/30 with perlite. I have a pretty big area to grow in so I can go up to 7 gal pots if need be. I was told to by pass the 1 gal and go directly into 3 gal. I wish I had done different now. However, I won't have to transplant.
I'm running a drip system for the first time, in 3 gal fabric pots. I'm at the end of my 1st week in Veg. I use to hand water in soil, therefore I was use to watering each plant with ether a full liter, or 1/2 gal depending on where I was in the cycle. I would get a good 20% run off. Now, I'm in...
