Ebb and Flow causing problems. PLEASE HELP!!!

[Georgekush22]

Ok folks, So I have been running the same regimen for almost three years and as soon as I moved into a new house I have been running into nothing but problems. I can't decide if it is due to Environmental problems, Lockout or a deficiency. I hope these pics will get my point across. Any input is much appreciated.

Yeah temps has been varying this season where im at. On average Im sitting at 65 when its bedtime and 69 to 72 when lights are on.

More info to help anyone trying to give advice. RH is between 40-50, running RO water using Cal-Mag, A+B nutes as base, cannazyme and rhizatonic.

I run a very similar setup with similar temps. I did have issues with what I thought was them being cold but the temps seem fine here.. This problem would occur after transplant into new and bigger cube and put into the bigger room. I wonder if its feed or times but you said you've ran this for 3 years. The only thing I do differently is surround my cubes with hydroton when it floods. Kind of a humdinger since all else looks in check unless some weird pest.. MWD

How dry are the cubes each time it floods?

Georgey,

How often are they being flooded right now?

What's the PH when you set it? Is it swinging up or down during the day ?

What nutrients are in the Rez's right now? PPM? EC?

We will get to the bottom of this.

Ph is 5.9, flooding 3X's a day, Nutes are A+B and Cal-Mag at 430ppm. Blue dream seemed to be struggling because it wanted more cal-mag its raging strong once again (running in RO) Chem and ECSD are still struggling though. Pics 3 and 4 (Chem), (ECSD) Pics 6 and 7.

For that size plant, that size cube, and a max temp of 72 I imagine 3x/day flooding doesn't leave them much room to breathe. Rockwool holds a lot of water and needs to dry somewhat before each flood.

Are the cubes dry to the touch prior to flooding or heavy when lifting? They look to be slightly overwatered. If the cubes are heavy, take away the 2nd water cycle for a week or so to let them establish. If the cubes are overwatered, the roots have little oxygen and cannot uptake food like they want it.

Raise your temps a little if possible

Definitely overwatering

When I ran this system I let my plants get to the T.W.P (Temporary Wilt Point) before watering again...I only watered twice a week, give it a try. Save allot on nutes and pH'ing all the time.

It looks like overwatering to me too... Just like Greenleaf said

have they been top-flushed? Rockwool will wick and salts will build up at the top if you only flood/drain

Yeah I top fed water for 3 days. They are coming back slowly but surely. Bout to flip these bitches in a few days.

In my current setup they are flooded 2 x a day, i was doing 3 but seemed too much and i seem to have bigger plants. I think they will accept 3 x a day flood im mid bloom usually. Hope they are coming around homie.
