Overall their looking good but after my Res change I keep getting the brown rusty spots on leaves some leaves are yellowing near the bottom.

Jeebus, that's a lot of diff nutes

 

[3G Labs]

Nice buckets.
If you have good bubble action in the buckets - I think it might be an over nute issue. Combination of The droopyness with the lumpy leaves and brown spots.

 

[NWElite89]

Could be a combination of the nutes, but honestly that room humidity is way too low. I usually keep mine 65-75% in veg and then keep it about 60% till week 6 of flowering. After that I drop it at 50% until the grow is done.

Cool thanks Guys, Im going to reduce my Ppm down to around 280. Ive just noticed that Fox Farm line lacks in MicroNutes mainly Manganese

And theres plenty of bubble action the root mass on these two ladies fill their 5gal buckets

Lights on the RH drops a little around 40% Lights off its usually around 70% Ill try to raise a little with the lights on

Growth in bubble buckets is awesome to watch. A very satisfying way to grow for me. I had to keep my buckets cooled , or else they ran at room temp.
How often do you change the res? Whats the res temp with the lights on?

 

[HiGro]

It is, you see can noticeable growth in 8 hours its crazy!

I change and clean my Res every week, I might go two weeks next time IDK yet my Res is always clean and fresh! the Res temps with lights on is a constant 68f and with the lights off it goes down to 65f

I Completely seal them up from light and keep the temps cool with plenty of dissolved O2 and never had any Root Rot yet, nice white root masses.

Some pics i posted in another thread. It was alot of fun, hoping to do more soon.

 

[HiGro]

Nice I have a couple builds in the making its a lot fun and way cheaper to build your own custom set up. Did you see the Bubble cloner I made I cost me $10 Working pretty good I have 6 cuttings in there Res temp about 75f and Air around 70f RH of 80% Running plain Ph'd RO water Ph:5.5 Ppm:14

3 of the cuttings are showing roots already the other have some Primordia starting :D

 

[3G Labs]

Yeah i saw your cloner looked professional. That last pic was mine it was gravity fed by my 60 gal fishtank. Only issue i found is with fungus gnats, they lay their eggs in the cubes and the larvae will eat the roots off. but if you keep a low nutrient level you shouldnt have a problem.

I've never seen preflowers like that. Neat

 

[HiGro]

Little update for you guys....Since i reduced my PPM after the SledgeHammer flush Sunday they have not stopped praying to the Gods! They look way better no necrosis, all the leaves look really healthy. Their just really dense foliage and the lower sections are stretching out to find the light! The first night of the Res change the Lemon Skunk drank a gallon and half of water, shit my RedNose doesn't drink that much!lol...

And for the Pics....

Both doing really well

I've been following this post and those girls look much better after the flush and attenuated feeding... And I wouldn't worry about a manganese issue, just keep it simple. I've never once in 9 years experienced a NOTICABLE manganese, boron, iron etc issue.

 

[HiGro]

Yes they have came along way. My fault I rushed this grow, threw a grow room together...Wont make that mistake again. Ive been doing a lot of research and actually taken a Hydroponics Growing course for a month now. Its really cool, Including my ladies Im also currently growing hydro strawberries, basil, and cilantro.:D

But yes, I agree on not sweating the simple shit....Less is more

 

[NWElite89]

Much improved. Good job
