Decided to build a custom f&d system using 4” sewer and drain pipe, and black (gas) pipe for the table. Recycled a few parts from previous diy hydro systems.
Im now starting week 3 flower and have been experiencing droopy leaves for nearly two weeks.
I’ve attempted to alter room temps, humidity, flood cycles, EC, and light distance/intensity.
The organically grown plants in the same room under hids are not showing the same symptoms, which makes me suspect that environment is not the issue but rather, EC or flood cycles could be responsible. Ph is within the acceptable range for hydroponics @5.9-6.1 between 2 separate bluelab probes.
I normally grow rdwc and do not have this problem so as of right now I suspect a lack of oxygen at the root zone, however, if you look at the root pics, they’re white and healthy.. Completely dumbfounded, growing since 2007 and never had this issue.
Any insight is appreciated as I’m currently balding and I feel this crop is speeding the process
