Ok so I have four different strains going this is my first hydro and I'm 6 weeks in....
My strains are vortex, jilly bean, Apollo 13, and powerplant, I use a 1000w hps on a mover, in a e&f with advanced nutrients pro level nutes I keep the ph between 5.3-5.8 and try to keep temp at 70f....
So everything was looking great until 2 things happened 1st I was adding my nutes and realized I was short 50ml of the base about 10% so I figured it would be ok if it went like that for the night then in the morn id get the rest and top it off. (probably not the best choice I now know) so in between me filling my resivor and topping off the base my vacuum break got plugged so I think because my buckets overflowed some solution how much I'm not exactly sure. Here's where my first big oh no is I added the missing nutes not even considering that I lost water from the overflow so I burned them by doing this as soon as I figured out what I did I added quite a few gallons of h20 to my res to dilute it.
The 2nd thing that happened is we lost power for 12hours while I was gone so my plants sat in the dark with no water cycling for an extra 12hrs. I got a generator and got everything going ASAP
So now here's what I'm dealing with... On my jilly bean and powerplant the leaves are curling under and drying out until crispy I want to say from top to bottom one cola is even dried at the top but the buds lower seem ok ill get pics when I can but any help now is very appreciated.
I know on the first issue where I messed up the other I'm not sure any help or advice or even what I should have done differently is helpful thanks.
basically what should I do now and what should I had done?
