BTK for root aphids. Kills them dead, doesn't harm the plant.
The merit will work. If your scared to run it get bayer tree and shrub, its a more diluted form of merit. One application recirculated for an hour will kill them all.
if your in flower you shouldnt use merit or tree and shrub
take the pissing match elsewhere fellas - lets keep this thread on point
whats BTK?
Things are definitely looking up. Looks like you caught the rot before it got too far, which is essential- and not easy to do, so props for that!
Start with a low EC and bring it up slowly, so your roots can handle it.
Be certain all the H2O2 is out of the system before addig any beneficial microbes, as the H2O2 will kill all microbes indiscriminately.
Remember that the colder your water is, the MORE dissolved oxygen it can hold in solution. This is good for beneficials and bad for rot, slime and pythium. Keep your res. temps where they are, or even a bit lower. Won't hurt a thing. I actually run mine at 64 with good results.
And one more thing; don't put the molasses or any other microbe food in the hydro water- it will feed everything in there, which could well include the nasty microbes you're trying to get rid of!
What worked best for me to keep humidity stable was to slow down the rate of air turnover. If air is cycling through the room too quickly, humidity never has a chance to build up.
I need to find a humidifier for my room, I have a 13 gal system now but I need at least twice that. Any suggestions would be helpful. I can buy another but space is valuable in the room.
I believe the air flow in the room should be maxed out day & night non stop, do not slow the air flow down the more air on the plants the stronger they get the bigger the stalks will become & then bigger the buds, heaver the buds get the bigger the stalks needs to be in order for the plant to hold the buds up to the light with out drooping over by weight... make sure you have occulting fans on HIGH..i use a fan in each corner of the grow room...so i have 4 of them..on high.. that represent the wind outside.....and if your plants are long and skinny is because you dont have enough wind to make a plant trunk bigger and stiffer..which in return permits you to grow bigger plants without having them fold over by the buds weights... :bong2:
when Rh is too low the stomata wont open properly. You have roots in water but the plant thinks its in the Sahara desert drying up. Its trying to protect itself by conserving water,ie: stomata staying closed to prevent transperation. It gets all cornfused.
I think too much air in these conditions is defintely gonna worsen the situation. Keeping airflow to a safe level for the plants to not get stale may work better. It will save a few precious RH % points that you could need.
IMHO

yes colder the better i have my water at 60 going to 55 next round & the same with my room... colder the better, i am sorry for the pissing match ttystikk... :passingjoint:
Below 60 is going to seriously adversely affect growth.
He said that he needed a humidifier, air flow will act to dehumidify.
Also these pics are with no "wind," i disagree with the above statements completely.
