my plants are now 24days old from germination it is my first ever grow & would like feedback on how my roots look as I'm not expect also using straight tap water...
What kind of nutes?yur roots look alright but if u would of kept water levels higher longer they wud of been fuller.u do wanna drop water level as that and water temps=root rot.n ive grown dwc for 10+ yrs now n ive never disenfectd anything..i use synthetics..just wash stone,airline thats in solution,and bucket weekly..basicaly dnt b a scrub.ha.the key is having a great pump..i use 60gph in 4gal of solution...i have 300gal pumps n flower rm(4outlet).just keep tons of air going,and cold water u wont hav root issues
ha.when did i say stretch?lmao.sound like my ol lady changing words up.lol.good luck brother/sisterThe theory that you need to drop the level so the roots will stretch is utter misinformation.
I'm using fox farm the whole set what's your opinion on them ?What kind of nutes?yur roots look alright but if u would of kept water levels higher longer they wud of been fuller.u do wanna drop water level as that and water temps=root rot.n ive grown dwc for 10+ yrs now n ive never disenfectd anything..i use synthetics..just wash stone,airline thats in solution,and bucket weekly..basicaly dnt b a scrub.ha.the key is having a great pump..i use 60gph in 4gal of solution...i have 300gal pumps n flower rm(4outlet).just keep tons of air going,and cold water u wont hav root issues
Woaaah definetly gonna raise my levels how high should it be & it's got a lot bigger since that pic I'll update tomorrowView attachment 693497 Idk bout wrong way.this is the safeway tho..my plants only 3wks from dropping roots.ha
I've been using voodoo juice I had come across clear Rez but was only gonna use for flushing ?? & ive got h202 but only 9% Lool So don't use itAre you using any sort of disinfectant? I'd stay away from adding ANY beneficials or organics, and use a hypochlorous acid based disinfectant like UC Roots or Clear Rez and keep adding it every 2 days like clockwork. Unfortunately, I gained some valuable experience from these issues.
Yes, it's possible to use bennies in DWC, but it's not easy. I wouldn't recommend it until you really have the hang of everything else. It's a precarious balance between o2, water, temp, nutes and pathogens. If you aren't chilling your solution then DEFINITELY maintain a constant disinfectant level.
29% or 35% H2O2 is good as a treatment but not as a disinfectant because it is so easily reacted and converted to H2O and O2 leaving no residual disinfectant. H2O2 also is very reactive and easily burns skin and mixed too strong or spilled, it can do a lot of damage to the plants and roots.
Your roots are looking good - and so often in DWC, the first few weeks go well - then root rot... It's probably the most common cause of DWC failure. Use the disinfectant BEFORE an issue happens (if you aren't already that is...). Often, once it hits it either too late to recover, or it's cost prohibitive for the time it takes.
dont kno nothing bout it.i use techna flora"recipe for success"hav my own schedule..basicaly for each strain,they tell u what they want.I'm using fox farm the whole set what's your opinion on them ?
if it was me id b 1/4" below netcup.tickle some more roots outta her then drop levels.after i drop levels i just feed what they will drink n a wk that way every wk im not dealing with full 18gal totes.Woaaah definetly gonna raise my levels how high should it be & it's got a lot bigger since that pic I'll update tomorrow
Actually yur pics proved what i said.if u keep the water levels higher...longer...they will b fuller....lmao.n yur pics prove that stupid..c if u can change those words around.
here's how my roots are getting a long I've noticed thicker roots coming is that the start of it turning trunk like. Also what you think of my levels ??Ill quit messing w/ u and just finish with this,i never hated on u brother..if my pics offended u for whatever reason i dnt giv a shit.wasnt meant to degrade yur style.i got my own.i wrk off common sense.plants aint all that scientific...when yur water levels r high(like yurs) its my opinion thats crazy retarded.(again just my opinion,n if u take it some kinda way idc)i wud bet money high water levels means yur rockwool/starter plugs(whatever u choose to start clone or bean)is wet all the time...thats not good n thats 1 way u get rootrot..would you plant a mj plant in the wild n a ditch?probably not right..well yur staulk n medium is basicaly in that situation.love or hate it thats a fact...goodluck to everyone on here
