Omg i need ur formula please. I currently use a similar line and have just put in the
current culture systems. I have the 20 site 8gal for veg. They grow fine with super healthy white roots. Using H&G a&b, cal mag,
protekt, root excelurator, drip clean, nitrogen boost, and multizen. Btw i used it at full recommended dosage. I just discovered today after 3 months of using
current culture setup that there is this forum and that its recommended to only use half. My ppm in veg has been 800-1000 ppm. But its been perfect n growing fine.
Then i transplant them to flower. Leaves lights off for 24hrs. First time was to 16 site 13xl in 1 room. I put in my nutes. H&G a&b, root excel, drip clean,
bud ignitor,
bud candy, cal mag, pro tekt. 2 days later... root rot. Almost lost the whole crop, but saved it with h2o2 and
hydroguard as told by my local grow store. Although i saved it my crop currently looks like crap. Roots grew back but Small ass nugs and yellowing like crazy ass fan leaves. My ppm flowering week 1-4 was 1000-1300. Now all my fan leaves have yellowed and dried up. Then i added
big bud and now overdrive to try to get what i can outta them.
Then i go to veg another 20 plants and n of course they grew fine and beautiful again with same nutes but i added
hydroguard since it help me defeat root rot. When i go to transplant 9 of them to flower in another room 9 site 13xl. Used same formula as the 16 site but this time i added
hydroguard thinking i got this root rot defeated or i took the precautions to avoid it. Left lights off for 24 hrs again and came back to check on plants b4 switching lights on. See drooping leaves with yellow spots again. Check the roots and bammmmmm!!! Root rot again in a seperate system.
What am i doing wrong? Is it my nutrients?
Forgot to mention, these systems were all brand new from
current culture. I got a 1.5 chiller for the 16x 13xl site. 1/2 hp for the 9x 13xl site and 1/2 hp for the 20x 8gal sites. Water temps from 66-69. With airstones in each site. I ran h2o2 in them right after setup and let run for 2rhrs before draining and drying n vacumming all water n let dry with the lights.
About to harvest and veg is almost ready for transplanting to flower again, so i dont want to get root rot again.
Can it be the pumps supplied are strong enough? In my veg 8gal sites, the water return to the nutrient tank is super strong. But in flower its not as strong. Can that be the issue or is it when i carry the plants and they get exposed to the air? I was told i should wrap them or bag them up.
Or can it be dirty rooms with the air pumps sucking the bad air up and feeding them directly to the airstones right into the roots?
Someone please help!!! Omg im so glad i discovered this site todaywith so many
current culture growers!!! So much useful info. I was searching google for the past 2-3 months on root rot and
current culture, but never got results for this site. Wtf?
