Wtf somebody enlighten me please

[DukeNastyNuggz]

Im new at this hydro thing. I have these super skunk from ILGM. Im using Humboldts Secret A-B. So for DWC you are supposed to use approx half right? It says 1ml=40ppm so the first 4 weeks say 5-9 ml per gallon. I Have 5galbuckets. So i use 4ml of Aand B respectively. Balance the pH to 5.5. Why are they sickly looking Room temp is 81° lighting is 18/6 with kingLEDsays 1000 watts but theres no way its like 250 max. Someone put me upon game please. Thanks

Too hot. Check your water temp. Check your roots.

Duke,

A pH of 5.5 is very low. Fungi love it. Raise the pH to around 6.5.

Zill.

he is on DWC
But i would still raise a little to PH 5.8.

Thanks Trash! I thought about that after I posted.

actually ph of 5.5 is tolerable, can go up to 7 though but I'd say 6.2-6.6 is a decent middle. I would also reconsider the ILGM seeds, they are not very good

I’m a new grower they say ph between 5.8 to 6.5 like to keep mine between 6.0 to 6.7

Chech your water level. Looks like the rooting plug is saturated. If the roots are long enough it should be an inch or 2 below the mesh pot. If the roots aren’t long enough have the water level 1/4-1/2 up the pot.
