    Okay weather forecast today!!

    Temp when I left
    77 deg
    58 humidity
    Ph 5.6

    10 hours later..
    77 deg with a high of 86 with a low of 75
    Humidity was at 36 with a high of 63 and I low of 32.
    Haha feel like a weather man

    That's included there night time temps and humidity there !

    Ph remained the same .

    Res temps were 71.3 when I got home. Allowed 2 more hours and it rose to 72 and I added my water bottles and right now it's at 69.5 dropping..

    Got temps down to 75 from 77 and replaced ice in my ghetto ac that was all melted. Humidity rose to 36 quickly.

    Plants are growing good but something is wrong .. Here's pics ImageUploadedByGrasscity Forum1402875609.914113.jpg

    New growth is slightly yellow too but then turns green and healthy..
    Other pots exactly the same

    Oh and Ppm at 640 and has stayed there or up to 670 . If my initial post said other wise it was a typo again because of my phone.
    What did I do ?.. :/

  4. Have your roots come through yet? It looks like damaged roots signs. Is the net pot touching the water? Are the clay balls drying out? 
     
  5. Roots are not out.

    I top feed 2 pints each pot 3 times a day of water from the res.

    The water line is right at the bottom on net pot maybe a half inch higher and hasn't moved much if any.

    Ph and ppm haven't fluctuated much tho... Should I too feed now? I'm afraid to since I've Ben home so it's only Ben once today.
    Thanx for all your help !

  6. Did a little digging in the pebbles and about 2 inches down sAw nice white roots stringy roots...
    Maybe it's just taking a while to get down ... Next time I need to put them in deeper?

    I also felt the Rockwell cube felt pretty damp but they started to show more green after 1 pint feeding each so I gave them another 1.5 each and we'll see how they go..

    Res temps at 62.6 have Ben for a couple hours now

    Still not saying the problems fixed by any means...

  7. I just read through again and see your ppm is 640, try dropping this to about 250-300 . I think your solution is just too strong for the roots to suck up water 
     
  8. Okay sorry if this a dumb question to that but in order to drop the Ppms do I need to clean the whole res? Or can I take out some water from the res and refil with plain ph water that I took out until it reaches desired ppm ? I thought I was a little high too I've just read a where from 3-650 is okay during veg.

  9. Also the plants got overall a lot greener.

    Even one on the bottom that was all yellow is about 1/4 green now.

    I still doubt those leaves will make it tho?

    I feed 2 pints 4x since I started feeling like something was wrong yesterday afternoon. So 5 total feeds since yesterday morning equals
    10 pints of 5.8 ph water at 640 Ppms
    It's now night time for my babies
    Let's see how they look when they wake up will update later

    Thanx a lot GoldGrower your the only one who has attempted to help me at all.! And actually have helped a lot . All ur advice and time is appreciated more than you know !

  11. What's up everyone !!
    Today's weather forecast.

    Temp high of 84 low of 70
    Humidity high of 55 low of 27
    Ph remains at a steady 5.8

    Water temp was 62 when I went to sleep at 10 pm last night and didn't change until temp reached 67.5 today at 100 pm. Then didn't change again until it reached 67.8 at 10 pm today.
    Two frozen water bottles usually drop it from 68 to 63 ish.

    Also built my scrog setup today. It is 12 inches from the top of the net pots a little higher than I wanted but it is what it is . Cost me 26$ at homedepot and 3 hrs to make.

  12. Trimmed off some bad leaves too...
    The big one that burnt in the middle I spilled water on when too feeding.. There's one more line that on the plant I left on.

    ImageUploadedByGrasscity Forum1402983473.009993.jpg

    My 150 watt hps ballast went bad.
    It's was built into the hood so I just removed it and wired it up for 120 and ran a cfl off it.
    Also removed the started inside here's pics if anyone's remotely interested in that lol..
    ImageUploadedByGrasscity Forum1403067075.836850.jpg
    With the ballast and starter

    ImageUploadedByGrasscity Forum1403067095.430808.jpg
    Without, wired up directly to 120 volts.

    Real simple and also realized my lights were 3ft away!
    Dropped the cfls to 6 inches.
    The 400w hps is only able to move up the way it is so, next grow I will next it fully adjustable. It's just to much of a hassle now.

    Everything looking great today still as far as conditions go ..

    Roots should be thru any day now??
    What do u think ??
    12 days from clones...
    7 inches of growth

    Have a wonderful night and...

  16. Are you over fert?

    Sent from my SCH-I535 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
     
  17. I'm sorry I'm a little confused on what your question is exactly?

  18.  
    Take about half of it out and top up with water. Check your ppm and get it no more than 300 and then adjust your PH.
     
     
     
    He's asking if you are over fertilising
     
  19. I will do that today..

    Also noticed last night a tiny bit of light gets in from the net pot thru the pebbles?
    It's not a lot is it anything to worry about
    Do u think I should just clean out the whole res then wait to clean again till flower?
    Ppm at 570 today ph 5.8
    Or just do as u said and clean before flower

    Might get another air pump too .. Saw some commercial ones.. I like those lol ! ;b
