Trying my first DWC simple 5 gallon bucket and some strawberry cough Sent from my SM-N975U using Grasscity Forum mobile app
is the water bubbling up through to the top of the hydroton? i swear i can see bubbles in the hydroton. the water level should be a few inches below the net pot
Water was too high, good call, lowered it have 3, 4" airstones so should be plenty of airflow and spitting water as for the EC and PPM I'm heading to the hydro shop today, i just threw this together last night cause I realized I had everything I needed (parts wise)and some rooted clones I'm potting tonight anyway, and PhD the water to 6.5 added some mykos ws, and will be grabbing ec/ppm meter and some GH nutes today, this is 1 bucket for my "learning/experimenting" as I usually run in soil Sent from my SM-N975U using Grasscity Forum mobile app

You don't have to worry about lighting when in veg, turn em' on when ever you need to. I run 20/4 the first 2 or 3 weeks of veg, then 18/6 for a week then 12/12
My veg tent is in a flowering room so @ mercy of flowering schedule Sent from my SM-N975U using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Redid the water with the maxigrow, ec 1.6, ppm 780-820, 5.9ph Sent from my SM-N975U using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Checked res this morning and the ph rose up to 8.5 does that usually happen? I thought the nutes would overall lower the PH? Anyway re-ph'd it to 6.1 this morning is that something I need to check daily? Is it going to wildly fluctuate? Sent from my SM-N975U using Grasscity Forum mobile app
