Hi guys, I'm new to forum but I'm having a couple issues with my little lady (I'm hoping). I'm using a 400w Cfl light, with a 5 gallon dwc setup, using bio thrive, and magi-cal. I started my nutrient mix with reverse osmosis purified water to guarantee a good ph off the start. I keep the nutrient solution at a constant temperature of 78 +/- 2 and my lady is in a 6" net pot filled with hydroton. She's about 3 weeks old, the roots look nice and healthy but it seems like growth has stalled. I'm also getting a yellowish color near the edge of the leaves and the tips of the leaves are browning. Slight purple the stalk too. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I hope I've provided enough info. to be helpful in finding insight
I'd work on getting something even a super cheap one like 30 bucks. Gonna be really hard to get things right without it. If you aren't gonna have one. I would go about quater strength on your nutes
Let it swing up to 6 or 6.1 before you correct it, lost of nutes are locked out in the 5.5-5.6 range. I adjust my res to 5.8 when I refill and don't touch it until I have to fill again.
Just a little bit of a visual update. I feel like my nutrient solution was a tad bit strong at first. She's looking much happier these last few days
Not to knock your hustle but I hear with hydro and dwc the plants tissues a lot more sensitive you may want to wear rubber gloves when handling your bitches
Soo, it's been a couple good weeks now. Just topped her a couple times and put her to bed for the night..
