Default beginning bubbleponic problems
first off im a first time starter and started this set up a week ago on 10.3.. all but la woman was a seedling popped out of the rockwool barely and la came up on 10.4.

i have 4 diff strains going: lemon skunk. pineapple express. white widow. and la woman.. right now i have a 150w sun system about a foot above the ladies. its a rubbermaid container a 4 site lid. i have an air pump running with a t adapter running one 12" air stone and a 4" disc air stone. a pump pushing the nutes up to the ladies 24/7. i really duno bout the nutes just do what im thinking is right. the ph is staying up around 7.0 and i keep putting ph down to lower it around 5.5 - 6.2. i have a 6" fan blowing on them at all times right now. i had the light on 24/7 but i just switched cycle to 18.16 today to test that out.

lemon skunk is the only one the isnt looking to its fullest. the color is okay not bright green but either are the others bright green. the leaves on lemon are shrivling up but no yellow burned edges or anything. i dont know what it is wrong. if you could help that would help me!! here are a couple pix of the project so far: cell phone pix so i know their not great will have digi in couple of days.

1. just a pic of the set up so far.
2. lemon skunk so maybe you can tell me whats going on with it!!
3. res
4. just showing the light above it(waiting on seeds for the kit next to it. but want to get this down before start any other grow water based.)

**legal note: i take no responsibility for these pictures as they are all over the web.

checked everything this morning. their not bright green and no signs of improvement. ph was about 5.2 i will be going back around 11 to check and if it hasnt gone up i will fix that with some water. the lemons leaves are still messed up and pineapple is starting to curl upward around the edges now. dont know what is going on. maybe light is to close?? getting too much water?? i dont know whats wrong. try diff nutes?

**legal note: i do not participate in anything dealing with marijuana. anything in this forum is found all over the web and i will not be held responsible.

Leaves curled down with yellow tips are over fed.

Leaves curled UP are too hot OR hungry and under fed.

I had the same problem. Your watering too often. Really, only NFT systems should be run 24/7. The Air pump should be run 24/7 on all systems. Try running the Nutes for just 30 minutes, every 3 hours or so. It gives the roots time to breathe. Split it up during your daylight hours. About 6 times a day for the first 30 days. Gradually reduce from there. Reduce that to 3 or 4 times a day when they get bigger, and the roots can sustain better. Good Luck,
Peace!!

IF this is a true Bubbleponics system, purchased from Bubbleponics, then the water runs 24/7 .
