**jjburnout** · 03-12-2010, 01:35 PM

So its a sad day in my DWC world....... opened up the cabinet and the smell of rotting roots hit me in the face like a ton of bricks. After all the bull shit they have been through..Root rot. Im gonna leave DWC for my 2nd maybe 3rd grow.
I cleaned the good roots off, took the cubes out of the net pots and stuck those little fers right into a soil mix. I now have 4 healthy plants in soil under the 250watt MH and 3 under cfl's Im pretty confident that shit is gonna happen now.

Thanks to all the people that tried to help me along with the DWC. I have not given up though. I plan to try again with some clones from Trainwreck and church. I guess my journal is in the wrong section now...... lol

Ill post some pics this weekend some time..Cheers,
JJB.

hey brother...just got finished reading about dwc grow...sounds like a small problem or questions about feeding...this is the way i have been doin it for many years....What levels should I maintain for my hydroponic nutrient, temperature, pH and TDS/EC?
How do I tell if my PPM/EC is too high or too low?if my PPM/EC is too high or too low?
your meter won't lie and your plants will thank you...this is probably my first and last post here because i read these things for amusement and like to see all of the "new" things people come up with....makes me laugh... i like to bubble in buckets, just in case i have a problem(root rot) it's isolated to just one plant...if you use a tote don't mix strains...you can bubble just like anybody else...it's very satisfying looking @ that big mass of roots in the bucket...as a matter of fact ...it's the only reason for me not growing outside...oh yea, my version of LST is a 20' piece of 5/16 rope, a tent stake, and a 6lb beater....later
