ok this is my first grow indoors and hydroponic. ive had 5 awesome seasons outdoor so lets see what i can do!
comments appreciated but will be deleted to keep journal clean. the setup i started with changed alot. but heres what im using now. system is a flood sys. res. 30gal grey opaque tub on top of that i have a 18 gal grey opaque tub sealed off with black plastic around the edges so no light gets through. waterpump is for an outdoor fountain. 250gal/hr @ 1ft high and is pumped through a 1/2in hose (black). lights are 4xcool blue cfls @ 27w each(plan to add more as they get bigger). pots are a 1qt plastic mesh with bcuzz 1/4in rockwool cubes. nutes, gh 3part micro, gro, and bloom, also using superthrive. 1fan doesnt oscillate but has 3 speeds and does the job. since im using cfls and my house has no heat im using an electric heater for heat and humidity. thats it. will post the pics i have soon but have to go for now. |

plants are looking a lil worse, curl got worse, fiugured out im overwatering.
cut back for a few days and flushed my system b/c i was over nuting. also changed the res to an opaque one. |

taken on 3-7-08 at 915pm. plants are looking more like what im used to seeing for hydro grows in my research. leaves on the bottom have yellowed and died so i cut them with a pair of pruning scisors. watering schedule started havent figured it out completely, but will as i go. i need to water them earlier so i did but i have to watch and wait till i need to agian to figure out how often i need to.
plan to repot in a couple of days. plan on getting hydroton to give the roots the optimal space they need to grow properly plus i can bury those damn stems. HA! well let me know what you think and advice would be appreciated! |

it could be normal. it could be stress. it could be lockout
just gotta watch it, but dont overwatch it!!!! please get some covers for your pots as the light is giving algae life in your media!!!!!! |

I heard purple stems are a sign of low temps - but can't verify. the first set of pics - your media was covered as LB suggested - did you remove them permanently or just for the pictures (he is right - they should be covered).
