    im just running house and garden aqua flakes a&b and cal mag..my plants are dieing

    I know this is an old thread, but I'm a long time H&G user who praises them normally, but I am suddenly having this same issue. When I do my normal mix according to the nutrient calculator my e.c is really low. This is the second run where I've had this same issue from the same 20L of A&B.

    Sulpher vaporizer users help

    Seems like there is a lot of confusion on here about PM and sulfur vapes. Here is some great info about PM, everything you need to know about it is on this site: http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn7494.html (search around on there too) As for the vape, I've found that for most PM...

    Cutting Edge Solution Sugaree

    I run it in a recirculating top feed system. Things get a little funky though. It's ph stable but I do notice bacterial blooms in my res. The plants love it. I'd be concerned about bacteria clogging your emitters though.

    Dwc, leaves browing

    If the tap water is 580 then you have some pretty hard water. Your most likely getting nute lockout from this. Your going to need an RO filter. There is also a hardwater version of GH 3 part nutrients micro, which may help of u use GH 3 part. If you use an RO then remember u have to add...

    house and garden top booster

    Mouse is right. Top Booster is designed to trigger a hormonal response. It basically tells the plant that it's dying. If you use it too early your plants most likely won't finish at their full potential. Same thing if you use Bloombastic too strong, too early. You get nice looking buds, but the...

    Burmese Kush

    Mine are at week 4 and within the past week my hairs have gone 30-40% red. I'm doing this run in a flood and drain system, the last run I did was in Sunshine#4 and I didn't notice the hairs turning red this early. I just started hitting them with Bloombastic a week ago at 1ml/gal and I'm...

    Something is going on here..(pics)

    I'm going to tell you straight up. I do a lot of consulting work in CO and CA for industrial grows. There is a reason none of them I have ever been in, run DWC. It's a major pain in the ass. I also run a huge hydroshop out here in Colorado. 85% of my DWC customers are always having issues...

    Help me pinpoint the nutrient

    Looks like N to me. Usually with N it will be a solid uniform yellowing like that on the bottom leaves and progressing upwards effecting larger older fan leaves first.

    purple leaves curling up look mangled *pics*

    Bloombastic has a lot of P and K in it. Strange that you would be getting a P or K deficiency if your using that. Also the CNS has got plenty as well. Some plants just go purple like that. It's their fall foliage. What's strange is the leaf tips, they look burnt as all hell. You sure your not...

    Plant is dieing! Help!!

    That stuff is really hot. I'd start out 1/4 to 1/2 strength and go from there.

    Something is going on here..(pics)

    Multiple deficiencies like that is either lockout which could be from PH, but I'm guessing you have some root rot going on if your water temp is near 80. If your PH fluctuates but stays within the desirable range it shouldn't be a major problem. RO'd water shouldn't swing like that though. Are...
