Day 24 of flowering for the BB
Aero res
pH 5.8
ppm 560
Temp 68
pH has been steady at 5.8 with this concentration
I’m going to switch to green leaf mega crop as soon as I run out of DG. It looks like people are doing well with it and it looks to be simple and easy which is very attractive to me. It is also waaaaaaay cheaper than DG. I’ll be able to run DTW, and have separate reservoirs for the veg and flower tent.
Before I change any equipment configurations I would run it as is for a while.

Idk, they look better than last time for sure though. I reduced the amount of water they get a while back and they perked up to where they are and pretty much stayed there.
I was having problems with my nutrients, and general lack of experience, which burned them a bit. They haven’t gotten any worse though so I’m thankful for that.
I don’t think there’s anything I can do at this point for them. The plants in my veg tent alright.
The light might be too close to the branches in the back, I’ve had problems if I let them get any closer than two feet to the light.

I ask as i had something similar, turned out to be too cold in my grow area on my first grow.

It’s about 75f with lights on and 70f lights off. I don’t think it’s the temps. Thanks for the info though, I’ve not had a problem with cold yet but anything can happen.

Im a noob, and know many things can cause droopy leaves from spending forever on growweedeasy so there's a good chance its something else ..i never thought it could be temps for my issue either, i had canopy at 75-83 with cobs but my tent was open at the top and none of that heat went further down with lack of heat generated from LED. As a noob on my first grow who checked all else, i just closed my grow tent area to circulate the heat instead of losing it all and the plant started drinking more, leaves perked up, an lockout of nutes all went away. Canopy area was still as warm but the roots weren't cold anymore. Turned out that was my only issue. Go figure Lol.
Whatever it is, your plants still look super healthy like they are taking up sufficient nutes and the droop is minimal. Best of luck with the rest of the grow.

Thanks dude, I measure temps right on top of my buckets. Canopy temps are about the same, I've got two fans in there, one above and one below the canopy so it keeps the air circulating pretty good. I go through about two gallons of water a day, sometimes more.
They're not where I'd like them to be but I'm also still a noob and learning all the time.
