I have tested the spring water prior to adding into the res, its around 74ppm. Does anyone suggest a ppm pen brand? I was thinking about getting the ones where you leave them in and the lcd screen you mount on the outside somewhere for constant reads. The one thing I have noticed with this...

So I have a new girl starting. I just added the first nutri to the res, very low strength. I have 5 gallons of spring water in the res and added 5ml of micro and 7ml of grow. I checked the ppm after adding and it was 3050ppm. The ph is 5.9 I do not understand why it would be so high with...

Should I dilute the res and add a few mls of micro? I cant add it now or the ppm will be to high thats why Im confused on what to do.

So I can not get my plant healthy. Its a flood n drain setup, 150watt hps, using bottled drinking water and advanced nutrients. She is in flowering and probably has about 3 weeks or so left. The ph i check daily and does not change and the ppm is 856. I had the ppm a little higher, around...

thanks for the info. I was actually looking into Great White when I was reordering my nutrients. I will look into the silicate for the next grow and see how it goes. Last harvest I had white mold and that was a killer. It took like half of the weight but I still used it in baking. I did...

thanks for the help. im going to empty the res and start with a half strength and see how it goes. Where can you pick up 30%? I have never looked in stores for peroxide strengths

I will take another look for tiny bugs. Do they leave anything behind, like webs or shit or anything? The roots are laying open in a large resevior that gets flooded when feeding. I did put a few hydroton balls under the roots to lift them to help the water drain out from them. I have been...

tap water is too hard and has a high rust content, i wont even drink it. Can I use drinking water bottled?

That could explain why my plant looks like hell. I need to add a lot more nutrients to her res. Thanks

I am about to pull out my teeth if I can not figure this out. I have a drain and fill setup, 150watt hps, 5.8-5.9ph level, using distilled water with advanced nutri, feeding 3X while lights on. She is also in flowering for 5 wks so I do not know what I can spray. She looked beautiful until...

Im not sure when it comes to coco but have you tried increasing your mag/pa? I add espon salt to my res but I dont know what you would add sorry

I looked under microscope for mites and none. That is what I first thought actually when I saw the spots the first time. Any idea about the fungus on the roots? I was going to empty and clean out the res and add some peroxide. I was not sure when I add the peroxide if I should add nutrients...

I have a TDS-3 meter and am not sure how to read it. It states it reads from 0-9999ppm however on the screen I am getting a reading of 124. Does this mean its really 1240ppm or actually 124ppm?

I am about to pull out my teeth if I can not figure this out. I have a drain and fill setup, 150watt hps, 5.8-5.9ph level, using distilled water with advanced nutri, feeding 3X while lights on. She is also in flowering for 5 wks so I do not know what I can spray. She looked beautiful until...

I was wondering how do I just add calcium to my res? I have been having trouble getting my girl healthy and I think it is do to a calcium def. I know espson salt can be added so sodium, but what can I add to raise the calcium?

It is on a timer to flood the top container. I have been getting mixed answers though on how to get her healthy again. Some people say that the nutrients are too high, others say that they are too low. I weakend then strength the other morning and I notice that more of the leafs are getting...

thanks. I added a gallon of water to the res to cut the strength. I guess Ill see how that goes. Maybe do a flush and see if this dilution does not seem to help. Thanks

I have a drain and fill set up. I am watering only 2x now in flower stage but it looks like over watering. Should I actually let the roots dry out before feedings? I know its a dumb question but im lost on what else to do to get her healthy again.

yeah its hard to see in the pics but when you look at the overall its noticable.

Sorry I meant 5.8 for the ph. Also here are a few pics. It is hard to really get a clear iamage of what is going on but you can see the tip curling and the browning. Should I clean out the res and just flush with water for a day or 2 watering 4 times during light cycle? I always thought...
