Day 13!
Followed what falsebreed had told me and diluted, say i took around half the bucket out and added water that had been standing for in-case this happened or i needed to add h2o.
Diluted the ppm to 649 on both res's and the ph is now between 5.5-6.0 on both.
hopefully i have caught this in-time and they pick up, fingers X'ed
Peace!

my tap water cums out has 595 before i ad nutes etc........

seedlings dont really need nutes
since you have hard water
you should be using some form of cal-mag

one of them is rocketing away and the other is sort of just the new node in the middle is growing 0 lopside.
I changed the res's last sat and again today and last week i gave them a quarter strength, they dint really take well to it, so i diluted it during the week and this week i have just gave them 8ml for 13 liters.
I'm not fuk farting about taking pics now as im going work soon, but ill give a good picture show tommor and update. placed a 4"tt inline fan today see if it will cool it down, fuking hot weather.
Peace!

hey guys!!
fukin weather pissing me of i cant go out in it as i have terrible hay-fever and also the fuking sun keeps warming my tent up, no good!!!
Any way, updates....... one plant has began to go wild, notice a difference every time i look in on them, its got a few healthy white roots that have come through now.
the other one is growing weird, dont know why but when i look in the middle to have a look at the new node growing seems like its not there for some reason.
ph between 5.5-6.0
ppm 712 on the big one and 653 on the little one.
pictures!!!
first 3 are the bigger one obviously lol!!!
Enjoy and as usual comments and advice welcome!!!
Peace!

Been busy all day with my grow, time to chill and relax with a blue chesses jackey lol
why busy is i have done some diy dwc bucket and moved the tent across other side of room due to heat problems.
Yer originally i was going to use my 5 gallon white bucket but decided against making my own and bought 3 from hydro-hobby.
In the past 2 weeks i have emptied and super-glued the seal on the bottom several times on each one of them.
so i got sick and made two new using the net pot lid, cutting a large hole in the middle of the white buckets lid and stuck them together with gaffer tape, rapped the bucket in the same stuff as my tent, mylar reflective.
ppm 620-720
ph 5.5 - 6.0
Peace!

not trying to jack your thread friend.......greetings friends i have a question how much yield do you think i could get if i vegged for 2-3 weeks and then flowered im thinking 2 plants under a 400 watt hps or 2 under a 600 watt hps in a dwc system im trying to get the most bang for my buck im thinking of growing dinafem blue widow what would be the perfect tent size i am thinking a dr 90 i was also thinking of using fox farm hydro nutes all info is appreciated thanks guys and girls....peace!

HI all!
coming up to 3 weeks 2moro, so i have decided to FIM one of my plants.
Took around 80% of it off it seems like i have done it right comments welcome.
other one i have noticed just that i think the new growth is not growing upwards it is growing quite twisted and discobobalted!! put some pics up let me know what you think, still no signs of roots coming through on the smaller plant, plenty more on bigger plant.
ph 5.6 letting it drift slowly
big plant 721 ppm
small plant 665
Peace!

u need water filtration if your starting point (tap water) is above 150 ppm. get an RO system, also, a seedling should be getting no nutes the size it is now you could go maybe 250-300 ppm
