PROBLEM: One plant Death (WW) (Severe Wilting from rot root) and it's happening to another plant (SLH).
Lights: 1 x Blackstar UFO UV 135W, 1 x CFL 2700K 120W
Temperatures: Max 80°, Min 73
Relative Humidity: 49% min, 62% max)
Current PH of SLH: 5.98 (Yesterday 5.73)
PH of WW when removed: 5.23 @ 1582 ppm
Nutrients: GH Flora Line Lucas Formula + Calmag + Hygrozyme
Nutrient Change every 3 days @ 1200 PPM
Pots: 2 Gallon Coolers adapted to fit 2" net pots filled with hydroton.
I had a perfectly healthy looking White Widow wilted in a 12 hour window,
The pictures of the roots were taken 2 days before. But when the lights went on it was like a stick with a green dress, I reckon a tear was dropped. when I finally killed her after trying to make her thrive for 2 days treating with H2o2 with no avail, I decided to prune everything and find the source.. it was rot at the base of the stem, brow color, smelled like shit, she was done.
As I sated I use 2" netpots filled with hydroton in 2 gallon buckets. I'm thinking the roots chocked as it happened just before full flowering triggered (pre-buds and everything) could this be the reason? People do NTF in 2" netpots just fine... it just looked like it was gonna explode so I may ask as my other DWC plants use 8" netpots.
I have another plant in the closet that's starting to wilt too and showing similar signs.. I used round coolers as it's impossible for a decent IQ'd person to find a black square pot with a lid for sale on the web that you could use for DWC, try it!!. I had to go with the stupid thermos (@"#)$/%"#).. anyways.. I'm not that naive not to expect differently from the current "alive" plant... so gonna take some clones, donate the coolers to charity and get square ones with 3 gal capacity and try again. At the end it was just a month of my life wasted.. no worries
I do have the doubt if this could've been the lights work.. it's intense and I had it like 4 " over
the top (not recommended) the leaves didn't look burned, they just gave up the next day..
Your help would be greatly appreciated!
