And now the Flower Room.

Strain = SNOG (Columbian Gold x Jo's OG)
Flower Nutes: GH Series, Gro, Micro, Bloom, Kool Bloom, Cyrstal Burst, Orca, Flora Nectar, Floralicous Plus... Next Cycle we will be adding Diamond Nectar which is Humic Acid extracts.

PPM = 980 - 1350 (Any higher and they start to burn. I add 5 gallons of tap water if they go over 1300)
PH = 5.6 - 5.9 (I have found that the plants do not like to be close to 5.5. In fact they seem to do better if it is higher rather then lower).

Veg Nutes (This will be for the hemoy buckets as well): GH Series Gro, Micro, Bloom, Superthrive, Zone, Orca... and will be adding Dutch Master Silica.

- Side note on Veg - I checked the roots last night and they are not quite up to par. I decided to do a flush with only Sludge Remover and Orca. Tonight I will be adding some coconut water fresh from a coconut. Thanks, @hyroot .

Also, I filleted an Aloe Vera blade and scooped some into both Rez's.

Without further ado:

Oh yeah, I took some photos of the bottom buds. Obviously they are very small and not worth smoking... buuuuutttttttt. I was super impressed with how many trichs are still developing on these buds that don't even get a clear shot at the light. Kinda makes you wonder about the argument of moving leaves around, yadda yadda so that the light hits them directly. This just shows you even with in direct light the plant still wants to produce and grow... That is another conversation though and I am just sharing my observations.

Here is the rest of the Veg pictures from Yesterday. I took a shot of the roots that I am worried about. Also did some super cropping but went a little overboard. You will notice some branches have supports, sorry girls.

The Skywalker clones seem to be doing okay which tells me the mother definitely has something wrong in the root zone, otherwise the clones would continue to suffer.

@hyroot , I have a question for you. Would adding Aloe Vera and Coconut Water cause the Ph to rise in my PH? I added about 1 fillet and 3/4 of a coconut's water.

I droppped my ph down to 5.7 ish and today it jumped up to 6.8. I'm curious if coconut water and/ or aloe vera is actually a stabilizer (in soil) since in brought the PH towards the proper range in soil. In aero it isn't really ideal but that's why I check and adjust things.

Have you tried H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) in your res? What are your res temps. I have heard good numbers are 68 to 72 degrees. You don't want to get root slime.

Mine got too warm and went bad:




Cheers,
Mo

Hey Mo,

I use H2O2 but ran out about 3 weeks ago and stopped using it. My temps are at 71 right now. Rez change is on Tuesday. Will be bumping up the Zone and will make a run for some H2O2. I willl also be adding silica to their diet this week. So between the three I think we will be looking pretty good again in no time.

Are you using air stones? My air pump was blowing hot air and cooked my water!

Air bubbles and low temps should keep you OK. Avoid organic nutes too.
