i am having so many problems with the nutrients that came with bubbleponics system....

i think i may have f'd up my flowering as well....
im using a 6 pot bubbleponics setup. 2 plants grown with the nutes(micro, veg and bloom), that came with my 270$ setup from stealth hydro(grrrrr).:shock::shock:

ok , so i put the plants into flowering at about 4 weeks(been into flowering 5 days now), did i start too early? could this be the reason that my plants seem to have every leaf problem that ive read about?!?!? rust spots, yellow tips, brown edges, PINK rootsIMG00209-20101106-1940.jpgIMG00210-20101106-1940.jpgIMG00208-20101106-1940.jpg...holy crap everything

its starting from about and inch from the rocks and about 6 leaves are shot
crispy
rotten
spreading up my babies!!

holy crap what did i do?!?!

i flushed the entire system, h202(just a touch, first time too), took out the pump(roots are craaaazy long), set the ph and put em back. no nutes. been about a day now and really no improvement. as amatter of fact smaller babies on top a limey color. also these leaves are immediately showing with 7-9 leaves as opposed to the 3-5 i saw 2 wks ago.

am i totally funked?

someone come to m y rescue!!


thanks all for your help!!!

i would recommend running just RO water in there for a week or two and hope for some recovery (add some cal/mag and thats about it with your RO water).. Without a pic it will be hard to determine what went wrong.

Are you measuring your ppm and ph levels?

No worries on going into flowering early, you can go straight from seed if you wanted.

hows the temps?

sounds like some nute burn..

ur fucked... i'm not saying you didn't but maybe you should have done your research. paying that much for that crap is ridiculous. what i do in dwc is first put a black trash back in the container and put the water in. it is clean then you will have a good environment for your babies with out using h2o2 or bleach and crap. i use regular tap water and add fish dechlorinator. add nutes and ph. done. hope that helps and good luck friend

cut the dead stuff off, put back in veg and run 1/4 strength on your nutes... and hope for the best.. i think they'll recover

I dont know how you can go around telling people to " do their research," when you're going around recommending the use of tap water. Chlorine isnt the only thing that will cause you probs (do your research). Pick up some RO or distilled water at your local Walmart or Meijer. Also H2O2 also happens to be useful for more than just sterilize your water. It oxygenates it, and we all kno.... the more oxygen for your roots the happier and healthier they are.

ok check it out buddy if you are using tap water for one thats not good 5 gal of RO water at wal mart is like 1.25(like 2 ppm out the machine) if you have the jugs definitely use that. reason being if your not using a ppm meter your water out of the tap prably has about 200+ ppm of crap in it already(if its anything like mine) so if you go by the recommendation of the nute bottle and it says 1 tsp a gallon for early growth plants and you add that of course but if the bottle is anything like mine it also has ppm next to recommended dosage at 600 ppm so if your adding 600 ppm to existing 200 ppm water your actually at 800+ ppm which isn't good so just get the RO water run for a week (just water) then ease in the nutes bout 1/4 strength and i would cut off the burnt up leaves they wont recover anyway
hope this helps man
