Thanks Kingrow1. It's my first grow and it's hydroponics at that so I am just learning from experience as well as from all the great advice on the forum. So far it's like learning to drive an exotic sports car or bike. When things are good they are great, but things can go wrong fast as I've...

Yeah that blows about the yield. And I don't think the light gets through the lid but I'm not 100%. I am using the white netpot lids. I check my res temps and they stay below 75 and average around 68. I've heard about hydroguard but haven't done any in depth research on it.

I hope all this stunted growth doesn't ruin my harvest.

Not much difference really Budley. They still have that awful color. I am however still seeing fresh "white" root growth even out of the tangled brown ones. Seems like they are getting better though The roots have a slightly rinsed off look and appear a little cleaner than before. Here are a few...

Here is an update on the Sheilas guys. As you can see I've had some pretty good growth. I thought it was gonna take forever for them to rebound but I guess not. Thanks again for all the opinions and advice guys. As you can see it goes a long way.

Sorry for the delay guys. The struggle is real lol. And yeah JDog I did a whole res flush and clean. That big bloom from Fox Farm might be good for some but it just made my res and roots a total mess. It stained them all brown and left a nasty residue from all the organic stuff. A bunch of fan...

Will do asap Budly.

So a day later my TDS level went up approximately 100ppm. The PH also swung way high to 6.5. Couldn't tell if the water level had changed noticeably. Based on the chart J Dog gave me that would lead me to beleive my plants are leaching excess nutrients.

Thanks leather lung. When I was trying to diagnose them it was easy to be a hypochondriac but I did think it was very possibly many deficiencies and toxic. My guess is I jumped up in ppms way too fast by overfertilizing and in turn caused ph swings that could have even played a role. Im trying...

Wow and I thought I had hard water lol. Your advice is invaluable like thanks again man. I'll def be keeping posted with some new pics to let you know how it goes. Now that I've done some research Silica seems like a great supplement for a new grower like myself to invest in to help protect...

I have read I shouldn't or might not need cal-mag with tap water because of the dissolved solids in it already. However I ordered some AN Sensi-Cal as well as some AN Rhino Skin. Will these help or am.I just doing too much at too fast? Also, can I mix these Advanced Nutrients products with the...

Sorry for the delayed response That's an awesome chart with some damn good info J Dog. I have some issues regarding ph and ec. I dont have a filter yet but my tapwater that i use comes out at approximately 200ppm "haven't tried converting it to ec since I thought they were 2 and the same"...

I'm new in general. I got Jorge's growing bible and have read it however there is just so much vital information actually attained through experience. I understand what you are saying and while you may be right and I might crash and burn a few times, I feel pretty confident and up to the...

My roots are def swimming now. I have been running the drip for now just to kinda flush out my entire rootzone. I'll def take your advice on the ph and allow for the swing.my solution temps stay between 62 and 66. I'm using the Fox Farm trio right now. I've been letting it flush for a little...

I read many different deficiency guides such as and including the ones posted in multiple areas. Its a bubbleponics system with top feed. Im more confused as to what the problem could be as the symptoms look similar to many deficiencies. I keep th ph between 5.5 and 6.5 and let it fluctuate...

Can anyone identify this? I'm not sure if it's a nutrient deficiency or nutrient burn. I can add more pics if necessary.

Okay thanks. in the essence of not redoing too much to save money, do you think it would be reasonable to snip out some of the inner pieces to make the holes bigger?

So like a dummy I used a trellis net with 6" squares as a feable scrog attempt. Any advice on my new DIY scrog. I used some construction snow fence and 3/4" pvc to to make it. My only concern is that now the holes may be to small for the plant to get through it or that it blocks too much light...

The trellis netting is trash. I'm making one with chicken wire and a wood frame so it's adjustable. My mistake was trying to use all the openings like stupid rookie and not growing 3 to 4 plants. Its half of a 4x8x7 tent "so 4x4 effectively". Im looking at an 8 bucket RDWC system and 2 more 1200...
