So... is it NOT good to have your res in your room if you are using CO2?? I am newer and have just never heard of this??

I would love to be able to use the covers, but i hand water and that would be a pain i think.

Well i didn't update yesterday cause it was a long day and i was tired! Got the girls into their new home, with the grates under them, and temps up around 80. Can say that even this morning when i checked on them, they felt better! Blocks are still pretty wet, but there was a noticeable...

Was concerned about that a little but they will only be there for a couple weeks then its time for 12/12 i wieep ane eye on it though for sure though.

and really, i wouldnt go to 90f unless you were supplementing with CO2. 75-80f and you should be good. Also, not a HUGE concern, but the general concensus is you want a little higher humidity in veg (close to 60-70 if you can get it there). 20 is a bit low in my opinion. Other things that you...

i think i will make a trip to home depot and grab those grates that tenthirty suggested up above. Maybe getting them off the tray may help a little. Yeah, i can raise the temps.. its thier night right now, but i think i will kick it up to maybe 75 night and 80 day?

yeah.. 6x6. I think next time i might go 4x4 and see how that goes. maybe would be a little better for girls this size. I was thinking those stems seemed really purple! Will those turn green once the nitrogen is depleted a little more? Yeah.. i actually just went out and check and they are...

Everything is looking about the same as yesterday. Check the pics, but the leafs are feeling odd. They are very "paper" like. Soft and almost velvety. They feel dry. However, the cubes are still wet. if we were going off just the cubes, i would say they can go a day. What you think?

Thats pretty awesome! Good idea! THANKS!

i handwater with a pump and wand. I could just give them a good 5-7 sec hit??

Starting day 3 post flush. Girls still a little Droopy, maybe a little more than yesterday, but definitely think the color is getting better. Not sure about the "wrinkled" new growth - could be a little better, but definitely not worse! I am guessing that once these cubes dry a little more...

LMFAO!!!! well. if i have to admit, i am a bit OCD.. especially when it comes to my girls... and if i am being honest, probably a little too sensitive to a slight change or something just a little off (hypochondriac??)! lol Taking a breath and will update with more pics in a few.!! ;)

Good to know. Gonna write that one down! Decided that i would put my extra 70pint dehumidifier in there tonight and see if that can help pull some moisture out of those cubes. Its doubtful, but cant hurt. Humidity is still pretty good. got the humidistat set to 50 so we will see.

All should be on track now, but think i am going to get another table and spread them out tomorrow in hopes they will dry cause its been 2 days with no water and 75f temps and they are still pretty damn wet. Does the ph in water go up as it sits?

Hope so! but i dont honestly think they will be. i can pick them up now and lightly press the cube and water pours our the bottom. ????

It looked like in some of your pics that a few of the leaves are twisting? Especially the leaves in the background fo you 3rd pic. Every time i have had that issue (including right now) my medium's PH was way off. might wanna check the ph of your run off just to see. ??

Just wanted to update. Here are some pics. This is going on the 2nd day since the flushing, but these girls are just looking sad. Cubes are still wet though. Leaves seem to be MUCH droopier now but only on the ones that have really purple stems. Growth seems pretty slow as i havent seen a...

I have never used hydroton, always the rockwool croutons (which are great as long as you REALLY rinse and sack WELL prior to transplant) but have been curious about hydroton. Do you have to pre-saok and flush that too?

was thinking about this and wondering if i also should increase the size of my tray to spread them out which will give them more breathing room and the ability to dry better?? Right now there is only about 2 inches between my rows, but going down the rows, the cubes are all touching. (if that...

There isn't a level of PPM for tap water i would say is bad but it really depends on what is making up those PPMs that could harm your plants IMO. the water where i live comes out at 480ppm and its VERY hard (lots of calcium and mg), BUT i still hit great numbers. You can get a water analysis...
