so the shit leaves are Ca def
but the new tips are burn

that tells me that we need to back off a little on the ppm
Homie is good with this
he is really good with DWC

but in any case

this is a great experience for you
take note of all these signs and for future things will be very easy to detect and know what need to be adjusted

IMExperience
you never need CaMg
EVER
you either need to adjust ph or up nutrients
so you upped nutrients...Ca def is gone but nute burn is here....that tells me that we need to adjust in the middle
which will be perfect with the CNS17
very stable and easy nute to use as it is a 1 part....very simple

Here are the girls together - and overall the don't look bad. #2 is quickly out-pacing #1 ... especially considering the start the poor thing had!

Here are the spots on #1 (at roughly 7 o’clock and 8 o’clock positions), and now I’m seeing something going on with some of the very tips of other leaves too.

On #2 the spot is JUST starting on the leaf that’s pointing almost directly left - that’s how it seems to always start on #1

Also, on #2 some of her edges are looking a bit, well, “crispy” - almost like a nute burn but that doesn’t seem right.

any of those big leaves that are touching the rocks
snip them and clean it up

also those plants are just TO compact IMO so the raised light will be great...let them stretch some

Ok - 350ppm of CNS17 with (1/4 tsp?) of +life for the 6 gallons ... I looked at the bottle today andnit said 1 tsp for 10 gal so I was wonderingnif maybe I needed 1/2 tsp instead

it says 1gram per 5 gal I believe on their website https://hydroponic-research.com
I use 1/8-1/4 tsp and my roots are ridiculous....so it is all good
make it last for you
a little goes a very long way
agreed! I use a pinch..
yrs ago, we would do a lil bump.fri night shift at the factory :)
Stick the knife in, get a lil bump, bang,
thats all you need for 6 gal..
What are these plants again?
I forgot?

Ok gents ... ladies in newly nuted water ... 360/370 ppms (the meter kept bouncing back and forth) ... and ph at 5.5 ... +life added in ... and per Homie both rooters got some of the mix drizzled over the rooters and through the hydroton.

Edit: Question: @Homie Da Clown , you said the water level should be JUST at the bottom of the net pot in the DWC, yes? Well when I put the water in tonight I looked at where the water was based on the level mark and that level put the net pot about and inch INTO the water ... could that have been slowing her growth? I removed enough water so that the bottom edge of the net pot barely touches it now.

Yes it could of..

Ok then - guess I made the right call in dropping the water level a bit :-)

*is taking LOTS of notes today!!!*
That is exactly what’s happening and the blotching is due to the water level IMO. Not sure I would do anything different with the WF as it looks good and is doing great, I would stay the course with her but yes you can drop the EC in the other re tips, once it is healthy (not quite there yet) you could up the EC a bit and watch the tips. I run with just a bit of the tip off colored but never push them to much.

Yeah my girl in the WF is a becoming quite a little monster ... making Mommy proud *lol*. Now my other gal needs some attention to help her grow big and strong ... and hopefully we’ve now identified two possible problems to keep an eye on. I’m not sure what made me think to check the water level against the net pot in the DWC, but pleased with myself for having thought to do it (@Homie Da Clown must’ve gotten inside my head on that one)!

The WF girl is to the point that she can take lots of water (if lots of DO) but not the other. It will be fine though now as you’ve passed the point of survival and now at the tweak stage ;). I honestly think your whole issue was water and everything else was somewhat ok, still not sure about ph but hey it’s better lol. I’m looking forward to see how the life works though. Maybe I can get that here if I look hard lol. I’m trying to locate bulk Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (same as hydroguard) but Monsanto (really hate their buisness model) is the only approved manufacturer, I may have to dance with the devil for this one :(.

Did you like the root porn I posted yesterday *lol*? I couldnt believe the difference in just a few days. And yeah, now its time to start tweaking once things settle from this new change to the gals. A few days should tell me what I need to know!

As for your dance with the devil, sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do!

With the auto things move quick so that’s a good thing ;), there are a few slow cycles where patience is truly a virtue but with auto’s there will only be the urge to pull it before it’s time lol. And yes the root mass is great on the WF ;). 99% if the threads that I see here with a blotchy new plants is over watering, both hydro and soil.
