I've been vegging a few plants for 7-8 weeks and they are about 3ft tall and 2-3 ft wide.
3 of my biggest ladies drooped after draining/refilling my hydro buckets and have not grown at all in 3 weeks. Turns out I somehow messed up the PH in those two buckets after adding a new supplement. The ladies were sitting in 7.8 ph water for a few weeks. My roots seem to have a small bit of root rot as well although it's hard to tell from the dark nutrient stains.
A load of fresh roots have grown since but still no growth.
My second pump & 8 stones come tomorrow as well as my Canna anti root rot + Hydrogen Peroxide mix, so I guess that will sterilise any left over bacteria. A week ago one of the fans blew off the ducting for 6-12 hours & when I went in the grow room (8 x 6ft) & it was 29-30 degrees C. That visibly caused a bit of stress so I got temps & heat symptoms back to normal and still no growth! They look a bit weak and droopy still
It might be worth letting you know I picked off a few of the big fan leaves that were dying/drooping due to lack of oxygen.
it's been 2-3 weeks since I had a PH/Root Rot problem identified & I'm wondering if I should ditch them for a few vegging ones I have in my room (will add 6 weeks to the current grow).
What do you think? Will they recover?
