My mates dog has a problem.
His setup
5 chronic in large 4 pot wilma, 1 Mother for clones.
GHE nutes 1.6 ec
Ph 6.0
Co2 750ppm
1x600 sunmaster sodium
1x300 red florry
1 airstone
1 mix pump, 1 heater......temps 86
His plants have been 12/12 for 4 weeks they are about 5 ft high and 3 ft wide give or take an inch, no signs of stress YET!!!!
He thought all was going well till 2 weeks ago when some light tan snot started appearing in res and mothers res (mother seperate from others), this stuff multiplied rapidly and so clogged the pumps, so he cleared them.... water changed.... re-nuted blah blah.
Slowly the situation began to escalate again, he had been very busy and unfortunately realized this morning that the drippers had clogged and the roots had turned brownish, the snot sitaution even worse.
He cleaned the res again, the pumps etc and refilled with pure water from filter and put cannazyme, rhizotonic, rootjuice as per instructions.....NO NUTES....
The ph was 6.0 and ec.08 he thought he would leave this for 24 hours as kind of a flush.
1 hour later the ec had rose to 1.8-2.0 ph the same?????????
Anyway he would appreciate your input as to the cause of :
(1) the snot and
(2) the apparent rise in ec with no substantial nutes. By the way there is no light getting into res. Thankyou
