Possibly consider a silica treatment for your setup. Im told this acts as a great ph buffer as well as allows for your plants to sustain higher heat levels as well as stronger stems. try your best to keep ph levels in between 5.5 and 5.8. Also topping off your res with fresh water daily it keeps the ph levels and ppm levels steady always do this before adjusting ph
Otherwise the Dyna-gro i use doesnt require me to check my ph but everytime i change my res weekly (i used to check and adjust daily).
Check your roots to ensure no root rot is occurring you want white or slightly yellow(on older bigger roots). As your room temps are a little higher than what the plants without co2 should like. Bacteria will grow in your tank if kept above 74 degrees w/o enough Dissolved oxygen. Also keep in mind for veg your RH is a little low. humidifier from a thrift store or craiglist can easily fix this
im trying to keep an
Optimal Temperature: Between 70 - 85 degrees Fahrenheit (21 - 29 degrees Celsius). (anything over 79 recommends Co2 augmentation) **actually my temps stay below 75 now**
Optimal Humidity: 60 - 70% rH for vegetative growth.
40 - 60% rH during flowering (lower rH helps to reduce the risk of fungal contamination on your already moist dank buds).
80 - 90% rH for rooting clones and cuttings (high humidity is a must as these new plants may not have roots to draw moisture through).
I also wouldn't recommend 45 minute off. it only takes 15 minutes for roots to dry out and die. ive played with enough clones that were rooting out of rockwool to watch them dry out.
