Newbie with a problem (possibly nutrients)

1) Growing indoor
2) Plants are on a drip system
3) Clay medium
4) x2 600 watt MH
5) 15 days in veg phase
6) Nutrients at 1.3 ec
7) PH 6.0


Had a heat problem where plants were stessed for 2 days when fans shut down, corrected problem but now having problems with flucuating pH & ec levels. Nutrients went as high as 2.7 ec on one day. Flushed system & now ec & ph are as above.

Need opionions as to what else i can do too help my babies survive?

Not much else to do, that's just heat burn, not any nute burn o deficiency. Just take care that your plant won't be exposed to high temps any more, maybe mist a little water under the leaves (not above, may also cause heat burn), but that's basically all you can do.

Temp is 26.7C during the day, concerned as ive checked the pots & only one plant has roots through the basket, could i have damaged the roots with the heat & should I increase my airflow into my grow tent?

Also should i trim the damed leaves?

Thanks for any help.

26.7C is perfect. You should worry about temps that go over 35-38C.

Don't trim the leaves.

how dew you measure ph or ec levels ?

I use a ph pen to measure the ph & a bluelabs truncheon for the ec.


Thanks for the help.
