hey guys, Today i officially finished transplanting my 80 Satori seedlings to my ebb&flow tables. I germ'd 100 seeds, 98 sprouted and of those 98 i chose the strongest looking 80 to move to my table. (the rest are still in my tray under 4 t12 flouro's till i figure out what to do with them.
I ran into a few problem these past few days with my grow op and i had to leave my seedlings in the tray using rapid rooter plugs for a few days longer than expected so they grew long roots. some had roots about a foot long! i carefully moved them into my buckets making sure not to damage the roots. and i moved my 1000 watt bulbs far enough so that i didnt feel the heat on my hand.
I corrected the PH of my reservoirs to 6.0. my ppm was at 250 with tap water. and i added a pinch of flora nova grow. the ppm after was 300 wich is 1/2 strength from what the bottle says. when i filled up my tables the ppm read 700ppm! the hydroton might have raised it but can someone tell me why it raised 400ppm out of nowhere?
should i empty out my res and just use ph corrected tap water for another week or two?
