This week nothing reallly changed, i had a little problem with drainage but sorted it out, also didnt bother to check ph (mistake)

gspot0379 · Dec 29, 2008

This is where i began to see a problem
still no nutes and im having trouble with the rockwool not drying out, like atall is stays saoked, i took a few wet ones as a test and set them in a tray and they didnt dry for over 2 weeks (i need help with it bad) my fan is not helping, the room itself is rather cool . also in the week i didnt test the ph it was all out of wack jumped to 7 somehow

So i sorted out the ph issues and the drainage issues but still cand dry the @## rockwool cubes out..... they had a nice lil spurt once i added nutes

WEEK 4
---------

- 800 ppm Flora Nova Grow + Flouralicious
- PH Back to 5.7
- TEmp around 79
- Feeding 2X a day every 12 hours (cubes still dont dry out

will a bigger fan work or do i need a dehumidifyr or sulfer burner things, i wont have this prob when the flower because of the heat the 600w produces but i need them to last that long

Why are you worried about the rockwool spicoli!cover it up with more pebbles and get this:http://www.discount-hydro.com/productdisp.php?pid=208&navid=48,You want no more burnt leaves? This is what im using :http://www.hydroasis.com/hy/items.aspx?id=78&item=esu-greenleaves-nutrients,you need to read it to understand what im typein about.

This is at about 4.5 weeks i just recently upped the nutes to 1000 ppm Will report results in a couple days, i change a few things in week 4 like the pots needed to be burried in the pellets so the roots have a new home, they are still being flooded 2 times a day and are actually looking good

i noticed what looks like white mold on one of my cubes, so i covered the cubes from the light , its the rocwool that wont dry what do i do, i dont want to have destroy them, they are growing new healty growth daily
