I took out the manifold tubes and all the other day. The roots are very well in the water. The ones coming up are probably running from the nute soup in the tank. The basically just has base nutes in it now, A little lower than 550. I won't screw with the PH until 6.4.
I should have known something was wrong when it seemed they stopped drinking water and the PPM didn't go down either.
I've been freaking out a little too much I'm sure. Ran out of
...and it sucked. Mellow now though.

Hey, Rose! Those bubbles are mezmorizing! Take a toke! Look at the bubble! Take a toke! Look at the bubbles! Take two tokes! Bubbles become bluring! Take three tokes! Where the bubbles go!

IF you trim them right, you'll get enough kief (removed trichomes) from the scissors and your fingers to get you tore up , not counting the oil you can make from the fan leaves.
And I just bet you go ahead and smoke a bud after it drys.

Just smokes a bowl laces with the leaf oil from the Iso hash. A completely different trip. That iso has doggy downer (CBD) effect big time! Smooooth! And pretty much free! $2 of ISO for 6 grams of hash! Life is good!

There are 2 simple ways that have worked well for me.
The first is using neoprene discs in your tub and no hydrotron or rockwool. This is how I do my clones. Make the cuttings just long enough to barely touch the top of the water and that you have enough air stones so that there is bubbles directly inder your nets. Just the water from the bursting bubbles is enough to induce rooting and keep the cuttings healthy.
For seedlings or anything in rockwool I simply overfill my dwc tub to the point that the netpot is roughly 1/3 submerged. many people will argue root rot, but as long as you have air directly under the pot, it doesnt seem to happen. I have had several seedlings with soaked rockwool in my dwc that were saturated for weeks to a month and have never had one die from root rot. Try one out with your strain(just 1) and the results may suprise you. I would not reccommend this with a single small airstone on a small pump. Here is a pic of my tub again just so you get an idea of the air I use.

Hell yea bro thats a good technique.Do you use a rooting hormone such as clonex?There are 2 simple ways that have worked well for me.

I use RootTech Rooting gel. It came with a nutrient set I got. Doesnt seem like it does too much since the water in the tub seems to wash it of in a couple of hours. But then its in the water I guess. and both ways have never let me down, but I know I push more air than most people. The pic above, that tub has two General Hydoponics Dual Diaphram air pumps running those stones.

edited above, but if you missed it, I'm using 2 general hydroponics dual diaphram air pumps running those 8 stones. 4 stones per pump. I now have 4 of those pumps: 1 in my cloning tub, 2 for my flower tub, and 1 for my hydro mothers. It also seems that with this much air, res temps dont really seem to mater. My flower tub usually stays between 73F-78F and my veg tub gets above 80F all the time with no negative side effects.

Hell no they not supposed to those are good numbers.

air is where its at. Im running the ecoplus dual diaframs. in my 14g tote I use two of them running a total of 8 10in stones. when I had the feeder tubes and pump runnig it was hard to get my res temps to stay below 78. once I took the tubes out and shut the pump off they dropped down to 72 within a couple of hours and have stayed there since even in the hot weather. I couldnt believe that the nute pump would run that hot it is a 240gph though.but even with the higher res temps I never had any root issues. hey and why the hell cant I get the bubblehead logo in my sig I have tried a couple of dozen times and it never works.

Yea i fgured that the pump would make the water hotter for the simple fact it has moving parts in it which makes friction that causes heat.

hey when you guys count the days thet you have been flowering do you count right from the day you started 12/12 or from the day they started to show flowers?
