Is your foil covering the tops of the pots. because if it is you're suffocating them. Plants take in oxygen through their roots

Also what's the temperature at foil level?

well right now i dont have anything to gauge the temp im gonna try and get one later today after i get paid or something . but the foil cover up on the tops ill defiantly make some arrangements .

i mean does it look like they are done for or do i still have a chance ?

okay so im thinking of changing the rez one of my homies said that could also be the pro its been sitting on the same water since monday with nutes in it and he said the ag nutes can be a prob if its left in there for to long

well after changing out the rez things seem to be better no more dropping so i guess we'll see what happens

Oh yea if anyone can point in the direction of a good aG setup that'd be coo cause i gotta do something to get these babies growing good

theyre not far gone relax...just get rid of the tin foil and whats your temps?do you have an isolating fan(good air circulation)......i have no xperiance with hydro tho so ii dont kno wat kind of lil problems u guys incounter....if it were soil the drooping would be from heat or overwatering

well im getting rid of the tin foil tonight and im getting a temp gauge tomorrow but on the brighter side they is looking better oh and yea i wen out and grabbed a fan its a small one .

Questions.
should i have the fan blow directly on the plants or just put it in the room to move the air around.

and i have another question, when i was changing the rez somewhere along the time when i was putting the top back on some of the roots got tangled along the bar on the inside so some of the roots are above the water level and im not sure i can untangle them without tearing the roots so i guess im trying to ask if im still in the good?

oh hears some pics

here is some pic

If the fan isn't too powerful, have it blowing indirectly on them. This will promote stronger stems so they will better support buds later on.

I have two fans in my room, one blowing on them that is set to go off when the lights do, and one that runs constantly, circulating the air in the room.

Your roots will be fine.

word i think im gonna have to do that then good looking out homie.


Oh another note i was thinking about putting the AG near my widow or at least in a spot that gets light from the widow during the day and moving it back to my bathroom when its time for its dark hours ( i would be moving it very gently of course) .

I mean that would help with co2 and getting it more light an all that just wondering if anyone thinks it would be a good move to make.

cause the crib im at has no houses behind it .

oh and how do you turn off the AG pump i keep hearing that it causes problems ?

any feed back is as always appreciated

have air blow on them gently or have it circulate strong enuff that the leaves move from the breeze...seen..theyre looking rejuvinated...after every storm theyre must be sun

What you can do is get a figure 8 cord from radioshack (they're only a few bucks) and plug it into the AG light so the pump and lights are on separate circuits. Then just unplug the entire AG when the roots hit the water.

Putting your AG by the window will be OK. Just don't forget to move it back during the dark cycle, don't want to get any hermies during flowering.

word good looking out

more pictures coming soon

got little homies chillin near the window now , im gonna try this for a few days an see if it makes any time of significant difference to my babies .
