Do you prefer the dwc or the hempys ?

Well at this point the DWC. I can’t access my hempy reservoir to drop my PH. I have to run more nutes through my system to get it to drop.

It's mostly mag. Calcium is immobile, shows up in new growth. Mag and K are mobile and will usually hit the bottom to middle first, except mag. Mag will hit everywhere because it's so vital to photosynthesis.

I'm fairly for certain you have to back off on K. If you add mag, you have a good chance of locking out calcium. If you add calmag, you stand a good chance of lockout. If you back off on K, mag and cal should open back up.

Or just flush and restart?

Added 1 ml of calmagic already...

Should have let us toss in 25$ each for a wedding present. Wonder how many 96s would I need to cover a 2x4

Two 96’s and some far red for flowering, just the 96s for veg...a dimmable driver is a must, as well as a lux meter...

Qbs would do it too, about 240-480 w, and a qb 18/35 per pair of 288s or equiv....will run at 20-30% less watts for same ppfd...but somewhat smaller nugs than 96s, still same grammage, tho...cuz qbs will give more nugs...

How much of a step up is that from 4 132 v1?

How many would I need with 4qb 132 v2 already in a 4x4?

Or just flush and restart?

But if i flush and restart I’m feeding at the same spot I left off which will just create the situation over again without finding the solution.

Yes just not last night the night before my runoff was lower than my ppm going in

My ppm In was 1140 in

My run off for all 3 plants was 960-980

Ph in was 5.7 run off PH was 6.4 for all 3

Those aren't bad numbers.

Maybe talk to S2C about the diet. I'm not familiar with the nutes, just the symptoms. It could possibly be low K, but I'm just not seeing it there. K, Mg, and Ca run together... so you've got something ducky going on there. They're in coco right?

Give it a foliar feed with epsom in ph'd water. If it helps, you can narrow down what's lacking and go from there.

Pretty sure he just flushed.

No it’s 100% perlite hempys. I’m debating on switching to my remo nutrients.

I thought these were the ones you just flushed?

I flushed earlier this week. Like Monday or tuesday.

Lol. Too many different plants in different systems to keep track of. Gonna have to start a log.

I’d still flush solid media/swap dwc...

So you have your base and calmag?

I miss my HPS so much. Gonna have to work hard and dial these weird white lights in. I have a handful of quantum boards too. Need to order some more. Any suggestions? I have 4qb132 now @70? Watts each.

Get yourself one of these for those 4 boards, make one light fixture out of them by hooking them up in parallel and run the whole fixture at 300W.

I don't know off top of my head, ask tbone shuffle on gc or do comparison on hlg site.

I’ve got one for each system. lol I can answer any questions you’d have for each system. Should I flush again and just restart with my remo nutrients? They’ll be more balanced and they’re PH perfect.
