been slacking for the past few months just got back on track and my flowering plants are just shit, they do well for the first few weeks around week 5 they turn to this. i run the tanks around 1500 and add 250 ml 35% peroxide every few days. ph is pretty stable hardly have to adjust back to 5.8. heres some pics, would be nice to figure this out big waste of money here.

nice setup how often do u change ur rez? and how many gals is it?...i dont know "your plants" but my clones hit the table running at very close if not 1950 to 2000 PPMs at 5.8 to 6.0 PH and i change a 30 gal rez once a week...so it could be a lack of nutes?...here check this out, looks like Potassium deficiency in flowering :http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=11688 ..hope i helped:bigjoint:also what strain is that?

Sup. Quick question for the sog nerds. I got a funky white foamy slimy gunk growin in my res. Just did a res change today. I use 35% H2O2 @1.7 ml/L or 6.8 ml/gal. I add new H2O2 every three days. Still this stuff grows. Was really gunked up on my bubble wand. I sanitize everything at every res change with mild soap/bleach water. Can't figure out what the deal is. This shit is badass if it can chill with the H2O2. I was adding Hygrozyme too in the last res change but have since stopped as it seemed to exacerbate the problem. Also am about to switch to Lucas Formula for the final month of bloom. Any way, some suggestions as to the goo problem will be much appreciated. Stay green.

ewww @ hygrozyme


h2o2 will not kill anything. all it does is oxidize. it will keep it at bay.

you can get some stuff called physan 20...if your problem is as bad as you say and h2o2 isnt working for you. its like a nuke option.

its like 7 bucks a bottle. be careful with the stuff! less is more!!!!


House & Garden Roots Excellator is also a bomb ass root stimulator and will rid root rot and others

Hygrozyme is an enzyme... it helps super feed your beneficial bacteria... (or the bad if that's what you got)...

So you are supercharging the organisms before you try to kill them with the h2o2...

You are working against yourself.....

....

...

and LB.. EWWW is not a very good explanation of anything...;-)

and h2o2 KILLS by oxidizing... but it kills... not only bacteria, but just about anything that is alive.. including you and me and our plants...

100% h2o2 will dissolve your hand if you stick it in there..;-)

It DOES KILL ..like .. FOREVER...:lol:

sometimes our dear friend lb is blinded by his biased hatred of hygrozyme and h202 that he omits certain facts......we should all gang up on him and call him susan from now on. i'll run it by a mod just to be sure it's ok.

Yeah. I junked the Hygrozyme. I upped the H2O2 a touch to see if that helps at all. Was actually contemplating one of those fancy UV pond scum killers. Got to get some $ out before any more goes in. LB was pretty close though. I said ewww when I was cleaning it up. Nasty stuff. But all the plants seemed to tolerate it. All the roots I see growing out of the bottoms of the pots are bright white. going to see how it goes for this batch of nutes. No BS just GH Flora series at 1400 ppm using Lucas Formula. We shall see. Thanks for the input everybody. I guess I was expecting more from the H2O2.

I have used HYGROZYME with organic nutes... and IT WORKS REALLY WELL..

Try a touch in your clone water...:razz: You will shit bricks when you see NOODLES flopping out at an accelerated rate...:clap:

But not worth a damn in an IN-organic feed schedule..

..

I have come to love SIMPLE...

1 nute and h2o2..

sure there are additives to make it better..

but at what cost???

I REFUSE to increase my nute cost by 100% to get a 10% return...

I rather do a WHOLE OTHER BATCH with the extra money..

Like race cars... that extra MPH is very expensive...

I rather run the economy car and have a much HIGHER RETURN ON MY INVESTMENT..

..

I have left grams per WATT behind..

I am now working on my grans per DOLLAR.. to include EVERYTHING..

My next step will be removing the RW from the cloning...

I will live with the hydroton cause I have reused 98% of it over the last year... very little was lost...

Hell yeah!!! As far as i'm concerned, rockwool is an unneeded expense, not to mention a big hassle!

i'll bet you could build one of these suckers for about $70.

Thanks Bro...

I ahve been thinking about coughing the $$$ for the real ez cloner...

But they are soooo freaking spendy...

I have just seen so many of these home made jobs leak... or not last...

I hate paying out .. but I do prefer high quality over El Cheapo in the long run...;-)
