You dont want to use Voodoo Juice and H202 at the same time. The H202 will kill all the microbes in the Voodoo Juice.
Voodoo Juice is the most over priced bacteria innoculant on the market just a FYI! Man that stuff is a ripp off!!
Another issue is that AN uses UREA for a nitrogen source. That is mammal piss in case your wondering, UREA is ok for soil or when there are microbes that can break it down and make it available for the plants. If there is not a strong biological herd to break it down guess what happens to the plants?
AN sucks because they claim to use all the best source materials which is just another lie told by them, mammal piss is NOT the best source for nitrogen it is actually the cheapest and worst source for nitrogen you can use. UREA is also NOT for use in hydroponics like DWC yet they use it and claim on the bottle it is for hydroponics???
H202 will steralize and KILL everything. The reason you brew tea is to give time for a diverse a microbe team to grow and build up.
Your fighting your own self by trying to add tea's and using voodoo juice then using H202 to kill anything you added....
I would first switch to a proper nutrient for DWC, a mineral based nutrient is what you need to use or start learning how to build a biofilter and breeding bacteria then you can use organic products or whatever you want.....
Dont waste your money on anymore voodoo juice whatever you do. Get Orca or Great White, or Hydroguard or OrganismXL or any of the other more reasonable and fair priced products that work even BETTER than Voodoo Juice anyhow!
Your plants have the "Claw" look which indicates over feeding and not enough O2 to the roots. The ratio's are way fucked up in AN products...I know they claim to do MJ testing but I assure you the ratio's are NOT correct and there are much better suited products on the market for lots less money.......
Cheers!
This grow is going to the end, regardless of what happens along the way. Im simply going to use what I have for now. Next grow, I will be doing something totally different.
The DWC plants are all doing well. The roots are still gnatt infested, but not nearly as much. Its slowly going down. I will be taking clones from the center plant in Cooler #2 at some point. I will also be turning 1 of the Platinum Kush plants in dirt into a mother as well as the clone I take from the Cooler #2 plant.
Figured id edit this with a little more.
From what Ive read and seen others use the AN line has been perfectly fine in DWC. That doesnt mean Im not open to change though. Right now, nothing else sounds appealing. Suggestions?
I was curious about tea/voodoo/sensizym/h202 and how they all might interact with each other. So far all I can say is the tea and sensizym made a MESS of the coolers. I couldnt see much of a improvement from the tea, and needed to get the gnatt situation taken care of so I dumped it and went to h202 and full scrub down to fight the battle. The voodoo juice has, well, Im not really sure as I dont have any prior grows to compare it to. The H202...well, its not making a mess of the cooler so happy. Plus it seems to be keeping things in line a little better. Not seeing as many gnatts, but the roots are still brownish. This is all in cooler #2 of course. Cooler #1 had tea and it did the same. The roots in Cooler #1 are looking better and better.
I might try the tea again later in the grow. Does this stuff usually make a huge mess inside the cooler??? I cant recall if I took pictures or not.
Also, can you explain the "claw" look? Are you referring to how some of the leafs are spinning out?
As for gnatts coming from the dirt plants, thats exactly what happened. I saw them, let them dry out, but it was to late. I managed to get rid of them in the dirt plants but they simply moved to the DWC.
