I ended up getting Hydroguard from botanicles, the roots started to turn a bit brown so I will post an updates on how she is doing but in the mean time my season two of northern lights auto flower in dirt is a few weeks left before it’s harvest time and she is starting to sparkle
I hear ya, just trying to get the handle of the hydro grow before I jump fully into it. I will the have a drain and fill reservoir setup.
The info is very nice although she is still just drinking water and less nutrients so I think we are on the right track. However I’m still seeing some...
Lol it’s in Fahrenheit 68-70 the “deg f” Got cut off didn’t catch it in edit sorry
When I add it I make sure the temp is adjusted before I pop the top back on. I don’t drain and fill from the port yet.
Ok, here is the update
ppm I have been trying to keep it between 600 and 650
the ec is avg 1.3
Oh around 5.85
Starting week 4
leaves still showing some burn
Hypotheses is I need to go even lower with ppm
I’m at a 612ppm now and I am going to try to keep it around 580-620 range
another...
Ok dumped everything out added cal mag and done 1/3 ratio of normal for the girl today our levels were 711 ppm pretty high but just a little over your parameter so I’ll just fit in the difference when adding more water in a couple days. Ec is 1.6 and ph is 5.85. Now we wait and see how she does
Thanks for all of the replies I will begin with the feeding by 1/3 of what I have been doing.
No I have not been adding cal mag into it. I was thinking the fox farm nutrients would provide all it needed. I’m using the dirty dozen plus mackerel and kelp. I was mixing for a 4 gallon solution.
