Thank you for everyone's comments, together my plants have taken off!! Amazing growth and totally amazing roots!! Thank You again!

Thanks for the wake up. I studied horticulture at U of Az but have not practiced it in 45 years. Yea old guy here. I need to think and not follow every suggestion as it's rather head spinning. Similar to growing potato's in the desert, give them what they need and leave them alone. I never saw...

So I have a 25 gal tank. I have changed out 15 gallons using hydroguard and PH to 5.5. TDS is at 525 cannot seam to get it any lower Added two more fresh gallons to raise level to 1" below cups. TDS 515 Should I do a water changeout? I can only mix 10 gallons at a time, leave out all neuts, add...

Will do on the top feed, great thought! I was at 3" below net cups, will raise level to 1" TDS now at 630 (after another 5 gallons plain water) I guess I need the amino acids, does the calimagic work like an amino acid?

I took ten gallons out, added 10 with hydroguard and PH'ed. TDS now at 500. This morning the plants look horrible, very droopy. Will try to replace more and get it to 400 and see what's happening. Can't get out to buy any new neuts or amino acids at this time. Thanks again for both of your guys...

Thank you so much for your feedback - tremendous help!

TDS does not change much, at most 20 points. Must have had issues not aware of as these plants all started at the same time and believe it or not 6 weeks ago. Only one really growing. One grew two colas on it's own so I stressed it but man is it small. Should I loose the smaller ones and...

I watch PH and TDS daily and record same. Using general hydroponics (micro, gro, bloom), Calimagic and hydroguard. What would you recommend for the correct TDS level? (25 gallons of water)

This is what the schedule on dwc was calling for 800 - 1200 PPM. Too high? When I lower it they really start drooping. Had it down to 560 but they appeared worse off. Do nutrients effect root rot? have had issues with keeping the PH down.

Thanks for thoughts. Water temp is 67 to 70 F and steady. Unknown seed source (bag seed) Nutrients are at 780 ppm PH 5.5 - 6. No smell present. Room temp 70-80 f Humidity is at 46% Added more Hydro Reflective tapped the sides and rail of tote lid in case it was channeling light - now completely...

My first try at DWC bubble, 2nd water change out and I have root rot. Using Hydroguard from beginning. Cleaned everything with HP, was mostly sterile environment. Two pumps and three air stones. Lined tub with black neoprene, using neoprene net cup covers, no light issues I can see. Any ideas...

Thanks, 0.5 is very low but agreed, see how it goes. so the actual loss of nutrient water will be very low? Just keep an eye on PH and EC? Temp of water at 65 F? Good info thanks again.

Does anyone know when using fogponics what the nutrient levels should be as compared to suggested for hydroponics? Also how much fog will condensate for recycling? If using 8 gallons a day how much of that will condensate back into liquid?
