My plant now is in the second week of flower, and I just swapped the water out again, adjusted pH, then added BOOST, BLOOM, Awesome Blossom, MagiCal, followed by ECOFIX. Water temp 69-70F, 72% humidity, pH=5.64, TDS=1407, EC=2810, ORP=341. No H2O2, UV Off, 12/12 light. When the plant wakes I'll...

Should I adjust the light cycle back to 18/6 (12/12 now) to give the plant a better recovery from the root trim and the dying yellow leave trim ?

I added a total of 4ml to my 4.5 gallon system,, figuring since it's bacteria it will grow exponentially to some sort of equilibrium regardless. I also turned off my in-line UV system.... and will keep the water at 20 C. Is it essential to cut the roots, or will the ECOFIX bacteria clean up the...

Did you still keep water temperature in the upper sixties, or increase it ?

I got the ECOFIX. How much should I add? 1ml per 4 gallons, or would it hurt to add a bit more than that?

I stay away from most things that make my water darker and/or cloudy.. (sugar daddy thrive alive, etc.)

No air pump problems, however if one did have power problems, a few hours would not deplete oxygen levels to the point of making the water toxic. I ordered the ECOFIX and will have it Monday. I would guess that H2O2 should not be added if I am adding beneficial bacteria ?? If I cut all of the...

I add 10 to 20 ml of 12% H2O2 to my 4 gallon reservoir daily. Seems to be used up within 24 hours.

I have run into a white mold slime... way back in the grow a snotty looking blob in the water ... changing the water weekly has kept such at a minimum... roots don't have slime or smell, and many are totally white.. course many more are off-white/tan. What exactly is Ecofix ?

As far as the NPK numbers go they are a ratio. I could be wrong here, but I beleive that a tablespoon of 16:16:16 added to a gallon of water will behave like four tablespoons of 4:4:4 added to a gallon of water.

Just happened to read this from the beginning... concerning the H2O2 or bleach... one part,,, has no meaning. One part bleach to 9 parts water,, means you make a 10% solution of your bleach in water. To a chemist "bleach" has no definitive meaning either. Chemically it too (my Clorox jug) is a...

The added; Technaflora BOOST has 0.04% Iron, Technaflora MagiCal has 0.11% Iron, and Orchid Better-Bloom has 0.15% Iron. I thought that the Better-Bloom may have caused the problem, so I swapped the water three days ago, replacing the Better-Bloom with Technaflora BLOOM which has no iron, but...

Yes, it's hydro... basket in the top of a 5 gallon pail, water is crystal clear, and roots aren't overly brown. What ppm H2O2 do you recommend in the reservoir ?

Just put plant into flower after it finally grew some decent roots (eleven weeks). Didn't have BLOOM nutrients, so used a low dose (1/4 Tbsp/gallon instead of one Tbsp) of a 11-35-15 powder. added the called for amount of BOOST, MgCal, and Awesome blossom. during the water swap. pH ended up a...

Nice bud and monster plant pictures, but my line of questions concern what was a 10 day old plant. I had been keeping my dense root ball (growing out from my seed starter mini-net pot) slightly above the water level in the bucket. This was because at that time the thought was too much water was...

So your FULL mark is the lower net pot level, or upper net pot level ?

So when you fill the bucket above, do you put the water level totally covering all the grow pot windows,, or even higher.

If I was to consider the small seedling pot my "net pot", then keeping it ~ 1/2" above the water level is what I have been doing. At the beginning of this post the consensus was that I was essentially drowning the plant because I had the water level higher. The root ball has continued to grow...

I moved the bubble disk to the side. Oxygen in the water is great, mainly due to 69 degrees, so moving the bubbler won't hurt anything, and I'll see if the roots like the water more. The root ball actually has the seedling pod engulfed which makes it appear much darker than the way the actually...
