    First time topping, did I mess it up?

    that is so great to hear! What do you mean “personally pinch the very center growth tip off earlier in life”? Like I should have snipped it before the leaves started to “unfold”? Oh, and I did top at the 4th node.

    First time topping, did I mess it up?

    Topped one plant to see how it would respond (never grown this stain before). When I was topping I think I may have snipped off a tiny bit of the internode growth. Did I fuck up the topping? Pics below

    Hydroponics and tap water?

    Good to know, thanks! BTW, sorry for the late response. I know that was kind of rude of me to not respond after you put so much time/effort into your response. Quick question about the reservoir cleaning with hot water and bleach (I will be changing nutes and cleaning in a few days). How do...

    ahh okay I gotcha.

    More seeds germinated than I needed

    by “keeper” do you mean as a mother plant? If so, I would have to buy another light.

    More seeds germinated than I needed

    nah, I mean I’d rather get something from them than nothing. How soon would I have to get them out for it to work? If I got them out too late wouldn’t I have to worry about a re-veg once the days start getting long again? (8-9 week flower strain btw)

    More seeds germinated than I needed

    yeah I thought about that, but i don’t have another light. :( I guess I could buy another small veg light?

    More seeds germinated than I needed

    Yeah, I already did that. The best 4 are already in the system. The other two started to outgrow the rockwool they were in and the roots started to get a little burnt up by the light so I transfers them to coco coir in solo cups. Probably should have mentioned that above, my bad.

    More seeds germinated than I needed

    So, I’m doing a 4 site RDWC grow. I didn’t want to take the chance of having not enough seeds germinate so I did 6 seeds (feminized). Guess they were good seeds cuz they all popped lol now I have two extra seedlings. Growing in a 4x4 I figure 6 plants would be a little cramped, but it would be...

    Possible deficiency?

    Okay good. I’m using two mars hydro sp-250 and when you say hungry, which element are you referring to? Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, etc.?

    Possible deficiency?

    Just started my first hydro grow (RDWC) Spotted a few strange shiny golden brown spots on one of my fan leaves and I’m not sure what they are. I’ve heard deficiencies progress fast in hydro, so I would like to catch them early. I also noticed that some of the new growing fan leaves are a little...

    Can I add new nutrients to my res? (RDWC)

    word thanks man. What about nutes that are already in the solution? Like, say I had a N deficiency or something, could I add more nutrients high in N? (I would dilute whatever nutrient I add in some water first before adding.)

    Can I add new nutrients to my res? (RDWC)

    what do you think caused this in your system? Like what about adding the new nutrient do you think did it?

    Can I add new nutrients to my res? (RDWC)

    I could do that. I just filled it tho so I’d rather not drain it and mix 30+ gallons of nutes before I have to tho.

    Can I add new nutrients to my res? (RDWC)

    damn that’s crazy. I’m running a 4 site RDWC waterfall.

    Can I add new nutrients to my res? (RDWC)

    So, let me be more specific here... Can I add nutrients to my solution in the reservoir if the nutrient solution that is currently in the reservoir does not already contain that specific nutrient? For example: I started out with the “week 1” nutrient mix; it did not call for silica for the...

    Hydroponics and tap water?

    also I should have mentioned. I will be using hydro guard along with other bennies. Will the fluoride and chloramine kill bennies?

    Hydroponics and tap water?

    Are you absolutely positive? Like have you done this yourself with hard city tap water containing fluoride and chloramine with no negative effects??
  19. ddeck96

    Hydroponics and tap water?

    so just let my tap water sit in a tote and that will take care of the chloramine and fluoride? Also is the air pump and sub pump absolutely necessary?

    Hydroponics and tap water?

    Does your water have fluoride in it? Could you, if it’s not too much trouble, explain to me your process of “purifying” your water.
