Agreed. Not enough moisture

I'm sorry but I heavily disagree. .6 is too high. Under 6.0 is where the pH should be. And you definitely don't need all that to germ for hydro. A simple soak of the rockwool for 10 second in 5.5 adjusted water, add seeds and put themunder the closed dome for 5-7 days under close 24hrs cfls or...

Flush with distilled/boiled water. I test all my water before. My tap fluctuates from 7.0-8. It's easier to start with a base water and build up then correct.

Actually it's .35EC here is an online converter http://www.4hydroponics.com/convertPPM.asp

Ec and ppm are same. Just different measurements. So 1000 ppm is 1.0EC so if it's around 250ppm I guess that would be .25EC

Have you checked the bottom of the leaves for spots?

It could possibly be heat depending on hot the sun is. But I'm not an expert on outdoor. I would definitely invest in insecticides though.

Do you have a ppm meter? Just because you didn't add nutrients doesn't mean there isn't a high amount in your water. My tap is about 300 which is a little high for seedlings

Looks like nutes. I'm very curious to see how these do with you taking them in and outside. Seems it will get heavy soon. Also you definitely want to transplant you don't want the 3 of them competing for root space and chocking each other out

Definitely looks like high nutrients. With Rockwool you should just dunk the cubes in 5.5 pH for 10 seconds. Then put the seed in 1/4" and put it in a zip lock or prop tray with a dome. They will be good for the first week. Edit: obviously in a bag you would have to open it once it rooted

Well I did half of GH's recommended beginning veg mix.(Flora series) and the ppm was 640 I thought I started seeing discoloration a couple days ago and added some water to lower the ppm and every day it went back up. That's why I decided on the res change. Plus it's been a week and I want to...

I'd say if you plant early enough in the day and have a good viable seed. You could easily have something the next morning

Yes. It depends how long it's been planted. But I've had seed sprout 2" above ground in 3 days from planting

I don't know if you all can tell from these pictures, but let me know. I've already done a res change and lowered the ppm.

I'm OCD as well. I'm a daily cleaner. I did the strawberry soda in my bongs back in the day when I smoked reggie. But now nothing but cold filtered water.

The only reason the ac wouldn't work is because you have to vent the exhaust out of the garage. Other then that I don't see why it wouldn't work. But I would think more like 7500 if you're cooling the whole garage.

Read and have faith. You'll go crazy anticipating the next problem. Just sit back and study, so when something does happen you'll be prepared. As far as germing goes it's pretty much all faith. Set them and leave them be. 3 out of 4 is good. I've had far worse germ results. Focus on those 3 they...

here she is today. Right before res change. I run lights at night so I just changed her right before lights out for less shock

Nice. Yeah she's only drinking water, so I'm going to do a res change today and lower the ppm

Fuck I was afraid it was too high. I divided GH's Flora series specs in half and it still gave me a early veg ppm of 640. It's drinking mostly water, so I gave it a couple 1 cup top flushes. I figured I would keep it the same instead of increasing it, and see what she tells me.
