    Nute lockout in DWC?

    Cheers Xs. Interesting you run high ppm, lots of people saying much lower, around 600 or so. Im at 500 and i expect it to go up cos she looks really hungry for something. No ive not tried that. How would that help? I keep it around 6 but wonder if it would help nute absorbtion if i went higher...

    Advice for DWC Newbie

    Good luck man! Check out my thread for how NOT to dwc. I guess the main thing ive learned is keep ppm down, from what ive gathered ppm for veg wants to be 600 - 800 or thereabouts. Also lots saying dont stick too much to feeding schedules, learn to read the plant, monitor doses closely and see...

    Nute lockout in DWC?

    Ppm stayed the same again (320) overnight and i think some of the yellow leaves seem to be turning green. Am I good to increase ppm to say 500? (my water is 120) What about the additives (Rhizo, Cannazyme, Boost), when should i think about using these? Any thoughts appreciated!

    Nute lockout in DWC?

    Ppm stayed more or less the same over night which is good news i guess. I'll give her a new rez today at 25% nutes and increase it 25% a day intil im up to 100%. I really hope she pulls through, im dying to try this strain!

    Nute lockout in DWC?

    Yeah I guess i did. She's been on much lower ppm for the last few days but it looks like the damage has been done ;( How did your RC look, i dunno if it was because of the problems but my one was very stocky and bushy, not at all sativa like...

    Nute lockout in DWC?

    Cheers $moke. I can get the temps down no probs, ill look into raising RH. What do you make of the rising ppm? Did a bit of reading, it seems rising ppm means the plant is absorbing water but not the nutes, which points to a ph problem but i check it daily and its always around 6... Just filled...

    Nute lockout in DWC?

    Nute lockout in DWC?

    Hiya Im having a horrible time with a Nirvana Raspberry Cough in my first dwc. It started in week 3, showing a deficiency (sulphur i think) so I upped the nutes and added epsom salts. This made my pph skyrocket so i flushed in ph'd water and slowly tried to reintroduce feeding, only for the...

    Iron deficiency...?

    Im afraid i need more help guys. Finally seem to have my rez stabilised at 1000ppm and ph6 and had a few days of normality but i notice today this very distinctive brown spotting. Seems to have appeared fairly quickly too. There are 4 tiny bugs on my yellow sticker (which i hate having to use...

    Iron deficiency...?

    Yep. Having discovered my ph was 4.2, checked ppm and was alarmed to see it at 1700. Im screwing up so badly its a miracle she is still alive. She's been topped, new growth looks burned but lower side branches dont look too bad. Would the epsom salts have sent the ppm skyrocketing? She's got...

    Iron deficiency...?

    Thanks for the encouragement SS. Discovered to my horror today my ph was 4.2!! Hopefully fixing that plus the salts to address whatever deficiency it was will get my girl back on track. If anyone is interested, keep an eye out in the journal section, i might start a diary if and when she takes...
