So can u explain a bit on HTH so i have 45 gal res , can i mix 0.40 gram of hth lets say in 1 gall of rez water then add it back to rez ? or i need to do rez change with 0.40 hth in it ?

Same chlorine that we need to remove from TAP right ? :) I just talked to friend of mine his growing in COCO and uses regular Tap without any de-chlorinator and pulling 2.8 lb per light

Ill look in to it cuz Athena u just used max power 10 ml per gall and that 450 ml out of 1 gall on athena. it can get expensive :) So pool shok same as uc root ? i was advised against pool shock in hydro by GH support guy

I ordered UC roots from ebay but its being delayed thats why o bought CLeanse from local shop( same content as UC roots based on label) yup thats the plan to repeat it on 2-3 days but u think i can put in from top besides adding it to rez ?

Yup all roots absolutely same , i do agree with u on stain part cuz they looked same on the second day when i added nova bloom. so i just got athena cleanse gonna a give it a try , also i found out it might be some weir root disease caused by bacteria bloom because i added fl plus on the 6 th...

Here are some pic of roots

@rkymtnman i was thinking to raise water level to all the way to hydroton and add hypoclorus (UC roots) see if that will kill anything

I did not know that buy i cant really stop it cuz its coming from air :) i dont add co2 Also i noticed that roots smell like fish tank no slime but when i touched them a bunch came off, is it root rot ? ill post pictures when light is on

So water level dropping slowly (but that can be evaporation also right ? ) , PPM same (380) PH rising slowly lights are on from 11am-11pm . co2 is 450-500

so its been 2 hr since i changed the rez and it is still same thing. only ph is going up PPM same

Thank @rkymtnman :) so imassuming just 2 ml nutes right ? no silica no calmag ? (that 150ppm in my water is mainly call mag so i dont really need to add ) no additional PK until they start eating ?

so i drained as much as i could from rez , vacuuming buckets is not real cuz i have too much roots so when i removed 30 gal water system left with around 10 gall of nute water. im letting it run for 24 hr

thank you for ur input

no looks like they drink less

since the plants are short it acts as holding net, besides what it has to do with plants not eating ?

im still flushing , since i couldn't remove all water from system after adding fresh ph balanced water that's what ppm become (im using 3 stage filtered water not RO ) but thats a good sign right ? if ph goes up and water goes down

so i did res change just to be on the safe side and now they drink water EC stays same and PH rises it went from 5.9 to 6.2 in like 4 hr PPM is 310 (my water has 150 already) and i cant remove all water.

Yeah i have a reef tank ph meter i can try that one

yeah i calibrated them like 5 times already still they show difference im assuming one of them is defective but not sure which one

@rkymtnman one more thing So i have 2 Bluelab meter 1 handheld , 1 stationary here is strange part hand shows PPM 590 PH 6.2 where stat PPM 560 PH 5.8 can all this be cuz of wrong ph readings ?
