    Nitrogen Toxicity?

    Again, RO TDS/PPM readings will differ, they are not always zero. Can't find the link, but I read the study, didn't dream it or anything. From what I remember it has to do with how the meter reads it, based upon electrical conductivity, so something happens with different types of water where...

    Nitrogen Toxicity?

    Thank you again for the prompt reply, but they are NEW filters, new always gives me about that number. I just checked the roots and adjusted per your information. Now the ph is 5.5 and now the ppm is 490, subtracting base RO it is 390 ppm. I generally lift the lid and place in an empty bucket to...

    Nitrogen Toxicity?

    Thanks for the information - however RO is not always 0. I read a study on why RO ppm would not be 0. Don't remember the specifics, but the take-away is that it could read different than zero. I can't find the link, but it's a real study. So rather than debate upon that part, I will take the...

    Nitrogen Toxicity?

    After some troubles this plant has bounced back, but now it started having nitrogen toxicity problems, I believe. I think this is the case since the leaves are all dark green and clawing/bending downwards. The problem started after I went from a ppm of about 500 to 650 (base RO ppm is 200)...

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    Lowered water level about 3 inches below net, added hydroguard. One day later and leaves are bigger and perked up/not drooping! Also have an air line just blowing inside bucket, not in water. Would that be doing anything beneficial?

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    I remember adding calmag to seedlings in soil last year, as I was using RO water then as well.

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    Just did what you stated and sprayed / misted the seedling with a fine mist sprayer. Used same water from bucket.

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    Air filter? Do you mean an air stone? I have an air stone, yes. So the drip ring is off, been off since last post. Fans in tent are off. Seedling still in bubble bucket. Moved top hydroton stones and the rapid rooter is moist on top, all the way through it. Leaves still curled down.

    Seedling leaves curling

    Seems to wet. I just changed to rapid rooters myself, so just figuring those out, but so far it's better than the rock wool.

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    Thanks again Know One. I have another seedling in rapid rooter this time. However, it is looking like the first picture, with the droopy leaves, so no need to post another photo! I must be doing close to the same thing incorrectly again. However, this time I'm using less nutes. A few days ago...

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    Your cubes look different, mine have labels around them. Perhaps that helped hold too much moisture. I believe I also put the cube in netpot too early as it sucked up moisture from bubbling, and never dried out from that. I see yours are also not in a system yet, even though they have a few...

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    Roots are barely through the bottom. I fed less than 1/4, as feeding was what "Know One" stated, I think that pretty much did it in. The top was quite wet as well. I believe it drowned. So, I just got my rapid rooters yesterday. Just ph'd water to 5.8 and put another seed directly in the rapid...

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    Yes, post stated ro water. It was my understanding you don't feed until more leaves, as cotolyns are still there.

    Rockwool seedling help please, droopy

    Had 1st year growing last year. Did 3 perpetual soil grows. This year trying bubbleponics. Have rockwool and having issues! Small cubes soaked in PH 5.9 RO water. Germinated seeds in papertowel, then placed in the rockwool which was shaken out for excess water. Placed in dome. One popped up but...

    Does all weed taste bad?

    Usually coconut oil. Don't use water as I didn't want to risk any mold.

    Does all weed taste bad?

    Well, white widow, is one I don't like. . . My new grow is just starting, hoping it'll be much better than my first couple batches with white widow. It'll take some time to get through about 2 lbs of the other stuff though.

    Does all weed taste bad?

    First timer with cannabis. Only grown WW so far. Cooking with it, the weed puts off strong odor and taste. Does all weed/strains smell and taste bad/unappealing? My first grows were in FF soil, indoors. Next is hydroponics but strain supposed to be fruity.

    Glycerin tincture irritation

    Glycerin tastes sweet. But, it alone seems to be the source of the irritation to my mouth/tongue. Wonder if I can make a honey tincture instead. Don't see why not, probably have to add coconut oil though. However, next I'll try the glycol alone, first will have to wait until the reaction goes...

    Glycerin tincture irritation

    Made my first glycerin tincture and it irritated my tounge and throat. First time I held a few drops under my tounge. The next time tried swalling some mixed in yogurt. Both had same result. The recipe was about 3/4 cup glycerin, 1/8 cup glycol, 20 drops mint oil, heated for a day in crockpot...
