    HAVE I GOT ROOT ROT

    Seems like a big bucket for 1 stone. The water sitting in the bucket would not aerate well at all and would be stagnate. I flood drain but have my buckets filled with clay balls and they are in a flood tray. If any roots sit in water they turn brown on me. I top feed for 5 seconds every...

    HAVE I GOT ROOT ROT

    So submerged for 1 hour without any aeration? Also does it drain 100%?

    First grow. Gorilla cake autos. Progress thread

    I don't want leaves smashed against buds. So those get chopped. I need air flow through the plant so I open it up a little. If the leaf is on top of a bud it gets chopped. But only for the very top.

    Bleach is your friend. Next grow go sterile. Rot is never a problem.

    First grow. Gorilla cake autos. Progress thread

    Yeah I just push them under. I have also twisted them when I needed them to not grow and I had no where to go. I crush stems. A lot. To control height. I have to trim a fair bit because I jam a lot in there. Kinda need to form your own opinion on that. It is good and bad. If you trim...

    First grow. Gorilla cake autos. Progress thread

    Well....they need a lot of help. I put the pot to one side of the room and push the top under the net as it grows. When the sides reach the net I start doing the same with them. Need to do it when the tops are fresh. If you let them get old they harden and will snap when you try to work with...

    To pull or hold?

    I agree. That is why I said something is weird. Probably had some issues. Need to see entire plant.

    The sooner the better. If you need room to water your plants you start a little later. I auto water so as soon as the plants clear my auto system I start pushing them under a net.

    Help me from making the same mistake

    I use HTC pool shock at 0.01 g per gallon. So my 10 gallon res is 0.1grams. So you need a 0.01 accuracy scale. Cheap on Amazon. I just put a little tiny amount in every day. I measured it enough to know about how much to need. You would need to put a lot in to hurt the plant. A little a...

    Help me from making the same mistake

    I had a lot of problems with seedlings and roots doing weird things. My solution is to place them in the towel and then place the towel so the bottom of the seed is facing down. This way the root will grow straight down. So I have a nice straight root that is going down already when I...

    I grow in a closet and hydro seemed easier than soil to me. Is it tho...hard to say. Took a couple grows but I got it down now. I'd probably say coco is the easier option. I do a flood drain in clay balls. Id go with the bleach route if you want to be 100% sure you will never have a...

    Help me from making the same mistake

    Ok. Gotcha. Well what I'm saying is you use bleach the entire grow. But it is weird you had issues while using a chiller. Running sterile the entire grow. Dosing with bleach every day. Is 100% gaurantee never to have rot.

    Help me from making the same mistake

    Use a sterilizing agent instead of hydrogaurd. Kill all the bacteria. I use bleach. Lots of people use bleach. Never worry about water temps. No need for a chiller but it ain't a bad thing.
