    Yeah, i as actually thinking it was possible that the EWC went bad due to it being in a zip lock bag for over a year - I pulled some new EWC from the original ancient forest bag and its much more 'wet'. I've also purchased great white and hydroguard, in hopes that maybe one of those three...

    Wicked, thank you for the feedback. If you read a few of my follow up posts, you'll see that i have tried the heisenberg tea without luck. In fact, physan will keep my PH at a steady 5.5ph, but very little root growth. As SOON as i do a rez change with nothing but nutes and bennie tea (brewed...

    Sigh. I just dont get it. The plant is staying alive because of its tiny rooball in the hydrogen. peeking through i can see some not so great looking, dead roots. Every time that a nice looking white root penetrates the netcup, it starts to die. its as if the water is acid. The tea causes my PH...

    could you give me the ratio's for each of those ingredients? I've just purchased great white and hydroguard on amazon in hopes to fix this problem. Also, what does the tea look like when you're finished brewing it? Is it thicker than water? Is it brown like an actual tea? Is there anything...

    Thanks for the reply. I just dont understand why my tea is causing me more problems. I'm following heisenberg's instructions. I'm brewing it for 48 hours. Its plenty aerated, and i've even bought new tubing, airstone, and bucket just to brew the tea in. Still, when adding the tea, 24-48 hours...

    Okay, I'm fairly certain that my tea is the problem, i just dont understand why. Maybe someone else can solve this, because I cannot figure it out. I ran my res sterile for a week and the plant perked up, albeit very slowly. My res is 3 Gallons of RO 0ppm water, topped up to 600pps with A/B...

    Plants Drooping!!

    definitely some sort of bacteria/rot. Based on how dirty it looks, I'd say you need to sterilize everything first, and then brew up bennies. I'm not the most reliable source here though, seeing as i'm having the same issue right now.

    Thanks for the tips! I have a feeling i was using too much molasses when brewing the tea. My rates are 5ml ZHO, 5ml mycogrow soluble, 15ml ancient forest, 6ml molasses, in 1/2 gallon of water. Two air stones through a "Tetra Whisper 300" air pump. Just to note: i didnt necessarily "heat" my...

    Thanks for the RH tip, i'll check into that. I cant imagine that has much to do with the root issues though, eh? I did try h2o2 in the days when i was trying a sterile days. I woke up today to an even worse looking, more droopy plant. I'm going to assume that the brew i'm making is actually...

    Indoor grow. Came as a clone in some sort of rockwool alternative. He said it was recycled tree bark or something, but it doesnt break up in the system and is safe for DWC. I just dont understand it! I've done three grows now, and have somehow made it to the end every time. Each grow has had...

    Help! trying to keep plants small - but leggy seedlings

    I actually don't have a light on the propagator. It told me to leave it dark or low to mid light. I was leaving the cubes in until the other 2 germinated, but still no luck. I'm doing 24/0 or 20/4 because its an auto. I've moved them into the veg/flower box now but haven't put the hydro-rocks...

    Help! trying to keep plants small - but leggy seedlings

    Hey everyone, I'm looking for a bit of advice. I've planted 5 easy ryder seeds into Grodan A-OK starter cubes inside a propagator tray with dome, a heat mat, and thermostat set to 80º for germination. 3 of the 5 seeds have germinated in 4-5 days now, each within 1 day of each other. I want to...
