Hey how is everone? Im starting my log a coulpe weeks late but i'll start from the beginning. I lived in minnesota and a moved in with some roomates (BADS IDER). I built a aeroponics system and had eight plants about a week old. One day my roomate had something up her ass, she decided to tell my landlord without talking to me at all, he comes over and sees it and the next day I go to look at it everything ruined. All my nutes dumped out my timers and light sitting in the soup, I was crushed. Well now its a new start I moved to seattle washington and got my own place just me and my girl. I went to my hydroponics store and got tons of sutff.... Here is my setup

Waterfarm Top Feed
Flora Series
600w HPS
ppm- 960
24/7 watering
airstone in the water
18/6 lighting
3 weeks old so far

I will keep posting everyday and showing tons of pics
Here is what I have got so far Comments and concerns are always appreciated.........

oh p.s I had nute burn before i got my ppm meter so thats why you see it in the pictures

Hey thanks guys for reading. Is it normal when i look at my plant in the morning she is all droopy...does that mean its getting to cold, i keep the window open all times. I dont have a theromoter. I know my water temp is 74* and ppm is 987.

I already have salt build up...will it ever stop?....what do i need to do to clean it?

Here pics as on right now light just turned on.....

OH AND... the roots are going crazy they are coming up the top of the hytron what do i do?

Don't worry about that root it will become woody where it is exposed to the light and grow down into the res. Lower your nute concentration a bit for the drooping try running like 600-700 PPM and see how the respond for a few days they look a little stressed, that curling and tip burn is the first sign.

looks good your are going to have to wait to see if the reduction in nutes helped the problem. As for knowing sex you will not until a week or more of 12/12. Just keep watching them those old leaves may never fully recover but new growth is the best indicator or current health.

Well it depends on how much height you have in your grow space but it is best to wait until the plants develop alternating nodes.

Yeah I like the system alot but its really the only one I have had. My last one I build so, yeah its the best one so far. The only problem is that my plant goes threw about half gallon or mare a day. I bigger res would be better. And there is salt deposit but i havent noticed anything happing from it i just clean it.

I put seeds in wet papertowels and put that in a baggy sprouted in one day. I put my sprouted root in my damp rockwool at a ph 6.0 waited till i say root through and threw it in my system

No nutes at first

three days later I added some thats when I got nutes burn. I would wait longer

changed back to just water and then added nutes later

18/6 lighting from there

watering 24/7

Thanks for posting
