Just do the same thing your doing with the AG, its not really that much difference except you have more gallons, those nutes you got doesn't have a per gallon rule for them?

I would just follow what it says for now, then slowly increase it week by week, might has to do a lil experimenting and see how the plants react

what kind of light are you using with your new setup
just built my own out of a shoe box with all white inside of it and a couple power strips with some plug in sockets and bout 6 or 7 cfls its just temporary until I can get a light hanger and a bulb but I'll probably just wait until they hit flower then put a new light in there.

to sicc: do i still change the water every week or since its more water and nutes I can let it last longer without changing it, if so how long?

Damn, im not too sure, i would try moving the lights up, is that the only thing there doing is drooping? is there any discoloring or burn spots?

after a couple hours of the light being pulled up a bit starting to see a bit of improvement check the before and after. so guess it was a lil heat stress forgot to put the thermometer back under the lights with the plants and it was 81 degrees not too good dropped down to 78 still not too good but better hoping they'll pick up by tomorrow keep ya posted

can this affect my flowering stage like being male if it's being stressed a lil bit I mean this is its first bad time throughout the whole period do you think it could affect that or is it just during flowering that problems matter to turn it hermie?

haha its all good man, your doing great. you still do the weekly rez change, that part is really key when your in hydro, you dont want a bunch of extra gunk left in the rez in that it will fuc with your pH and make it jump around alot, which you dont want, how are they looking today?
