Had some major root issues due to water temps with the buckets being elevated up off the floor. Almost lost my whole garden but have it back on the rails now and looking strong as ever but basically cost me 2 harvests.
Essentially went to a Bato bucket type drain in my 5 gallon buckets with 100% Perlite as a media.
Moved this batch into flower last night:

Were your buckets a foot or more off the ground?Hmmmmm...
I don't chill my RDWC anymore. I went with waterfalls and roots are stable and healthy.
No, but the cooling came from the evaporative effect of the waterfalls. The concrete floor reached 80F in the daytime because it absorbed radiant heat from the lights and the air.Were your buckets a foot or more off the ground?
The plants are sooo much more fragrant with their roots in the Perlite than in water

Hey brother, how did this cbd adventure go for you?This is a quote from my friend that is sending me the seeds.
" It's a strain I stumbled upon a cross between a pineapple express auto and a unknown Hawaiian strain, (I think is was the 90 day wonder male) Long story short insane pure sativa look that's thick with frost but won't get you high. It's what I'd call a semi-auto. My outdoor plants (and my friends) started to flower July 8th 70 days after planting the seed. It's a 9 to 10 week flower period."
That's all I have on this strains, but going to do a run of it.

These girls are in week 2
