These are 13 days old to the system, clones were not the best when put into system (clone guy sucks). Roots are growing good but top are not and are compact as fck. My causin put the SAME strain in the SAME day as me in his UC sysyem and his plants are 10x as healthy and already a foot tall and nice node spacing. His clones were alot more healthy than mine though.

Room temp 78-80
Rh 75-80%
Lights 4ft above at 50%
Water temp 72 (working on getting it down to 67)
Running hydrogaurd all roots are pearl white
Ppm 550
Rdwc system with waterfalls
Water dropping
Ppm staying the same
Ph stable at 5.7

way too high.

ppms steady is no bueno. lower it until it is dropping daily.

they "might" need a quick flush: i'm gueesing they are nute locked now.
I has them started foe the first week @ 150ppm and they looked super defiecient so i bumped it up to 250 them 500*.not 550

Also this strain takes 21-30 days to root and tbese ones took all of 25 days. Could it be a stress issue maybe aswell from taking so long to root ?

Do you have rock wool in the hydroton?

where is your water level at? i would put it an inch below the netpot assuming you got plenty of bubbles. that "should" keep the rockwool dry.

keep us posted after 24hrs of 200ppm what it's doing.

what is your veg light cycle?

Im about 1.5" below net pot. Theres lots of splash from the waterfalls. Looking closer at them for awhile, they really look like they are reveging to me... is that possible from stress maybe? Light schedual is 18/6 was thinking about trying that 12-1 schedule during veg later though

the hard part to figure out is if all the plants are eating or if just a few are.

as a guess, the worst ones are locked out but the healthier ones are eating.

i would still drop it down to 200 to 250 or so and see what they do. it's easy to bump up the feeds after a day or so.

I routinely take my clones from the skirts of the in flower plants I'm cleaning up and all of them have a few pistils. I don't see any on yours. While that swirling looks similar to a reveg the tan burnt growth screams nutrient burn. Also check your pH after you calibrate your pH meter to make sure that swirling isn't from a pH issue. Good luck on this.

good call on the pH meter check.

Meter is 4sure calibrated. I do that every other week as maintance on my blue lab. Also did it right b4 all this went in. The yellow leaves are the ones that were there while the cuts were rooting. All the new growth has 0 burn on them.

I am definitely going to drop back down to 200-250 ppm though and see what happens. Like @rkymtnman said it cant hurt anything to watch what they do at it again.

I have to build a room to just clone myself in lol. These are what they all started out as 14 days ago.... they took so long to root that they were in some rough shape. The way the new growth is stacking is what makes me think reveg and a few of them do have pistol like hairs. But just a few, its fucked up honestly lmao. Im pretty sure after this run im swapping back over to rockwool on tables with an auto feeder. My veg time in that is almost identical to this rdwc and its soooo much less time work and worry.
