ya you should let it sit for a day or so maybe even longer because tap water has chlorine in it and that will evaporate after 24-48 hours

wait wait wait, your temp is 71 degrees C? i know thats probly not correct but could u correct me? maybe its a deficency, they are about ready to have nutes being that size. like blowed said leave ur tap water out overnight to let the chlorine evaporate. u should call ur water company and see what kinda ppm's ur tap water has. i have really hard water so i always buy my water from the store. turn the fan on too to help strengthen the stalk.

NPK. Nitrogen-Phosphours-Potassium. its the 3 numbers on the packaging. it tells you how much of each element is in the nute.

Yeah tap water should sit for like 24 hours, however I do not know for a fact but I throw water into a five gallon bucket and then I throw in some airstones and after about two hours I use it to water and have had no problems. I think chlorine evaporates when it is exposed to air, so blowing a shit load of bubbles into it should cause the chlorine to evaporate quicker, but like I said I have no way to be sure....maybe someone on here can help with this chlorine thing.

i would add some nutes to your watering routine. im no expert by any means, but u dont have any nutes runnin right now-your water is correct ph and you dont seem/look to be overwatering. i call nitrogen deficency. anyone else wanna take a stab?

I got sick and tired of buying 50 gallons of water. I was going to do a post on the airstones...maybe someone knows for sure.

Also I don't want to guess what he has, if it doesn't spread I wouldn't worry too much.

Under 100PPM, it seems to be doing the job just fine too....so far and it's been about 2 months.


EDIT: sorry wrong PPM number it's in the 170s...I had a senior moment there for a second
