Monitor tomorrow with your meter.
During veg water may not fall quickly unless off coarse you have some bushes.
The Ph and Ec will change, this is were I would read with ppm as it’s finer.

I did notice that the same nutrient water that was left over in a gallon jug had a much different EC than the water in the bucket, both had been there a few days. almost 1000 difference... the jug water was 2400 and the bucket water was 3400. I think the bucket had a lot of salt buildup or something, i had to do a lot of scraping to get whatever it was (salt or nutrients) that created a ring around the bucket, is that a good sign that i've been overfeeding?

I would think if my ec was even 2 , my plants would turn black and roll over.

Every nute line will be a bit different.

Going to try and be aggressive this grow and try to get to 1.5 , like 750ppm .

I try to find the spot were everything stays the same and the water falls . 4 plants in flower, this could be 4-5 gallons a day.

I will top it back up with exactly the save value of mix ,give or take a wee bit.

Enjoy and good luck

Brown on you roots unless it’s staining from nutes .
If it’s slimy at all then I would lean even further to yes.
There are many ways to go about keeping trouble at bay.
Pool shock, bleach . This product mentioned back a couple posts.
Then there is totally different way and run microbes to eat the bad creating good , hydroguard, or better yet orca.

If you can keep your temps cooler ,low 70’s and changed weekly you may not need anything .

Thanks guys, you rawk!
 
im going to order that Physan20 but i am reading

"4-10 drops of bleach per 1 liter of water (4-10 drps/L) is recommended in treating root rot. The diluted bleach solution is run over the infected root system and made to sit on the solution for 15 minutes "

does this sound about right?
 
I sprayed it with Physan20 a week ago, not sure if it's okay or not.

What is with the few stringy roots and then the rootball at the bottom? Is this okay? Am i doing something wrong to make it grow like that? Can it be corrected?

Any help is always appreciated! Thanks people!

Just posting a picture update - she is definitely growing faster & looks a little bit healthier than she did when i first posted - still wondering about the roots though (if anyone has thoughts about it please share them lol)

PH is around 6.1 and EC is at 1050.

Someone mentioned a possibility of mites, i have not really investigated it. Leaves do seem kind of pale.

Any thoughts or advice is welcome
