My first grow: 2 hydro, 2 soil (how do they look?)
I brought four clones home on 1/20. Two of them are G-13 x mango and the other two are Romulan Haze.
On 1/22 I bought 2 waterfarm hydroponic systems. I put one of each kind into a waterfarm and mixed up the nutrients recomended by General Hydroponics using distilled water. I left the other two in the cups I bought them in. I plan to transplant these two into three gallon pots in a few days.
I am currently vegging them under a 400 MH supplemented by 4 23w CFLs. As for ventilation, I have a 4" inline fan bringing in air from the rest of the house. To get the heat out, I have a 6" inline fan connected to the top of my hood. I have a fan in one corner circulating air over the plants.
The thermometer you see on one of the waterfarms stays between 70 and 80 degrees and humidity is around 65%.
My waterfarms use hydrotron clay rocks except for the 1x1 rockwool cubes the clones were started in. So far I have left the water on full time and I think this might be too much for them. What watering schedule would you recommend in these waterfarms.
How do these plants look to you. They dont look 100% to me and I cant figure out why.
My MH is very close to them (6-8"), could this be too close even though it stays below 80 degrees under the light?
Also, I have left them on a 24/0 light schedule so far. Should they be on 18/6 or can they be left at 24/0 for a shorter veg?
the one on the left is the hydro romulan haze, the one on the right is the soil G-13 x mango

nice set up mate lookin good ,put you hand between the light and the plant if you feel it then its to near,some people prefer 24/0 some18/6 ,i prefer 24/0 as they grow better but thats my opinion and it looks like a water prob hope it helps a bit but lookin good

you need to get that water schedule im not that up in hydro but they dont look good , your soil ones look ok, somebody help this guy out they plants need help

I would only do 18/6 if you cant afford the money to just have the light on for 24 hours, if you can afford it then I think you should do 24/0.

the one on the right in the first post is actually the Romulan haze in soil.

The drip you can leave on 24/7 but the distilled water is the question. Are you adding back cal-mag plus and a little hydrogen peroxide. your temps don't sound bad. What's your water temp that should be close to 68 % for max oxy content. Hydro likes it cool.

no I only added the nutrients to the distilled water and adjusted the PH to 6. I need to get a water thermometer. I am sure the water isnt above 68 but it might be way too cold.
where can I get cal-mag plus, and how much of that, along with hydrogen peroxide should I add?
