yeah i have a 4 in bubble disk...just added another one...and will lower my water temp...any other suggestions?Quote:

I'd put in some hydrogen peroxide (3%) at 2 teaspoons a gallon every other day. An oscillating fan blowing on them would help with air flow as well. If you can get your room temps down below 80 that would make a difference.....photosynthesis slows down considerably in temps over 80 F. I can't say if this would apply to your water temp or not....just the room temp.
How often are you checkin your ph? What kind of ppm meter are you using....different ones calculate differently.
Also are you using any product like cannazyme....for the roots? If so....don't use the peroxide....can't use them both together.
And lose the superthrive at this stage....all that extra nitrogen can slow flowering down.
i have 2 large oscillating fans on them.Quote:

i rinsed the roots with ph'd water with h2o2 and got the water temp down to 70.i put the ppm down to 800. i hope this helps but it seems it maybe too late???
do you how long before i should see some change?
no cannazyme just peroxide. just did a res. change with no super thrive...thanks...)Quote:

thanks for your help...:)
That sounds good.....give them a few days. Can't tell if you if it is too late or not....said you lost one already? Watch your ph carefully. I'll check back.....;)
