Mick420 Reviewed by Mick420 on 09-14-2007. Anyone seen this before? This is a small 2gallon hydroponics container and every 3 to5 days it gets this white chalky stuff at the bottom of the bubble stone! Not sure what it is and have never seen it anywhere else. I use well water and my friend thinks it's calcium settlin at the bottom! I also have another question for you, why do they look like this! What is this brown crap, I don't like my girls looking all busted up. Rating: 5

All right so you've now seen that there is an interaction between your nutrients and some combination of water/dissolved gases in your res.
If there's a hydro shop nearby, take a tapwater sample to them to see what your EC is- you need to figure out if you can even use your tap water with ANY nutrients. And you DO need nutrients!

the rest of the pics.
The 4 little ones are I think almost 2 weeks and they are doing fine but i did move them into the res. theother night when I cleaned it out.
So they have had no nutes!
