First Ever Grow, Obviously

Oh God, I'm answering these questions to myself.

Of course it would be bad, because now my roots are in the reservoir, so when I am pouring the nutes into the res they are hitting the roots! Concentrated ProBloom can't be good for roots!

Dammit, I'm an idiot. Why haven't I thought about this? I am going to flush my system and measure out the nutes I need in the 5 gallons so no nasty concentrates are hitting my roots.

I don't really know if 30 min at 4.0 would do anything or not I do agree that you should mix your nutes up seperately always and adjust ph before you add it to the plants. Another thing would be big and sudden changes in water temp (more than 15 degrees difference or so) would be pretty stressful for your plants and may cause damage to the roots but I''m having trouble with heat causing lockout. I still think the problem goes back to fert buildup, just based on the issues I've had with it myself.

Hey cm, can you post some new pics? And if you can get a pic of the entire setup at once in some way, that would be great as well.......hps lighting off!!!!

Ok, just as long as it won't hermie all my girls in one fatal flash of the camera :jointsmile:

lemme go take a picture.

My girlfriend made me cannacookies yesterday and i had 2 about an hour ago and have been vaping for about an hour.

let's see if i can find my way to my bedroom

been trying to be nice on my lungs for a week or so

How could it hurt the girls?

They will just think it's lightning from some autumn storm :P

STOP AGGGG

[Weedhound]

don't take a photo during their dark period!!!! If it's not their dark period......then great.
Otherwise wait till tomorrow....


Even with Reverse you never know when the plant feels so personally offended it decides to hermie.....if i have one golden rule it's that I don't disturb the plants during their dark time unless there is an earthquake or something.

Autumn storm, lol.....mine never bought that.....

[cmasfca]

lol well might as well post them if I took 'em :P

tomorrow at the hydro shop i'll grab some reverse too haha

Hey cm.....those look really good all in all.....we just need to tweak your nutes a bit to see how can we can keep things ok uhtil the end. I would think about dropping your H202 at this point and thinking about something like hydrogard or hydrozyme (I use cannazym) for the roots. Not necessary but one of the 'zyme" products will help alot with enabling the older and dying (normal process) to uptake nutes until harvest.

What's your ratios at this point? I'd probably think about increasing your CalMag and dropping the bloom nutes a bit.....say in a 60/40 ratio and see.

Stoner!!! Don't freak out..... they are a WEED...... BTW I use a separate Rubbermaid tub to mix up the nutes, balance the PPM and PH before pumping them into the res with a little submersible pump I got from Harbor Freight Tools for about 10 bucks, connected to 2 bucks worth of vinyl hose from OSH. Works like a charm.

Thats POST flush of course.....
