First grow Recirculating DWC

[Illusion]

Why thank you for the rep!
If I can't find a place to buy RO water by the gallon, I guess I'll just use friggin tap water. (let it sit/aerate for 24 hours) ppm of the tap here is 180

I hate sativas anyway..they flower too long, I don't enjoy the high-- why couldn't i have been blessed with some indicas? That'll teach me to grow bagseed.

I'll post an update after they have been flushed
thank you for all the help :jointsmile:

Haha, yeah, I started some bagseed, and only found one female Indica, but she's a beauty. Depending how the smoke is, she could become a keeper. Love the indica.

If your PPM is only 180, why aren't you using just tap water? Unless there is something horrible in there, that water seems ideal.

Yeah, but what would be *more* ideal, tap with 180ppm, or RO water and adding cal-mag to make it 180ppm?

I do just fine starting off with well tap water that's around 200 ppm. And there's nothing wrong with bag seed, as long as the seed in the bag is from a good plant.

I would honestly say the tap. I would only ever use RO water if my tap was horrendous or if I wanted to micro-control the micro nutrients.

I think you've developed nutrient or pH lock. Did you tell us the pH? What's happening is you're killing your plant by choking it out of nutes.

You need to flush it like OY said. Get some Flouro Kleen, or Final Flush, mix per directions and do that for about 3-4 days. Then lets mix up some light nutes with pH balanced water and you'll be back in business.

Alright, well i found another male leaving me with just one plant left
Of course with my luck, it was the neglected plant "spracky" who i honestly didn't care for us much as the other two i had to kill

Just my luck, eh?

Its 20 days into flower, and spracky still hasn't shown any signs of preflowering. Im thinking its because of the fact it's had too much N, and is delaying the flowering process

I'm also pretty sure it's got to be a female-- because i found 2/3 males, and the males usually show their sex first, and perhaps males will produce their pollen sacs with a lot of nitrogen, and females won't produce their flower with too much. At least thats what i hope!


So spracky has been flushed for over 24 hours with just tap water, I set the pH to 5.5, and it drifted up to 6.0, and i had to set it back to 5.5 again, hoping to negate some of the over nitrogen effects,

I'm just about to dump the reservoir out again, refill it with tap, and then use 1/4 tsp per gallon of Maxibloom (NPK = 5-15-14)



Anyways, here are some picture of my last plant left.
Wish me luck with it being a female y'all, please!!!!

She don't look too bad. She might just load up with buds.

Opie yutts, it that might have worked


ITS A !&$#ING FEMALE !!
