GreenLeaf420 Reviewed by GreenLeaf420 on 06-08-2008. Check Out the Stalks on DWC My plan's are leaning the lower stems look funny. When I tilt the plant it feels like it broke loose from the peat pellet. That's one of the mediums the other is hydrotone. The roots are popping out the bottom of the Hydro Farm Buckets they were doing really well till I noticed this. Thanks in Advanced GL420 Rating: 5

I was thinking of doing this with white poly. Pushing down the drip rings as far down as possible. Then stake them for support. Although I'm unsure how survival is looking for now. Probably I can just go W/ a 6" square poly cut and just lay it on the hydrotone. To prevent the water bounce back and just monitor it. If they are going to be able to flower stakes will be a must. A 6" cut may be better then a full CVR due to the humidity that will lock in below.

I also have this grow log for the buckets.

Listen to PlantHed.
And I would avoid adding RW to your system, as it holds even more moisture than HT. Your job is to allow the part of the stem where it meets the root to stay rather dry- this is what PlantHed referred to as the 'crown'. Especially if you are having uncontrolled splashing onto the stem, you will need extra air flow.

Hey Stink!!!!!:jointsmile:

I spoke with WH She said

Ok here are my thoughts:

Johnny....I love you. Every one in the world wants to add more and more. You speakum WISE words....less nutes and more O2. Great all around plan no matter what the problem until you can get a diagnosis.

GL....I dont see anything wrong with your plant stems. They look strong and healthy from the photos I see. If they are leaning then the issue is in the hydroton/and or your roots being weak/undersized/diseased etc and just not providing the support they should

You have pretty good sized plants for w/f buckets so you may well run into rootbound issues further in flowering. Imo cloning is starting to look like a good idea because of size issues only. That's something to consider because you already are going with more buckets, plants etc than a lot of us so if you are looking for MORE yield you may have to rethink your w/fs......just a bit of cud to chew on.

That being said.....the way to stop that leaning is to get some good gardening tape and tie the branches to the w/f. I ended up drilling some small holes in the sides of my tan buckets to tie branches to for lsting and they work great.

She had said the stems are OK but the roots are not blowing through the bottom the way they are on hers. I've been doing all you guys & Gals have said and the fans were added to the bottom...
