In the last 2 days the plants have stabilized (stopped turning crappy colors and spotting and dying) and have begun rapid growth again. On top as well as on the bottom. The PPM's have stabilized at around 800 for 1 plant and 1060 on another. So far, both are taking those nutes like little champs. The PH on both have stabilized at 5.7 on one plant and 5.8 on another. The hotter it gets, the higher the pH seems to go. Right now the rez's are at 73.4F and have been all night (It's a chilly night outside) and everything is going smooth. I now know I will NOT be able to see these flower as the heat outside is going to go nuts. I will take a clone from the better of the two plants and mother the clone through the summer and go full steam ahead once temps outside go down after the summer to at most 60. By then I will have the cooltube set up and will be ready for a full-on project.

This also gave me a chance to try these 5" round airstones. They seem to work real well but I want MORE bubbles. And right now I have 2 airpumps working together to pump one stone in each DWC, so 4 pumps altogether. What I was hoping for was a very fine mist of bubbles like you'd see when opening up a bottle of club soda. This is not exactly it. Can anyone recommend some good airstones to put in the bottom of the DWC buckets? That one pump will create a nice oxygen mist in the water? I was considering those flexible long airtubes. Anyone have any experience with these?
marx2k Reviewed by marx2k on . Identifiy the problem ~800 PPM CalMag + FloraNova Grow PH @ 5.6-5.8 at all times -- Skunk #1 -- These are clones under @ a little over two weeks of vegging - I did find algae in the res, so I changed nute solutions last night -- They are under 18/6 cycle -- Plants are getting progressively worse as time goes by. This seems to mainly effect the fan leaves... Rating: 5
