first-time hydro not lookin good

[koolhand77]

put a litttle h202 hydrogen peroxide in the water it will take care in the borwn. add like shot or 2 to the res.

I did earlier, maybe it just takes a while to take effect..

 

[koolhand77]

it shouldn't how big is your res I only have a 3 gallon tup with 1.5 gallons of water in it. it usally acts withen seconds. Gigger tub you might have to pour like 8oz or so in.

Yea I've got a 3 gal also, the roots do look better now. Any word on the Superthrive? I think its fine, but I wanna be sure..

 

[koolhand77]

I will call them for ya I haven't been down there yet as it's like an hour away.

 

[koolhand77]

They said you could use it. It's super concentrated so be carfull. one drop per gallon. should be ok.

Awesome, thanks so much for checking! The plant is looking really good, it likes something I'm doing! haha, I posted some pics. The only thing now I'm concerned about is the brown spots on the leaves.. It's not on the new growth though so I don't think its a major problem.
Again, thanks so much koolhand!

How is it going now?

 

[Grow it and roll it!]

Eh, a little better.. I cut off some dying leaves on the bottom, and got a res tank thermometer. The temp is approx 68 degress F. Its been in flowering for about a week because I'm dying to know what sex it is.. Hope its not too soon for that... (Tries to dodge rotten fruit). No sign yet.. But yes, its looking much better, thanks Roseman!
Here are some pics I took today.

you can get an Aquarium pH test kit at Walmarts for about $5.00. Or go to a swimming pool supply store and get one .

You have to know the pH to do HYDRO right!

Thanks Smokey, I'll definately add some h202 to it all. I'm not sure what the ph is yet, tryin to get my hands on a probe. I'll check it with these strips I have and get back.

If you're using Fox Farm, like I am, or any other ORGANIC fertilizers, the H2O2 will KILL the beneficial cultures in the nutes. So will Oxy-Clean & Epson Salts and some others. Gotta be careful what you use with organic nutrients.

Roseman, I'll be temporarily moving for a month, so when I get to my next spot I'll get a ph tester of some sort. The plant is looking much better now though, I'll let u kno when I figure it out.
HomeGrownHairy, thanks so much for the info about fox farms! I heard that about some fertilizers, I didn't even think of that!
I have 2 more pics below, trying to figure out was the bulb formation thing is in the middle!

That is the cheapest pH tester I've ever seen.
