    DWC issue identification

    I am pretty sure it is random unless the plant is really stressed, then it increases the chance of female. I am not the best person to know about this stuff though.

    Running 600 watt with 5 plants dwc

    More light that can be dimmed or raised is better than less light, unless you cross over into overkill. I am borderline that with a huge LED light in my 3x3. I love it to be honest but heat is an issue. I am dealing with it and will try to improve my tent next harvest. My light supposed to...

    I think I should start over.

    Chunk of dark brown in roots. Root rot ?

    Hey I battled root rot and won. It was a pain and kept coming back. What helped me I think is almost a week of 500ml peroxide a day spread over 4 or 5 times, chlorine ( I used pool shock and uc roots) daily as well and a little stronger than recommended dose and also flooding it right to the top...

    Water change before or after lights?

    When I search that I don't see any "deep cycle" timers. Just regular timers some of which I have. I have BUT as I was checking a few out to see if they do that, a different kind of timer was in the adds. It's called a short cycle repeat timer! I think it is what you are talking about and I love...

    I think I should start over.

    I am impatient and couldn't wait. I am stupid and I think it is the same scale so I went ahead and increased the led drivers by each so 120 more watts of light. Here are the new readings and 5 inches up I start reaching the max light of 75,000. I have a few inches of room to raise the light...

    I think I should start over.

    I did my water change last night, I kept it the same strength but last time I had to dilute it a little. This time I did not dilute it and left it at about 1/3 of the numbers on their charts. The plant is drinking a gallon every 12 light cycle and a little less than a liter the rest. It is also...

    Water change before or after lights?

    Can you link me to a timer? I had a hard time finding a mechanical one that breaks an hour into 4 parts let alone go down to 5 minutes. My digital timers can but they only have 10 slots to program. I am getting some wifi smart timers but they are for my lights and I am not sure if I can time it...

    Water change before or after lights?

    It was on 24h before. I think for big plants less time is much better. I am sure 5 minutes will work well too but my timer works in 15 minute chunks.

    Water change before or after lights?

    I am not sure what you mean but I piped my water farm to an external res and it's always circulating. I used 1/2 inch pipe all round and it's not fat enough for gravity to equalize the water level so I have it restricted to a low flow. I have new 1.5 inch fittings and pipe, and a second water...

    I think I should start over.

    Just an update. Things are going well, plant is stretching a lot! My light meter isn't here yet but I cranked the lights power up. I had dimmed it when plant was sick but now it's running 80w brighter than it was before dimming. I want to crank it up more but I'll wait for the meter so I don't...

    Water change before or after lights?

    Just making sure that's all. I stopped looking at my roots when I started flower. I just water change from the res I don't mess with the plant at all anymore. I was supposed to change water for this light cycle but I slept in. I topped it up with nutrients instead and I'll get to it when lights...

    Looking good. I don't usually trim leaves unless they are damaged but that's just me. I think your flowers look good for starting week 3.

    Water change before or after lights?

    What's the best time to change the water? I can't find answers everything talks about how regular not the actual time of day/light to do it. Such a simple question too haha.

    I think I should start over.

    Ok guys I have questions regarding the plants behaviour. Normally the plant drinks and grows, and the ph slowly drifts upwards. I guess this is the norm. I sometimes get periods, and I don't know what triggers it, where it drinks and grows like mad. While this happens, ph drops sharply. I want...

    EC/PPM Help!

    Dude I have the same one. It has an EC mode. Press the mode button. I never used it but I am sure I saw it. I may have the manual here if you want me to dig it up if I can.

    What EC in diff stages?

    I don't really grow from seed much but I've never fed a plant that small when I did use seeds. I would really think a plant like that just needs water, maybe a drop of food mixed in a gallon wont hurt. I'm sure more experienced people will reply soon. I would drop ec to .25 for now till someone...
