That makes sense, ill try doing it again and will leave out the silica and see if i get the same issue , if not then u nailed it :)

I thought maybe my micro is old or going bad, you think this is some kind of an algae or some organic bloom ?

So I make nutrients in a 10 gallon tote and for the last 3 times this happens no matter what i do(see images ) Im adding , calmag, GH micro , bloom, grow, liquid Koolbloom and Silica. No matter how much time i give in between adding the nuts this still happens and i cant figure out what it is...

I get this feeling that most of these companies realized a while back that they can make a killing selling the same stuff in different bottles. if u look at at nutrient company feed chart there are more products to use then we as humans consume to stay alive and grow ROFL. Makes u wonder if all...

i got their feed chart and there are a bunch of stuff on there besides the 1 part nutrient. but i think i will stick with general hydroponics 3 part / i ran this cycle as a lucas formula but next time im gonna use all 3 parts. here is a pic of their feed chart.

this ionic feed looks interesting, have you used it before? They all say 1 part for veg and 1 part for flower then they have like 10 additional boosters lol

That's why I think I was getting nutrient burn. I kept dosing the nutrients @65gallons every time I did a water change not thinking that I no longer have 65 gallons and probably only have about 45 to 55 gallons of total water volume at max.

wow thats about half the water space taken up by the root mass. Thanks for sharing :)

Hey, that is a pretty good idea :) , it would be a pain but should work, thank u. Im almost done with this grow so i will test it out before i throw the roots away for the next round. It just did not cross my mind that my nutrient burn was happening because i no longer was filling the system up...

by googling it lol

see my issue is that my setup does not allow me to fully drain the system down to zero then fill it back up or else i could of easily measured it. What i do now is that i hook up my return pump to hose and dump the water out while feeling in fresh water from the res, i do this till the water ppm...

wet while in the water.

so i was wondering if anyone has ever measured just the root of a healthy plant after harvest? I know its a weird question, but i want to know a rough number if possible from someone, I have a 20 bucket rdwc system and wanted to calculate how much water the roots are basically displacing at...

I want to ask the community if anyone else is growing with 3 stage filter and having success? I can only think that the water quality is the issue

Im not complaining that they are eating like beasts but would love to find out why they eat so much the 1st day then sharp decline after that. from my photo which showed the last ppm of 870 and today it was down to 820 aka 50 ppm , so they went from eating 190ppm the 1st day down to only 50 the...

So I got a 20 bucket RDWC system setup and i am in week 6 of flower. I do a water change every 7 days. Wtemp is 70 and i feed them lucas 8ml/16ml + Liquid KoolBloom + Floralicious PLus ppm is about 1190 / 500scale and 180ppm tap water I have an auto top off setup with a 3 stage water filter...

Oh my system is not ebb and flow it's RDWC

Ya I will call them for sure but just to let u know airoclean420 also has non of the things u mentioned, im pretty sure they use a uv light or something like that to sterilize the air ( just wanted to put that out there lol - i dont work for them or care for them )

Have you heard of airoclean420? I wonder if it's the same thing? They have units starting from $999

thank u , ill give them a call tomorrow and see if i can get pricing. Hoping its not too expensive. also regarding gnats, i ended up putting sticky tapes under each tree and got mosquito bits, just put some in the rez in a sock and hope this gets rid of them for good.
