    Are these girls dying

    That's a great mentality to have, growing roots. That's what brought me to dwc. The first grow was stellar but this one is shit. So this all happened after the res change so it has to be that. The roots look good. I'll give it a few days the cut them down, they stopped drinking

    Are these girls dying

    So do you think it was cold shock. The water temp during the change was 50f. I have it up to 68 since last night no sign of improvement yet

    Are these girls dying

    Second run at rdwc, the Plants have no life in them. They are droopy and some of the leaves are crispy at the tip. We are having a few freezing cold days here at the moment so I put in an oil radiator which I've noticed has now caused the humidity to be down at 30%. I also changed my res two...

    What's causing this droopy plant

    Ok but I can't take them out of the net pot with the roots going through maybe it would be better to lower the water level do you think, stop any bubbles wetting it and let it dry out

    What's causing this droopy plant

    This started when I moved her from the early veg dwc tote to the large rdwc alien system. It's a couple of plants that have done this. My water is on point my lights are dialed back I don't know what is happening. The only thing is they are in 4" rockwool cube that I've never used before. Should...

    Brown root tips

    I'll just add to this that I think the issue is resolved. I raised the water right up to the net pot, did a better job at blocking the light, changed the res and added silver bullet. But most importantly it's worth noting that my pH pen was out by a whole digit. So when it said it was six it was...

    Brown root tips

    Great idea I have some black plastic soffit I'll use that. I didn't know that k is inhibited at that temp. Such a small margin for error

    Brown root tips

    The water temp is 19°c this is the first week I've had them in the tote with water and air. Weak nutrient solution. I can't get hydro guard anymore for some reason I can only get silver bullet which is the same thing. I'll put some of that in. I noticed some light is getting down into the res...

    Brown root tips

    Hows it going on my second run from seed here and noticed these infants with brown root tips. Also a bit droopy any ideas. My first thought was maybe the water is too far away from the bottom of the net pot and it's not getting much splashing so I filled up some water just now. I've also...

    bud candy in DWC

    Hello peeps I'm running my rdwc on advanced, I love it. I use it all except the beneficials voodoo/piranha/tarantula. Maybe I should use them but will they give better results for the price. I'd rather run a sterile system tbh. I'm using bud candy can't tell yet as it's only in the second week...

    Alien aero or alien rdwc

    Yes I've done soil for about 4 years then Coco for a while currently in a small rdwc system and love it, most robust explosive plants I've ever seen. I want to run my 8x4 tent with either aero or the rdwc. I just hate draining the system filling it a little then draining it again and then...

    Alien aero or alien rdwc

    I'm torn between which system to get. The aero is pretty much silent + no need for air pumps or water chiller. It seems like a no-brainer to go aero. I never suffer from power outages so I don't need to worry about that. The main thing is does aero create big yields like in dwc? Do you leave...

    First rdwc run

    Water temps are at 19 degrees 66f now that I put a chiller in today, it was 25/77 for a couple of days. By sterile do you mean no beneficial bacteria? If so then yes, I'm also using oxy plus. I adjusted ph back to 5.8 and added some calmag xtra

    First rdwc run

    Hello I haven't had plant issues in a long time but that was in soil. I want to conquer rdwc. What is up with this plant, the rest seem ok although they are all starting to get purple veins in the leaves. But this one is also droopy. I'm using regular tap water starting ec is .3 after nutes the...

    Rockwool cubes

    How long would you think i could go from seed in a 4" rockwool cube. I'm hoping to go 4 weeks from seed before I transfer it to the rdwc system. Wondering also what kind of watering practices would you have with rockwool

    Does bucket size matter

    Thanks for the advice, definitely going to go for the 36 litre. Bigger is better! In this case anyway .

    Does bucket size matter

    I'm just about to order an alien rdwc what can't decide on whether to get a 20 litre pro or 36 litre pro version. Would the difference in size really matter that much. Is it so you can veg longer. I don't really want a veg that long. Also is 8 pots enough for an 8x4 area
