hey guys question for you. I have 6 plants in an aero/nft system. they are roughly 4-6 inches tall. my tap water is 220ppm. I am adding only 50 ppm to my water, and yet after two days my ppm has doubled to 400. What should I be doing here to help ofset this drammatic increase. I'ts...

yeah they dont look awesome do they. I'm hoping at least a couple will pull through. enough to clone from and run a second batch. it's crazy how quickly they went downhill. beautifull one day, almost dead the next.

hey guys, been a couple days, I did a 24 hour fresh water flush, now I have my ppm at 300, ph 5.8, water temp 65-70 room temp 70, still looking very droopy. I was a 30 sec on 3 min off water, now I have lowered it to 45 sec on 8 min off. I'm not sure if I havea watering problem of if they...

thanks guys, i'll flush and i got a new meter yesterday so we'll see how it works out. The big difference between mine and the pics is i dont have that brown dry look, they are still green and spotty, just some of the leaves are super dry. ill take a couple more pics today of the actual plants...

i have calibrated my meter, but perhaps it's time to take another look at it. a lack of phosphorus will make leaves crunchy? would the nute burn cause the light and dark green spotting on the leaves. Cheers.

Hey guys, I have run into an issue. My room got up to 90F the other day and i have now fixed it so its back to about 74. My plants started drooping, and have since in the last couple days gotten much much worse. I'm running an Aero / NFT in pipes system, ph 5.8, ppm 600. My plants are about...

Hey guys, quick electrical question for you. I'm learning a bit about electronics, but I'm having trouble wrapping my head around how to apply ohm's law with a regulated power supply. Basically I have a 24v 1.5Amp regulated power supply, and a sensor that I need to power that consumes 6v and...

Yeah I was afraid of that. I put em into veg about a week and a half ago, maybe i'll top a few and leave the shorter ones and see how it goes. Cheers,

hey guys, so here is my question. I have a few babies on the go, and i don't have a ton of ceiling height. I waited to long to flower and now I have a bunch of plants that are tall, and only one week into flowering. Currently they are maybe 12-18 inches away from my 1000W hps air cooled...

Hey guys, a little BG for ya. I got there 3 weeks ago. They came with mites. Had the battle, used alcohol and after that a DR Doom fog Bomb. Needless to say they suffered from the combination of all that. So now it's been about 4 days after the bomb, and things are looking much better...

hey thanks for the hint. I actually put a few more clay pellets in all the pots and there was some transfer from the wet clay pellets to the leaves on the plants. I'm not actually foliar feeding them. However, I'll turn down my watering frequency a bit and hopefully I'm getting an AC unit...

Hey guys, thanks for the help so far. Look like it's gotten worse over the course of the day. I think it's heat stress like I was advised, but I'm posting some more pics just in case. I moved my light further away and threw in another fan till tomorrow, now the air temp around the plants is...

Hey guys, thanks for the quick help, I moved my light further away and brought in a bigger fan to blow the air around a bit more. Hopefully that helps bring the temperature down. I think i'll go get a window shaker tomorrow to help keep things in check as I turn more lights on. I'll keep...

Hey guys, I have a few babies that I got from a buddy, been in my system for 4 days. I have my water at ph 5.9 rez temp 68F air temp at leaves 90F PPM of General Hydroponics 260ppm. I have my watering cycle set up for every four hours 24 7. 18 hours of light a day with an air cooled 1000w HPS...

hey big bud balls. Thanks for the heads up on bricktown. I do have my sensor now, a couple of them actually, I'll grab the specs in the morning and post em online for a look. Good hunting (and by hunting, I mean growing) Ladies and Gents.

Hey there Bricktown, Nice work on the thread. I'v been tearing thru the thread in search of some PLC related information and didn't find any, thou I didn't look at every page. I'm in the process of learning to use my new Click PLC in conjunction with cheap CO2, temp Humidity, light and water...

hey guys, thanks for the posts so far, I'll get some pics up so i can confirm it. I just thought it was strange in that my area has TONS of ventilation and a fan blowing on the leaves at all times. I suppose that my just not be enough. I'll keep you posted, cheers.

hey guys, I have what I think i s a huge problem. My plants over the last few days, or week, has developed white powdery shit on the leaves, all my leaves are curling down and looking not super hot. on one of the plants I saw a little bug, but I'm almost positive it's not a spider mite, as I...

hey guys, well thanks for the tip, I have not added a 3 head spray system to to mix as well as the fogger. I'm surprised that it's not working that well, as I have seen a couple demonstrations on you tube with a single head fogger, and the plants it grew seemed impressive. however, having now...
