Water temp is around 71F and I am not sure of the pH... Here's some pics of the roots that look a little weird and a pic of the plant in the box. I'm getting a little better at this picture taking thing haha

I would say def. check the PH, roots def. dont look right. I dont know hydro though, but i know brown roots are bad!

i dont know much about hydro but the roots look short and thick to me maybe lower the water level to get the roots to stretch!!

I'm going to try lowering the water level tomorrow and add H2O2 at the correct dosage to get rid of anything bad. Hopefully that does the trick and brings back the nice white roots

Thanks for stopping by GypsyBush! I'm going to take some pics today when I rearrange things in the veg box.

There's a major difference in growth rate that is for sure. With the MH bulb in I noticed shorter stockier growth. With the HPS there was a little stretch but not a considerable amount.

Alright so I think the root problem is getting better. I added some H2O2 last night and today the roots are looking less brown. I'm going to try re-working the airstones in the container to get more even bubbling on the surface. I got some pics that you can all check out. The first one is the flower room where you can see I added some All-star Strawberries to the mix. They are on the bottom left of the picture. The second and third picture is of the DWC veg plant and it's roots. The fourth and fifth pic is of my cantaloupe seedlings. I wish I knew how to post pics in the post and not as an attachment... Can anybody help me out and fill me in on how to do that? lol

Tom

Thanks a lot dsn +rep for helping me out! The pictures show a small greenhouse I bought at Lowe's for $35. The plants that make that greenhouse there home are: Zinnias, Oregano, Red Pitcher Plant, Nasturtiums, pumpkin, Eggplant, bush beans, basil, sunflower, peppers, watermelon, chives, spearmint and dill. Most of them are seedlings but they won't be like that for long if all goes well

Tom... everything looks so good...

Before I go into anything else, I just wanted to suggest covering the sides and back of you greenhouse, so the light from the window reflects back to the plants...

It's just an idea... and I am not trying to get here and start telling you what to do....

It's just that I think you could have double the light in the greenhouse...

Oh yeah I was most def planning on doing that, the only thing is I need some more b&w poly plastic. I think I might just move the whole thing outside when the time is right. I just gotta find a good spot haha. Thanks for the comments Gypsy
