Both tubs were changed... but I'm sure after the first feeding, the bacteria had been established... changing the rez may have brought down there numbers just as it was taking hold. Of course the tubs were not completely cleaned out between changing, so bacteria was still present on the sides, bottom, netcups, roots, air stone... well you get the idea... Introducing fresh nutes and sugar (appljuice), gave the established bacteria just what it needed to take hold and thrive... good thing I got to it before it did any damage.

Applejuice with water during flushing is still a possibility, and something I will try... I'll just keep extra vigilant. Since there will be no nutes... just water. Bacteria will have less of a chance to take hold.. that and I will be able to add some h2o2 lowering the risk of bacteria further..

I'll keep you guys updated when I flush... I'm only 2 weeks into flowering, so it will be awhile... stay tuned. =]

Yes I do waffles, but since I'm using mostly organic nutes... h2o2 will kill off the beneficial bacteria as well.... for any body out there using non-organic nutes in dwc.. should try out the applejuice with h2o2... and see how it goes... I have a good feeling it would have better results then mine.... how ever I still have the flushing option.

See from what i read i was under the impression that if you don't use to much it won't effect to the good bacteria and actually helped them thrive.

I don't think so... h2o2 could help the plants.. but will kill any single cell organism... in fact the plant will get some damage too, but nothing major and will gain more benefits from the higher oxygen levels.

Ever gurgled h2o2?
It will fizz and sting under your tongue and stuff... it's killing off most living tissue (that is were the sting comes from) You'll be fine.. but any living micro organisms are dead.

wolfman zen: i am in DWC using ionic nutes, i have a couple of questions for you.

1 what was your res temp.

2 is your res completely light tight

i am thinking of using apple/j as a flush, if you treat the res with h202 24 hour before adding the a/j that would kill all bacteria and give a clean start (i know you can not becuse of your nutes) i am just thinking aloud,

i have 4 oxy pot style DWC's i will be tring it in 1 when the time comes.

hope the plants pick up. O and thank you it may have been a set back for you but i am greatful for your input as this is something i will look out for. i would REP+ but i must spread the love first.

hey guys, i know youre talking about hydro stuff (way over my head)
but i am trying this applejuice experiment with my two girls. i am putting in applejuice along with molasses and let me tell you, these plants smell like pineapples. i have one question though, since this thread is 43 pages long and i dont want to spend 2 hours looking through it, did the apple juice affect the # of trichomes? if so, what did they look like (page ref would help me out)
thanks guys

Not sure on the rez temps, but the cab temps mover from high 70's to mid 80's and in the hottest of days it gets in the mid 90's (rare) and didn't happen during the experiment... So I'm assuming the rez gets a bit under what ever the cap temp is.

The rez is light tight.. though I'm sure there may be some slight light leeks via the netpots, but doubt it's any significant, and I have never had a problem before.

I like the idea of using h2o2 before flushing to kill off anything lingering... then giving them a flush with some appljuice and will try it myself.. lets cross our fingers and see how it goes.
