I was having a convo last night with @OneHitDone that maybe in the past I was not mixing the Nova well enough and now with the gallon jugs almost down to half way I am and if this might have something to do with it.....? Who knows but it always comes out thicker now and I am having to add PH up for the first time. This is why I want to re calibrate both meters as well to remove that as a variable. On my old PPM tester too my tap was measuring half the PPM it normally does..........

Also wanted to add, that I did not add cal mag yet to the R/O because then I wouldn't know if the R/O by itself was even doing anything.........I like to change things one at a time in a situation like this to help isolate the issue even if it may take longer.........

The FN Bloom is one of the stronger buffers I've ever noticed in any nute solution. If my tap ever came out less than 6.5 I would have needed ph UP myself as well.
Dont run the RO without cal mag too long. There is zero present in it and your plants will show deficiency real quick without it, certainly in hydro since things "come to light" far quicker than in soil. But just the same, things can be remedied quicker in hydro vs soil.

No the cal mag will be going in soon the cuts are showing yellowing already lol.......
Curious to see how the ionic hard water works with the tap when it gets here...........

What is the ppm on your tap water? Just curious.
Tried RO once , never again.

Usually my tap is somewhere in the 225-250 ppm range. Yesterday was 125........big change there.What is the ppm on your tap water? Just curious.

Thanks for the kind words but I'm still concerned on the yellowing so not 100% comfortable with where she's at right now.

That 225-250 range was what I was working with in hydro using gh micro and Bloom. No pH up or down needed.
That is a big drop in ppm? Wonder what caused it?

I have no clue bro, that's why I am going to re calibrate my meters and see what's up first might just be that. But I need to get the right solutions for my bluelab pens at the hydro store tomorrow. Was at the clinic yesterday and today for my monthly oil changes lol

There will be a couple of updates later waiting on R/O water right now so I can water and feed........

Well here's the big GG girl, I have not watered or fed here again yet. The top of the Coco is starting to dry but she can wait. The ten gallon pot is helping for now with frequency of watering I am assuming. I'm not happy with how she's looking but at least she's not dead lol.
She just don't look right to me is all some folks have said this yellowing is normal under LED's not sure. But this issue started before she went under the LED so........
On another note, I watered/fed the Auto again today as well as the two smaller plants in the same tent with her. Still no signs of sex on the bag seed Blue Dream seedling. I think I waited too long between watering this time on these but hell they'll be ok. I'v had a rough couple days too so lol.... sorry about the colors being off from the blurple but I ain't moving anything today just for pics:
That's it for now, the Ionic Hard water nutes are on order and have shipped so hopefully mid week next week that has arrived. I am really crossing my fingers that the tap water in combo with that will have me good again.......

Today I watered/fed GG#13. She got R/O water, with cali magic, and Nova Bloom @ 1.5 EC, PH was 5.8, let's see how she responds to this feeding now. She has kept stretching and what not just some of the new growth looks odd still.
And a little love for my Mephisto Sour Hound F2 that I got out of the tent for a bit:
That's all for now..........the Ionic Hard Water nutes are set to be here Wed according to tracking info........and still waiting on some parts to build the other 2 DIY LED lights.............
Thanks for checking in
Cheers!
