uh oh...i see a cloud on your horizon.

Ya closers good with the light. What are you using for fertilizer in the dwc. Usually those systems just drive themselves if your doing it right. Details would be good, start with that. Type of fertilizer w npk values, ppm, strain, light type, spectrum, distance from plants, light shedule, ph, water temps, RH of room, temps of room, length of your peter (jk). You know, all the good stuff that if you understand youll be a better grower oh and sit on your hands, i dont think its time to top it yet too small still

the lists goes on and on.

I don't do dwc myself but 6.5 seems high to me for hydroponic growing that's about what I shoot for in soil bro. Hopefully one of the more knowledgable heads will chime in and correct me if I'm wrong but that would be my assumption
