First grow in a long time.
Using a drink cooler as a reservoir. 2 6" bucket netpots on top and an access hole.
I have 4 Bubble-Bubba BubbleMac Air Diffuser Air Stones going, powered by a VIVOSUN 332 GPH 4 Outlets Adjustable Air Pump
On 3-5 I put my White Widow seeds into General Hydroponics Rapid Rooter Plant Starters.
I had preped the starters by soaking them overnight in tap water (Im on a well, 230 PPM I think, need to test again), adjusted to PH 5.9.
Both poped on 3-9.
Didnt take any pictures till 3-12 when I put them in net pots and filled the reservoir to just touching the bottom of the net pots , thats what you see here.
Res has 2ml/gal of General Hydroponics CALiMagic & 5 ml/gal of Botanicare Hydroguard
hey there PartyBoy, what i'm seeing is a collection of diverse, unrelated symptoms, upward curling, downward curling, discoloration , spots, on the sides of the leafs, strage wrinkles, etc... that's from pH fluctuations inside the tank. The good news is that for you it was "light". The affected areas will probably not recover but basically the hydroguard probably couldnt buffer the pH for a small about of time it raised the pH, then quickly lowered it causing these symptoms. It's basically a freak occurence, and there's nothing you can do with your current set up to make sure it doesnt happen again, except verify and improve all fixtures, pipes and especially tanks so there is absolutely no light going there , keep the temperatures stable, keep adding hydrguard. And i'l quite sure you're already doing this, so keep doing what you're doing, and that's it. Hope this helps ! 🚀

7PM PH6.1 PPM504 EC1008
4-9 Res Change PH6.1 PPM550 EC1090
Invested in a RO water filter system, hoping that will clear up plant issues. #1 is not growing too fast while #2 is growing at a good rate the leaves have upward curling and others have downward curling. I cut back on the CalMag and leaves are dark green, a bit too dark I think. Will install it and use for next res change.
