7/3 cleaning res every sunday, water temp stays about 80 degrees ppm tested at 260 today so shes taking in some nutrients, keeping about an inch between net basket and water
7/4 decided to try out mainlining instead of lst route, read to grow up to 5 nodes and cut at the third node and remove all growth under third node
7/5 ppm was 240 and 78 degrees added cal-mag to raise to 410ppm
7/6 cleaned res ph of water about 5 added 5 tsp dyna grow and 2 tsp cal mag to get 300ppm also added more hydrogaurd alt
7/7 roots always look unhappy after I clean res,
7/8 topped for the second time for my mainline, inside res few white healthy roots still growing long at bottom of res, a lot is clumped with the bad roots not sure what to do๐ ppm 290 and 90 degrees ๐ญ added more dyna grow to make 590 ppm and tsp hydro guard alt
Hey Hannibis. Just thought I would mention looking through your diary that ph is 7. Needs to be 5.5 to 6.0 for veg and 6.0 to 6.5 for flowering, or your girl will have some troubles soon.
Should also mention that your humidity is a high for a water grow as well. 50% Rh is good for hydro grows as the humidity right at your plant is much higher. Cheers my friend and enjoy the grow.
@GMSgrows, good point growmie youre right i should add some PH-down to my bucket, 7 is more of an estimate since I'm using the cheap liquid PH tester instead of a PH pen (bluelab is the only one I've heard reliable reviews on but pricey) and humidity wise I didn't think about it being much higher near the plant since it's a water grow--thanks for the pointers!!
Looks absolutely amazing Hannabis, is this your first mainline? I have definitely gotten my best yields and fattest colas from this, very nice work ๐ช !
ahhh thank u so much!! yes my first mainline and I'm so happy with the results so far too, honestly less work than when I was LST'ing, thanks for stopping by with the kind words ๐โค๏ธ๐ฑ
