Why do they ask for the wet weight? Who gives a shit about that? The dry weight was 54g, 36 from Nikita and 18 from Yelena. The soil grow went well, the DWC had some problems along the way, expected growing pains. The DWC seemed to work amazing once I had sufficient lighting but it seems the damage was done. She grew big and had lots of bud sites but the buds themselves were pitiful in size and likely potency. Once cured, Yelena's buds will be used for baking....Nikita's early quality testing has been promising, enough to make up for Yelena's disappointing returns

Yellowing tips appeared in the last 12 hours. I've been using a weak solution of root booster but I'm not sure if the discoloration is from nute burn or deficiency. Once roots are established I'm planning on putting her in a DWC

No chance for deficiency, I give just water until she is twice that size. it's either nutrient burn or the beginning of root rot.

I'm using 5% acetic acid (vinegar) to lower the pH but with 6 hours it's always back up to the original pH. A similar bucket with no aeration remains stable. Is it because I'm using a weak acid? Is there any way to buffer the solution to keep it in the desirable range?

Roots are brown but don't feel slimy and give off no odour. New root growth is virgin white. Could it be discoloration from the nutrient solution or is it the dreaded root rot? pH is constant 5.9-6.1...I added 5mL/gallon hydrogen peroxide to be safe

Shes got about 2.5 weeks left, at first I thought the leaf discolouration was natural as harvest approaches but the necrosis has me worried. My guess is K deficiency. I was about to start flushing, will she make it to the finish line ok or should I attempt to fix this issue?

hey there misanthrope, this is just your average nutrient burn you can tell by the burn on the tips. You have me worried about how you're talking about having 2.5 weeks left yet starting to flush soon. In hydro you wont need more than a day of plain water for a flush - that's kind of the point of hydro actually. Anyways, not a deficiency, try to reduce the nutrients by 0.5 or a bit less mL/L then work your way back up week on week . Hope this helps ! ๐Ÿš€

Yes that's a bacterial infection. Its going to be a battle. Im assuming your in a DWC and not a RDWC. Directly spray the roots with a 3% mixture once every 2-3 days and do a bucket change. Every day add 2ml/L of h202 @3% to the bucket. Keep your usual feeding since your using synthetic nutrients which can be used in a sterile environment If you can add more air stones the more air the better. Keep the air pumps outside your tent( or even in a fridge ) to keep water temps down. If you can keep the water temp at 65F and never let it get above 70F( or below 63F). Use frozen water bottles and have your bucket sit in a larger tote with water in it and keep that water at the correct temp which will keep your bucket water correct. Get some white paper and place on the bucket top to block light from hitting the black bucket and heating it up. If you have access to hydro guard that can help, But its organic so it will be killed by H202. Good luck and Happy Growing

Keep your ph at 6.5 Fill the bucket with feed to the base of the basket, and let it drop. You're over feeding in my opinion. Stock to 750-800ppm. You'll get the same results as 1000ppm. As feed volume will drop,ppm's will increase and ph will lower. Both natural phenomena... Measure your ppm' and ph weekly and top up as required. Also crank up the air in the feed. You cannot have to much air .. Once you master dwc, you'll never want to go back to soil. Nice grow, btw...
