I will extend germination as a week of vegetation because I was asked how to germinate seeds without mineral wool immediately in expanded clay. and I have no desire to change the previous week. today is 4 days since soaking the seed in a glass of water
I'm not sure if it's Calcium blockage in DWC the plant will lack CalMag even if you use nutrients for hydroponics ...to be honest i only used Atami and Jungle indabox nutes ...but i add CalMag.
@ArthurStotch, About Ppm 🤔 i got a totally different approach look at my diaries i go to the roof with it...it may be i use more nutrients because of that, but in all my RDWC grows (4 finished) i go easily over to 2000ppm or over and the plants are ok with it. But thats me it may be my well water...i start with 400500ppm of clean water.
I change the water when i notice that the plant drinks Less water these normally otherwise i do not change it, em just adding half the nutrients every 5 days or so that i would add to a freash solution.
@ArthurStotch,when deficiency shows on the plant i throw in 1.5ml per liter of solution, but if anything is ok my Calmag writes 1ml. is enough and it is.
@Hydrostyle, but I can not find a normal light-proof pot. I want to find a tall pot and no more than 6 liters. but I will try to find. I close this one from the light with cardboard and cloth
She's trying and I hope she makes it through! If it's worth anything, I start mine rapid rooters and then move them into the desired medium. Whether DWC with clay balls, souls or coco. They really help with the root structure and growth in the first week. 🍻

@Ze1ro, Yes. Thanks. I would try something like this but I don't want to add organics and the product from GHE needs to be ordered separately. but i think i'll try it next time because without it there is a big loss at the start👊
@grzegorzdelaurans, the heater is directed to the corner of the box and not to the pot. This is the back of the heater. but the plants still don't like it. I don't even know what to do. this has never happened before. I can't take off the glass and I can't leave the glass
Interesting grow, love the hydro techniques! Your pot is clear, does that affect the growth? I have always used lightproof pots. In any case, it will get much larger when you go to flower, depending on how long you veg. I will watch as you go. Nice to see another hydro grower here.
@Threetracs, Yes, thanks a lot. the pot is temporary because I do not like to work with large amounts of solution. even for vegetation there will be another pot. I wanted to find an lightproof pot but couldn't. I cover it with cardboard paper and cloth.
unfortunately the heater blew on the plant and it was damaged. but i have 1 more seed so i will reсover this one or start another one.
