Well I wanted to try some things for myself. So I cut 1/3 of runtz down after a 3 week flush. Then I added florakleen 30ml for 3 gallons for 34hrs. And cut down the last 2/3's.

Will update after proper cure at 6 weeks, 3.months and 4 months

What causes foam in a hydrobucket? Read maybe too much air in buckets. Turned down air pump. no change. How to combat? Using OMRI CERTIFIED ORGANIC nutrients just started grow, moving week old seedlings to Hydrobuckets and 24hrs after mixing fresh nutrients got foam in buckets

Contacted Advanced Nutrients about if foam in a bucket is normal from their Nutrients and got this from them "With organics in hydro you may need to change the reservoir more frequently, the foam itself isn't going to harm the plants and is a byproduct of running organics in such a bubbly system with an air stone and such. In general, organics are not as reservoir friendly over time as mineral based nutrients, this is due to the biological activity and lack of preservatives. It is doable however as long as your are prepared for the challenge. Some tips for longevity are inline filters and air bleed valves, etc." Reached out to Hydrobuckets to see what they thought. If they have experience with this and advice. And got this in response from them "Some products will cause the solution to foam a little bit. Hmm. It must be to do with the nutrients. I’m sure it’s fine. You could inquire with Advanced and see what they think. I will sometimes get foam with a Chitosal product but never with base nutrients I run as many bubble as possible so that shouldn’t be the issue Hmm. I’ve always wanted to grow organically in DWC but have never found a product that works."

Can anyone help me in the right direction on what the plant is telling me she needs. I'm getting yellowing on lower leafs and spotty yellowing on upper leafs. I thought maybe light burn for spotty yellowing and raised light a few inched with no change. I appreciate the help!

Are you running a cal mag? You need one. Your nutrition is extremely light. I am curious to what the roots look like? Are they slimy. Does the Reservoir stink bad? What is your ph doing in 24 hours? Going up or down? I do dwc. Hit me up in dm so I don't miss your message.

So I went thru all my nutrient bottles from the whole line of OG Organics and set pictures of all the bottles and what they looked like. And got a totally different response then I did the 1st time. Now I didn't send pictures the 1st time and I did the second time which included the 2 with what I thought was stuff growing in the nutrient bottles. So anyhow this is the response I got from Advanced Nutrients about if it was normal for the nutrients to look like it did. And of I should send them back for a exchange if they were questionable. This was in response to pictures of 2 nutrient bottles with what looked like stuff growing in it. "The product looks good, the tiny stringy bits are due to the lack of preservatives in organic products, however should not cause any problems whatsoever." This was in response to a pictures of the inside of lid and top of seal with hole in middle and stuff leaked out hole slightly "not a problem here,Β  the bottles have a vent in the cap to allow for expansion/contraction,Β  it looks like this bottle was upsidedown at some point." This was in response to a picture of the base nutrient bottles having build up on sides at opening "100% fine, just give it a good (emphasis on shaking hard) shake, looks normal." This was in response to another picture of build up on in side of bottle. "100% fine,Β  as always with the organics, shake hard" This was in response to build up inside bottle "Looks good" This was in response to stuff on seal and inside bottle. "100% fine,Β  this is a product that definitely needs to be shaken hard" So I guess the brown foam was not from nutrients being bad. Just wanted to add the response from manufacturer. I'll include pictures i sent to them

On colorado cookies I'm getting slight yellowing on the exterior edge of the leafs. What causes that. Would a Humidifier right next to it with mon ph tap water in It cause this? Its the only one that has it.

Do you have 2500 ppm in your water? If so you need to change it and take 1/3 of the nutrients. Max 1500, but in your stage is should be around 1000 ppm. Nice grow πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘Œ

@DWCpaqy, Well, I've been adding feeding every week. So my EC is alot higher then 5.0 and the plants are happy. So until I figure out how to keep them happy and not add a full feeding every week and not change resivor every feeding. Then I'm stay to course. I did refresh resivors just to get EC back under 5.0. But I always add at the bottom of my grow updates a link to my excel file that I keep track of my ppm, ec, water temps, how much was drank in 24hr,. Check it out. But I've been up to 12 EC and plantsvare happy and no the solution in the bucket is not mud lol. I have to add 2L or close to it every day. I'm trying to figure out without changing bucket water but twice a grow how to not have ec higher then 5.0 and not have a unhappy plant. here is the most current copy here: https://1drv.ms/x/s!AmTQ-7u9iyH6kDFcBT1QhRk7ttv4

@Juschiln420, I have the same problem now. New fresh water 220 pmm with nutrient 950 ppm waited 2 days 1500 ppm and added 5 liter water and now is 1800 ppm. And I think is salt from the nutrients, going to flush to see if it's the problem.
Juschiln420
Juschiln420
@DWCpaqy, So I've been adding full feed every week. And only opting to change resivor water 2 times a grow. Once at switch from veg to flower and once when flushing. So at 800ppm a feeding it goes over 1500ppm in 2 feedings. So of I don't add more nutrients even tho the ppm is at 2000ppm the plant will have deficiencies. So how does one not add more nutrients but high ppm but not have a plant with deficiencies? That's what I don't understand.

Hey man, good idea to change nutrients line to mineral. I love dwc!
Juschiln420
Juschiln420
@DeepWaterGrower, Thanks man! My goal is to figure out what I missed and master organic dwc. Trying to figure out if it was from bad nutrients and stuff growing in them. Or if I overlooked something else. But I'm definitely staying with DWC for sure! But I will be going to organic DWC. I'm a medical user and after surfing around to different dispensary I found that I perfer organic flower. Mainly because I was tired of getting stuff from synthetic grown dispensaries and it would look good smell, and smell good but taste like a jar of chemicals. And when I went to a organic place never happened. So I go to a organic dispensary and want to grow organically in hydroponics. I know its mainly uncharted territory. But I don't care. I don't mind the unbeaten path because it makes for a spectacular journey.

Can't go wrong with a 40+ yr old formula. Currently using the same, and will prob always use it. Everything's in there a plant needs to thrive (macro/micros). You CAN sweeten it with additionals, but ya dont need 12 add ons just to make a full system. Goodluck with your grow

Happy growing bud! You might be right about your plants being a little stunted but don't worry just keep doing your best to figure them our individually, I had all of my girls stunted like yours through the first couple of weeks due to some mistakes from my side and missing some key things like Hydroguard, but now she's looking much better and has grown much bigger than I had dared hope when she wasn't doing well! I have a diary on one of my girls if you want to check it out for some encouragement! Best of luck, and I'll be keeping an eye on your diary!

Hey man. 2500(5.0EC) is absolutely psycho for DWC. You should be at max 1200 and that's at peak week around week 5 flower. In addition, you're on autoflowers which don't need as much food as photos either, so you need to take that into account. Rule of thumb is hydroponics feed is ~70-75% of the recommended top feeding strength, and sometimes they have a chart specific to hydroponics. I really don't think many nutrients will recommend even close to 2500ppm even for top feeding/drain to waste, that's a wild number. Also you can take a look at all my journals. I use autopots which is similar to DWC, as far as feed strength goes. I usually cap max at 1150(2.3EC) with photoperiods and with autos I usually capped at 900-950ppm and usually got 1.5 to almost 2 pounds dry from 4 autos. Less is more sometimes. If I were you I'd mix the ratios from your nutrients like usual, then dilute it down to 900ppm @ ~6ph. Maybe 800, since they are past peak week. Good luck man..if you got any questions feel free.

Juschiln420
@nerdz, Hello. I think I filled it out wrong. I put the current ppm not the ppm each feeding. I'm at 800ppm a feeding. But I appreciate you pointing ting that out. Because I agree if I was feeding at 3500 a feeding that would be insane. But I'm just adding to the bucket each feeding, instead of dumping every week and running fresh water each feeding. I appreciate all help and advice. Thanks again

@thesparebr, Hell yeah bro! I'm just getting started. Yeah I dabbled in growing like 8 to 10 years ago and did a few diy hydroponic and lighting setups in a closet. And I wanted to get a actual tent and a legit grow light and see what i could do. I know I'm going to make a few mistakes. I did a ebb and flow before. So 1st time dwc But looking forward to getting the hang of it and growing my own dank dense nugs!
