Hi everybody, This time the update is coming quickly because the site was not working, but the plant grew in the meantime haha. So I am really amazed how rapid is the growth in hydro system. I read about and saw it by other growers of course but to see this in real time is just incredible. This week covers a time interval of 10 days as I put the seedling in DWC at day 6 which was in the middle of the week. Grow tent was constantly controlled. In the tent temperature was 27 degree Celsius at the beginning of the week and 23 at the end with lights on 35-40% intensity which is 300-375 ppfd, mounted at 40 cm from the top of the plant. Checked the PH and EC daily. There is one thing which surprised me and I don't know if this is normal but every day I set the PH to 5.8 and a day after when I measured it again it jumped up to 6.3. Does anyone have an explanation for this? 07-09-2023 >day 6 Seedling placed to the net pot and built up the DWC with nutrient solution. The fun begins. Top watering the pebbles 2 times a day to promote side root growth. Day 7 Top watered twice a day. Nothing special. Day 8 First outward roots are visible. Still the PH fluctuates every day. I decided to pour some water out of the DWC to create gap between the net pot and the pool. Helping to supply air to the roots. Day 11 First root in the pool. Mixed a new solution and filled the DWC up to the net pot as advised by fellows. I will leave it like this for the first two weeks and then create gap again between the net pot and the pool. Day 13 from seed She is going strong, looks healthy. I saw some brown discoloration on the roots and I panicked that it wasn't a root rot so added 2ml extra hydrogen peroxide to the solution. It is still brown on some spots, mostly directly at the bottom of the net pot where the root grows. I hope it is because of the pebbles and not any root issue. I don't see any bad growth or slimy root or smell so I think it is just fine but I made a few pics for grow questions. Day 16 She is doing fantastic and feels good in the DWC. The first week went well in my opinion so let see what the next week will bring. I will change the solution today and raise the EC to 1.1 from 0.7 as the first leaves grow, and not slowly.💦 Hope everyone has a great weekend with a lot of tasty bud to smoke.🌞💨 See you next week.

I would like to know if this discolouration because of the clay pebbles sitting constantly in the DWC pool and colouring the roots or from nutrients or is this a root problem? There is no slimy thing or bad smell or stunt growth which can be detected.

no slime, no smell and growth seems okay? probably a stain from ferts. clay pebbles can be dusty if not washed off, but i woudln't think that would stick as well.. those are fairly large particles vs what causes staining. guess it'd be a bit gritty if from the leca balls? those particulates are "heavy." keep the water agitated/oxygenated, and sould be fine. (bubbles stir)

Hi Growmies, Two weeks ago i noticed that there are some yellow stripes appeared on the top leaves. The PH fluctuates in DWC can this cause some micro nutrient deficiency but I don’t really know. Do you have any ideas what could be? Thanks

By look magnesium deficiency starting. Epsom salt quickest way to sort out.

I looked at your feed regiment and i see you are already using calmag, thats good. What i suggest you do is raise your pH to 6.2. You'll issue should resolve within a week to 10 days. Looks like magnesium. Having said that, and i see other's have determined it to be magnesium deficiency, remember, MAGNESIUM is a mobile nutrient. Plants will rob nutrients from peter to pay paul. Meaning, plants will pull nutrients they are short on from it's own plant tissue generally taking from the lower leaves to support the canopy growth. So, you aren't seeing a tiger striped leaf anywhere on the bottom half of your plant, then there's a good chance it's not magnesium. But in any case, your pH is not in a good spot for ideal calcium and magnesium uptake. As i mentioned, 6.2 is far more favorable, for Phosphorus as well. And in all fairness, there are not set rules for how a plant will rob itself of nutrients. Typically magnesium manifests on older lower growth, but not necessarily always. I think upping your pH to 6.2 is a very good place to start.

That brown color on roots is due the clay, pretty common! I hate clay 😂 About the ph swings: 1) you r watering through the clay, this increases the ph of the solution in dwc. You will find residues on the bottom when you make the next solution change; 2) in my experience after each DWC change it takes about 2 days to stabilize well. Obviously a lot depends on the water you use, when I used demineralised water things were definitely simpler; 3) use Ph down by Ghe, definitely superior to others on the market; 4) use the chemical pH test which is more precise than electronic pens; 4) try to note down the quantities of PH down you use and what effect they have on your solution, so as to avoid errors / be able to solve them quickly. Hope can helps 😊 ps. Stop with top watering

Thanks a lot @DeepWaterGrower, The root looks much whiter this week. I stopped top feeding but the PH still fluctuates even I am using GH down. The plant seems okay as I fix the PH daily.
