Well it's been a war between solution temps in the 80Β°F from the recirculation pump to the roots being unhappy with the nutrients at full strength. And even having issues going down past half strength. Maybe foop is not the right option for me or maybe it's just I picked too big of a Recirculation pump and it caused excuses heat in the 3gals of solution. But after switching back to air stone and solution tempsndropping back to around 68Β°F she seems to be doing better but now back too if I feed at full strength the roots turn stale get a brownish look amd the plant don't seem to do anything.
12/4 ph
12/6 added wk 1 seedling 10ml hydroguard
12/7. Added 7ml cal mag
12/9 added wk3 seedling, 20 ml hydroguard, 20ml cal mag
12/10 refreshed feed 1/4 wk1 flower 30ml hydroguard 12 ml cal mag, bucket placed on stool to even the canopy with other plants. Light intensity raised to 100% for flower

@Stork, Thanks Man! I truly am! I've wanted to grow again for a few years now, so to be here again is got me smiling ear to ear!! I Appreciate You Bro!
@Testefumate, the roots rotted after giving a full veg feeding. And once I realized the issue I cleaned out bucket gave a seedling strength feeding (the last one it was happy with) and added 30ml hydroguard and trimmed all thw root rot off. And she''s coming back I'm trying to update dairies but having issues uploading pictures. But she is recovering now and doing alot better !!!
Nice job with this plant, it will. Recover, no worries

Those are terrible looking "roots". Cant understand how plant managed to make until the end. Have had root rot on my dwc also couple times but nothing if its compaired to this :) better luck next time.
@Juschiln420, no i didnt use organics.
Do you have 100% light proof those dwc systems. How much air you are blowing to dwc? Airpump inside tent? Dwc water temperature?
@Hattiwatti, were you using organic nutrients in dwc? Just curious.. because that was the battle for me. And i know the common advice is organics and dwc don't mix. But I like to do things my way.
So I want to grow 100% Organics in dwc and figure out what works! foop said to add like 20 to 50ml each both a-b thru the veg and wanted more going into flower but anything over like 12ml each at any point would cause roots to rot in a few days.
So to combat it, I would wash out bucket and root just ph water and hydroguard at like 30ml for 48 hrs, which would make roots come back! looking acceptable not fantastic but acceptable then feed again. I agree she wasn't the happiest but I did manage to grow what was said that couldn't be done. So I'm actually pretty happy.
The other 100% Organic in dwc didn't fair well at all. Plant almost died due to root rot(worse then this one by far!) Got her to come back but was a tiny plant and didn't produce crap. So the fact this one grew and produced I'm happy!
But thanks man! I do hope to get better results next time. Switching things up will see if it helps. Like trying recirculation pump again but since it's slightly too big and causing solution to get warm. Thinking about maybe running it on a timer. Like 15 min an hr sitting on its side so it will circulate the solution. Thanks for checking out my grow bro!
@Testefumate, the root rot is from the solution temperature reaching into the 80's Β°F from the recirculation pump being in the bucket. Maybe too big of a pump. I changed from using a air stone in normal dwc at the recommendation of the nutrient company. But just switch back to the air stone which dropped the solution temps back down to 68's Β°F. Those pictures were before switching back to air stone. They are looking better. As for the fertilizer. An organic dwc grow can be done it just take more effort! This is my 1st attempt. There is going to be some hickups along the way.. just a learning curve. Thanks for checking out my grow and chiming in π
