Things were going good around week 2.. This was before I decided to jack up the nutes to 300ppm! Not sure why I did this but I learned fast. As the next few weeks were bad. I stunted them good with 300ppm nutes to seedlings.
Added a airpump / airstones to the res bucket. I opened it one day and it smelled funky. I thought to myself I need to aerate this res water ASAP. I dumped the res and whole system around this point.
I also noticed I had to clean out lava rock dust from all the buckets. Apparently I didn't wash the rock off good enough at first.
Im pretty sure that 300ppm wont burn cannabis plant. I start my seedlings at 350 to 450 without any burn. Near 450 might get some stunth grow if light feeder strain.
@Hattiwatti, Well in my case. In DWC with RO water, it will. I stupidly put my ppms at 400 and it almost killed all my plants. It took them two weeks to recover. I will never do that again. Less is more. The critical strain ended up hermieing on a branch in the back and spread seeds in my tent. Mostly to itself. But I have found a few fat ripe seeds in my other strains. I also had night temps at 55F for a few weeks and a light leak I didn't know about.
Nice grow matey indeed, hydroponics is king, no doubt. Quick question, you stated that you grew 20 years ago, not many autos back then if any, cant remember myself any on CW when I joined in 2001.
In your opinion, can you taste the ruderalis genetics in the Hulkberry? Asking hence I have grown 3 auto strains now and I find that the taste is negatively influenced by it
