April 1, Monday:
* r-DWC:
* ppm: 290-310
* pH: 6.1
* Water temperature: 24°C
* Development was observed.
* There was red-brown foam in the reservoir. I think it's due to beneficial bacteria from temperature or the filter. It's only in the main bucket, not in the others. The roots are completely white and healthy.
* Temperature was lowered, and since the filter was a sponge, it was removed and rinsed with h2o2.
* The foam significantly disappeared.
* r-DWC:
* +1 mL pH-
* pH: 6.1 5.4
* + 0.5 mL pH+ 5.6
* +0.5 mL pH+ 5.9
* +4 drops of pH- 5.8
* LIGHT at 25%
* All plant leaf damages were cleaned with a sterile razor blade; green parts of the leaves are intact.
* r-DWC:
* ppm: 310 (stabilized)
* pH: 6.0
* +0.25 mL pH- 5.8
April 2, Tuesday:
* LIGHT: 50%
* r-DWC:
* ppm: 290-310
* pH: 6.0
* +0.25 mL pH- 5.8
* Magnesium deficiency observed in lower leaves. Reservoir change and fertilizer increase will be provided, and silica will be added.
* Reservoir renewed 50L
* Silicate 14 gr
* Cal-mag 30 mL
* Micro 35 mL
* Grow 50 mL
* Bloom 18 mL
* Fulvic 60 mL
* ppm: 540
* pH: constantly rising (silicate)
April 3, Wednesday:
* r-DWC:
* ppm: 560
* pH: 6.1 (constantly rising, despite lowering it below 6 at least 3 times a day)
* To reduce ppm and prevent pH rise, I'll add 20 liters of plain nutrient solution.
* 20 liters of water (RO):
* 20 mL cal-mag
* 7 mL micro
* 16.5 mL grow
* 4 mL bloom
* ppm: 500-520
* pH: 6
April 4, Thursday:
* The morning temperature reached 25°C, immediate action was taken.
* Pump filter was changed. Observed silica and dead roots in the filter.
* r-DWC:
* ppm: 520
* pH: 5.8
* Total water: 70 liters
* Silicate: 14 gr in 10 liters / 2 gr
* Cal-mag: 50 mL per liter / 0.7 mL per 1.4
* Micro (soft water): 42 mL per liter / 0.6 mL per 1.2
* Grow: 66.5 mL per liter / 0.95 mL per 1.8
* Bloom: 22 mL per liter / 0.3 mL per 0.6
* Fulvic: 60 mL per liter / 0.85 mL per 1.7
* r-DWC:
* ppm: 620 (briefly increased to 530)
* pH: 5.9
* LIGHT: %25
