Hello everyone! After a few unsuccessful attempts at hydroponics, I am facing challenges once again. However, this time I believe I will succeed. I want to thank everyone who is willing to inform me and help me learn. I appreciate your support and look forward to your assistance.
March 10th, Monday (Germination)
* Seeds were placed in water.
* Only one of them sprouted on the night of March 10th.
March 11th, Tuesday
* Transferred the other seeds to root riot and placed them in a warm area.
March 12th, Wednesday
* Filled the container with reverse osmosis water to wait until tomorrow afternoon to ensure there is no chlorine.
* r-DWC:
* Filled with 40 liters of water and 45ml of H2O2, running. If there is chlorine and fungi, they will be gone by the evening.
March 13th, Thursday
* Rinsed the clay stones again, pH adjusted to 6.0, and checked, pH remained stable. Will rinse again with 0 ppm and pH 6.0 water.
* r-DWC:
* Transferred the seeds.
* Made a dome to prevent light from the sides of the clay stones and covered them.
* Added 10 liters of water, totaling 50 liters.
* Water level is 5cm below the net pot.
* Added 10 ml of pro roots to the reservoir.
* Two Blue Dream plants were dry at night, watered them with reservoir water.
March 14th, Thursday
* Fed them with spray after the lights went out.
March 15th, Friday
* r-DWC:
* Top-fed with reservoir water.
* Leaves of the 1st and 2nd plants are starting to turn light in the middle. If it continues, will transplant to soil.
* Added 5 liters of water with pro roots, totaling 55 liters in the reservoir (5 liters = 1ml pro roots, ppm 30, pH 5.7).
March 16th, Saturday
* ALL:
* Fed with spray before the lights turned on.
* r-DWC:
* Top-fed, avoiding wetting the root riots.
* Plants #1 and #2 have sagging leaves and light-colored middles.
* Plant #2 was replaced with the one tested with voodoo juice, and the hydro one was put on a paper towel and squeezed the root riots by hand.
* Added 15 liters of water, totaling 70 liters.
* Added voodoo juice and sensizym.
* First fertilization given at 1/4 dose (70 Lt / 5ml) base nut + cal-mag.
* PPM 110, pH 5.9
* Removed the top clay stones of plant #1 and placed a paper towel for the root riot to dry.
* Water level is 3cm below the net pot.
March 17th, Sunday (1st week)
* Swapped my pro root experiment with plant #1, wrapped it in paper towels, and left the roots in the dark. Will check in the morning to see if the issue was from top feeding.
* Dried leaves of plant #1 and moved it to the dark reservoir.
* In the afternoon:
* Started to plant the dried leaves of plant #1 and #2 from yesterday. No issues with plant #2; it continues to grow. Plant #1 needs to progress a bit more; it's lagging behind.
