Greetings! Apologies for the late entry; had a pretty busy weekend, to the point where I neglected Early Vixen entirely, and came back to a sad, deflated, LIMP seedling laying on it's side! I noticed that the Rapid Rooter was completely dried out, so I immediately drenched it with water and checked the water level in the bucket, and then it hit me... this is entirely my fault. Prior to the weekend, the Rooter was drenched in water for a couple of days straight, so I turned down the air pump and scooped out 3 cups of water. Turns out I scooped out one too many cups and the reduced air was not bubbling enough water up onto the HEC medium. After making the necessary adjustments, it took about a day but she was back to normal. Looking forward to getting RapidStart in the mix this weekend. OH! My HydroLogic Smallboy finally came in!!! It's going to be a good weekend :) **EDIT: Forgot to mention that I'm using an old LED Mars Grow Light + (1) T5 Fluorescent. Looking to upgrade to a stronger LED (1000W+) plus an additional T5 or 3 :) Word of advice to the n00bs out there: Don't second guess yourself and be patient!

@Calveeno, There was a large amount of root growth between week 2 and 3. That's always a good sign 😎

Calveenocommented6 years ago
@HighTV, you said it, Bud! Such is Life. And by the looks of it, I'm hoping that's the case. Initial thoughts were, "Damn. This is waay too much stress early on. Hoping it doesn't go herm on me.." Guess we'll have to wait and see 😄

I love that moment the root breaks through the bottom of the net pot. Best feeling in hydro 😋

@bobtheblob, She stretched a hell of a lot more in flower than I was expecting. Thank you! I'm a proud parent to say the least 😁 She smells very sweet now!

Thanks for the link! I wonder if I had similar bacterial stuff or just screwed the solution/conditions when I had roots dying and turning brown. Cool little weights you have btw! :-)

@bobtheblob, You're welcome! It's pretty common in DWC environments, and from what I've read, it has to do with light leaks, res temps being too high (+72F), and insufficient Dissolved Oxygen. Call me crazy, but I've also wondered about my nutes being contaminated, and poor water source. Thanks! They're called Calibration Weights, for my digital scale, and I picked em up from Amazon as a lightning deal :) https://www.amazon.ca/17Pcs-10mg-100g-Precision-Calibration-Weight/dp/B07GGZSKQ7/ref=lp_11853168011_1_2_sspa?s=industrial&ie=UTF8&qid=1550372950&sr=1-2-spons&psc=1
