Week 2
Day 8 Another try of stabilizing PH with some diluted water and bringing it down from 7 to 6 at least and extra nutes to raise EC back to ~1. Not a res change, just mixing in.
Day 9 So far so good, she keeps developing.
Day 10 Moved her to the final res with ~15L - PH became more stable. Weirdly the same dose of ph down that was bringing 0.2 points down 24h before - now dropped my ph -1.5 so that I had to add more 7ph water to bring it back from 4.9 to 5.6. Chemistry was never my thing :) Added a ziplock bag with an ice block that I'm changing every 12-24h so that my water stays a couple degrees under 22C.
Day 11 I see more roots developing, they look white and clean, water is transparent, no smell no foam 🙌 She looks beaten up after all my ph experiments😷 Today ph is 6 which is OK and I'm not gonna intervene. EC is still ~1
Day 12 It feels like she's not growing, maybe dealing with some issue, I can't tell what is wrong. The tent is a bit dry T22C RH 50%-55% RES: 6.2ph ~480ppm (~1EC)
Day 13 Ph seems to be stable as well as EC/PPM
Day 14 More roots appeared, she is taking her time, nodes are quiet close... I decided to run the reservoir for at least 10 days if all goes well.
