She is growing great (; She got some slightly necrotic (rusty) spots on lower leaves, which indicates Magnesium deficiency i think. Probably because the pH was very stable, and tbh i wasn't expecting that. im used to a bigger change in the pH, which helps different nutrients being able to be absorbed by the plant. But the pH stabilizer integrated in the Hesi Product seems to actually work. Usually everything above 5.2pH and below 6pH was fine if changed into better direction or gets changed after a week. a Better pH would be 5.5 Weirdly i have no red stems at all, what usually appears when you have a magnesium deficiency but, I wouldn't know, what else it is. Because Nutrients should be enough, not too much, not too little, temp is fine, DLI is fine, VPD is fine, just the pH is low for like 3 weeks now because i didn't pick it up directly so in my books it could just be the pH that is making problems OR maybe it's from the CalMag product from Canna i use. I still didn't figured the right amount out so maybe i gave too much, which would mean the plant got too much calcium, which will mean she can't take up magnesium as good. So maybe its that but i wen't really low on it. 1ml in 10L Reservoir doesn't sound like the amount that's sooo much cal you get problems.... Maybe that in combination with the pH? I guess i have to make a partially reservoir change, since i wrote Tryhard in the title. Otherwise im honest i would look what happens to understand it better. Update: So i pulled out about 5L and put in new, fresh tap water, since i don't had water prepared for that, since i just did a reservoir change. So the pH will change in the next 24h anyway, thats why i let the ph on around 6 and will look how it changes. the E.C is now lower on about E.C. 1 . I will decide tomorrow if i will increase it again but need to see how the plant is reacting to that. Thats what i love hydro. Btw if you grow in hydro, sniff your water reguarly. If you use just synthetic fertilizer and your water smells like an aquarium thats not a good sign. It should smell as neutral as possible (keep the smell of your fertilizer in mind). Update day 18 WELL WELL WELL, WELL WELL WELL WELL WELL! It's actually well, because the plant recovered, i adjusted the pH back to 5.5. Adjusted the VPD which was actually fucked in the last 2 weeks because i forgot to turn the 75% rH down so the plant wasn't able to really push water through her, because the stomata are closed. But now just looking at her, i can tell she is "healthy" again, at least close to, so i pumped the DLI up to 40, gave 1ml/10L extra CalMag so she is protected against the stronger LED light. If she gets to week 5 and still in veg, she will be HUUUUUUUGE. im curious how it works, the Hesi fertilizer so far is great, i just ran into problems because it actually held the pH and not really drift ( whats weird, because the expensive product i use didn't work that well) and I just paid like 7 Euro for 1L bottles each. Grow, bloom and PK 13/14 I added about half a ml of pk 13/14 just to be sure that if she is about to flower she will reaaaaaally take off, i only do it now because i expect flowering start next week I also removed 4 fan leaves of the big main stems because light penetration isn't a thing indoors, i slow them down a bit but the rest can catch up in height Will i be able to top the quality of my weed with just 20 Euros worth of fertilizer? Hopefully. 😸

5.2 is a bit low for pH. 5.5 to 6.1 is good range. I let pH fluctuate between that. 5.8 is pretty optimal. What comes to roots those do look a bit sad for 4 weeks old plant. Looks like it doesn't have those micro roots at all.
