Nilkoz_ 🌱 Week 1 – DWC (first time in hydro, learning as I go 🔧💧)
Quick update for Week 1!
This is my first time trying DWC, so I’m still learning, adjusting, observing… but honestly, it’s starting off really well 🔥
The cutting adapted pretty nicely to the setup.
Roots are still small but white and healthy, no signs of stress at all.
pH is drifting up a bit, but that’s normal in the beginning. EC is stable and the water stays nice and cool.
I’m running a light nutrient mix (around 480–500 ppm).
I prefer to start easy to avoid burning the plant right at the start.
Air pump is solid, good oxygenation, bubbles are strong 👌
For now my goals are:
• keep pH stable
• let the roots grow down
• keep the water clean
• learn how the plant reacts in DWC
First time doing deep water culture, so I’m testing, tweaking, and learning step by step.
But honestly… I’m loving it already 😁💧✨
Let’s see how things evolve next week! 🌱💚
