stutch Seeds went into water on 16.07, then into the Root Riot on 18.07. Everything so far has been with osmosis water, this time I'm using Peter's Combi Sol with calcium nitrate and Epsom salt + hydrogen peroxide as fertilizer.

stutch Root Riots ftw, the plant is growing and looks healthy. Mixing nutrients is relatively easy, thanks to dry fertilizers. Water comes out at 5.6-5.8 right after mixing without pH correction and slowly rises to 6.0. I should have bought the reverse osmosis system much earlier, thanks @ggb420. Best person!

stutch The second week is going relatively uneventfully. The osmosis water has caused very few problems so far, and the pH level is very stable. The large leaves are slightly curled, probably a bit too much heat for the plant. The light distance has been slightly increased, and it should get better again now :) VPD 0.9-1.1

stutch Even though the plant looks great, I had some concerns this week. Input EC according to my meter was about 2.4, but the drain EC was around 3.3-3.4. Since input should equal output +/- 0.3, I flushed with Terra Aquatica FlashClean for a day to wash out some salts from the substrate. After that, everything was fine, and I filled the Autopot reservoir on 06.08. I let the tray fill up once as a test and then shut off the inflow, let's see how long it takes for the plant to suck it dry.

stutch After having slightly elevated EC levels in the water last week, everything was back to normal after 24 hours and a bit of FlashClean. I then installed the Autopot system and mixed up 10 liters of nutrient solution. About 2-3 liters are left, the plant is developing great, and I'm satisfied.
