Ok start of week 5, as stated in the video I finally got on top of the ph drop. After some research I found that dwc systems can have 2 problems that can create this problem. One is the air it pulls in is to rich in co2 and basically creates acidic resovour but since I have been changing the system weekly I didn’t feel this was my problem. The other reason could be too low ec for the plants. Basically every plant has a natural ec lvl and if the nutrients are below that of the plant it can create an inbalance that leads to ph drop. I upped my nutrients from 1200 to 1400 and since I done that my ph has stayed stable at 5.8. Also had signs of slight light burn so lifted the light. So on we go learning this system day by day. Will say I have seen some great explosive growth since it’s all been stabilised.

I have found what Might be calcium deficiency on one leaf near the top of one of my bush’s. but the rest of the bush looks super happy. Could it be light burn?? I feed them cal/mag so I m struggling to believe it could be calcium deficiency.

will not disappear ^^ to make it a bit more clear.. the damaged leaves will stay like that. Increase the dosage, and check the new growth.. I would agree, it looks like Calcium deficiency, your plants otherwise look very healthy, nice job

I first had a Wilma 4 pot and then got a DWC Rapid recirculate. I also have Urban Culture Bubble Buckets.. but ive not connected them as recirculate. I found that the difference was how long to regulate PH and EC. It takes a bit of time to go round the system. Be patient. Wilmas are quick.. drop some EC in and mix.. but recirculate takes time. Once you got the hang of it.. then all is quite straightforward. With DWC the veg stage is rapid fast explosive. Ih and another thing... make sure your bucket is near to top so side roots get into water soonest. Hope that all helps. Best πŸ€

@Puffer_Bill, thx for info bro. I m holding this is a move up. I went with auto mainly to allow me more focus on the setup I will keep an eye on the ph and ec. Once again thx

I still use my Wilma doing a Fat Banana and Pineapple Kush grow with them. 2 x 4 Wilmas.

@RastaMouse, Yes the pebbles aren't much fun... and make a right racket washing when you really wanting to be a bit less noisy. πŸ€£πŸ˜‚.

@Puffer_Bill, loved the Wilma just found resovour was too small and a pain to clean and all the clay pebbles a pain too. I m sure this system will have its problems I just herd these are easyer to improve on we’re the Wilma is kind of static.

@Greenbean15, had good results with fast buds in the past. My hope is to dial in the system on some genetics I trust to be solid.

all in all not a bad result, sometimes you have to ride it out ... how do you find the ts1000?
RastaMouse
RastaMousecommented4 years ago
@Hemporio_Afghani, tbh for me it was not enough power for the size room it was in. i have the MarsHydro Reflector 144 720w LED Grow Light in my other room and its a very good budget light but its pink light. if he looking for white light i would say the ts2000. but its all about the size of the space he has. i have a 100x100x200 gq tent that has the attis in and the mars 144 in the other thats 100x80x200 cupboard.

@RastaMouse, hahahahaha πŸ˜‚ cant argue the Attis 300 sure does a nice job 😎 what's the bad points of the Mars TS 1000 ? a friend is starting on a small budget was going to recommend it over hps based on its specs for the price, can it hit G/Watt ?

@Hemporio_Afghani, shit. Replaced it with the lummitek Attis 300 and it owns lol 😝
