Hi mate , As asked for on my diary , I have a few question and tips for you ... 1. As @bigdaddyk asked , do you have an air stone ? If not , invest buddy cheap but essential when growing DWC as as the roots need oxygenated water or you'll get root rot etc. If so , CRANK IT UP 2. Is the water from the res touching the rock wool within the pot ? If so , you could drown the plant.. I try to keep the water just under the net pot and top feed until the roots reach the res , let gravity do its thing ... I have a feeling due to the leaves drooping that over watering may be the case here. 3. What ppm is your water at this stage ? ........ From what I've read from your diary , here are a few tips and what I do in my DWC. .. room temps : Day 26.6 C Night 20/22 C Humidity : Seedling/Clone 60/70% (some growers even go as high as 90 in this stage) Veg week 2+ - 60% Flower 53 % Light distance : At least 60cm from plant Res temps - 18/21 C I can't give you a ppm indication tbh as you need to get that from reading your plant but at this stage if start off around 150 ppm just to give you plant some life and see how it reacts. I'm fairly new to DWC however now new to growing and nd done some homework before diving right in haha , some right good growers on here with tonnes of information , follow up some of these dudes : @bigdaddyk @Zannabis7 @tryhard @hawkbo @biggreens420 and the rest haha... If there is anything else I can assist of , hit me up mate !!

Thanks for the update. She's looking a bit stunted but if you have your pH dialed in, perhaps she will recover. The air circulation is something to try to rectify. Best wishes...

@Zannabis7,thanks man yeah the leaves have grown a lot but height wise not, heat is a real issue as it’s super hot outside, there is growth but worried I’m used to my leaves standing up going for the light, where she seems lightly drooped

Hi , it can take up to three weeks to get root into reservoir , that's when the explosive growth will start , how far away is the led ? Also feed from the top until the root gets into the reservoir every two days 👍 Happy growing 🌱

@BigDaddyK, Hi, thanks so much for the comments, sorry about the late reply, yes i have a airstone, i have 2 of them connected to 2 seperate pumps, i definetly overwatered, ihad a top a top feeder but i think it was a little strong, i actually pulled the alien and started in rockwool with a og kush, its a week in and the roots are out the bottom of the pot, i definetly stunted the last 2 but i didnt have the heart to pull both, so just restarted the one, i also got myself a Blue lab PH meter, so that is finally dialed in, my big question is, why are my plants so small, ive looked at other diaries and the leaves and height are way bigger, although my roots are going wild, noticable daily growth, white and healthy, thanks again, any adivice appreciated

Lenson123commented7 years ago

@Hawkbo,thanks for the responce, i have a Blue lab ph pen but i just got it about a week and half ago, ive really oticed a difference and was shocked to see my PH was completly out before.

Hawkbocommentedweek 17 years ago

I had a lot of seedlings looking droopy and curled up like in ur first pic my first grow and it was high ph. Seedlings like there medium more acidic so optimal would be at like 5.5-5.7. Im in coco but its the same i believe

@Hawkbo,Thanks yeah PH sitting at 5.5, occasionaly drifts up to 5.7 but all under control with daily checks, roots look healthy but incredibley slow up top growth.
