Wayyy too much salt.
The nutrients tend to build up in the net cups so 3 out of 4 got burnt pretty badly.
Good news is, all 4 have roots now, the 3 burnt plants are recovering well and one plant is off to a flying start.
I have diluted the mix down substantially and am rinsing the rocks down daily. As the roots come out I shouldn't have to do this anymore.
I did a little root pruning to the plant that is ahead, aswell as removed its lower flowers.
Plants seem to be coming out of flower slowly.
Fog is fun.
@Cannabot,
Your guess is as good as mine😂 I am very new at this, second grow ever. I am looking to experiment and change things up for the sake of science and keeping it fresh. I tend to hurt my plants alot and had my first plant "herm" These clone are not from that plant.
Thanks for stopping in, excited to go through your content🤗
Never saw a setup that takes advantage from root pruning!! Great!! There's a day for that on moon calendar, take a search!
Also, I do believe that your leaves are being burned by the light!
@Psilocubensis,
All about trying things, for me. Thanks for the concern about the lights👍but believe me they are really weak. The small plants are getting 100-200ppfd and the tall plant is getting 350ppfd at the top.
Hey buddy, I've noticed pretty much anything organic will gunk up pumps and sprayers. In recirculating systems this seems doubly true.
I'm pretty sure humics and fulvics are usually organically sourced.
Roots are looking great 👍 Not sure what kind of lights those are, but it's possible those are why the leaves on the back plants are a little funky. The 2 in front are looking good😎
IMO trying new stuff is the most fun part of growing. Good luck, and have fun experimenting!
@Animatey,
I think the mutated leaves are the plants trying to flower and veg, but I could be wrong. 3 of the clones were flowering when I took them, and the small good looking plant was not. I am happy to see the big plant started to put on some normal leaves, so I do think that has something to do with it. As for the humics, yeah gunk city, massive molecules and dirty looking roots. I'll try again in soil one day. But as for the lights, small plants are getting about 7500 lux and the tall one about 9k, I hope that's not enough to cause issues.🤷♂️ I've been taught well, I dont think they're burning😏
