DWC Aeration Increase pH?
Echo_Base
started grow question 5y ago
Does more aeration increase the pH more frequently? I'm running 5 airstones in a ten-gallon tote, now the pH is always up 6.5+

It causes evaporation and leaves trace metals behind , so yes could flux your pH. Plants will suck up different nuits causing fluxes as well. Just keep on it, flush often.

Running air bubbles always increases your ec by a little. Just add a liittle ph down when it rises and it will stabilize. Cheers

mulching
I am in the mediterranean clima zone with very hot days in the summer. Is it worth or advisable to cover de soil with some clay balls to prevent water waste and water evaporation? I have noticed that the upper part of the soil has dried out but the roots are still damp.

Water and nutrients
I water every other day. So far I have been using nutrients to bring my water up to the proper EC (ppm). It is always a VERY small amount (1/2 tsp). I haven't noticed any signs of toxicity but I wanted to hear your opinion of my approach and changes that I could/should make

Totally random question.
Random question... When do you start day 1? Is it the day the seed germinates? The day the seed pops above ground? The day the girls have enough leaves for nutes and a regular environment? Just broadening my knowledge. Thanks, guys!

Pocket microscope
Hi. I have a pocket microscope (microbite plus da Carson from Royal Queen Seeds) to see the trichomes, is it reliable to cut a sugar leaf to look at them and determine from there? Or does it really have to be the trichomes that are in the buds to know their true state? Thanks

Harvest or wait?
I'm running a Bruce Banner Auto from FastBuds. Estimated harvest is 10-11 weeks. I'm at 13. I've still got about 20% white pistils and very few amber trichomes. I don't think it's anywhere near too late to harvest, but the fading of the foliage has me nervous. Opinions?

Hermie in the tent
Unfortunately one plant started producing male pollens at the lower side of the plant and I'm not sure how to continue now. I immediately removed problematic spots but I would really appreciate your help on how to proceed. Should I leave affected plant int the tent?

DWC pH dropping quickly during flower
Why is my pH dropping 0.5 every 24 hours? After reservoir change, pH is stable 5.5 - 6 for 4-5 days as I top it off with tap water, but then pH drops quickly end of the week. No EC tester, so I have to change reservoir every week.

When to flush?
Checked trichs under a scope. Lots of clear and cloudy trichs, no amber. How soon should I think about flushing? Using Ebb and Flow. Pics are of my most mature plant. Others are up to 2-3 weeks behind, would really love to harvest all plants together. Week 6 of flower.
