Hydroponic RDWC growing problem
Mismeystarted grow question 5 months ago
Hi ,im using RDWC ,with 10 part GH nutrients , water always at 5.87 pH . Last flowering i used EC at 2.0 level and it was fine , ph stayed at normal level , but now in this flowering it goes down ( this means ec is too high right?) and works well with 1.2 EC, what's the problem?

EC (ions dissolved in water) is related slightly to pH (proton-donators and proton-acceptors dissilved into water) but is not pH. you could have a very high EC and be very basic or acidic. A good soilless/hydro fertilizer should be ph-buffered and resistant to pH drift.
The concentration of your fertilizer could be related to VPD. IF the VPD is higher this cycle, that could be why the plant needs a lower concentration. Also, could be genetics related.
The key is it is working well? Growth is similar and healthy? then, you are fine.
Try using jacks 321 hydro setup. I bet you don't have pH-drift with that product.

Harvest or leave in the sun for a while?My plant got way too little light inside when i tried a 12/12 light rhythm. now it looks like the trichromes are getting milky already even though the buds are tiny. Should I harvest to avoid losing thc or leave them outside in the sun for a while still so they might grow ?

Any input? Small nuggzzzzMoby dick Auto has been slow but steady on the bud growth, way slower than other genetics and this is the only plant from this strain so no comparison. I find the buds quite small, Super frosty, dense and beautiful smell but harvest is getting closer and nuggz aren't fattening up

What to do? → BF Runtz Auto - Day 42 - RH70, 80F in BioBizz Light SoilOn my last post, I was advised I have N tox, so I watered w/o BioGrow, just BioBloom and it's gotten much worse. The runoff EC was 1.5 (watered with 0.8, runoff pH was okay), so I’m guessing it's salt buildup. I plan to flush when this watering dries out—any thoughts?

Tiny holes!?This morning while looking I noticed tiny little holes on some of the leaves on one of my plants. I didn't see any pests with my eye, and I tried to use my phone the best I could but couldn't see any. I've also heard this could be environmental/viral. Any thoughts or ideas?

Fast flowering strain takes long to start flowering.Why is the honey cream which is the plant that was noted as the fastest flowering plant of the three strains I have, the one that's the furthest behind in the flowering stage
She does receive a bit less light than the other two strains

Spotted LeavesMy ladies looked good until recently, it has been very warm the last few days. Then they began to let their leaves hang down (didn't get enough water) and gradually turned yellow, now they are getting spots. This is my first grow and I am not sure what it could be.

Brown/white spotHi everyone. The plant is a photo on her 7th week of veg. I give solid ferti and diluted compost tea water then appeared white spot on old leaves and the new leaves have tips burnt.

New growth looking strange and growth slowed down (wilting?)The new growth of my plants are looking a bit strange, and growth seems to be slowed down.
Could this be that the light is too strong? Or can this happen if the humidity is too low?
I already installed an humidifier but looks like its not helping.
Whats going on?

Identify Issue: Brown Spots, Lower leaves first, from outer-tipsShowing up on 2 out of the 5 in my soil bed. Front 2. Transplanted 10 days ago, went well enough.
Watering with tap water, never tested but didn't have an issue last run. Same soil, but I did add 8 cu ft of new soil to the top. Gently amended with b6, Kashiblend, coconut powder.
