4/19 After talking to some fellow growers on here (Roberts and Unkraut) and getting some needed advice I realized I was doing a few things wrong. I was mixing nutrients at 1-1-1 and not 3-1-2 npk. Which is why everytime I tried to up the nutrients the plants were unhappy and kept having burnt tips. Like I pointed out last week I'm measuring EC instead of ppm now. And monitoring PH and EC . I'm also mixing nutrients based on EC instead of ppm or just a standard measurement. 4/20 I found root rot in all buckets. I emptied buckets, put just water did a hydrogen peroxide treatment of 1:1 for 5min soak. And I mixed a light nutrient solution of 4ml gro 2ml macro 3ml bloom 10ml hydroguard 2ml Rapid Start To 3.5gal Plants reacted badly to peroxide treatment. I made the light solution to help recovery. 4/21 plants recovered from peroxide treatment. Going on advice I got from a fellow grower on here Roberts I pruned the root rot off and did a root pruning on all just leaving a inch or so of roots in water. 4/22 mixed 0.30ml/L GH Flora Gro(N) as foliar spray and sprayed them down at 5:25pm still in dark until 6pm and turned fans off to help absorb foliar spray. Mixing new solution tomarrow. I keep a grow log here https://1drv.ms/x/s!AmTQ-7u9iyH6kBCjnqwlkbnRSSDi I been dealing with high tent temps. And I target 73°F and tent has been topping at 80°F to 81°F. Bucket temps have been in 74°F to 75°F. I think that contributed to the root rot. 4/23 4x4 mix nutrients a different level Micro 0.5/L ×13.2=6.6ml Gro 1.0/L x13.2=13.2ml Bloom 0.75/L x 13.2=9.9ml Cal mag 1/L x13.2= ml14 Rapid start 1ml/gal.=4ml 14ml hydroguard

What causes foam in a hydrobucket? Read maybe too much air in buckets. Turned down air pump. no change. How to combat? Using OMRI CERTIFIED ORGANIC nutrients just started grow, moving week old seedlings to Hydrobuckets and 24hrs after mixing fresh nutrients got foam in buckets

Contacted Advanced Nutrients about if foam in a bucket is normal from their Nutrients and got this from them "With organics in hydro you may need to change the reservoir more frequently, the foam itself isn't going to harm the plants and is a byproduct of running organics in such a bubbly system with an air stone and such. In general, organics are not as reservoir friendly over time as mineral based nutrients, this is due to the biological activity and lack of preservatives. It is doable however as long as your are prepared for the challenge. Some tips for longevity are inline filters and air bleed valves, etc." Reached out to Hydrobuckets to see what they thought. If they have experience with this and advice. And got this in response from them "Some products will cause the solution to foam a little bit. Hmm. It must be to do with the nutrients. I’m sure it’s fine. You could inquire with Advanced and see what they think. I will sometimes get foam with a Chitosal product but never with base nutrients I run as many bubble as possible so that shouldn’t be the issue Hmm. I’ve always wanted to grow organically in DWC but have never found a product that works."

Are you running a cal mag? You need one. Your nutrition is extremely light. I am curious to what the roots look like? Are they slimy. Does the Reservoir stink bad? What is your ph doing in 24 hours? Going up or down? I do dwc. Hit me up in dm so I don't miss your message.
