I learned alot about my first DWC grow this week. I have been fight what I thought was a calcium defeniency on the amnesia auto. This week is showed up in abundance on the Jack Herer plants. I was scratching my head as I've been adding 2-3 times the recommended dose of cal mag and still running into trouble. After a false scare with the root rot last week I rinsed off the roots of the amnesia auto and small Jack plant. They had smaller roots balls but the two big jacks massive roots balls had grown around the airstones and I couldn't remove them to rinse. I had a eurecha moment and I clued in that it was neut lockout from salt build up probably from never flushing the plants and unneceesary high levels of ppms and calmag. As an experienced soil grower have never experienced lockout so it didn't cross my mind. Overall the buds are developing and I am still confident I will have a great harvest. Looking forward to my next DWC grow and seeing what more I can do with my newly attained knowledge. Until next week keep up the good work blades!

When growing different strains in a RDWC system how do you balance plants with different nutrient needs. My amnesia auto ran into a major cal-mag issue and now is experiencing nitrogen toxicity, while my feminized Jack Herer's are largely unaffected. Thanks for the advice.

Thats the thing with a DWC , RDWC , Hydro tables any of that sorta of nature when growing more then one strain , it's really hard to balance the plants needs because various plants require various things . The advice I can offer is to boost the CalMg anyways so that your plant gets what she needs but keep an eye out on your other plants . Do this over time so you don't run into anymore problems such as nutrient lock outs because of the salt that would build up on the roots . Slowly but surely you will over come this problem . Just know for next time that sometimes its a bit harder to grow more then one strain at a time in those kinds of systems . Other then that your grow seems to be well on track and you're well on your way to getting some nice medicine ! I hope the information I've provided you helps you understand what sorts of problems you will run into in a multi strain RDWC grow and how to correct the problem over time . Happy Growing!!

hy man do you use RO Water or tap water ? so your ph is running up ok but do the ec level rise or drop too? did you let the clay pebbles soak in ph´ed (ph 5.8) water for some time..if this is not the case maybe this is the problem..clay pebbles have an ph round about 7.0 and it takes some time to change their ph 😎 let´see if we can find the problem..but to be honest your girls dont look bad at all ..they look pretty good so keep on doin what u are doin bro .....and we will see😎

@Wachsemilian, I use RO water about 6.5 out of the R.O system. I soaked the clay pebbles but being my first time, I admit I didnt do a thorough job. I have seen great growth this week. P.H is now stable around 5.9. thanks for checking in!

Grows coming on good bro.. couple of questions for ya, if your cool with it!! I’ve recently built my own diy RDWC system and can’t wait to start growing.. it’s basically the same as yours, 4 20 litre buckets with a 40 litre reservoir which I’m going to to place outside my growtent.. I’m going to use 600w hid lighting.. Can you tell me how you change your nutes please? And how often do you change them? And are you using a chiller? Cheers dude and keep up the good work.. looks awesome

@Kirby, Great questions. I have been empying the water by scouping it out thru the res and dumping it into a pail. I do my best to tilt bucket 4, than 3, than 2, than 1 to try to get all the water into the res. It's a job during flowering. I recently bought a submersible pump that I'll be using in the future for changes, it will save alot of time. Shop vac gets water everywhere,lol. I change neuts every 7 days, roots look great so far. I am running a 400w HPS w. Superlumen and a 108w Led and my water temps are typically around 63-65 without a chiller. I am also running a 6" exhaust/scrubber which keeps air moving and temps down. I am using a well ventilated closet not a tent. A few things I've observed is stick to one strain, different strains have different needs and are challenging in a recirculating system. If you're using a top feed/recirc system clean your fittings regularly and keep all the water out of the light. I tried a scrog net but it didn't allow me to see the roots. I ran into a fairly serious cal-mag lockout/defiency and have subsequently had to remove the net so I could flush the the plants. With this setup I wouldn't use a net again. Let me know if you have any other questions I'll do my best to help. Cheers, Growdaddy

Either use individual dwc buckets for each plant or foliar feed the ones that show deficiencies.

Maybe because it's a auto strain you ran into that problem....?A auto is technically in bloom mode all the time right? ..... or something like that
