Plant 1- I think I have given her a bit too much nitrogen last couple of feedings. Either that or wind. Moved the fan and will know more tomorrow

Technique
Week started off with 600 PPM (early weeks 3:1 Gro to Bloom; this week is transition to 1:1) nutrient water in Plant 1. Started adding 1 liter nutrient mixtures of 800 PPM. PPM keeps dropping, will continually up nutrients until it levels off. PPM seems to have leveled off around 700 PPM. Plant 2, upped nutrients to 500 PPM. Looks good right now. Mid week plant had abrupt change in pH for at most 12 hours. Adjusted pH and later adjusted nutrients. Plants are starting to touch so planning on flipping to flower next Tuesday. Hoping to strengthen interior branches before flipping. I upped the dimmer to 90% of the lights capabilities. Temperature of water has become an issue the last two days. I have been topping off reservoir 2x a day with refrigerated nutrient water. Putting in 2 or 3 liters for Plant 2 a day and 1.5 or 2 liters for 1. Please jump in and share thoughts if I am doing something that doesn't make sense. Thanks to the community for helping me get here and Hey, hey, hey smoke weed every day

I used rainwater with ppm of 15-18 and mixed 8 gallons with 18 ml of GHE Bloom, Gro and Micro with 4 ml of CalMag. Both buckets have new PPM of 350-390. Is that too aggressive for day 9? Or can I push more? New to DWC and growing and hoping for some applied knowledge. Thanks

Привет, бро! 👋😇
Дождевая вода в DWC? Братан, ты уверен, что ты не сильно сэкономил на основе - воде? Ты уверен что она без лишней органической жизни? Потому что это может стать проблемой в DWC. Это почву или даже кокос можно было бы поливать дождевой, но это же DWC, там корни должны быть в стерильной чистоте! Ты эту воду проверял? Она не быстро цветёт?
Я не знаю что тут советовать, брат! Если у тебя индика - до 400ppm на первой неделе.... если сатива - до 350ppm на первой неделе.... Как вырастут 3 пары листьев, можешь сделать до 600ppm и до 500ppm (индика или сатива). PPM с коэффициентом 0,5! Это важно! 😇👆
Удачи, друг! 😇✊

For plant 1 of my DWC, I had 410 PPM two days ago. My resevoir now is at 440. She is slightly yellow and a tad droopy. Is the rising of PPM by 30 an indication of nutrient lock? If its nute lock, does this require peroxide water to flush? How long do people flush? Thx in advance

Hello. you have a very young plant there. They should be a bit bigger before full hydro treatment. Give more plain water then nuts at this point. I water twice then feed then more water. I think you are trying to make it do more than it can. Funny, in about 6 weeks you won't be able to slow it down. Good Luck. Chuck.

My plants are on Day 14 and have started to have some leaves twist and taco a little. I lowered the water level thinking that it was probably because the rockwool was too damp. Does this train of thought sound right? Am I overanalyzing and these look fine or something else? Thx

60% RH is pretty high when you grow in water. Better seeing as you have water under your plant to try to get you RH down around 40% and see if the leaves straighten out. Like using a bubble cloner, you dont need a dome over your girls. Cheers friend

In DWC growing, chillers are really expensive and frozen water bottles you need to replenish kind of frequently. Does anyone currently use any insulation for their 5 gallon buckets? Do you have a rough estimate of how many degrees it cooled your bucket? Doing a temp study. Thanks

Can you use a foliar spray made from organics (fulvic and humid acid, potash, sea kelp, wetting agent) in a DWC? Or is using any organic material more trouble than it's worth? Is week 3 too early for foliar spraying? Hoping to green my thumb a bit. Thanks

The upper part has no relation with the technique below, as far as I researched. So if you wish, and if your climate conditions inside the tent allow it without problems, you may do so! Care with the dosage, it seems to have a great amount of Hum. Acid. on it!

Running an experiment on temperature control on DWC buckets. I am seeing that no temp control in DWC thru 3 weeks has been beneficial. Same strain, environment, training, topping and all. Curious what's going on. Maybe hotter temps for first 3 weeks helps due to evaporation?

@MrBlocc420 The uncontrolled bucket temperatures have ranged from 74-79 depending on time of day so far. It's getting colder here quickly. I imagine that the 79 will be the high temp for the remainder of the grow. Controlled bucket has been between 63-69 the entire time with vast majority of time being between 66-68.

@The8thChevron I should probably clarify a bit. My tent temperatures are the same for both. Only difference in the 2 plants so far has been temperature of the water in my DWC buckets. One I keep at 66-68 and the other is whatever the tent is. Root system is maybe 3x the size.

I don’t know where your temp in buckets are but optimal temps in my room in my medium is anywhere from 65-74 degrees on hot days or heat waves I’ll drop temps to 65 to keep plants comfortable. Up to 80 degrees is fine. Any higher your plants will stop taking up nutrients . I will love to see how high your temps get and how your plants react I am curious

In a mostly indica strain, for a 2x4 tent and a 240W LED. Does it pay off to top 2x? I have 5 nodes of new growth after topping and not sure what my next steps should be. I am training the entire thing but feeling like I should do something additional. Thx for any suggestions
