Hi GWE. Thanks for this site and for taking the time to help with my grow issue!
I am a new grower and am having issues with my 2nd grow. I am growing in DWC and have spots, drying, and dropping of the lower fan leaves; this is spreading upwards. I had this issue with my first grow as well but thought it was due to the chronic root rot that I was fighting. I do not have rot (yet!) for this grow, so now I do not know what is going on. But it seems to be spreading fast so any help would be much appreciated. Details about my setup and pics are included. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
--- waited 24 hrs for GWE account to be approved to post this; took pics of the root ---
The roots look good when I see them with my eyes, but the one pic looks like rot. What do you think?
Setup:
- strain: AK-48 from Nirvana seeds (https://www.nirvanashop.com/marijuan...feminized.html)
- grow type: DWC in 4' x 4' grow tent - 3 buckets, 2 plants
- lights: 1000W LED (currently at 24"), T5
- water: charcoal filtered through Berky filters (https://www.berkeyfilters.com/berkey...ck-berkey.html)
