HYDRO Journal. 2nd grow dwcc. GG & GSC

[Toker1]

In nature animals eat roots all the time. I’m sure it will be fine.

 

[George4green]

Had to straighten out the GSC. She wasn’t playing along with the rules well.

 

[George4green]

It’s kinda amusing how fast the get looking at the lights

 

[Toker1]

Yes. Also, a gentle breeze across the plant tops helps strength those stems.

 

[George4green]

Making them do a little old person dance 💃 lol. Yup got 4 fans making all them do a little giggle.

 

[Toker1]

Nice. Are you adding silicone to the mix? That helps with stem strength too. As well as other things.

 

[George4green]

Ya. Actually was going to say that but forgot to type it. To much GSC I guess

 

[George4green]

During my high education a couple of weeks ago read about silica so picked some up from GH and add it to the mix at water change. Took it easy at first on everything because of the issues having. Which did notice a little twist growth tonight again. Next water change will up everything a little

 

[George4green]

I noticed this actually started last week. To all the veteran growers what do I do

 

[Toker1]

If it washes off with water, it’s nutrient stain. If it’s root rot, sterilize the system with food grade h202.

 

[George4green]

I just vary lightly with my fingers wiped the slim off I put I believe 60ml of hydroguard

 

[Toker1]

If it stinks like sulfur, it’s rot. If it doesn’t smell unpleasant then it’s nutrient stain. Nutrient stain is ok for roots, rot isn’t.

 

[George4green]

No smells that I noticed but been kinda sick. I’m thanking it’s this one nute I added last time and all of the slimy mater didn’t all drain out forgot what the nute was believe it has some seaweed of kelp in it. Believe it did this kinda same thing first go so just not using it anymore

 

[Toker1]

If it’s just nutes, don’t worry about it.

 

[George4green]

I thank I’m having a bug issue or something

 

[Toker1]

Doesn’t look like it to me. Why do you think so?
Big infestations usually put more smaller spots on the leaves.

 

[George4green]

The blisters type look this plant it self look the worst of the others and also has not grown in awhile (around 4 days or more) I can’t find anything else it could really be. Roots look good temps good RH not exactly consistent but in ok ranges lights at 36”. I sprayed aza max I believe it’s called we’ll see I guess I just going off the GWE.com but the leafs don’t look right to me

 

[Toker1]

Yeah. I see that. It looks more like light burn or a deficiency rather than bugs.

 

[George4green]

Ya I have no clue. I’m following GH nute guide at half strength ppm at about 650 using the .5 scale on my pen. Just going to roll with it I guess. I’m not getting the heavy wax look along with the blistering like in the GWE of broad mites

 

[Toker1]

In my experience DWC has significantly less exposure to bugs. They like to live in things like soil and coco. The larva can not live with out a medium that is moist with undisolved air to breath.
