Oh, just want to say that I use Hydroguard as well. Definitely a must if you do hydro. [emoji6] [emoji121]

@HotBunz I'm seconding what Dwiz07 asked about the hydroguard? I'd like to know myself.. I just ordered some.. how much are you adding to your res to keep that nasty root rot away?

It says on the back of the bottle, I think it's 1 ml per gallon.

@HotBunz I was a little worried about my headroom also. I can lst, but I do have everything to build a nice scrog if I need to. I can also angle both of the lights for a few more inches of headroom.
Did you start the hydroguard at the 2ml/gal or work up to it?
I'll do that and keep it simple!

No big changes on the little girl. Adjusted ph. Just waiting on her roots to make it out of the net pot and down to the water! Edit- water level is 1 1/2" below net pot. Is my water level ok, Or should I raise it up?

I have used Hydroguard on all of my DWC grows. Granted my current grow is only my 5th in DWC. Early at the start I used what ever the bottle said. Later in the grow I will just give a splash nearly every time I top off the bucket, which is every day as my plant sucks up about 1 gallon a day.

A little update for y'all!
The roots made it to the water and she's starting to grow =)

Ph has been steady the past few days at 5.8.
Ppm went up to 150.
Tent temp 73-75. Res temp 70-75
For now I just have 1 led on. I'll power on both of them a little later, and it's sitting 32" above her. I will drop it down a bit soon.

I have 2 extra air stones and my pump is a 4 outlet, so I'm thinking about uncapping the 2 extra outlets and dropping those stones in there for more air. What do you y'all think?

The more air, the merrier! I'd definitely do that. [emoji106] [emoji6]

Be sure to watch your PPM level....they are going up on you....that's the wrong way on their own. Roots look great.

The water level was about a half inch below my mark so I topped it off with my ro water and adjusted ph to 5.5. Ppm went down to my starting 120.
