New Grower 1st hydro grow

[Iriee Vibez]

Why the change from yesterday, JT? The plant doesn’t look worse. Keep the water level an inch r so from cup, and keep top of rockwool moist in the meantime. This is a good learning experience,

Well, I can’t blame you, but make sure you have a plan of what to do differently.

day 17
ph was 6.0 now 5.75
ec was flashing between 0.8-0.7 now solid 0.7
i don't know if turning the light down or resetting the water level or turning off the clip fan workes but she looks better
some lower leaves have brown and some are lighter but looks healthier if you guys see an deficiency or other issues let me know

The plant looks like she wants to survive. She is a fighter. At this point, I would try to encourage root growth to get them in the water. This step is taking way too long, and is th email cause of the issues, imo. I would make sure the hydroton level is nice and moist at all times, This is why I suggest getting the water level to about an inch under the cup. I am not sure if you did this yet, but you should consider it.

i took the level up to the bottom of the netcup and then dropped it about .5 inch. the netcup i have has that middle channel so the rockwool cub is already about 1inch up from the bottom. u can see i have multiple roots in the water........just barely its gonna flower at like 6inches tall lol

Lol! If she gives only one joint, it will be the best joint you have smoked! Seriously, you just have to hope for an extended veg to let it catch up. I have seen that happen a lot!
