That's something I was wondering about also, RSV. The soil in this grow is very compacted and slow-draining, so the roots could be struggling. Root rot may explain why the problems persist even with good pH and nutes.
 
his is more mature than mine were
maybe she has a strong survival instinct
if not it will be a very short drying cycle after harvest
mine were almost dry as i pulled them
except for the mushy rotten lower stem.
 
Awwww, shit. Damnit. Think they can make it? Do I flush? Do I water em? They both have plenty of drainage holes and even big slits after the transplant to ensure water going in and excess coming out. The HBD feels light, needs a watering, but the AKR feels heavy still. Temps always under 82- usually 78ish. Max this grow was 84 from not turning on the air conditioner soon enough.

They wake up at 4, what the heck do I do?
 
I remember your other thread you had a moldy/musty smell going on, and didn't it take around a week for the soil to dry from the flush? As for treating root rot (if that's what it even is), I've read that adding hydrogen peroxide to the soil can help get oxygen to the roots and disinfect the soil. But hopefully somebody with first hand experience will come along and give you a proven plan of action. I would hold off on watering until then.
 
How many days in between waterings are you at?
Anywhere from 3 to 5 days. After cutting the bottom of the grow bags off and removing the nasty paper towel layer its been around 3 days usually every watering.

Yea it took a while for the soil to dry out, like 6-8 days if I remember correctly. But after changing grow bags, its been draining normally.

You said you lost the whole crop because of root rot? what exactly does it do to the buds? The tops look good, but the leaves are FUCKED. They are really delicate and will break even if I shake the grow bag. Humidity was horrible this morning. Added even more coffe cups and sponges. Im worried. This sucks.
 
yessir it was all lost...the lowest part of the stem got dark and mushy.
even though i could still see a few new green leaflets.
the plants could no longer hold themselves upright and started falling over on top
of each other.
i cut the plants off at soil level,dried everything by hanging upside down for a day then i
ground everything except the largest stem. i have a magic bullet grinder.
then i made some MMJ coconut oil canna capsules.
i never tried to vape or smoke any of it because it just wasn't ripe yet
by making it all into med caps i was able to utilize the whole plant for medicine (preventing a relapse of recurrent cancer)

but,you may not be facing the same issue
time will tell
