Alright, I flushed em and they didnt like it because they're so short that the water kept drowning leaves and definitely got the bottom pistils wet. Should I be worried? What do I do?
Have a lot of pictures for you guys, AKR first because it seems like its not doing good whatsoever. Its got brown dots and yellow spots, to brown/yellow leaf tips, to light greening from the veins spreading outwards and droopy dark clawing leaves.
I flushed with only about 9.5 of 11 gallons between both of them, the water was still dirty coming out but I made alot extra holes thinking it would drain quicker and that just made the soil come out easier. The flush definitely didn't go good, wouldn't say bad, but almost. Took forever, drainage sucks, needs more perlite I think, or the paper towels blocking good drainage.
The HBDs runoff after 4-5 gallons of 6.8-6.9 pHed water was 6.6, so I am right on the money almost. The AKRs runoff was whacky. The fish tank drops said 6.4 but GH drops came out to about 6.0-6.2-ish. Boy I wish I would have gotten atleast a $20 electric pH meter, Im no good or patient with the pH drop indicators.
HBD, looking alright. Small as well, just wider and more pistil production. Doesn't look like that at all in person. The flash makes her look like shes packing a little weight, but shes not. Not yet anyway.
Short Stuff Onyx seems perfectly fine now. Went from a yellowish stem and leaf to purple stem and darker leaves. I think shes 100% okay, and will be better knowing the faucet filter is being purchased tomorrow or Saturday.
What do you think?
