Ggg2 Dwc oxypot led grow needs help!!!

[Mr Green Fingers]

Hi guys another update, changed the water out, have added 500ppm of Nutes with the ro water and keeping the p.h between a steady 6.0-6.2 (though I am getting p.h. drop which I believe might be down to the an Nutes as p.h. perfect) ec is around 1.0, no signs of improvement but hopefully next few days will tell.

I think she looks fine bro, if anything a little underfed, the affected leaves won't get better so I personally would take those off, from the pics new growth looks ok to me but @MedGrower is the man to listen to as he basically walked me through my first grow lol

I dont know how i overlooked this but 500ppm seems a bit high for a plant of that size. My tap and feed is 400 for mine in dwc and its a bit bigger than yours.

Here she is with about 300ppm nutes and tap running right at 440ppm

That plant was in soil for almost a month before i transplanted to dwc

Heres my soil monster running 600ppm

Good point @STILLSMOKIN and a point to be paid special attention into. Strength of the solution is somewhat relative to the conditions your plant is in. I'd advice people to set their ppm / ec just how the plant is reacting to it (you know the drill --> if the EC rises, lower the feed, if it falls, add more nutes). Many times I have 500 ppm at that stage myself with no problems (latest example here), but I rarely ever go over 600 ppm in my grows. With Telos 0008 the peak demand does seem to rise to 700 ppm but for just for few weeks. Just remember that you cannot force feed your plants. Most you do with feeding strong solutions is to ruin the osmotic flow and in the most extreme case, reverse it, resulting in a death of the plant.

I am seeing the plant leaves here being a bit on the pale side so that tells me that very likely there is no overfeeding.

Yes @STILLSMOKIN it is a good point but in the earlier stages before I came on to the forum I was feeding it 400ppm of Nutes and after a couple of days sucked it clean from the pot so I upped it and when the plant started developing the problem I came on here when I couldn't come up with any idea as too why it was stunting and showing problems. I have followed @MedGrower advice since then and am using ro water now at about 500 which a portion of that is cal mag as to supplement the tap contents. I do understand you can't force feed the plants to much as they react badly to it as anything would be given to much of something. I was only giving a brief update only a day later and I'm not expecting next day results i only said no improvement yet as a comment not a criticism as im an optimist i see it as its not getting worse, and time will tell. She does seem alot happier today.

This is her in the sun today

Hey guys another update for you, she's sitting steady at 500ppm and sitting nicely at 6.0. I took the affected leaves off and she has shown a little bit of growth as well. Thanks for the help all you guys have given me.

Looks burnt and mg deficient but im far from a pro at dwc. My honest opinion bud is cut back to 300ppm and add a cal mag boost at full strength. Mine has doubled in size and is thriving at 5.8 and 500ppm. I am still running same solution for over two weeks. Only add a ph buffer once to bring back down from 6.5. I will get a pic soon
