New Grower leaves dont yellow

[oldcoot]

Thanks for the info guys.
At least im not alone.
My well water is very soft and ph varies from 5.5 to 6.5 depending on how much rain i get.
I also let my water sit out overnight but i also aerate it all night.
I found if i put my water straight into my tub, the next morning my ph jumps up from 5 to 7 or more overnight.
If i aerate overnight, my ph stays within .5 or less.
This confused the hell of me in my first grow.
Dont know why but this solved all my ph issues after a drain and replenish The next morning.
Wondering if pottasium is in my water . I think thats the element that keeps leaves green, that or nitrogen.
Hmmm.
Oh and im running a dwc not soil With leds and flouressiants on the sides.

Thanks for this post, I got a little outdoor grow going, and I was wondering the same thing. At the 7 week mark mine haven't even begun to yellow. Lots of good info here, I'll be sure to check the pistols, and look at them under my jewelers loop.

I was about to ask your soil then saw the DWC. Anyway, using Canna coco no yellowing but with Bionova coco they did. Same coco AB nutes and strains on both.

Well thanks again guys,choping tomorrow morning on my green leaved sour diesel. She's around 75 days now.
I'll post a couple pics tomorrow night in my sour diesel post.
This is my forth grow and all still had green leaves, im beginning to wonder if you have to go with full amber before she'll turn yellow and i dont want full amber.
I can tell you this, i have no problem with any of my grows as far as quality goes, quanity is improving as i get better. ha ha
thanks again guys.

Hey Coot, I too run dwc and neither my autos nor my photos turned yellow. My autos needed to be put on a 12/12 light schedule as well. I also am running led and compact fluorescent lights. I use cal/mag throughout my grow so I figured it had something to do with that.

 

[oldcoot]

Thought about that too. Yep my plants live on cal mag.
Used gh cal mag but never worked good at all, switched to botanicare and my plants took off but thats another story.ha
But that could be too, hmmm
More to think about....
Guess it really dosent matter as long as its good but has me scratching head, no wonder im bald. Ha this from an old long hair hippie!!!
