Grow Mediums Nebula Cheese + Alien RDWC Pro (55l pots)

Im running 2 Blue Labs Guardian monitors, one at each end (as you recommend).
Water temp 20c, water chiller set at 18c (man that thing kicks out some heat!)

Foliar spray?????
Talk to me Dr Groff :)

Cal Mag - Am I using enough or too much? :)
 
Hey True :) It's all looking good and groffs got your back!

I've got no experience hydro, but it may be worth checking the numbers on the back of your cal mag - If it's anything like mine, it could be Nitrogen heavy. (which is a pain in the arse) - I have a very different setup, but use 2ml per 5 litres of water in coco after a couple of weeks

I usually put downward claw (especially if dark green leaves) down to N overdose. It's not fatal and will fix, but i try to avoid it if possible.

Hope this helps a little.
Blue ^_^
 
Hi True. Mate correct me if I'm wrong but I could I sworn I saw this over on 420 the other day? The same true? Anyway any Cheese will do, I myself have just had a lovely batch of blue cheese that had a cakey muffin smell to them, lush.!

Yea Kip I put a shout out on the strain forum.
All I have to do now is not kill my plants :)
 
After reading the House & Garden website I got worried about how I mixed my nutrients.
Pretty much I dumped everything in the brain pot and let it mix. This way could result in some odd PH, EC readings and could lock out some nutrients.
To be on the safe side I dumped it out and refilled with a fresh brew.

No H2O2 this time round. Groth and others say it messes with Root excel and Amino.
No cal mag either, H&G say there Aqua flakes base range does not need extra cal mag adding. For now at least its been dropped.
No multizyme, I just think using root excel and amino is enough for now. Do I really need multizyme?

I use a 10 litre bucket to do my mix then just escalate that up to the number of litres in my system.

10l zero ec filtered water PH 5.2
Aqua flakes A - 4ml (ec 0.3)
(Mix real real good before part B goes in there. On my Alien system I now allow an hour of mixing before part B goes in)
Aqua flakes B - 4ml (ec 0.4)
Root excel 1ml (ec 0.4)
Amino 1ml (ec 0.4)

I changed everything out for this new mix on the weekend.
EC is stable at 0.4 and not changed. Leaf curling downwards has got less.
PH was 5.6/5.7 and after a couple of days just starting to creep up to PH 5.9/6.0.

All the plants that moved from my cloner to the Alien pretty much had a stress fit I now believe.
Only today have they started to really put out some roots again and started to grow upwards.
I was worried it was my nutrient but discounted this and looked more towards stress from moving.
Why? Well I have a few plants left over in my cloner. They are on the exact same nutrient mix as in the Alien and there thriving!
As such it can only be stress thats upset my girls not what Im feeding them.

Thats what I've come to anyways :)
 
Shit true... I'm really sorry man to not have responded to your PM's. Weekends are the worse form me, its when I work the most. And to sort you out I really need to lay down some good text.

I've hardly had time to read your PM's, but I understand time is of the essence.

Before all, drain your system to the best possible, The Pro is a bit hard to fully drain, but an 5 buck manual siphon will do the final job nicely for those final bits. Take get each plant into the bathroom and give the roots a nice luke warm shower,medium/strong pressure. Older dead or flimsy roots will fall of, as well as most slime and gunk. Also, company water has a nice dose of chloride that will further help kill some nasties. Refill the system, but try to keep it cold for now.

Please please learn how to manually white balance your camera so we can see the actual colors of your shots. Turn off your ePapillon and turn on the T5's. At this age they wont care much, and it will bring down the ambient temp. Set your chiller to 14ºC-16ºC, so it works to keep the water as cool as possible. This will (hopefully) dramatically slow down plant/bacteria physiology without harming the actual plants. IF you have extra air pumps, blast more air into each bucket.

This will obviously will stunt them, but will also stun your potential root rot outbreak and give us time for preventive measures. Tomorrow I'll find the time to do you a write up, I really gotta go. But for tomorrow, run down to any agro shop and get the following

-High grade warm casting (humus), no cheap stuff, buy a branded one, and not the liquid kind.
- Agro-bacteria. Any kind. with or without (but preferably) mycos. Any agro shop has them. Its a small powder vil, usually used to boost soil activity, costs around 2 or 3 quid and will last you foreer, something like this

- Blackstrap unsulphured molasses, or legit high grade natural honey (any health food section should have this)
- A bucket
- thermometer
- An oil heater (to keep close to bucket and help the temps up)
- Strongish airpump and stone

Thats your Sunday emergency shop list. Tomorrow morning I'll drop you the rest of the recipe, but feel free to start and add about 20L of water to the bucket and let it bubble to get rid of the chloride. Tomorrow, drop in about 5 cups full of worm wasting, pump always on, and get the heater close to slowly rise the water temp to around 21ºC.

Hopefully, in 3 days time from now you'll get this going. Tomorrow I'll explain the rest.

Keep on monitoring your roots and lets us know how it goes. This sh!t happens to all of us eventually, happened to me my first time on the little alien.

You seen, when you have sterile system, both the bad guys and the good guys compete to overrun the system. So its absolutely natural to have this happen.

We shall create an army of super-troops to get rid of those f*ckers!

groff out - late as sh!t .. here, keep this...:Sharing One:

Oh, and when you're done the system refil, don't add nutes. Let me know ASAP, I'll be monitoring this thread closely.
