Hi friends. This is my 2 time doing DWC.
:list:I'm running 1 x 135w LED and 8 x 23w CFL 4x65k & 4x27k. Lights on
18%206%20cycle%20copy%202.jpg
Nutes will be Fox Farm when started. Tent 2x2x4. 4in fan/filter with 6in clip on for circulation.
:checkph:I've been keeping the ph 5.8 to 6.0
Today is day 4. That's ruffly 7 days from sprout and 3 days from first sign of single blade leaves.
My concerned is i've not seen any growth since it was put into the DWC from seed starting kit. You can see in the babies in soil compared to the one in DWC. How long should i wait if it keeps showing no growth before i replant. If anymore pics or info needed just let me know and i've included a pic of my previous DWC that was harvest last week. Thanks in advance to everyone :toke::peace:

I think you should b efine, the tap root is proably in search of moisture once it finds a steady source itll pop.:bong:
 
Me mammoth took about 10 days from seed bud!.Was about to ditch her & just spotted the tap root.

Think Seymour recommends ph-5.7 - 5.8 in veg ,then 5.8 - 6.0 in bloom ?.

Good luck mate :smokebuds:
 
hey UF you might want to do some hand watering till the roots hit the water. one reason the bubbleponics DWC system works so well is that it has a pump and tubes to drip water on the RR/RW till the roots hit the water. it gives the plants a great head start. at any rate theyll take off when they hit the water.

TOKE OUT:toke:
 
Thanks everybody. I adjusted the ph and i gave it some ph'd water (5.8) over the rock wool :toke::peace:

It was one kinda like this with the duel out That i picked up on the clearance rack at w-mart the air stone is just a inexpensive one from w-mart. I got the duel to try and run 2 coffee cans but the bubbles were weak. Two lines into one works great for less than 12$ total pump/stone:toke::peace: https://www.google.com/shopping/product/8124658738966201422?hl=en&spell=1&q=fish%20tank%20air%20pump%20dual%20out&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.41642243,d.eWU&biw=1024&bih=624&sa=X&ei=OKMKUdnSJefk2wXH04HIAQ&ved=0CIIBEPMCMAg
