Another problem solved. I love this forum.

....... I'd start bloom nutes too, bud set looks a bit leafy so far...

Thanks. I don't think she is going to make it as she is struggling bad.

Beginning to think I may have pythium. Researching now but this plant needs help.

So, the saga continues though I’m not really sure it’s a saga; or a problem; given that BBA1, despite looking like crap, put on another inch over the past 12 hrs or so. That’s a total of 8 inches growth in last 7 days despite whatever is going on with her.

First some updated pics. The burple was last evening the remainder, this morning

This was one week ago

After the flush and a bit of a dry out period, I added Hydroguard to the res at 2ml/gallon and backed my bloom nutes off from 915 to 700. Seems like little change but I suspect some root rot is the reason she was so heavy and water logged. Not sure though.

My friend thinks I just need to dry it out to the point of near death before I re-introduce water to it gently and without nutes for a while. This may be what I need to do but I am hesitant. It remains off the reservoir for another day and then...you tell me lol

Struggling- .... hardly! ....that looks better for bud setting already,... coco breaths far better than peat and soil, so I don't think you're in a root rot situation,.. leaves would be drooping more, and growth halted,... stay on the nutes, PK especially,...:smoking:

Thanks @Waira

Folks, I am pretty pleased this morning! BBA1 looks better this morning than she has in 2 weeks. She was not drooping this morning like she had been each morning and, I think she is a tad greener on the tops. Better looking nonetheless.

Last evening, I took BBA1 out of the tent. Placed the pot in a 5 gal pail and took a gallon of her nute mix from the res and mixed in a prescribed amount (.36g) of Great White powder. This will supplement the hydroguard with beneficial bacteria for the roots. I slowly poured the entire gallon through the pot and let it sit draining for a few hours. Then I put it back in the tent and this morning she looks 50-75% better than yesterday. Thanks very much.
