Thanks a bunch mate. I can rest easy tonight hahaha. Drained half the res and toped back off and got down to 550 with tap water at 200 hopefully I haven’t given them a hard start to life. They are getting really light yellow/green. Anyways I guess time will tell. Do you have any journals I can sink my teeth into ES?

I've got 1 or 2 in my signiture mate. Click my name then sig and they should pop up. That feed strength should be OK for them. Ideally a bit lower but they should be fine.
Just keep an eye out for the leaves going dark or the tips clawing down. If it's gonna give you any problems that's usually the first signs

Thanks mate, it was only my second ever plant. Stick to the rules and it's easy to do like. Just need someone to break it down to the basics. Too many guys try to get too technical and it just Confuses things.
Literally all you gotta do is keep the ppm on point.
Keep the ph in range.
Don't let temps get too mental, I run my res at 29*c most of the time so you don't have to be too fussy about it.
Keep the rh high for veg then low for bloom.
Use 500-600w per square metre and use LST to grow horizontally as much as possible before they go into bloom.
And that's literally about all there is too it.
If you stick to those rules you'll be dropping pounders in no time. Piece of piss
Ok guys. Sorry for my absence. Life happens. So I’m on day 23 and I’ve pretty much kept everything the same. Have had some really hot days here at the moment and have started getting orange spots on my leaves. I’ve kept the humidity under 60 and have got decent air ventilation but it doesn’t seem to be going away. I’ve also checked for bugs and haven’t found anything. I suspected a deficiency or lockout because of the rock wool so I flushed it all with fresh ph water. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks guys.
Hey buddy nice set up. I'm a fellow hydro head. Anything you need to know just tag me and I'll get back when I'm on
Couple things jumping out at me.
Firstly, keep the plant in just the rockwool for a few days till its rooted up.
Personally I go 2 weeks but just whenever there's a few roots poking through is good enough.
Reason being. You want the cubes like 30-40% wet. Too wet and the roots will drown, too dry and theyll fry. Keep it there and the roots will grow infinitely faster. They also just need water at this point. My taps run 48ppm and they can go on that for 6 days. Easiest way with best root development is in a humidity box of some sort. Mines cost 99p.
I seen you say you soaked them in ph water, did you rinse the shit out of em first? Gotta give em a good long rinse under slowish running water (so they dont fall apart) to get all the crap out. It's alkaline as fuck and stunts them if your unlucky. Last thing you need with autos.
Secondly that's a big tent. I'm too stoned to go hunting the lights down, I'll get sidetracked and go off on a tangent somewhere. ..
but you're probably a bit shy depending on what the green finger one is. Also cheap shit chinese blurples are alright. I use them amongst other things.
Really shit ones are brilliant for seedlings cos you can get em closer. Don't chuck it.
And lastly are you using sm90, hydroguard or something like that to keep the res clean? Some manage without it but it's really risky. Usually ends in root rot and masses of gunge.
I go for sm90. Only need 0.3ml/L so it goes pretty far like. Handy to use as a root booster for seedlings too
great help and info

Plants are looking good apart from the strange looking one .
I would scrap it n do another seed if yeild is in sure mind but if not grow it out for fun you never know .
I'm subbed
It could be calmag deficiency bro since sure an led grower do you supplement with calmag in sure rez

Haha I really wanted to toss it but being my first grow I couldn’t bring myself to. I’m definitely after yield but with it being a recirculating system I fear putting one in place so far behind my end up in nute burn(don’t want that again) do you think I could get away with it?? I have one more think big seed and about 6 other strains.
Yeah I’ve been using cal mag. I think 1ml per litre. I did have nute burn about a week ago and had to cut off some dead shit after I flushed them out and ppm it ph didn’t move at all for a week and then the orange spots appeared. They stated of really dark, almost like smudged ink. They slowly go whitish orange. I flushed out my rock wool and ppm seems to be increasing by about ten a day
