Can't figure this out

I am growing dwc and as the pictures show I have yellowing leaves with rust colored spots. Initially I thought it might be the beginning of light burn as it is only on a few leaves at the top of plant. So I raised the light. That didn't help. So then I thought maybe it was a calmag issue so I upped the calmag to 3 ml per gallon. That doesn't seem to have worked. So I thought I would ask you guys. I am running a Growers Choice roi 420 for lighting. Air temp is 81 degrees and humidity is... Can't figure this out from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Why hydro?

As thread title suggests, I'm just wondering why hydroponics seem so interesting to cannabis growers. Seems like they frequently talk about going to hydro stores or stuff pertaining to hydroponic growing. Why not just grow in dirt like with any other plant? from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

First time hydro. Leaf coloration and blemishes help

I notice theres darker green around the veins and the margins are lighter green. Not sure if this is just uneven Nitrogen or if its lacking Magnesium. The first pic is using Element Nutrients Complete Crop and Myco+ in DWC pH is 5.9 it floats from 5.5 to 6.2. The water temps are 74 cause its in a closet until the last 2 skunks finish flower in 1 -2 weeks then it will go into the tent that is 69-70F on the ground and ventilated.

New general hydroponics feed chart

So general hydroponics has a new feed chart. Im not familiar with the new chart. I’ve been using the old feed chart for the flora series, drain to waste. the new feed chart doesn’t specify whether its drain to waste or re circulating. I follow the old chart at 1/2 strength then slowly work my way up with the old chart but this chart is different. Now they have a basic 3 part flora trio chart and then an advanced chart wich adds calimagic and florliciousplus along with kool bloom when in...

Ebb & flow nutrients

Got a question about what to use in my ebb and flow system. I have on hand flora nova bloom and mega crop 2 part and my tap water is 330ppm so wondering is flora nova ok to run in ebb and flow with tap water with that high ppm? I can use the mega crop but I like the simplicity of the flora nova bloom. I have ran the system before but used 19-4-23 from start to finish. I know there is some folks on here that like the nova bloom and tap so maybe one of you could give me some advice please and... Ebb & flow nutrients from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Ebb Flow, watering Schedule/EC (definitely Not Dialed in) Help!

Anybody wanna share their ebb flow watering schedules/EC? I was reading Jorge Cervantes' book and it was talking about more watering cycles with less time was better, and to cut down ECs to .6 - .8 in flower (I think). So I'm week 2 Flower, at 1.8 EC, 10 minutes pump on time at lights on. (ran thru late veg at 1.5) Spiked to 2.2 burned em. Made me seriously consider margins of error.

new low pressure aeroponic system

Not trying to sell anything just want to see how much interest there may be. I've done some grows in a DWC bubbler type system(DIY 5gal buckets) and as the plants got big it was soo hard to properly manage(check PH/EC, change water, etc). So from my own frustrations I developed a system, it still uses the 5gal buckets for the plant roots to grow in but a unique bi-directional valve allows the nutrient delivery and return drain to use the same pipe automatically.

Only stupid question is the one you dont ask right?

Trying to get opinions before I change everything around. I know I've read about someone doing it before but don't remember the outcome. Does a submersible pump have to be submerged? I know they are made water tight so water don't get into the electrical part but does that make it why it has to be submerged? I know the intake end might need some tweaking to make it water tight. Since its sealed does that make it have to be cooled by the water also ,or? I have a brand new 2700l/h or about...

Seedling HELP (Flood & Drain Hydroton)

I finally sprouted a couple seeds (afghan) in rapid rooters!! but i have a few questions! I used rapid rooters to germinate/sprout in a dome/tray and used a water bottle to spray and keep everything moist.. then after a week i transplanted to the hydroton. the bottom of the rapid rooters are like 1/4-1/2" from the flood level.

Should I Add Hydroguard Every Top Off?

My plants are at the stage now where I'm adding a gallon of water every other day to the 5 gallon dwc buckets. I'm not sure if I should be adding hydroguard every time I top off? It would make sense for me to, but it could be the hg bacteria is not all absorbed in the water the plant drinks, and if so I'd be gradually increasing the hydroguard strength in the res if I'm replacing .5 tsp every time I add a gallon of fresh water.

DWC question

First question in years. I’ve always been a grow in dirt guy but was curious about DWC that I haven’t found anywhere else. Is water temperature that important? I have my space with temps around 73 lights on and around 66-67 lights off. With that much water in a bucket would water temps fluctuate that much and under those conditions, and be harmful for the plant? Thanks! from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Hydro help! MALFUNCTION

Hi all, these plants were in a diy system and long story short it didn't work.... It would be a shame to throw them away. I put the pots with roots hanging out the bottom in a water tight container added some water and hydroton so they don't dry out. They seem to be okay for now... What should I do? I have lots of spare parts and could knock something up if need be.... Just need an easy basic thing I can make to finish them off, even just one.... Thanks. from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Hi all, I made a top fed DFT system. It has about an inch of water in the tray at all times with an air stone to keep it oxygenated. It recycles via the overflow to the reservoir down below.

Micro Nute addition

So here is a question I cannot find an answer to, You have to add Micro first before Gro and Bloom, and I am always extra careful and add Micro then wait a half hour while I do other stuff before adding the other two nutes, but question is, after I have added all 3 parts and my PPM is not where I want it, can I then add more Micro to the solution after its been mixed?

2" RDWC bulkheads

I'm designing some 3d printable bulkheads for RDWC systems, and I'm just looking for some input/feedback. The biggest potential issue I see is that it has to be installed from the inside, as opposed to commercially available options, but I haven't been able to come up with a better solution that is still relatively easy to print. They will also only work on a flat surface. I've tested the fittings so I know they are water tight with no gluing or using silicone, which in an important feature... 2" RDWC bulkheads from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Coco and overwatering

Ok so I am growing in coco for my second grow. For the first coco grow I followed a technique of frequent fertigation watering three times a day. This worked very well but it was started with larger plants so I think they were able to breathe better. This grow I was doing the same thing and noticed plants were growing slowly and were showing signs of yellowing and dying leaves of older leaves. Thought originally this was phosphorus def. Increased phosphorus and the plants seemed to recover... Coco and overwatering from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

4x4 OD flood tray plant count

I am between grows for the winter and I'm trying to figure out how to optimize my grow. My signature has all the info from my first (and only) grow. Using the same style (rockwool ebb and flow) with a 6 week veg, I am curious how many plants I could do in my flood tray either with or without topping. I feel like I could do 16 non topped plants, maybe 6 or 8 plants topped 3 times, but I'm curious what input yall have since you were good to me my first grow.

Effect of oxygen concentration on plant growth, lipidperoxidation, and receptivity of tomato roots to Pythium F under hydroponic conditions.

Abstract The effects of the nutrient solution oxygenation on the growth of tomato plants and colonization of plant roots by Pythium F707, an isolate with filamentous non-inflated sporangia, were investigated under hydroponic conditions. Lipoperoxidation was also estimated determining lipoxygenase activity and conjugated dienes. Tomato plants were grown under either a high (11-14%; Air treatment), a moderate (5.8-7%; Control) or a low (0.8-1.5%; Nitrogen treatment)...
