Oops - Hydro help!

[Hillbilly420]

I wasn't paying attention at the time and put bloom before gro and im low on the bloom I'm only .5 off I put my reader in it and ppm is 500 I'm week 2 flora series but the water reads 20ppm before any nutes, so that's 480 ppm taking the 20 from the water, I'm kinda new on hydro I wouldn't mind some help, thank yall

Re: Oops (hydro help)

It's not going to be a problem to do that most likely. You will just need to add some nitrogen by changing out the reservoir and adding grow nutrient. Then when it comes time to flower if you are short on bloom nutrient buy some more. Can you post pics of the plant?

Yea surehttps://www.420magazine.com/gallery/data/500/medium/1214152351.jpg

Still early yet huh. She looks okay to me so no harm done.

 

[Hillbilly420]

Yea she is, I'm just worried about her she will be in New water and nutes tonight hopefully she will get the right feeding

 

[ShiggityFlip]

Start a grow journal and we can get some peeps in to watch your grow and help when things go wrong.

 

[Hillbilly420]

Btw it's dwc and feeding with floraseries

 

[ShiggityFlip]

Gotcha that's a good nutrient.

 

[Hillbilly420]

I hope so man, I got the starter kit and grape nectar (since it's purple haze) lol

 

[Hillbilly420]

Btw it's not I didn't add the gro I was making a new feed and I put micro then "bloom" and the gro, instead of micro,gro,bloom before I move the baby over I wanted to know would she be fine in that water

 

[ShiggityFlip]

Oh that should be fine. The important thing is micro first.

 

[ShiggityFlip]

I wouldn't change the solution then. Micro needs to be first because it has a lot of micronutrients. You want those molecules to be nice and dissolved before adding the grow and bloom nutrient so chemical reactions are less likely to happen that would make the micro nutrients become unavailable to the plant. So as long as you add micro first you are golden.

 

[Hillbilly420]

All right thanks I'll keep y'all updated on this

I don't even use the grow, GH nutes and the lucas formula no matter in my coco coir or dwcr system with some cal/mag and all is good.

 

[G00ch]

2 things that make a grow formula, more nitrogen and more phosphorus, nitrogen for top growth and phosphorus for root growth.
Bloom has more phosphorus and potassium and less nitrogen

That's wild to me lol, I figured that they need the grow in veggy it has the grow pretty much through it all, well I got my stuff and I added the point 5 of the bloom in the dwc and got up this morning and she's fine, but still has the stress leaf going on, next week I'm gonna put rapid root, blend, plus, that should help her

 

[Hillbilly420]

Alright in back with another question, I looked at chillers, ice probes, etc. But I'm doing a dwc one res "it's self" it's in a 3 gal I'm not doing anything huge, I've been doing ice bottles but I don't have any roots coming out of the net pot, when roots come out would it still be ok to do ice water? Here is another idea me and my buddy thought of, getting a tote and cutting the led out for the 3 gal to fit down onto turn putting water in the tote and making that water ice cold to cool it off, any suggestions?

 

[ShiggityFlip]

Thats exactly what I was going to suggest, that way the ice wont touch the roots. Lots of people do just that. Good thinking man.
