Super Silver Haze & White Widow DWC 2019

[kentboy1296]

Well did a res change yesterday due to brown slime... Today ppm 265 ph 6.0 (both plants) humidity 39% 76°f res temp is 69°... Got all the slime off that i could with peroxide water and am running ONLY z7 and hydrogaurd with base nutes GH flora trio and rapid start. The roots look pretty good today... Another thing, both plants are really short and dense

This is whats coming off my roots when i rinse them off

My Super Silver Haze is reeeeaally dense, should i be doing some defoliation?

Res temp 69°
Did some defoliation to to super silver haze yesterday to open her up and let some light in to the lower and middle nodes. Going for a scrog, hoping to put that in place in the next few week. The slime has slowed down ( hopefully stopped ) new explosive root growth, so fingers crossed. Running z7 and hydrogaurd for it base nutes is the flora series trio with rapid start ( liquid kool bloom for flower )

Looking good. I think you could safely up the nutes. EC @ .53 seems light to me.

Yea, thats what i thought too, but the ec ppm has been staying steady day to day, so i figured they were eating and drinking the same amount, drinking bout a half gallon every 2 to 3 days. Will be upping them on next res change tho

 

[kentboy1296]

Well they both have drank about a half gallon sens last res change, so i made up a gallon of some slightly stronger nutes to up the EC or ppm witch ever u prefer, i can do both was at an EC of .54 265ppm and i upped it to .64 320ppm. Hopefully they react well to the feed increase, as the EC ppm stayed pretty much exactly the same sens res change, so i thought it was ok where it was, just seemed low, no deficiencies tho so thats all that matters.

Plants are looking good, looks like im going to have to up the nutes next top up roots look great, may have to spray with peroxide 1 more
time

 

[snowbound]

They look great. I would for sure up the EC. With the size of them i think you can safely go to 1.0 - 1.2. See how they take that and go from there.
I dont use ppm so not sure of the conversion rate to EC

 

[kentboy1296]

Thanks, and i have been gradually upping the ec with the top offs from drinking then next res change (3 days) its gonna probably going to ec 1.0... When i first started i used ppm, so i have a couple ppm meters layn around so i figured i would use them to double check my stuff. I only use/used the 500 scale ppm. Conversion for that is just your ec multiplied by 500 or 700 or what ever scale you are using. Thats how i interpreted it anyway

 

[snowbound]

Yup, that ppm you have is right around EC 0.6. They want...

Definitely, its my 1st dwc and i heard its definitely better to under feed than over feed. No deficiencies yet, wanna keep it that way will be upping a little more in the morning with a top off

 

[snowbound]

Always better to be safe with lower nutes for sure. Easy to bump up, not so easy to fix if you gas them.

Put my 2nd led up, its a 600 watt full spectrum and the plants LOVED it there is big new tops sens yesterday. Got my scrog net ready to drop on them in 2 weeks

I upped both to .8 EC 400 ppm with the top off i gave them ph is at 5.8

 

[kentboy1296]

Did a res change yesterday, confident that i got rid of the slime... Hydrogaurd and z7 is some BAD ASS SHIT, its what i use and will continue to use until it fails me. They are really growing now and i feel like im past the biggest part of the learning curve.

The EC is still dropping, so i have to do a top up on my res (drinkn about 1/2 gal every 2 days) upping the EC to 1.0 and ph 5.7

Yep, just upped the EC 1.0 they eating good and drinking good, starting the scrog in about a week and a half
