Much improved!

So ladies and gents, it came down to water temps and oxygen levels. The bulb I was using put off high temperatures to deal with, plus outside conditions. The final solution was a trough of water to put my grow in! Keeps temps regulated way easier now! Also, went over to led for light heat output.

I keep my pH right around 6.00 +/- 0.05, and I believe my ppm was around 1500. Water temp was around 74-75, though. I can’t afford a chiller for individual buckets, so I’m making pH corrected ice.

To answer everyone above, I have no calmag but I have been using epsom salt in the water. And that’s where I believe the problem is at the moment after further examination. I’m trying to figure out ways to pull water temps down because it’s lowered the ability of the water to maintain enough...
