Bubbleponics - Top-fed DWC - Seedling very slow grow - Leaves curled

[Scientific]

Hey OTM -- If you can grow 6-8 foot trees it sounds like you've got the fundamentals mastered, so I'd guess it's just a matter of figuring out the vagaries of indoor hydroponics and you're set.

This is my first hydroponic grow, and the one big takeaway that I have for DWC (after the soaking wet rock wool debacle) is to measure and monitor my pH very carefully and keep it stable around 5.8. I was having mysterious leaf problems earlier that I variously guessed were caused by too much light, too low humidity, fan too high, but through the retrospectiscope, I think now that they were all based on not having my pH right (too low). Now that I have that figured out it looks like pretty smooth sailing for the moment.

Good luck and have fun!

Thanks for the encouragement...its all a learning curve and experimentation with determination is the key, besides it is also kind of a therapy with benefits!

Exactly.

Hello Scientific!
Can you please share the result of this grow? How did it work out? It was a great save in the early life of the plant, and I would very much appreciate to know the end of her story. Thx in advance!
