hi guys!!
this is my first grow, DWC, 3 plants in one res.
strain: low rider autoflower, i am 6 weeks since they germinated out of the rockwool.
nutrients: bio nova hydro supermix, pk 13-14, x-cel, and enzime. all bio nova.
top feed sistem, with submersible pump, 240 galon per houer, 15 minutes on and 15 minutes off when light on (20\4) and off when dark.
res: 10 galon water in a box of 15 galons or so.
grow room (closet) temp: 67-79.
water temp: 65-72
ppm now: 750
ventilation: vortex 240 m3 per hour. the air changed in less then a minute
they say on the label of the hydro supermix that if using in soft water area, you have to supplement ca 15.
i am using RO water and couldn't find ca 15 in my country, so i am mixing the reservoir in ratio of 2:1 RO water with nutrient by the instruction they told me, and bottled mineral water, because the main component in tha water is calcium. 80 miligram per liter.
from the very begining i had some nutrients disorder. brown spots on older leaves, yellowing from the center of new leavs, new groth leave curled outward....
PH is between 5.5 and 6.2. every 48 hours it drift to 6.2 and i lower it back to 5.5
my question is: is it mag deficiency or calcium deficiency? those brown spots apear on the leaves as they get older, and get worse the older they are.
sorry for my poor english...
