GreenThunder Dips Into Hydro

[GreenThunder]

diy ones I make

I'd love to learn more about this if you're willing to share

I'm camping so on my phone and hard ta find old pics

Search soaker in my thread and ya should find it

It's basically the 1/4" soaker hose, entire hose is pouruse, not the kind with little holes, just like what yers is

A few Ts, and Yer dialed

I don't know what went wrong but Laughing Buddha's roots got brown gunk and her res smells like a dirty fish tank

Sooooooo fresh bucket and new hydroton. I also assembled a spider ait with a single cross piece

All tucked into a peroxide flush

With a visit from Wonder Woman to encourage courageous growth

Good luck Wonder Woman!

I need help identifying what this leaf is saying...

After the peroxide flush I swapped out the peroxide flush for a batch of nutes with hydroguard. I meant to go light but ended up a bit higher than intended. I’ll keep an eye on it.

3 gallons water
1.5 ml power-si
22ml ea AN SensiGrow A and B, SensiCal,
10ml hydroguard
ppm 1050
pH adjusted with AN pH Down to 5.7

Status check the next day:

ppm 870-1000 (it was jumping around because of the bubbling)
pH 6.2
water temp 67°
closet temp 73°
humidity 57%

I'm not the best diagnostician but looks like an iron deficiency to me, possibly zinc. Also, take out a cup of water to test the pH and TDS so the bubbling won't mess with the readings.

Here is the standard leaf diagnostic chart I use.

Brilliant!

Thank you for the chart.... I agree with your assessment and will be watching new growth (like a hawk after its prey)

I foliar sprayed with Liquid karma just now. Hopefully that'll help her recover from the stress.

Finally got some z7 and replaced the res with fresh nutes plus the z7. Read up on this stuff and if it's half as good as the description we should see a healthier plant soon. Oh and I did a root check.... she's got one growing out of the pot and a couple others that are close

This was last night right after changing the res

This is today, less than 24 hours later (yes, I am impatient)

Two Grape Ape clones have joined LB in the closet

 

[InTheShed]

Looks about 23 hours perkier!

I knew it!!

 

[GreenThunder]

She's showing signs of recovery!!

And check out those roots!!

I told her "if you want to keep living, just let me know" I guess she does!

 

[InTheShed]

Excellent recovery! She told you loud and clear.

 

[GreenThunder]

Here's that (no longer) sickly Laughing Buddha clone now. Hard to believe it's the same plant

New starts... Blueberry Auto and Amnesia Haze Auto. Seeds popped open this morning and tonight I tucked them into rockwool cubes

 

[InTheShed]

A couple of DWC autos? This should be fun!

Oh dear, am I experimenting again?! I really thought I was past that

 

[InTheShed]

Maybe experimenting for you, but I've seen others here do it with great results...hence my "fun" comment .

I did a Blue Dream'matic in DWC, she was a beast, I even go so burnt on growing I neglected her and others, and they all did fantastic

I'd say I pulled the most off of her by dbl than any other auto I've grown

Gonna do a Dark Devil auto soon as well in DWC
