I have a 4 bucket RDWC system with plants that just turned 2 weeks old, and for some weird reason, some are growing much better than others, despite having exact same conditions and sharing the same nutrient rez.
I just don't get it, maybe someone out there can shed some light on what may be going on.
We had a serious heat wave in the 1st week of growth that has now passed that may have effected the one problematic plant in one of the buckets.
One green crack plant is rocking it, looks totally healthy and older than the rest, with lots of roots hanging in the bucket, while the other green crack plant looks like it is showing signs of deficiency and stunted growth with only one little tap root just starting to appear. Why might this be?
EVERYTHING is the same, the top feed is working fine, it's getting the same nutes delivered to it as the healthy plant, the fan air flow is the same, so why does this one plant look so sickly?
I've already trimmed it's first set of leaves off because they were getting spotted, brown and crispy, but now the next set of leaves is starting to look the same.
The rez temp is 19 degrees C, and the PPM's are around 80 right now, I just did a rez change this morning thinking maybe there is bacteria in the nutes as it did get to almost 85 degrees F in the grow tent with that heat wave, and the nutes got to around 24 degrees C at one point. It was freakin hot here last week!
So, what do you think?
