New Grower first time grower looking for lots of help.

[Renaissance Redneck]

I am not sure what my RH is (what is RH?). To measure my PH I am using drops with a color meter that only goes from 6.0 to 7.6 =( I will get to the introduction forum as soon as I can. I am very slow with everything I do and I am still learning to navigate around the site. Thank you for the help.

RH is relative humidity, but don't sweat it now. You're doing fine, Bro.
I would suggest you lose the foil, ASAP. It can create localized hot spots that will burn your babies, and it's very conductive stuff, bad in a wet area with power!
Drops are good, a meters better, but I've used drops with great results.

Thank you for the link but I don't think mine looks like any of those examples =(

Thanks Redneck I'm going to get rid of the foil or just use pieces small enough to cover the other holes. Should the spotting on the leaves be a serious concern?

To me it looks like a mechanical burn, and the foil can cause that. Even if it's not, I'd eliminate the foil ENTIRELY, double check my pH, and maybe give a bit more info on your feeding. Is this soil, or more of a rockwool with the roots dangling in solution?
I'm not familiar with your setup, but if you need to block off areas I'd look for anything but foil. Would landscaping cloth work? Or maybe just good old duct tape? :dunno:

Sorry, yep, you already said hydro. :stoneslap:

It takes a few tries before u find what is right for your ressy. I tried camg+ which caused problems with roots and bacteria but helped the plant with the calmag issue. I changed to go green which has added N in it and gave my plants an N toxicity issue as they were in flower. I have 1 plant that turned out to be a photo which is still vegging and it is LOVING the go green. Also my ressy HATES carboload, not sure why maybe its the heat. So just do your research and pick a commonly used nutrient as your base. That way u will get some advice quick if things go wrong.

I use general hydroponic flora series personally. Maybe search some completed grow logs and see what they are using.

For me it looks like : mechanical burn (nut drops on the leafs) or ph swing to much (lockout). If it stops after couple of days than you'r fine. Just try to monitor and check your ph (when correcting try not more than 0.3 + or - in one time)

To upload pics switch to the basic uploader, lots of people are having problems with the normal uploader.

The basic one only does one upload at a time.

I removed most of the foil lining the bottom of the aerogarden but still left little foil squares to cover the empty holes. The bottom leaves are now not touching any foil. Maybe this will help stop the possible mechanical burn?
