Sorry bud not sure why that posted here. Guess I smoked a bit
 
One more thing guys is i hv a bottle of hygrozeme . I hv asked people what the use for this is and i gt mixed answers . I was under the impression that its used to clean your buckets and equipment .

Here seems to be some information about that product. Rather than pasting the info here might as well provide you with a link so you can go and read about it.

Once again, I have no experience about this product nor I know anyone who does. Seems like you are right about the usage of this product as a cleaning agent. Manufacturer promises many other uses too, such as rooting.



Well updates for today nt much gowing on . She is on day 15 ph staying the same at 5.7 and 400 ppm . The roots hv grown alot since i added the B1 and humbolts roots .

Her longest root is 8 inches long and its about 4 more roots that r finally resting in the rez . Now i hope she takes off like every one else plants do in the journals i see .

"Bailers Booya"Seems she is getting a bit bigger and gaining some vigour. I bet not many days anymore when she starts to grow. Each plant is an individual and she just got all confused with the early rooting.

Haha! Happens to everyone I guess. Nice pictures anyway.
 
Its ok think diffrent , what strain is that she looks so healthy and green and just loving life at this point is that in a hempy bucket

And thanks Med grower its starting to seem like i can always count on u . And ya thats what i was figuring out . Im sorry im nt very good on the computer and the internet im trying to learn how to use it and work it .

But ya i hv a buddy that owns a hydroponic shop and he is always giving me stuff when he gts high lol .

But the thing is he stays so high that when i ask him stuff one day he gvs me an answer cause he is high and the next day he gvs me a totaly diffrent one lol.

So i just ask u guys , cause my friend is always high 24/7

Well guys seems like that Hygrozme is some good stuff to add to the rez , what u guys think , shall i gv it a go ???

Ok todays update 5.8 ph to 6.0 ph and ppm stayed the same at 376 ppm .

So what does it mean when ph goes up but ppm stayed the same .

This was my thoughts of how to understand .

PH GOES UP AND PPM GOES DOWN , SOLUTION IS TO WEAK
PH GOES DOWN AND PPM GOES UP , SOLUTION IS TO STRONG
WHEN PPM AND PH STAYS THE SAME , SOLUTION IS JUST RIGHT

So what does it mean when ph goes up and ppm stays the same ?????

I do not fully agree with this. It is good general rule but in no way an absolute. In practice, things can go much different. To gain more insight into why Ph would act differently to the above statement you mentioned, one must understand what minerals and nutrients are there in the reservoir to make up the balance of the Ph. Now the plant and the microbes in the reservoir eat up what they need and depending on what they take in and after that, secrete, it all can affect to the overall Ph of the reservoir.

In other words, while the ppm rating might remain stable, Ph might still fluctuate because of all kinds of reactions and interactions between so many organic and chemical agents. This doesn't happen to the same degree as the statement you mentioned.

This is just my opinion so take it as such. I hope it helps.
 
Thats normal & should be a good sign Shed:Cool bud:
 
Ok thanks guys, i dnt no what i would do without u guys .

But she is starting to grow since the roots hit the rez , and roots r white and its about 10 to 15 new roots coming out of the net pot , so ya im guessing she is on her way .

But im nt stressing so much as i was before im just sitting bk chilling , but i no i stunted her from the start so she might nt yield much , but thats ok with me . But it seems like im getting it

And my ak-49 auto dnt make it i transplanted her to soil about a week age cause she was nt growing and she just died out . Rookie mistake but its all good u live and learn lol.

And i was wondering how do u subscribe to peoples journals so u can watch thier grows , cause i wanna watch u all grows as they progress and just ride along so i can b as good as u all lol . Because this hydroponic stuff is or can be so challanging and i like that . !!!!
 
I must say referring to my previous pH -rant that I gave another chance for the 5.8 pH and it seemed to just ok for almost a week until I started to notice some serious signs of magnesium defiency. I had added Cal/Mag about 0.2 ec worth so only thing I could think of was that it was a pH -lockout.

Hope you are doing ok with the older leaves not going all light green, brown spotting and crusty. I upped my pH back to 6.2 for some extra magnesium feeding to avoid any further losing of fan leaves.

Maybe I will start swinging the pH every day by 0.1 between 5.8 to 6.2? Just to have a consistant feeding of magnesium every couple days and then back to better phophorus intake? Can anyone say if it would be wise or am I just losing my mind?

CAM01167.jpgCAM01168.jpg this the update roots hv explode in 3 days i think it was the humbolts roots that i been using . Thanks guys u r so awesome for all the help


med grower i think u are right because since then i hv been letting my ph go as high as 6.3 and then i take it bk down to about 5.5 and then let it keep climbing bk up and my plant is starting to look alot greener and no more yellowing
