Grow Mediums Spider Webs??

AH,
Yeah you fed/introduced a fungus with that product
The main thing you want to watch for is it suddenly dying and you not being aware.
If that happens the enzyme product that you use, will help, but you will need to remove any decay that you can with as minimal damage as you can.
I would use a sink spray attachment or something similar to assists in manually removing as much of the fungus as you can. The keep an eye on it.
Your rez should never have an offensive smell, if it does something is not right. Earthy is ok, metallic is ok (iron or B vitamins), but if it makes your nose wrinkle it probably needs to be addressed.

Sounds good grey I'm just waiting for this to fungus to clear out I already stunted this plant a lot so lets hope I can make up for it. Im watching my rez water carefully so thanks the tip! should I water the rest of my plants with the H2o2 to kill anything that spread? or should I just wait until I see something

I finally got a pen and my PPM was 291 and I feel like thats way to low so what should I do?

 

[Grey Bear]

Yeah, that is low.
Tell me what you have in your rez.
Approximate if you don't know.

All I had in my rez is 4 tsp of Flora gro and 4 tsp of Flora Micro and the h202 oxidizer peroxide and 1 tsp of mexican bat guano. I added the Micro after my last post my current PPM is 470 now

I also Bought some zho root inoculant today but I didn't use it yet because I dont think I can mix that with the Oxidizer, Am I right?

 

[Grey Bear]

Ok,
I see where some of the problem is coming from.
No more Bat guano in the hydro rez.

I hate say it, but I would swap out that rez with a fresh batch. using first your enzyme product @ their recommend dosage, then flora grow and flora micro at recommended dosage, for the age of your plants. your ppm will vary according to the age of the plant.
Which I don't know by the way.
Could you give me details? strain age lights
A pic of the plant would help.
No-one here will laugh at anything stunted or ragged. Anyone that's grown has had a few at the very least.

I can't post picture now but its about but the light is off in my tent so I will change the water in the morning and the plant is 29 days almost a month. just not getting a ppm pen and mistakes its pretty stunted so should I'm just finishing it out for experience. The leaves are all health looking so im not giving up yet lol and the roots look really good. since its so old and stunted should I give it more nutes?

In the flora series you should be giving equal amounts of grow micro and bloom

Under normal circumstances your total ppm should be between 1100-1300 by now, but they have been on a very mild feed so

fill your rez a little short with h20
I would add your enzyme product at manu recs assuming it is full
then 5ml of each flora-Grow Micro Bloom per gallon of h20
wait for a few minutes test ppm adjust as necessary by adding nutes or h20 to bring ppm to approx 700-800ppm
wait again for a minute or so and test ph
adjust up or down as necessary to bring ph to roughly 5.9-6.0 (close is good enough, this will swing a little) but you should intervene if it dips below 5.5 or above 6.5

all that make sense?

Ps the bat poop will be great for your soil plants, but organic material in hydro really needs to be approached differently.

Okay So bat poop gone and only for my soil lesson learned lol. Im going to add a little bit of the botanicare zho tomorrow but im not to sure how much Im confused with that. Okay I need to use the bloom nute I figured it would it be to early, so that other part is going to bring my ppm up?
