Pissed off an frustrated.... everytime i start my DWC

[Roullette]

did rockwool.. way better results with the plugs hands down.. the lights are floros.. if anything to far away


just want this to go away.. i mean every gro i do is slowed down.. those were in 18/6 since 3/10/09...... tell me that doesnt suck balls

 

[atrumblood]

hmmmm. looks like ph issues.

 

[Roullette]

see thats what i thought too!!!!..

think its the meter? think fluctuates alot jumps between 5.4-6.3

honestly nvr really trusted it.. i adjust the ph to 5.5 at night then by morning its shows around 7.0-7.7

meters not even 3 months old.. even on my calibration the solutions supossed to mmake it 7.0 but its at 6.8 or 7.1 or 6.9 nver 7.0 like it should be at

I went to the doctor a few years ago. I told the guy my left elbow hurt every time I pulled on my right ear lobe. The doctor told me not to pull on my right ear lobe.


Long story short, if you are having a problem with DWC, don't use DWC. Try hempy buckets, flood and drain, coco, or regular soil.


I was never a fan of DWC anyway. Overly complicated in my opinion.





As a side mention, I would say stress is a large reason for your herm issues. Your seedlings appear to have nute burn in their early leaves. That could also be from ph issues. Always calibrate those cheaper Ph pens once a week.

[LoudBlunts]

[Roullette]

Try soil! ?

Ding Ding Ding!!!






I usually don't advocate this, but growing really isn't for everyone. Growing hydro really isn't for everyone. If your ph is where it needs to be, your ppm (please tell me you are testing this) are alright, temps, lights, and watering frequency is alright, I don't know what to tell you.

 

[Roullette]

got one going now.. sick ass herm.

my soil start off fine but tend to yellow in flower for some reason. but again im not a big fan of soil just did it to fuck around.

only style i havent tried yet is aero. but not gonna try anything else till i can get the 1st 2-3 weeks of vegging off with out any issues.

 

[Roullette]

growing isnt for everyone?

 

[Roullette]

now you show me yours?

 

[WhatWouldBobDo?]

now you show me yours?

I don't post pictures of my grow. Thanks for asking though.

And yes. Growing isn't for everyone. I didn't say it wasn't for you. I also said growing hydro isn't for everyone. I didn't say it wasn't for you.


If you were getting such stellar growing results, what method was that? And why don't you stick with what's working? Or did those turn hermi too?

 

[Roullette]

those are dwc. an 4 of 5 hermed. but again i think its from the deficencies i get in the beginning...

i guess ill have to figure it out.. thanx guys

 

[Hockeyman]

Are you always using the same containers for growing? If you are, I'd suggest sterilizing everything with a bleach solution to ensure there is no left over bacteria from previous grows. The bleach solution doesn't have to be super potent, just one cap full to a 4L ice cream pail is a sufficient sterilization solution. Once sterilized rinse throughly with hot water and allow everything to "air dry" Don't towel anything as this may re-introduce bacteria to the containers from the towel.

Just my .02 cents

is that a vibrator you are holding hahaahaha
