Hey all, Got the root rot straightened out, and have some nice white roots now! They have all grown well now that that is solved, however I have been nursing them back with CFLs so I will switch on the MH LED on soon and tell what exactly happens when I switch it on. MJA

Ya know I really could never figure it out, but my guess now (promise it is my last hypothesis) is that I got root rot and it locked out the nutes in a very critical time in growing. Having the LED on full blast while the big plant was in there made it too warm ambiently and made the res...

Well Wazzax, I am definitely doign a whole water change on the babies tomorrow. Hopefully this crap clears up. I'm not so sure about the K def, but it is something that I have looked into as well. Hopefully something gets put right soon, I'm going to have a coronary. MJA

Alright, I have the light at 3 foot, I had it at2.5 before. The light actually has a half power setting so it is only 300 watt right now. Signs have gotten worse since last night again. I may just shut that light off for now and go with the CFL until they get a bit bigger. MJA

Hey all, I am going absolutely insane here. I have never had this problem before but wow I am feeling it now. I have the MHLed 3 foot above these girls on Veg switch. I have been spraying them with the epsom salt mix that most of us know, I have a fan running and I am going to change their...

I have been using an epsom salt mix, however I also use calmag. Do I need to be dosing my DWC more often wiht the calmag? MJA

Hello everyone, I am having a bit of trouble this go around, I usually don't struggle this much but I got a new light. The light is a 600w LED with switches for bloom and grow. I put these babies in the tent when a bigger plant was in there in flower so they were in when the bloom light was...

The more I thought about it, and the more research I did showed me that I could have magnesium def., phosphate def., or potassium toxicity., lol. What a ride I'm taking with Hydro along with the MH light now!! Well I then started to realize my babies were showing these same signs. I'm like no...

Thought I would chime in a bit on how things are going here with my NLxBB Autoflower. I had vegged her under a 150watt DS100 LED and she did very well, outgrowing her soil counterparts quickly. As soon as I got the new tent and light I set it up and got her in there wiht more head room and the...

The thread will still live as I have autos and we need info on this thread of both photo plants and autos ;) MJA

I'm using it in soil and in DWC. I've never tried coco. MJA

Hey guys, I wanted to address that I do use Silica now, and have for this whole grow and it has added a lot of strength to the stems, and it has prevented any issues of calmag or anything really. I would encourage the use of silica just for a stronger plant, and it's only like 20 bucks for a...

A lot of people who slam LED have not used them, or have and didn't adapt to the new growing style. You have to tweak your style of growing a bit to be successful. Good for you pulling the trigger on it. I have had nothing short of good results with LED. I hope everything goes well! MJA

If you end up doing the autos, which is what I do, I would do 4 in that size of tent. I just got a 4x4 and I have the same light. LED is awesome but watch the calmag. The LEDs do something or other that pulls a lot of calcium and magnesium, so always dose it. BTW Autos LOVE DWC. Way more...

Awesome, thanks for the heads up! Iv'e been doing it for a year, I'm getting my 4th grow under my belt ending in about a month by my calculations, lol. I have two autos in soil and one in DWC right now because I wanted to see the differences. So far, my DWC plant is bigger than both soil...
