Trying the TDs in rockwool 4x4 and ebb&flow with lucas formula. Wondering if and how should I tune this in? Like ph or additional nutes. Right now i run ph at 6.0-6.1 and they dont look happy. But tough to tell if ph or nutes should be changed/fine tuned.
hi, i'm currently using ebb n flow with 4x4 rockwool, try running your ph at 5.5 they will be much happier, mine were, hope it helps

here's my TD. I planted 5 seed's in soil on Jan 9th. 4 of the 5 sprouted on the 12, the 5th took another couple weeks. I had 2 that grew tall and 2 shorter ones but all of them had some tremendous branching. I'm still waiting to see what the fifth is like. They're on day 16 today.
Very Nice Grow....Your pheno's looks very similar to mine.....I am using scrog, where as your screening looks to be more directed to supporting future cola growth....if I am incorrect on this pls excuse.
I am behind you (still in Veg) with 40-50% fill on my screen....I am concerned about outgrowing my box (running out of head room) if I delay the flip until 80 to 90% fill of screen......what kind of stretch did you get when you flipped?

Looks like a few things that have compounded into a problem.
Tap or R/O water ?
Rez Temps ?
What nute line up ?
Medium in pots ?
We really need all the 411 to try and solve this for you, my friend.

Tap or R/O water ? tap - 65ppms so I decided to use it
Rez Temps ? not sure but it feels just like a swimming pool when you first jump in.
What nute line up ? botanicare pureblend pro grow
Medium in pots ?hydro

the ph swings from 5.6 on the low end and never seen it over 5.8 on the high end.

I'm thinking about taking some clones off of her and try to root those because the plant is not looking good at all. It's weird because my other two plants aren't affected at all but my td is.

From the looks of things, I would say nute burn & lockup (suspect your fan leaves are drying up).
If it was mine, I'd Flush well well with PH'd plain water, then re-introduce nuts at 25% and build from there.
Add some SuperThrive at 1 ml/gal & store bought h2o2 at 8 ml/gal till she recovers.....................
I regularly add 4 ml/gal h202 as a precautionary with every water/feed........................My roots smell sweet, regardless of what Hydro media/method I use including Hempy.
Hope this helps................

dishinit, some good advice, but you forgot to mention what strength the h202 you are using, bearing in mind there are 3 common strength available, someone could be way off with their mixing, what h202 are you using & yes that superthive is some amazing stuff, so glad i was told about it (thanks lil bro), i keep that at 1 drop per gal with every res change & 1 drop per large bottle of sodium free seltzer water & spray the plants once a day as lights come on, they love it

Hey there all - some amazing looking TD posted in here!! I hope mine turns out as well! Here's a few pics of my TD baby started in a waterfarm - roots are just starting to enter the rez now, so this is where things start to get more interesting! I'll be switching to the gas-lantern 12-1 lighting method shortly. This girl will get trained using the scrog method once she gets a little bigger and then the weaving will begin!

Enjoy the pics and come by my journal as well if you'd like! https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/418227-barneys-farm-tangerine-dream-waterfarm.html

These were taken a few dayz ago...

First post. I have a dream mothered and am taking clones.
I have the tall and red stem pheno.
I read earlier that someone posted they had grown TD five times before.
How is this possible as I got mine from attitude a week after they were out?

Thanks for catching that h2o2 omission...I use a store bought 3% h2o2 solution and am probably heavy handed with the Superthrive. I did get that dosage off the Superthrive bottle to use "when a plant is under stress", and so far, it has worked for me.
I have never used Superthrive in a maintenance manner and am curious/want to know about, any real world benefits you are actually witnessing.
And thanks for the Seltzer water spray tip.

It's possible because "tangerine dream" is Barney's commercial name given to the G13 X Nevilles A5 Haze...The strain has been around for years, only if I'm not mistaken, under the name of mango something or other..
I've got 4 weeks 'til my first harvest of TD and can't wait to see how it all works out. Buds seem a little stringy, but they pack on weight everyday and smell like
Green crack X Mother natures snatch...If I can find my cable for my camera I'll post some pics up to compare...DEF have a sativa dom pheno as the plant structure is typical of a sativa and the plants are growing into the ceiling...

Day 52, flushed today with 3 gallons of pHed water and florakleen because I think I had a magnesium deficiency. Anyways she is putting on weight nicely.
