Could be a root zone, bugs, ph, or too much light issue. You should be using enzymes if you aren't already. I've been dealing with root zone bacteria recently and my leaves would claw like that. How far are your lights and how much watts?

Could be a strain thing. root zone issues, environment issues, bugs can prob reduce terps. In my experience my first couple grows didn't have much flavor I was using general hydroponics. GH barely has sulfur in their mix, which contributes a lot to flavor, so I switched to athena and I get good...

I mix my own but haven't made a stock solution yet. I use the same ratios as athena with slightly less sulfur so I can add some potassium silicate rather than potassium sulfate. The potassium silicate keeps the ph stable and silica is good for strong branches. For the veg formula I use pek acid...

Nice setup. How did they turn out? Is the high humidity where you are a problem? I want to do coco hydro outdoors too but where I'm at is humid as well but a mold resistant tropical sativa should be fine they just take forever to flower.

Damn that's a major loss sorry to hear. You in soil? I have high humidity where I live too but haven't tried an outdoor grow yet. You growing mold resistant strains? Outdoors is tough there's so much shit that can go wrong between bugs, fungus, and environment but nothing beats sun grown.

I wouldn't. Especially since you have no perlite in your coco. Should only take a week for them to become root bound in a 1 gal pot. I have clones that have been in a 1 gal pot for prob a week now and they're just about root bound taking water once a day, should be needing twice a day soon.

I get high ph runoff sometimes. I'm not entirely sure what causes it but if I use some enzymes or peroxide it usually fixes the problem. How is your ec runoff?

Fusarium wilt will do that. I had a plant get it once. You should use beneficial bacteria and water with enzymes at least once a week to keep your root zone clean.

Give it some enzymes, peroxide, or beneficials on the next watering if you think it's overwatered. 300 ppfd could be a little too much for clones that were just rooted. Keep an eye out for pests too. I have some rooted clones in coco right now at 350ppfd. I water them once every 3 days in 1 gal...

I'm dealing with root aphids. Just got some spinosad today going to apply it all day today then again in a week but want to use anything else I can in between that week. Gonna apply some beauveria bassiana fungi too once it ships.

Athena IPM has .05% citric acid and says you can do up to 10ml per gallon soil drench which comes out to 50mg per gallon. Another product that's also .05% citric acid says you can do 1 fl oz per quart which is 600mg per gallon if my math is right. It's called doctor zyme but def a rip off...

What's the most you can use for soil drench? Maintenance dose and infestation dose? I'm in coco hydro.

Looks like it was a bacteria or fungi problem. I hit it with a heavy dose of enzymes I had laying around and now the ph is stable and the plants are eating again. I normally use peroxide since it's much cheaper but the enzymes are just as good and they don’t mess with organics since I’m using...

Are compacted roots a sign of hydrophobic medium? I was doing 50mg per gallon of yucca I'll start adding again but I don't see any solution to this issue. The plant with the most compacted roots is yellowing but the buds seem to be forming fine. The other plants look fine but are not 100% they...

I have 5 coco hydro plants on day 23 of flower. 3 jungle cakes, 1 madmartigan, 1 apples & bananas. Temp 84f, Humidity 40% at canopy. Water every 3 hours during lights on and once every 6 hours lights off. The roots are compacted in 3 gallon fabric pots. When I water them they puddle up & take...
