Hey Guys - I have a couple most like super basic questions that the pro's probably know but seem weird to me.
1. DWC FAKE ROOT ROT- the nutes and aditives are often darker in color and the roots will turn the color of the nute mix! So if I mix up my typical 2-2.5 gallon nute mix w a bit of root additives (which are typically brown in color) and some other random nonsense thats probably doing nothing but makes us feel good haha - WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT THE DISCOLORING OF ROOTS WHEN FEEDING GIRLS DARK COLORED NUTES?
2. When changing nute res - we take a plant thats sitting in 1-2 week old water, maybe longer and picking it up and placing this plant with a rootball thats covered in this old "filth" lol were legit bringing over the dirty water into our new clean res - ive tried this a few times and personally like it but i want to know what ya'll think:
When changing res - ill get a 8x4inch (or the smallest container i can get thatll support the plant) and just have clear water in it(RO) w a sprinkle of epsom and let it sit for like an hour with a couple ait stones in it to give it like a little cleansing lol is this horrible? good idea? or should we just be like nah fuck it be dirty and throw em in
