Hello all! I was hoping to ask a few questions about my rdwc system. I have 4 plants growing, each a different strain. I know this isn't recommended, realized my mistake after germ. The four strains, from best looking to worst, are: Turbulent Juice, Grape Gas Station, Panama Pupil V3, and Dandelion Gum.
They were growing great for a week after transferring to buckets, but now showing a few distressing signals.
Germination: Feb 17
PH - 6.02
PPM - 472
EC - 1.004
Water Temp - 68-74f
Air Temp - 75-80f
Humidity - 46-55%
Nutrients: Fox Farm: Grow Big (1/2 str), Big Bloom (1/2 str), Kangaroots (1/4 str), Microbe Brew (1/4 str); true Cal-Mag (1/2 str); Grower's Recharge (one dose so far); GH PH Up & Down
Lights - 300 true watts HLG QB132 4000K (another 300 watts of QB132 3000K waiting for flower)
Water - Reverse Osmosis
Aeration - 1x 4" airstone per bucket
Environment - 48x48x80 Grow Tent
Ventilation - AC Infinity 6" model with Digital Controller
Type: RDWC 4x 5-gallon buckets, 27-gallon (max) res, with approximately 32 total gallons in the system, currently fed through both bucket supply and drip feeders, 1100gph pump supply, gravity feed return
Image of environment:
--The TJ looks the best, but has a few white-ish lines going on.
--GGS is next largest, but the leaves seem to be curling inward and reach upwards toward the lights at night.
--The PPV3 is the most concerning, showing a TON of small light brown spots on all but new growth, and it's also wilting. Its root system isn't as developed as the first two, either, though it's only slightly smaller.
--The DG got trapped in the seed casing and fell behind the other 3, getting some slight nute burn when given the first supply of nutes. It's difficult to see from the image, but the 3 finger leaves are dark near the tips and get lighter towards the base. I think the others may display this to some degree, as well.
I don't really know what's going on. With my limited knowledge, I'd guess the PPV3 has a manganese deficiency, the GGS seems like lockout, TJ seems to be holding strong, and the DG is just stunted. I thought root rot, but the roots look healthy. I've included images of each plant, with their roots as well, the grow environment, and additional images of the PPV3 spotting issue.
Can anyone give me some advice with what could be my problem? First grow ever, so any advice would be very appreciated. Thank you so much!!!
