1 of the free ladies in here finale spot on the beach

21" from bend

 

[Lurch Farmer]

Yes the light is vertical trying to get the ladies to bend over willingly in stead of braking .........
the ladies on the rack, I got stoned and went bonsai on them. they recoverd very nicely.

 

[Lurch Farmer]

All is well at 1 am.
At 7 am I find this

The leaves are still soft and flexable
No change from res to site of ppm (1100)
The pheno is different from the other 3
The only enviro diff is she sits in the corner not geting as much air movement

 

[Lurch Farmer]

it has gotten worse

 

[chubbzfat]

not bad on the trim job give it 7 days and that will be bushy as all get out look through my journal and find the one i extreme defoliated (my term i used for f-ing up) and 10 days later it was fully recovered and growing like a weed pun intended they all look really great by the way hope to see some pics of the pvc setup soon and in a short while if you keep an eye on my setup for the walls you can get a idea of what to expect from the system as i have built the walls so they have about an inch of water in them at all times well roughly 2 hours on and an hour off so i know that there is plenty of air to the roots so if you want to get a jist of what it might produce pop n once as for the concern about the last photo that looks like mine after the first round of deoliation in my case it was just a natural reaction to the trim job the plant was used to taking in a large amount of water and by the time the plant realised it wasnt in need of such the leave are filled with water and usually takes a day or two before they use it back up but if this is your problem there is no need to worry the lady will be back on her feet in a day or two and will probably go into overdrive (hope this is your problem and not something detromental to the garden

 

[Lurch Farmer]

at this rate she will be dead by 7 pm (est)
this is the only one haveing this problem showing 5 days after the defol and 3 days after tie down

 

[ajagunle]

At first I thought it was a reaction to defoliating, have you checked the system to make sure she has access to liquid?

 

[Lurch Farmer]

yes sir aprox 3 gal hour flow
I have a better planed setup < raised the circulation to almost 20 gph, I planed for grow 3(in veg at moment) I am going to change over tonight just noticed air devices are clogged

 

[chubbzfat]

check your roots real quick see if there is a noticable discoloration or smell if so might want to pull from the system if you have 3 gph flow rate even without airstones the water falling into the reservoir should create ample air to prevent this as long as there is a little space between pot and fluid level. if there is something funny in the resi might be able to save it if you put some in there to oxygenate water real quick then add something like hygrozyme to try and bring it back but without seeing pics of the resi i really cant try and guess with any certainty keep us updated on the health of them ladies

 

[Lurch Farmer]

There are 4 plants hooked up to the same res. Each site holds 3-1/2 gall and 2 res (21 total)

roote are a nice white and smell like a root celler, or the same as other grows,,clean

p.s. I know the pick looks brown but they are white

 

[chubbzfat]

yea they look really good and if they smell normal i would look at other causes look through my notes real quick and see if i can find any other causes

 

[Lurch Farmer]

Thanx chubbz, The water level is 4-5" below the basket and when I lower the res , it is almost 7, but air makes it an aero , if i leave the top off it will send water misting almost a foot around the bucket

 

[Concrete Seed]

What size/how many air-stones are you running per bucket..? I personally run (x2) x2-site DWC setups & I use x1 Lrg circular airstone per plant-site for a total of x4 Air-Stones. My roots are always white because of those huge air-stones. On this run, i'm using the new Cyco Platinum Series Nutrient line.

CHEERS!!!

 

[Lurch Farmer]

After a 2 hour H2O2 bath, new buckets/setup, ( side note: the leaves have dark spots)

the sick lady brown spots

it is time to start a second journal,( as soon as I figur out how to link it to my sig)

for now direct flow will have to do till I can come up with a manifold

 

[Lurch Farmer]

well the wife reminded me last night,that this plant was always burning when the others were good and she was good when thothers wer under feed.
so in conclusion, she will be geting her own private cell.

 

[Lurch Farmer]

welcom to "THE RACK"

bug zaper

she is recovering

 

[Lurch Farmer]

The Rack now has its own jounal
Lurch Farmer - The Rack - 400W - 4" PVC - Bag Seed

 

[Lurch Farmer]

oh well 50% ain't bad.another boy showed up.
Which works out nicely as the ladyies are close to ther final trim. this way I will trim fewer of the side branches. and welcome some popcorns for cooking( wife is happy ).
