PK Perpetual Grow Journal 2020

You should be able to pick up a small bottle from your local grow store for 15 or $20.
ok good to know. does it have any particular name?
 
Just call your local auto supply place and ask them if they sell battery acid!
so, thats a negative. I even called a battery place that charges batteries and sells it but they either don't carry or they don't sell it due to regulations.

Cyco PH up/down works great, use it by the drop.

Damn! Amazon?
ya, another big fraud company

Sulphuric Acid
Sulfuric acid is a highly corrosive chemical that is potentially explosive in concentrated form. It can cause severe skin burns, can irritate the nose and throat and cause difficulties breathing if inhaled, can burn the eyes and possibly cause blindness, and can burn holes in the stomach if swallowed

lol! that's all i need and i'd definitely blow something up! :laughtwo: :laughtwo: i'm not even sure where to get that

Call up a motorcycle dealer and see if they have any. Most of those batteries are sold unsealed where you have to add the acid yourself, they may have some.
Thank you, i will call some tomorrow. Bikes do have a smaller battery size but i am just not sure if they are fill up style.
That is old design and the new car batteries you can't fill up anymore. not sure on the bikes.

She is growing, but i think she is hungry again? or are those the perfect green leaves?
 
i am wondering if i need a pump in there so that the water rotates?
I've also been told that the white stuff in the res that was visible on the recent video is "Cyanobacteria"

Cyanobacteria, also called blue-green algae, are microscopic organisms found naturally in all types of water. These single-celled organisms live in fresh, brackish (combined salt and fresh water), and marine water. These organisms use sunlight to make their own food.

Cyanobacteria are very important organisms for the health and growth of many plants. They are one of very few groups of organisms that can convert inert atmospheric nitrogen into an organic form, such as nitrate or ammonia.

Blooming cyanobacteria can produce cyanotoxins in such concentrations that they poison and even kill animals and humans. ... Recreational exposure to cyanobacteria can result in gastro-intestinal and hay fever symptoms or pruritic skin rashes.

Cyanobacteria are aquatic and photosynthetic, that is, they live in the water, and can manufacture their own food. Because they are bacteria, they are quite small and usually unicellular, though they often grow in colonies large enough to see. ... The other great contribution of the cyanobacteria is the origin of plants.

any thoughts?

Don't over think it, you're using powdered nutes, and a powdered PH down. My first thought anyhow is it's a result of a powder not broken down, but then again I never heard of that bacteria lol

i'm not sure, your best guess is as good as mine. Maybe i should throw one under the microscope and see if the sucker moves?
 
right so now i found it PK and every 1 who thaught i was mad needs to remeber this aswel as help solve it

1 litre bottle water 017pm bottle a
1 litre tap water 377ppm Bottle B

both bottles get
bag 1 0.66gram
bag b 0.66gram

the GLN RECCOMENDATION NOW LOOK AND EXPLAIN NOW!

bottle A bottled water PPM ....714 (reccomneded im tryin hit 671 so not bad this i expect in ppm differneces)
bottle B tap water PPM 1890 (with a 377 base so 1577PPM in nutes)

so the tap water somehow is effecting it prob due to the ammount of calcium in my tap as ur meant to add that bag B last.

so do i re calc my feed for tap?
so do i try filter water?
will this fix by adding to water first before the tank..no same result.
can i get a RO filter now??? NOPE impossible atm price on them and im in loft preassure needed to get it there is daft,
after this grow i can afford to get it but till then what can i do?

I think we all have mentioned multiple times on different threads what you should do.
you should sue your city hall for giving you such water :laughtwo: :laughtwo:
your tap water is no good, either get a RO filter, rain water or purchase water from the store like that bottle of water you bought that had 17ppm.
 
Found the problrm.
I use ecothrive neutralise to removr chloramine.

I just did a mix without it and 1000ppm added 3 drops 1300ppm

Its a vit c chlorone remover... Knowing what it is am i safe to use that ontop of my ppm if its a non food extra ppm?

It doesnt do it water solo only with nutes

i don't know man. I don't use that stuff so it's hard to say.
why don't you try to make a filter and see what the results are. i found this article to make a DIY filter.
 
7.5ml of battery acid into 92.5ml of water will give you 100ml of 7.5% solution. Scale as needed!
ok Shed, I've got 100ml of acid battery. if my math is correct 100ml of acid would be mixed with 1,333.3333 ml of water?
