SO a little update on this thread if anyone is interested. I did stop using the 3 part AN pH perfect nutes and went back to the Cyco base nutes, using an 0.8EC value at pH between 5.5-6.8 these plants dont swing the pH much as I am use to with my previous grows I have done with the Cyco line...

That is really low in the basket, you are going to be getting light into your rez which will cause root rot. any info on the type of water you are using and the light ? Do you have roots coming out of the bottom of the basket yet ? Are the buckets black? Looks like magnesium def. but without any...

GH that's fair, what is pH perfects pH value? and their EC value at their recommended serving as my original post stated? Set and forget is fine, until you run into problems. :lol: Im not looking for an argument but an actually discussion on them, or what is your EC and pH using these in DWC...

Hey Failmore Sorry for the late reply. The funny thing is when I spoke with the guy at the hydro store he tried to sell me hydrogaurd (or similar). He told me the high pH was due to running airstones in my DWC buckets and hydrogaurd would resolve that issue. I just looked at him like a deer in...

I've had better success with Medi-1 than 3part AN :hump:. Medi-1 is my go to for soil and peat moss grows.

Yeah I had that feeling thanks Wastei. My local hydrostore guy told me the airstone was causing the increase in pH to the DWC buckets and tried to sell me hydroguard. I just looked at him.

Just Be. I did set and forget but when I start to see def, I have to look its in my nature. Im not knocking your methods and I appreciate the open discussion on such things. So Im not wanting to come around sounding like a j*ck*ss nor am I here to arguing with people. I've posting my logs about...

After having an 2.3EC (recommended E.C. based on the feed chart AN they gave me) and a pH perfect value of 7.1 in store bought RO water. I've decided to skip the AN pH perfect 3 part nutrient base and went back to the Cyco Nutrients. Due to lack of information from manufacter of a rough E.C...

They look adorable, patience is a lost art, weed will bring you back to that. I think the 21day rule in a good setpoint. I wouldnt worry for now.

I dont use sterlizing agents in my grow just bounty towels for the inside of my buckets. So I have turned my exhaust fan off. Thus creating a 76-80f canopy temp in my tent, the plants have really bounced back. I took the AN feed chart and used it to par with extra cal mag and the plants love it...

The first time I did DWC I used the exact same buckets and the yellow lids let way to much light thru and caused root-rot and mold on my roots, that was once I went into flower, with the temps and you pH you mentioned you might have root rot issues.

Hey everyone. I started using this line of food for my DWC grow, I have been on the Cyco nutes for a while and felt like switching it up. I was attracted to the pH perfect line because I work away from home quiet a bit and my neighbour (non-420 smoker) loves taking care of my plants when I'm...

You might be overfeeding the plants every other day, causeing a real acidic soil. Can you test the soils pH ?
