Soak in butter or oil and cook with it.

I think what you said is true,... the weak ones. Some plants are just more sensitive and delicate and more prone to shock, I'm not sure why, even with clones. See what happens if you use a B vitamin rich formula, something meant to ease transplant shock.

If you had them in a humidity dome, the change in humidity/temp would cause that effect. Nitrogen migrates to the rootzone in that situation to keep the plant alive. Imho, you should be running your water at a lower ph 6.5 at the highest.

They won't as long as you are balanced in your tds, ph and reservoir change outs. Salt build up comes from nutrients not being utilized. Some brands have more mineral salt buildup than others. GH, I've known to be high.

Hmm, those pumps pull a lot of amps. Thanks for the tip about that psi pump. On another note, I took back an air pump like this I had running: Commercial Air Pump because even after I built a pimpin' sound proof enclosure for it (three nested boxes to create a broad serpentine channel for...

Thanks, I appreciate it. You are lucky for your first build, but as you know there's always improvements. The 10" pvc eh? I'd love to see the complete root system cannabis responds with in your rig. I looked at the specs on my 1034 gph pump, haha, it's has a rating of .25 psi. With these...

https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/402194-flooded-phatty-tube-vertical-evolution.html Why wait? Get another going in there and keep this rig as your bloom room.

Have any pics of it in veg & bloom?

This is my current grow: 600w HPS 6 site DIY Aero/NFT/DWC setup Botanicare Nutes Beneficial Bacteria and Fungi Tea Structured Water, orgonite and other esoteric testing. http://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/402194-flooded-phatty-tube-vertical-evolution.html

Your first grow? Nice, you should start a journal. My girls have been in flower for a week. My rig is a bit contrary to yours, my lighting is vertical and my nutrient delivery is horizontal. It's a bit of a aero/dwc/nft hybrid. I'm impressed with that bush you have, it's about twice as wide...

What kind of pressure crosses the line from low pressure to high pressure aero? Nice vid on the aero setup Mike Young, have you gone through a complete cycle in that rig yet? If so, any pics of the roots? Jordan293, what kind of aero system do you use to get plants that tall? Are you also doing...

Isolate your problem, take your plants out of the equation. Mix up a reservoir of nutes and leave sit for at least 24hrs, adjust ph and keep it sitting until it's stable for 24hrs. If your tds meter is calibrated to potassium your levels are fine but if it's calibrated to sodium, you are running...

The table you've seen that gives you those numbers is misleading. A 1000 watt light lights a 6' x 6' area well at 24" from the foliage. Light intensity doubles for every 6" you get the light closer to the canopy and the opposite is also true. For every 6" you are away from the canopy, the light...

Looks like a clean uncluttered setup. Nice job. I'd suggest a light over your rig. The offside lighting is not something you'll be happy with very long. I didn't see any sprayers on your rig, what do you intend on testing? Get a paint filter bag for your pump so you won't have to clean your...

After ~ 10 days with the addition of the beneficial bacteria & fungal tea. This bloom site has a water jet aerating just upstream of the net pot and an airstone.

Nothing lives in steam, that's the idea of pressure cooking,... creating steam. As long as you follow sterile procedures, you'll be just fine.

What's the science around ammonia and vinegar breaking down plant matter? Ammonia is alkaline and vinegar is acidic - do you put both on at the same time or alternate?

No, but it can sure feel like you're dying sometimes.
