Hey guy,

just ran into a problem with my rdwc. everything look fine about 3 days ago and i didnt do nothing out of ordinary. im on 1 week of flower and it wilting to their death. just check n ph is at 5.3 , gonna buy ph up in the morning. But just when i flip the switch instantly it start to wilt and recover during dark cycle. The temp is at 82-85. humidity at 40%. Root are still growing. Cube is not soak and not overwater or underwaer. im stress out tryin to find info about wilting. again just as i turn on my light it instantly wilt but just as i turn off the light it perk back up. im doing 12/12 right now and the plants wont survive or wilt pretty bad if it continue through the whole light cycle. Leaf are nice and green. i was thinking it might be overwater but as i ripe open the cube from 1 of the pretty bad wilting one, the root still look white , cube is not dry nor soak. i wouldnt think it be ph to make it wilt this bad. PLZ HELP!

If you need an emergency PH up use hydrogen peroxide. I've used a quarter cup per gal without any negative consequences except ph+(H2o2 also gives roots more oxygen and prevents rootrot and fungus from forming).

You could use baking soda too for PH up but then you'll have salt build up.

I just use zerotol last night . Funny thing is I search the forum and nobody seem to have the same problem im in. Im letting the cube dry up hoping it overwater. But I will post some pic tonight.
Also im using ro water.
