Pull up a chair folks. We have feminized gelato and critical white that we initiated on 4/20. Both are doing well with half strength nutes and full dose of hydrogaurd and calmag. Water temp is running warm at 72, going to try something new this time in addition to my wet towel remedy, which is to run dryer vent tube from ceiling vent into bottom of tent. I’ll let you know how that turns out.

Day 21. They look healthy but I feel like after seeing gmo grows I’m not feeding enough nutes? My treated water is 300 ppm which according to some charts I could be at 1200?? I asked gmo directly, anyone else chime in?

You're doing just fine. IMO, you've gotta get hydroton up to the tip top of those net pots, though. That has the potential to introduce light in to your reservoir and for algae to thrive. Seriously, it's important.

What nutrient line are you using?

Fox Farms and I’ve already got green algae. My system is MUCH less sophisticated than yours (I watched the video you provided and ty that is best dyi video I’ve seen to date) I’m obviously still in my infancy of learning but if you follow my journals I’m doing okay, you my friend are kicking ass! ❤️ it following! 👀 To save you time, my recipe is:
3ml ph down (to bring to 6.0)
10ml cal mag
5ml hydrogaurd
10ml BigBloom
5ml GrowBig
5ml TigerBloom
Untreated water is 65 ppm, treated is 300
The leaves look healthy and that’s what matters but I’m guessing lack of light has me way behind as does other factors like your spray system must oxengate and feed on optimal level! 😍
 
Net is up… first time using a trellis I have be using twisty ties for LST but this time I just topped once and we’ll see how it goes. Looking healthy so far. Day 23

Coming along… day 31
Leaves look like some burn on my gelato one on right) same recipe w/both, same growing profile so not sure why, but healthy and growing well otherwise 🙏👍

Too much or too little of what causes this? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Is 72F high? It seems that 72 would be a nice temp for cannabis but I’m not a hydro grower. I do prefer to water with a more room temperature than cold. I never knew this… I know that some hydro growers have coolers but I thought they were getting temps over 80 F for some reason. I’ve never asked hot warm their tank is…
 
The water, needs to be cooler for maximum nutrient uptake. Can’t explain the science but a few degrees can make significant difference in final yields! 🎓
 
Day 14 of 🌸 looking good 👍
