Anyone tell me what this is??

[Morgosverlo]

Noticed a couple of the older fan leaf fingers look kinda weak and are folding under, other than that everything looks great. My PH is consistanly right around 6 and the solution is 3part GH nutes. They have been in this solution for about 2weeks now will flush/solution change soon.

It could be starting to lock up from over fertilizing????

I say lay back on the nutes a lil.......?

 

[luke]

could be normal could be heat stress i doubt it lack of nutes i would try some superthive and epsom salt

My setup is an upscale version of the aerogarden. 210gal pump, 2 long airstones, nutes: started 2weeks ago w/3part GH 1/4 tsp for all 3, then 1 week later topped off w/2 gal. fresh H20 each with 1tsp. of each, then have topped off since with plain water. Also I am training w/wire and egg weights. Watering scedule is manual. I turn it on about 5 times a day for about 10 to 15 min. at a time. Everything good the big fan just look a little weak but no dicoloration.

oh hydro, my first thought was, that plant is wilting, not my area, but i do know your roots look like theres a problem, a lil discolored?

the root color could just be staining from the color of the nutrients hes using

 

[DankCloset]

good call, anyway good luck man, hope you get everything figured out!

Thanks for the replys, as for the color of the roots I think when I first introduced nutes I used Alaska Fish ferts and they have been stained ever since, but the roots that are submerged are good color. I still have no idea what the drooping leaves are. I guess I will wait and see if it gets worse and then I will take action.

What is your ph? Wrong ph could be the problem. I had a similar problem and found that is was because I had not calibrated my ph meter in a long time. Now I try to do it every couple of weeks. The ph caused some nutes to be locked up.

I agree ph or too many ppms

Not sure what DWC means but I change my res every 2 weeks. Not sure what is causing this but its not getting better. The last time I changed my res was Feb 15, I used 3part GH. 5gal H20(PH 6)=5tsp.micro,5tsp grow,7tsp bloom.. Have been topping H20 when needed. Could this be caused by stress?? I have been training w/wire and egg weights. These are pics from today.

dwc, deep water culture-

how much air do you have in your rez? i think the ph could be dropped a lil but air i think your lacking. you got the nutes... the plants look good but the sagging foilage near the main vein that runs down the center of the leaf, looks to me like arreation. i would suggust buying more pumps and bubble strips. get at least one good pump not a 10 doller cheepie for goldfish. make sure you have a good meter and good phed water.

go the distance and it will payoff somehow everytime.

can you give us some more detail of the setup so we can make a better analysis of pending situation? what lights? what other ferts if any what youve done lately that might be different.....did you clean the rez and it started doing it etc.... if you think back is there anything you have/havent done that might cause it? let us know.

maybe they don't like the grapes........



i agree with TOA. i think your plants are in need of more air. I see NO aeration taking place in that pick of the resivior. airstones should be run 24/7. i use a similar setup

I woudl ditch your looooooong airstones. i have tried long ones and found the 6" to put out far more bubbles. get the largest pumps you can afford. i'm running 3 pumps each dual output to 6" stones. thats 6 stones in a container not much larger than yours. your water should be boiling on top and your roots should be all over the the place as a result. they should tangle around everthing in your resivior...

an easy fix.....lookin real good man. keep it green.

 

[allgrownup]

i don't use 3par GH....but doesn't that have to be mixed/added in a certain sequence or you get nute lock also? hard to tell from your pics but they look pretty healthy to me.....got any pics with the HPS off?

 

[Morgosverlo]

As for air I have 2 $10 cheapies w/1 small airstone directly under the root system of the MJ and one long air strip under all 3 plants withch are tomatoe plants.. could the tomato plants have anything to do with this? maybe there taking more of one nut than the other?? As for the GH solution there is a mixing sequence witch I follow. Lighting is 400hps so I think Im good there. Resivoir is setup w/210gph pump w/3 1/2" tubing running off the pump up to the baskets. I have been doing a little training and pruning(cutting big fan leaves blocking light)is the cutting bad? Could it be stress?? I will post pics later w/out hps. Gotta go to work. Thanks for the feedback.
