Not anymore. Use to do DWC. Now just soil.

So I got this 2x2x4 going in a 6 gallon Roots farm rdwc system that I converted to add a chiller but after about six weeks this chiller finally crapped out on me I've had it for about three years just $100 aquarium chiller but my plants seem to still be doing fine I added a AirStone it's just that I know that it's completely counterintuitive that the roots are going to be warmer now that it's flowering time instead of cooler all I'm using right now is clear Rez maxibloom Cal mag and some King cola after about two years of repeated failures trial and error with different DIY systems I'm finally lead to this point week 3 of flowering it's been so damn crowded that I've had to almost defoliate every single dayI went ahead and strap the branches to the corners to open up the entire plant and it looks a lot better now

 

[WeedHopper]

Looks good.

 

[Ohiogrower420]

Looks good.

Getting there do you have any information about what I mentioned earlier about the roots temps and flowering hydroponiclly?

 

[WeedHopper]

Sorry bro must have over looked that question.
I always tried to keep my solution temps below 70 degrees are my roots would turn yellow. If temps got to high i would get some slime. I didn't have a chiller so i used frozen water bottles.
That's one of the reasons i like soil i didn't have to worry about solution temps anymore.

That's what I'm saying also without the chiller it's actually doing better it's blowing my mind

 

[WeedHopper]

Whats the temp of your solution that the roots are in?

And one of my seedlings are yellowing and drooping a little I think due to over watering I been trying to keep it pretty wet for the bacteria to reproduce a little
