Hydro-A-No-Go
So I am pretty sure that I have lost all my hydro gals....
I am not sure how or why either. The ph was stable. Added chemicals on Monday (like usual), gave it the amounts posted in feeding schedule on this site, same nutes, made sure. They were alright yesterday morning, they had a little bit of what I thought was that "rust" that ISO was dealing with... I went to work, came back over my lunch break (i am lucky enough to work only 5 minutes away from my apt), they were still good, looked healthy minus the rust spots. I then went back to work, came home at 5pm and they were almost gone. They were all wilted and hanging down and discolored. Have no idea what could have caused this... One of my fans was off for a bit, but the exhaust is still strong even with that one fan not on. So I think I may hang up the hydro hat for a bit and just start another soil grow. I think that my inexperience can be dealt with in soil (man my soil ladies are tough), but hydro is just to delicate for me at the moment. I am very happy that I took the advice that many of you gave me to do soil first! At least I have 4 soil plants now two weeks into flowering and are doing awsome. So I think today after work I am going to start germinating more seeds. Gonna grow the Blue Mystic and Ice still, just in soil this time...
So all in all it was a good and humbling experience. It made me realize that I dont know as much as I thought I did... I am now just ready to move on and get another soil grow under way. Cant wait to get some of these Ice and BM to bud!
Hope All is Well
