Great White Shark Attack

right now at the 280pms i'm 1/4 strength of the formula. if i don't see an improvement in the next couple days i'm going to add more nutes to bring it up to 3/4 strength. and if that does nothing and or makes it worse even then plan B is to dump it all out and try a different line of nutes.
Yeah let 'em ride for another week or so. I'd say that if we don't see improvement on the redness but the burns simmer down... flip them bitches and run this lineup through flower. Add just a little calmag when you flip.
 
one other thing i've been wanting to do. i have new filters i bought and have been meaning to replace the one in there now. if it changes the PPM at all from old to new i'll let y'all know. i really honestly don't remember how old it is. when i replace the sink one i take that old one and pug it into the ice maker line, this line is where i get my hydro water from. i'm going to put a brad new filter in the ice maker line and see if it reduces any PPM's at all..

oh... and i'll write the date on the new filter!!!! hahha
 
i changed the filter out and the PPM's didn't change at all. water comes out a whole lot faster though!!! but... sumbitch, stickers!!!!!

i thin they're improving.. i need to strip the bottoms a little and promote top growth. i think i'm going to start ramping the lights back up. i'm currently at 25-25-25 both lights, so abouts 200w total.

EC and ph has not moved once and i've done nothing but pluck a few leaves.. as far as ease of use and price i don't think i can beat this setup one bit.

i just need to get my water tested so we know what i'm dealing with here and i thing that could help a bunch.

i cranked it up yesterday.. more nutes, now 490ppm from 280, lights up to 40% from 25...

twenty four later and no changes... they drank more in the past day ten they have in three days before so thats a good sign.

plants are still growing... still having slight issues but it is for sure much better. without using any calmag or buffer it has made the solution very steady and just making it easier and better for the plants.

i am now on full strength lucas formula im not sure of the EC, i think its around 720 or something.. higher than i've ever gone before. i haven't been watching it all. it's either gonna work or it's not so i' not gonna bother watching anything. i think it was friday that i drained the system (minus the plant sites and plumbing (less than one gallon)) mixed up a clean new batch with fresh water, this was the first time since plugging in the new filter cartridge. i put in 30 gallons of well water, 150ml of micro and 300ml of bloom nutes and that was it. ph was 5.7 when it went in, it was also cold around 58° so i waited for the heater to bring it up to 70° and the ph was at 5.8. a few days later and it's still at 5.8 so i didn't bother checking the ec everyday. in a few days if it's still improving i'll put in some mr humic and mix up a batch of top off to match. if it's not improving or good enough to me i'm gonna switch nutes quick. it will be one of the two i already have, either nova or jack's and i'm leaning nova right now. kinda hoping i won't need to decide..

the newest growth is the best looking on the plant so i have some hope...
