It rolls up in your finger like lint.

My PH is 5.8 in the tank and when I checked the trays today it was 6.0What Moe said yesterday was that when I first start adding the micro to the water my waters ph was too high and the minerals were separating out....So I lowered the ph to 6.96 below 7 was the goal before I added the micro...I'm not sure yet as I said but what I see now is more cloudy than it was. After I lowered my water to 6.96 I added the nutes in order then after all the nutes were in the ph was 5.86 and I though that was too low for me so I added 2ml/gal ph up after diluting it first in my well water.
I'm not sure lowering it then raising it with acids and alkali 's work well in conjunction with all my nutes and well water. It maybe tricky to get it all balanced......gee's its a good thing I got nothing better to do...lol
No I keep lights out in that room all the time.Can light get into your res Kuwl?
I'm going down not to check the tank temp as I am wondering if it's the water temp in the tankNo I keep lights out in that room all the time.
From reading it seems they come in brown or red which would match our description.Still thinking that looks like diatoms.
They don't need light but use it if possible.
Lookin good, I could go for that now,I likes the hot sauce, Franks is a bit mild for me but its a good starter sauce to begin with. I eat the Ghost pepper/ Carolina Reaper sauce...just a drop or 2 will do at a time but I likes it hot, hotter the better in small dosesCooking with Kuwl
I Cook some good stuff
Here it is, enjoy!
Kuwl's Chicken Finger Recipe
2 gal zip lock bags. one for 2 cups of flour and 1 for 4 packs of crackers.
Crush the crackers to medium fine, 1/4 the size of a dime or less.
1 large bowl for 4 eggs beaten.
12 or more chicken tenders.
Dip in flour, then egg then cracker crumbs.
Press in cracker bag till crackers stick until tender is coated on all parts
Heat oil in deep fryer till 365 degrees.
Fry for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown.

All you need now is Franks Hot Sauce and Blue Cheese and Celery.

He is kuwl to be here either way...roll onNobody who got banned today deserved it.
Hopefully we can make this as good or better for you all.
Kuwl just joined today so I think he knew what is going on.
Glad to see ya here.I really hate starting over again but it is what it is.
Not that I have to or anything but help is getting thin so we'll give it a go here @ Budbuilders.
No time to post stuff now but will tomorrow.
In a nutshell:
I am using a Auto Pot System with a 4x4 Vivosun roof tent.
MarsHydro FC4800 light and Spider-Farmer 6" controller exhaust and 4" controller intake fans.
Growing a QC Blue, Fruity OG, Sour Diesel-(SD went to seed so now it a Cookie Monster) and
2 plants that were thrown in there late, 2-3 weeks late, Wedding Cake and Durban Poison
One is in with the 4 Pot Auto Pots (2.2 gal.) and the other is a stand alone in a 3 gal cloth pot.
The 3 in AP's (SD, F OG, QC B) are 8 weeks into flower.
One Plant Dos Si Dos was a Male and was destroyed, that's when I put the WC in it's place.
Thanks for the compliment Bandit!I'm loving your work in the garden and kitchen Kuwl!
Chicken tenders look outstanding!
I've been upping my fried chicken game doing a pickle juice marinade and air frying but I'm damn sure gonna steal your recipe.
Sharing the love on hot sauces too. Ghost and Carolina Reaper can be too hot for me but I love some Cholula especially the green. I use so much of that I buy it in 64oz jugs.
63rh is still good id say, and temp is under 70 at leastSour Diesel, 1 week in the drying tent
Tent Temp 67.5 Hummi 63.5
Hummi is very high but can't think of anything I can do to remidy it.
But it is looking pretty good and might be ready by the time Fruity OG is harvested.
I hope.

Soil mix with coco coir and perlite and clay ballswell if youre using organic inputs and microbes, h2o2 and bleach will cancel those out (?), are you using a soil mix?
and using liquid feed?
i gotta scroll through
so kinda hyrbid, till the soil is depleted.Soil mix with coco coir and perlite and clay balls
Liquid feed Dyna Gro Products
It's a gravity feed system that feeds the pots in a valve operated tray from the res tank.
About 25% coco, 10% Perlite, 25% clay balls and the rest is a soil mix. in a 2.2 gal pot.You do coco right?
The socks are new I got them with my last order, the 2.2 gal systemHow do you keep the roots out of the valve? That's been my issue but that was a decade ago.
Thanks for the input everyone.Dyna grow is a good simple product… just so you are aware it synthetic so you dont need to worry about microbes if you choose to go sterile. How long are you keeping a res? Longer than 3 days with aoil mixed in you will prob see issues from the organics. If you remove the soil from the mix you can do live or sterile. In your case as it sits sterile as suggested may be the way to go for now. Organics in water is a pita indoors
I've not used much nutrient lines so far but from what I've heard and triedThanks for the input everyone.
Can I ask if there is a better choice of nutrient products to use as I am wrapping this grow up and I’m thinking about changing Nutrients for another auto Pot grow.
I know there are a lot out there,
PipeCarver uses General Hydroponics I believe
And was thinking of going that way for this type of grow.
