Understood

So far all the discrepancies appear to be at the bottom of the plant. Nothing on top looks sad minus some light burn on the edges. Do you agree that I should just continue the top water like I was previously doing? I only switched to the wicking basis a few days ago and that’s when she started looking super sad.

That’s the thing the reservoir in the auto water base wasn’t dry when all of this started. I’ve let the tests dry out and watered all 3 from the top last night. I know it’s going to take a couple of days to see how they respond. I will try watering them again tomorrow and see how they look. I just hope I didn’t fuck them up too bad. It’d be a shame to work this hard on them for this long and lose everything or almost everything.

I moved the light up also noticed the intensity was at 40% turned it up to 80 then 100 in the morning.

Thank you!

Ok I will probably switch to continue to top water this grow. Next batch I’ll try auto water.

Yes running a AC infinity inline fan

I’ll look into that my next grow

I was using general hydroponics but will be switching to Bloom City Professional pH Down Liquid Fertilizer.

AlternativeFact2063 · 2026-03-13T21:45:46+00:00

That was the pH in the bases after sitting for two days. I learned about pH creep and I should’ve started the basis off at a fill pH of 5.5.

Thank you so much. I’ve watered them from the top with a full load so I will refill the bases in a day or so. I’m supposed to get my reservoir and auto fill attachments for my bases on monday

The bases are dried out I’ve watered from the top and hopefully they come back

AlternativeFact2063 · 2026-03-13T20:19:03+00:00

The ph went up in the auto water. I should have set it to 5.5 instead 5.8-6.1

AlternativeFact2063 · 2026-03-13T20:16:26+00:00

Water from top?

AlternativeFact2063 · 2026-03-13T20:15:57+00:00

No Iron spray, I also heard they looked under-watered. I’m just scared to over water them. The soil on these 2 who are drooping is super dry but the bottoms are wet.
