so i was just in there checking the roots out and it seems they havent really been growing much and i think i found some root rot,there was a little mushy bunch of roots at the bottom of the net pot.

I thought the flush and aquashield & H2o2 were suposta take care of that shit???

Dam looking real good in there.
So which ones have the rot maybe I can help? I have used aquashield with really good results. The reason its not working is you killed off all the good bacteria with the h202. You have to use the aquashield all by its self.
Try that and let me know
Good luck BG

well i added aquashield a couple days ago a day or 2 after doin the h202,so i'll wait a couple more days then add just AS,on a side note roots are starting to do something good maybe that last AS top of is working like you said.

So once i hook the chiller up do i still need to use H2o2 and AS? or do i stop the H2o2 and stick with AS?

oh and the one i found the slimy stuff on was the one closest to the rez on the right if your standing at the res,i pulled it off when i found it,i should have took a pic. but i threw it away asap and cleaned it as much as i saw anyway, thats when i added a fatty dose of AquaShield and i think it worked but we'll see what happens here in this next week.

The screen is going up monday afternoon gonna set it at 15" so i'll have to bend/pull under the net,after that hopefully 3 weeks or so will be enough to fill cuz i gotta flip 3 1/2 weeks max.

Looks good so far man, love the videos Hopefully the rot stays away!

 

[Dr. Green Thumb]

AgentSmith:thanks dude and yeah hope that shit stays away for sure,it loos like theres been some decent progress.

Dr. Green Thumb:apreciate kind words,the vids are cool and i'll probable make another one in the next couple days

I have used both and the h202 has never worked for me. It might work be for you have it but once you have it ya need something else. The aquashield has always worked for me. I grew in 80f-90f with no chiller and got root rot and the aquashield battled it off with no problems just keep adding it in every week at 10 ml per gallon. Your gonna want to use it the rest of the grow even when you get the chiller just to make sure the shit doesnt screw your grow.
Good luck BG

hey thanks dude,i apreciate it alot!!! so i guess i'll use the H2o2 for cleanin shit out. and i'll have to get a bigger bottle of Aquashield too been using a couple tiny sample bottles i got.

 

[BigGreen]

16 gallons mix in 10.5 tbls every 7 to 10 days and watch the root rot go bye bye.

 

[green_thumb...]

very nice,iv been adding like 49ml every 3-4 days dont know if that comes close to 10tbls,anyway thats what i will do because it seems thats working pretty well so far just having the AS in there, should be ordering my chiller today a Eco Plus 1/4hp should do the trick and i think im gonna try out one of those ice boxes and a light mover for my 1k for bloom. itl either be a light mover and 1k or 2k flipped every 2 hrs during the 12 on.

what do you think?gotta figure something out soon because they are growing fast approching 16"tall today gonna get the screen up today and set it at 15" or so.

 

[BigGreen]

If ya can just run the 2k the entire light cycle you will be glad ya did. If ya grow it right you should be able to pull around 2-2.5 #s with ease maybe 3#s if ya baby them. Just get the chiller and drop the 2k on em.\

well that was 1k ballast hooked up to a flip box goin to 1k over each 4x4 flipping every 2hrs while the 12hr on cycle,you think that would be better than having 1k over a 4x4 and 600w over the other 4x4 on for the whole 12hrs? i'll do what ever gets me a bigger yield cuz yall know i need one bad...

 

[green_thumb...]

well heres another vid,let me know whats you guys think???

[unclefishstick]

nice!

 

[green_thumb...]

hey thanks dude. with all my problems im almost thinking fuck it and pull the screen off for this run but i dont wana hurt my chances at a higher yield, what should i do?

 

[BigGreen]

You could pull it of and train the shit out of em. Like lst or super cropping that helps yields as well. Then you can still look at the roots in the bucket. I dont scrog now I just use the screen for support later.
Sweet video man plants looking really nice

 

[green_thumb...]

thanks BG,so yeah i'll just pull the screen down tonight and save it for when i get shit dialed in good enough to where i dont have to look in at the roots all the time.

and maybe i'll flip in the next couple weeks then should be interesting,also what do you think i should do with my lighting?? in stock i have a 600w hps,1k hps & 2 bulbs,a 400w hps,and 2 flipboxes. the 600w and 1k are over them now 600w over the hydro and 1k over the soil,would it be best to just keep it that way or flip the 2 1k bulbs during the 12hr on?

id really like some input on this i only have 2 aircooled hoods and id like to not have to hang any bare bulbs as my rooms hot enough.
