Droop is caused by over /under water. 3x in one day is definately too much. I was talking about the solution possibly being too strong due to the coloration of the leaves.

Whether you need Ca/Mg or not depends on what you're water is and how much is in your base nutrient.

Clear ex is to reduce salt accumulation, right? Do you know if it raises ec?

Looking good sturgeon, as usual. Always a pleasure to see em in action.

i filled up jugs at the glacier water re-fill thing or whatever premium drinking water is called haha, that what i should be using not sdistilled anymore right? and i just started using my system so i shoudnt have any kind of salt right? once again just noob questions just triple checking im not messing something up ya know?:thank you:

Id just go straight tap water if your city water is halfway decent. I dont distill or anything i just hookup the hose yo the facet, fill and feed lol. Dont over think it. If your worried about salt buildup you can do a top feed flush of straight h20 and clearex at wster changes. I used to but didnt notice enough difference..

Looks a little overfed, dark leaves, tips Brown/burnt, leaves curling down. The curling can happen from over watering, but that's more of a droop. You'll see all those differences soon enough and learn to recognize.

I highly recommend getting a TDS/EC meter, and if you have city water to request a water quality report.


yeah i just picked up a meter..ill let you know what it says...and im def guilty of overfeeding ill dial back

Ec is like a universal reading, if its in ppm, theres a .5 scale and i think it's a .7 . What is your water at before adding anything??
