ACE stuff in DWC. Any trick and advice ?

[Tovaritx]

Hi fellas!I have always heard that sativas are delicate with EC and ph. I would like to know if anyone has any advice or trick for sativas and hydroponics since I do not find much information about it. thank you! I have some panama x Banghii and i afrad to kill thm

I had good luck with Green Haze x Malawi and CBG Destroyer in a 26 gallon DWC.. really had no issues at all till the end of flowering due to timer malfunction but was still a success in my eyes..
I run organic living soil during summer outside
But Hydro inside over the winter basically for the yield..

Go for it I say.. i have no tricks except I would Scrog them....mine were medium feeders..

Good luck.. but you'll do fine I'm sure..!

did malawi x caribe in a DWC checked my tap water ph once for the whole grow, thats it,,,used GH nutes as directed on the label. KISS

Here's my trick: don't ever stop checking that pH and adjusting it when necessary. That's really the only "trick" you need in any kind of hydro, and not just DWC: pH matters more than anything else. Other than that, plants grow themselves and no tricks are necessary.

In the decades that I've been almost exclusively a hydro grower, I can confidently say that pH problems are what fuck most things up. Hands down. More often than not, when I see people posting pics of their hydro plants and asking what nutrient the plant is deficient in, the answer is "several," because the actual problem is with pH.

So that's my advice. Take it or leave it.

I grow karma headbanger now ( i have a empty bucket waoting for panghi) and every time my ph stay in 6.2, i use ph fown canna grow and next day stay other tome in 6,2 so.. i dont touch any more Because i think its a signal if EVER up to 6,2 and. Thanks all fellas for the answers.

Read what hush said in post #4. Then read it again. If you have any issues then follow what hush said first. Calibrate your meter often in the beginning so you can know for sure that your pH is correct. I've killed a lot of plants with a meter that wasn't calibrated.

I like my pH to swing, 5.2 to 5.9, but I aim for 5.5-5.6. My plants start to slow down over 6.0.

My medium is 50/50 lava rock and screened kitty litter(calcined clay).

I'm using a modified ppk system so I'm not sure how much of what I do for pH applies to other systems.

For pH up I use agsil16(silica) and phosphoric acid for pH down. Nutrients are Jack's and calnit.

Like to Add I was just running to waste,,,meaning once a week I just dumped nutes and started fresh...just top up with plain water inbetween...that easy

Thank you all for chime in to help Tovaritx .... btw welcome!

As we commented to you via email, we at ACE are 100 % soil organic growers so sorry i cannot help you much about DWC specifics. Overall Panama x Bangi Haze works best with soft/moderate nitrogen levels, and we only recommend to provide her with higher PK levels from 4th-5th week of flowering onwards. If you post the progresses of your grow then i'm sure we will be able to detect any problem that could arise. Best wishes!

I use just zeolite (3-6mm) .. I think the high pH comes because the tap water comes out at 7.8. or perhaps by zeolite in theory "regulates" the ph and interferes in some way in the nitric acid. Thank you all for the and dubi for the attention! I will try to start with low levels and I will inform to see how they go panghi in DWC I'm new to this indoor and my English is a little "unga unga" .. I hope not to upset anyone


Respect and hope u have a nice day

Incorrect ph can cause various problems
