Hey @Chris20,

Have fun at the beach! As @Fresh stated above, the notifications are time based reminders, you can drain/fill when you want, as long as it is done every week, it can be a day or two early or late in a pinch. Nice looking early veg plant there!!

Cheers,
Stephen

Day 18!

4 days away and I get this amazing surprise. This plant is growing so fast.
Should I take out the bottom leaves? They are a little yellow. Any advise? See picture bellow.

Topped it.
I was counting nodes and I was starting to see the sixth node so I topped right now!

Topping it right on time and the plant looks healthy and happy. When 50 percent or more turns brown pull it off.

Roots look fine. Keep them out of the light as much as possible as they don’t like it. I would say hydroguard or some sort of beneficial bacteria should be used with your water temps as high as they are.

I added hydro guard last water change and will be adding from now on.
Any solution available to keep water temp down? A link for a good water chiller?

Also can anybody post that picture with all symptoms and colors the leaf change?

This is the chiller I use for my tent, but they make a smaller one, 16 gal I think. And if those were your bottom fan leaves you’re fine. It’s when ALL your leaves are experiencing the same thing that you need to be worried.

Thanks a lot!

growweedeasy.com main splash page in the middle is 3 select-able fields. I think its green, yellow red and one says “Trouble shoot your plants” Or “Plant issues”
They have photos of every possible thing that could go wrong to your plant. I do reference it for users on the forums as my problems are consistently the same ones, so not so much variation, but with photos you can for sure figure it out.

TBH, those look like a combination of things. My guess is a bit of nutrient burn (which is normal the way the roots float in the water) but also some water on the leaves that maybe burnt them. I wouldn’t be concerned with a few leaves like that. However now is the point to make sure all your bottles are dispensing and do a pinch test (test each hose into the bottle, in through the metal and anywhere EASILY accessible) and pinch or adjust the tip ever so slightly incase a blockage occurred. This was my recent problem on my plant and i caught it early enough it bounced right back.
