Water change today for the big girl. (I think it’s a girl, pics!)
The roots are doing this nonsense, and there is either plant matter or nutrient precipitate as sediment.
I was going to try and trim the roots, but my husband was over my shoulder while I was checking on them and he thinks she looks good, and I shouldn’t mess with it.
I did change the bucket to a sanitized bucket with fresh nutes. I mixed up a stronger batch, 30mL each bloom/grow/micro in 4 gal water. pH adjusted to 5.8 and tested ppm at 550.
I read a suggestion on feeding to check ppm, then 24 hours later check again and use the change to guide your nutrient schedule. I’m not marrying this suggestion, but I will check ppm in 24 hours and see what happens.
The root in Bagler has just now touched down on the water. Her bucket looks great, but I am going to read up for moving forward. I’ve been pHing her water, it doesn’t move hardly any, as it’s just misting stones. Right now the water is a 15ml/4 gal micro/grow/bloom solution I mixed on Sunday with brita-ed well water. The reservoir looks clean and ready to go, ppm is 350. I’m going to research ppm suggestions for her stage of growth and make sure I’m on track and then let her.grow and observe.
The seed I popped is struggling to tail, the heat mat I use is likely going out, as I’m getting terrible temperature swings. I’m about to put the next seeds in the egg incubator. I’ll see what happens over the next few days, but I’m likely going to pop another.
