    Default Growing with dwc

    Am 5 weeks into flowering an some of my plants aren't forming buds properly. My ec is at 1.3 my pH is at 6. It's my second grow with the dwc an seem to be getting the same problems with my buds. It's only happening with half the plants. Will up the one that isn't budding properly an one that is. Click image for larger version.

    Well at 5 weeks into flower is when the plant usually starts to fatten up. Are you giving her Canna PK?

    From the pictures everything lookes normal IMO

    What light do you use ?

    Are they seeds or clones ? If seeds some just don’t perform like we would like,just a dodgy pheno.
    Are the plants affected in the same place as last time ?

    They are seeds, have 2 hps an 2 LEDs. And the plant was in the same place as last time that struggled. Is there any chance it's nutrient block or don't you get that in dwc system

    2 plants under 2 HPS and 2 leds ? What’s the wattage on those?

    Is one plant under hps and vice versa ?

    What is the EC of your water ?


    The plant looks healthy and very frosty.But if you think you have a problem that happens repeatedly in the same place then maybe check your airlines water temps,Is one plant nearer an input,getting cold etc etc,just try to narrow down the culprit.
    But like I say if it’s a seed it could just be pheno related.

    I have 2 600w hps's and 2 1000w LEDs. Got 3 plants under hps an 3 under the LEDs. Water ec is 0.3 and got the water at 20 degree's. Might be the seeds just Haven't been growing in the dwc for long just making sure it's not something am doing. It's the second plant from the intake.

    Imho water needs to be around 18 degrees no higher and your ph needs to swing from around 5.6 to 6.2
    This allows a wider range of available nutrients to the plants
