Throughout the week I slowly increase the feeding frequency. Flooding 1 time a day to as close to once every hour as I can get. I use General Hydroponics Floranova and am following the light feeding schedule from the 1 part chart. Ph is actually 5.8 and the buckets are 2.5 gallons.
day 8 9/20 - I put the plants in the pots with rocks. Just RO water from the reservoir. They definitely need nutrients soon.
day 9 9/21 - Still RO water. I will make a new reservoir for the morning with the first week of the light nutrient feeding schedule from Floranova.
day 10 9/22 - 3 floods today 380 EC - They seem to have established today and are growing faster. Monitoring the wetness of the plug.
day 11 9/23 - Seeing burning developing. The EC was only 380, I think the rocks are not clean enough.
day 12 9/24 - Part of it was from under watering. Roots need the consistent wet rocks to expand, makes sense. Increased feeding to once/hour.
day 13 9/25 - Plants are looking better with flooding every hour. Flooding regularly is leeching the salt from the rocks.
day 14 9/26 - Started the morning with a good 5 min clearex flush. Pouring water from above as well. Will swap for nutrient solution around lunch.
