TRIXTA's Glog

G'day Trixta. A couple of things that I'd change if I were you. Firstly you are correct to turn your pumps of at night but you shouidn't be turning off your fans. Plants still respire in their night cycle. Second thing would be to get yourself a digital timer and reduce your feeding times to one minute five times a day. By overwatering you are forcing oxygen out of your medium and strangling your plants roots.

G'day Flipscott, cheers for your advice, I will try having pump on for five 1 minute intervals, even though haven't really had any problems with overwatering doesn't mean I can't improve, I have heard of this 1 minute feeds before so I will give it a crack. In regards to having the fan blowing into and on canopy during the rest cycle I would have thought that you want to try and simulate the outdoors ,the rest period is just that. As the Plants will only use co2 when lights are on and reversed at night, plants will utilise the oxygen only at rest, what is your advise against the extractor fan being on at rest, I heard that it can cause fox tailing if you replace to much co2 during the rest period on flower, cheers flippscott and hope to here back from you, take it easy.
