Oh Shit.
Turns out the emitter in my large tote stopped working. Some of the roots had a nice glob of snot on them. Washed off and soaked them in H2O2 . Dumped nutes. Heard from O2G that I only need half normal nute strength now using the emitter that was in the single plant bucket

I asked O2G if I could use Lime Away that also removes Calcium and Rust. Instead of responding to that, they sent me a new emitter.
This morning I sprayed the screen with the Lime Away and it seems to be working fine
Also this morning I notice a curled up baby caterpillar on the plastic cover of one plant. I have no idea where it came from, but, I dunked them all in h2o2

The article (url below) expresses why I bought the O2G BUT the info in this article and elsewhere was not available then and is not available on the O2G website. So, when I first attempted using it, I did so in combination with air pumps stones thereby shooting myself in the foot, actually both feet.
Finally, late in this grow I took the plunge and removed the air stones: ZERO water circulation or agitation, and the O2G definitely works, it's just that these plants were/are barely alive, so it's too late for them to produce nice buds. Since I choose to plant on a new moon I am letting these continue until the first week of August.

Prior to O2G shipping me a new emitter, I tried cleaning the one that didn't work (didn't help), and decided to clean the other one too.
I should have realized all the root rot snot in the rez would clog the working emitter, cause after cleaning it, it put out a ton more microbubbles and this morning the plants responded by perking up.

Nutes were cloudy and pH was almost 9 so I ade fresh nutes and cleaned the crap out of the tote, and put new heavy duty foil on the lid as there was a fair amount of discoloration, which was probably just dried nutes, but not taking any chances. I also soaked the roots in ~ 3% h202 then washed then back into the rez. This morning pH was high again. Perplexing

Can O2Grow Replace Pumps and Stones?
https://www.o2grow.com/ I am an experimenter as much as a medical cannabis grower for very high blood pressure. Consequently, I grow for very light personal use only, so I don't need to produce large harvests, though it would be nice to grow enough to carry me between harvests, and to hook up a...
