I am growing in Hydrocorn. Everytime I take the small rooted plants (rooted in 1 inch rockwool)and transplant them to the stone bed, they go yellow with purple stocks, and are stunted. Once I get them past the first few weeks (whatever survives!), or 8 inches, they seem to go just fine, but are thin in the stem from being stunted.
I have heard many opinions on what the PH should be in this medium, but would like another opinion. I was told between 5.5 & 5.8....I have mine set at 5.7. Today another person who seems to do pretty well at this, told me between 6.2 & 6.5 Any answers please? Another point. My EC right from the tap is at .750. this seems a little high. Yes\no????
Thanks all

Dig the chart GG, but I gotta say, I had better results running a bit lower, as I just posted in another thread from FC, although the last grows I did were mostly aero in nature. Maybe that's the diff....????hmmmm (got me thinking now)
