Waterlogged? You do have a 1/2" hole in the side of the bucket, don't you? In the 2 gal bucket it should be 1" from the bottom. In the 5 gal bucket, it should be 1 1/2"- to 2" from the bottom. I personally have tried 100% to 60% perlite buckets. I found that it doesn't give the girl enough support when she gets bigger...they tend to tip over, unless you have yard or something helping hold her up..cheers

Stears is beginning to sprout.

I've been growing in hempys for the last ~6 months, and my water is around 600-700ppm and 7.5 ph before nutes.
I had many pH and nutrient lockout issues in soil, but in hempys it went great (didn't flush them once), so I don't think that caused the female to die.

I did notice they dry out very fast, and there were times I had to water daily or they would start to wilt.
