Hello 420Magazine people,
I am currently running a Deep Water Culture/Aeroponics Flow and Drain System.
I have 4 clones in one reservoir. Water is about 1 inch from the bottom of planters. Two air stones and a big air pump making things nice n bubbly in there. Its like a 15-20 gallon blue container with a lid.
3 Ice Cream clones from Paradise Seeds and 1 Candy Purple clone. Roots have not hit water yet, still trying to come out of the Rockwool cube. You can see the roots, just not sticking out yet...I just bought them 3/17 around 7:30pm.
I am using Supernatural Brand Aqua Powder, and Rhizotonic for my veg stage. Using 1/4 newts for now.
All this is in a closet 3.5ftX3.5ft and about 8-9 ft tall. Two coats of Mold Resistant White paint.
I run the water pump three times a day for 10 minutes. PH is around 5.8-6.2, I am using a PH Test Kit. It looks lightly brown and yellow, like piss.
I have only one light for now its a Eye Hortilux Blue 400 Watt MT400D/HOR/HTL-Blue. With a Yield Master II Classic Reflector about 4 feet away hanging on chains from the top of the clones with good air circulation. Temp has been at about 80-82 degrees I can make it a little cooler by opening the closet door a little more. Not sure about humidity, I will have to get a gauge this weekend. I have two bowl style cups full of water next to the plants.
I have had the lights on since 3/17/10 at 9pm and they are still on today at 10:35 pm 3/18/10 today.
I was thinking of letting them go on a veg cycle 24/0 schedule.
1. What do you all recommend for my veg lighting schedule?
2. Is 82 degrees OK? I have not gotten around to making my exhaust system yet, will have to wait for another week.
Thanks for any assistance. I will get pics up asap.
