yea I feel like the root tech sucks too.........I might suck also but i dont think its helping me. You have convinced me to try clonex also.

As always your plants look amazing! Congrats on them clones again!

Hi guys, thanks for subbing up.

Just a note to everyone, I decided last minute to go to the cottage this weekend so no update tonight, sorry. Sunday night I'll change out the reservoirs and do the update then.

Hi everyone.

Tonight was reservoir change night so its also update time.

The plants are doing very well, the Critcals are on day 16 of flower now, and there are baby buds all over the plants. The stretch seems to be slowing down now, and the beginnings of trichomes are visible on the leaves. The bottom of the plants were killing themselves off on both Critical plants, I attribute this to being under feed nutrients a little, and also the lack of light under the canopy. I cleaned up the bottom of the plants a little, but will do a more complete job around day 21 of flower next Friday.

Critical Stats

PPM= 575
PH= 6.0
Air Temp= 82F
Water Temp= 76F
RH= 64%

The OG is doing better now, the roots have recovered for the most part and I'm seeing new growth at the top of the plant, so that's good news. I also added my two most healthy Critical clones into the reservoir with the OG Kush. I'm gonna give that closet another two weeks of veg growth and then flip to 12/12 regardless of whether the plants have all hit the screen of not. I'm anxious to get my rotation set properly.

OG Kush Stats

PPM= 460
PH= 6.0
Air Temp= 80F
Water Temp= 76F
RH= 47%

Finally, I worked on my veg area a little tonight. Apart from putting two of the Critical clones into the OG Kush closet, I put the remaining two clones into solo cups with some Pro-Mix Starter coco for seedlings and cuttings. The clones all had roots coming out the bottom or the sides of the netcups, so they were ready. The Pro-mix has a mild nutrient content to keep the plants going til I'm ready to put them into the closets. I have 1 Sour Diesel, 1 Bubbleicious, 1 Pineapple Chunk, 1 mystery freebie, and 2 Critical, all from seed except for the two Critical clones.

That's it for another week, things are coming along well. Next update on Friday, I hope you all have a great week.
Questions and comments are always welcome, stay medicated my friends.

Good stuff, Looking great as always!

Quick question. When or how often do you run your top feeders. 24/7, 15 min in 15 min off?

Hi Robert, thanks man.
To answer your question, I don't run the top feed at all.
I ran them the first couple of grows for 15 mins, 4 times a day, but as soon as the roots hit the water the plants no longer need the top feed.
Now I don't use it at all, cause by the time I put the seedlings/clones into the reservoirs the roots are in the res water already so no need for the top feed.

Ok that pretty much was my conclusion, i have shut the top feeders down on the blue dream, also how high do you keep your water? at the net cups? 1 inch below?

Hey Stealth Looks Great

Mahalo Chronic, I'm trying to copy your style (on a smaller scale) of having a good vegging garden. You always have plants ready to go into flower and you harvest often, that's what I'm aiming for.

Everything looks great in there Stealth!!

Thank you Greenthumb, the Critical is growing very well, and showed pistils early. She's really stacking nicely.
