Hi everyone, so I used to grow in soil but decided to give hydroponics a shot as seeing the results and possibilities just blew my mind. Anyway I thought it would be a good idea and put my grow journal here in hopes not only that others can see it and follow along etc but if I make any mistakes as I go someone can see it too. Anyway enjoy and lets begin.
I am using:
Lights
2x 300w CFL
system
21L DWC system
Nutes
Dutch Pro A+B Grow/Hydro/HardWater
Strain
Feminized Blueberry Cheesecake
Formula
52.5ml Part A
52.5ml Part B
ph 6
# Notes #
10/1/16 (Week 1-2 Seedling)
Installed M-01BC into 21L single-site DWC System.
24/1/16 (Week 1-2 Veg Begin)
Replaced nutes and cleaned out res.
2/2/16 (Week 3 Veg)
Changed and cleaned res
10/2/16 (Week 4 Veg)
Changed and cleaned out res/nutes. Now using experimental formula (52.5ml)
(Week 4.5 Veg) 14/2/16 Inspection
Spun plant around, checked health, humidity, temps etc took some shots for grow journal too. Also bought a heater for temp issues. Delivery on Tuesday
# Some more notes #
- 21L DWC single-site System starting with standard dutch pro formula.
- Switched to my experimental formula about 1 month into veg due to nute burn.
- Slow growth @ W4-veg due to combination of earlier nute burn + cold weather.
- Inspection mid w4-veg, growth seems to have picked up again with my new formula.
All in all its coming on nicely. I noticed the standard dutch pro nute formula was too much so took it down about 60% so new formula is now:
250ml nutes / 100 liter H2O = 2.5ml nutes per 1 liter of H2O * 21liter = 52.5ml nutes per 21 liter H2O
Within only a few days new growth had picked up again and plant was visibly healthier. You can see that in the inspection shot I took. If anyone has any tips or advice for me I would love to hear about it. Also I hope I help other new comers to DWC too. I will post updates as I go. My plan is to grow this mother enough to clone 8 times and install em into 2x 4-site 21L DWC system for main grow and maybe get some training going and a scrog perhaps.
