1200 Watts Of Quantum Boards, DWC: Nyx's Grow

I havent posted since the dark ages when all I had was a 200 watt burple light. No one wants to see unnatrually colored plants, so I eventually gave up on posting till I could afford a better setup.
Long gone are the days of the cardboard/tucktape closet, instead I now have a 8x12 shed. Roughly 350~ CFM.


Im using the entire Future Harvest line, 18 gallon rubbermaids each with one of my self crossed automatic "Peach schnapps" (LSD25 x NYCD-AUTO), and 1200 watts of quantum boards running lm301b's.

There is a 100cfm intake fan pulling air from inside the house and through a duct. On the opposite side of the shed the air is pulled through a charcoal filter and exhausted, its a 4" filter adapted to a 8" 400cmf fan.


My last run was just finishing off when I started this one. I had one plant left from a dirt grow and just placed the hydroponic tubs with their respective seedlings on either side of it. To start I only had 800 watts of panels up.



August 1st,
I pop the seeds a few days apart in a ziplock with papertowel.

I didnt take a picture of that so here is a closeup of the dirt plant.

August 6th,

Seeds finally pop and I set up the tubs and pop one of the seeds in.

August 12th,

I mix full strength late veg mix into my water at this point along with 40mls of calmag, 18mls of potassium silicate, and 10mls carboblast. My hydroplants start in dirt pots before letting their roots grow into the water from the bottom. I pop the other seed now so there will be a staggered harvest.

October 31st,

All buds are off the first plant. Check out those roots.
Buckets a lil nasty but not bad for 0 water changes for an entire grow. I let the fungi in the water do the work.
First plant gave me a pound and a half. No complaints here.

November 1st,

Same day, wondering whether to top with Phed water or some more late flower nutrients. When do you guys stop adding fertilizer?
I seem to always let go too early.
