2 L DWC-H Test Grow OneLove

[tiptopper]

One more thing i just thought about. U may want to mix ur dilute water at half tap water and half distilled water (r/o) so u dont loose too much of ur cal.mg concentration in ur mix while u are dilluting. Unless u have a cal.mg supplement that u can add while dilluting ur mixture. Only reason I say this is since u are making a fresh batch each time at the moment all stages would be recieving the full dose of cal.mg coming from ur tap. But I wouldnt use tap by itself to dillute because this could increase the ratio of cal.mg going to ur younger plants.

How much shorter do u think the 2nd batch will be than the 1st batch of cookies? I need some root pics JS! Flush them moms out and put them outside if u can. May want to cut them down to half as they would be huge come end of sept. Sweet thing about is since u are already using GLR they shouldn't flower on u too early. The GLR cycle is probably the way to go when transplanting from inside to outside long as u are getting bout 14 hours of sun per day which should be coming up soon if not already.

Just a thought on the res. Maybe give this a try. Fill res. all the way up with ur full stength mix. Feed ur 1st. batch. Dillute with r/o water until you hit desired ppm, ph mix, and feed 2nd batch. Dillute with r/o water until u hit desired ppm, ph, then feed ur last batch. It is not necessary to use r/o water when mixing ur first full strength res. But would be more ideal to use r/o water when dilluting because u dont want to add more cal.mg. coming from ur tap unless u deem it necessary. Long as u are using same nutrients for all of them this should work nicely. Hope this helps.

Yeah, I going too do a full flush, all around tomorrow. I will take a closer look on the mums, I would like too try out a batch of "tiptopped" clones too check it out. But yeah, outdoor season is a go!!
You're on too something there on the res. Its a little similar too what im doing, just without ro, and Im not mixing up in the big res, but that would ease it up a little bit. I do have epsom salts, but no ro for now. Its not that big of a hassle, I actually enjoy feeding my girls. Its just, with a family too take care of as well, time isnt always at hand ya know. But I am sure it all will come together and work out, routine, routine, just have too this enough times, and it will soon become a walk in da park. Could also just get a bigger cloner and only run 2 batches at a time.

You shall have some root pics my freind Coming up tonight! As well of some pics of racks under 150 N 400 much difference in stretch, need them sixerz

haha juicy feeding three different pre mix! imagine how I am feeling/going to feel

using cyco's entire like 10 part line and then bpn and mixing up diffferent batches as the perpetual sog gets going

lol takes hours to make

Yeah SpiriThc, gonna get that overarm all pumped up, running around sprayin! How is it working out 4 ya with that pump\feedingmachine?

 

[SpiriTHC]

The "Round Up machine is pretty neat!
What I do is simply use a 5 gallon jug mix up what I need at the right ppm and pH and mix.. I use r/o water that I buy per gallon at walmart.. has like 10-50ppm so its low.. and what I do from there is just use that and I stopped using cal/mag because apparently those elements are in my nutes (Cyco and BPN) although my mothers look like they got a mag def coming about.. I think ima try the Epsom salts for that issue and see if it works.. (how do you use it and do you like the results of the Espom salts?)

So after the 5 gallon is mixed up with the proper ppms and pH I dump in 2 gallons at a time in the "Round Up and feed.. it does take sometime to feed because it comes out so soft , which is nice.. so I don't destroy the coco/perlite base that they are sitting in.. and I simply water 2 gallons per 25 2L DWC

also, tiptopper has a valid solution with preparing a less ppm nutrient solution!
Simply add water to dilute ppm and pH it back to normal then feed.. I will be def doing that when I drop the next set of clones in that will require a less ppm !

 

[JuicySoil]

Nice
Yeah I think the Epsom salt are doing something, but I really cant tell if its the flushes ive startet doing? Or the Epsom salts? Or the Ph getting more stable, many things are coming together, so hard to tell 4 a rookie like me, hehe
One things 4 sho, it has'nt harmed a thing! I'll say, give it a go bro
Oh yeah, be sure too dissolve it up in some warm water before going into premix. I dont know much about it but thats what Tiptopper suggestest. Which where for me using tap water wich already got some mg. And that where 1\4 tea spoon per 5 gallon. But that where low due too using tap. I would say dobble that for ro, but not knowing much about it though.. Tiptopper will b around 4 some root porn Im sure, maybe he would chime in here?

Sup fellas. If we are talking about a coco mix then u would definitely want to add some epsoms to ur nutes unless u are already using a coco specific brand like CNS17 COCO. BPN appears to be some good stuff but its not a coco specific nute. Spirit, u might want to try adding 1/8 tsp. of epsom into 1 gal. of r/o water and then check to see what the ppm comes out at. Make sure u check ppm of ur r/o water before the test tho. I would try to add enough to bump the ppm's up by 15-20 points and see what that does. I probably would be so concerned with ur clones tho because u would be running a really high ppm with ur co2 injection and that should compensate for the lack of mg. in ur nutes. Not saying there is a lack of mg. in ur nutes just saying that coco requires a higher cal.mg dose than other nutes. Do u pre-treat ur coco or just put them in there?

 

[preprodigy]

oh shit, nice! well it sounds like you have all of your variables in check then. im surprised to see the cline with out a light barrier doing the best. odd but interesting non the less.

If I am understanding you correct, I think Im already doing what youre suggesting. I've got 4 clones from same mother Northern light, cut same day, and rootet out before put in DWC-H all together. 3 paintet black too block light from res, and one without too see how much damage and difference there would bee if any..
Its a little exiting too follow, I think they are doing great, will be interresting. Its been said they should be able too throw off 20 gr dried each, if treatet proberly.

 

[SpiriTHC]

whats up ?
any update on the 2L DWC-H ?


mine seem to be doing fantastic!

 

[JuicySoil]

Zup SpiriThc!
Im happy too hear youre doing good, you deserve it bro. Mad chamber you got over there!

Things are going good, been quite busy with life these days, sorry for not being up too date in a while. But here is some progress 4 ya'll!

Still no signs of algae in the see through bottle, she's my darling

Untill next time -Peace out

 

[Casa Verde]

Busy man arn't you ?

Try to tape up the bottles so the roots dont recieve any lights , but i would glad to have a puf later on when its finished !

Can i can i ?

 

[JuicySoil]

Heheh 4sho you can my man! Road trip 2 Amsterdam DAYUM!!! Could B fun!!

Its actually a test, too see the effects the light will have on the roots, Nothing at all so far, pretty amazing..

 

[Casa Verde]

Nice test than , they look like they dont mined the lights so great job on that one !

Road tripping to amsterdam your invited my man !

 

[JuicySoil]

Yeah its has been amazing too follow the root growth in close up as well..

I've done it one time about 10 years ago with three homies. Mad trip, I found my self wandering around the streets of Amsterdam seing all kinds of colors, hehe! Shiiat at that time of life I did'nt reqognise the beauty in growing, only smoking! I deff would love to go back, too check out the Mekka of Chronic!
Maybe one day I'll have the skills too enter the Cup

 

[SpiriTHC]

The plant looks great in there! I am happy to see no algae or that the light is not effecting her!

How does it drink? and how often are you feeding it?
I am sorry I don't remember the exact age of the plant right now as well...

but yeah man! things are looking pretty swell in there!

Thanks bro.
I feed every other day, and at feeding time theres only 1\4 premix left in the res, so not empty, she never dries out..
She went into flower on the 7. of april that makes it 38 days in, or around 5 weeks.

 

[SpiriTHC]

word!

Every other day? Sh*t, when I check mine daily the bigger plant's res is empty. Maybe I need to make my hempy hole higher on that one.

Forsure! I realized with these that every other day I have to feed .. and I am only on day 20
I can't imagine when they are full blown in flower.. that is def going to be a daily feeding!

I gotta make the hempy hole higher on the new batch to see if that will help!

 

[SurfBuddy]

Per 12/12's advice I just used gorilla tape and made another hole
