420’s DWC 4 Dosidos MC 2020 Grow

[Azsmoker420]

Oh no not damaged super cropped . Make sure you get the calmag with 1-0-0 . I do the MC by grams , I tried the scoop and couldn’t get a consistent ppm ! Silica don’t think I really need it but trying it in hydro! The calimagic I use with the ro water at only 1-1/4 mL a gallon . Will only add more if I see a deficiency !
The 47% humidity will be fine especially when you get to those fat colas .
I don’t see a grow in your signature do you have one, sorry a journal . This is my third grow with MC in dwc and from what I see all you need is calimagic 1-0-0 . Everything on your list of wants and needs is a good one , you’ve been doing your homework!

Hi again. Could you tell if there is a good quality ph and tds pen (for hydroponics) on amazon? Those are the ones I need right? If not amazon maybe another place online. Please help me? I dont want to waste money again on something that I dont really need or is not quality. I'm in the 40 to 60 dollar range.

My hand held Apera ph20 is a good one around $50 or less . The tds meter is about $16 it’s an HM

Would cal mag 2-0-0 be ok?

Would cal mag 2-0-0 be ok?

Yes it will be okay , several using MC are using the 2-0-0

All four are Static on the ph but I want 5.8 if the topping off doesn’t raise it I’ll try some base ! No new twist in the leaves . The big fan leaves still have a slight down curve and the tips browning did not progress .
So far again no deficiency other than what was given , the falling ph not on my watch !

Tent temp 75.6 humidity 41%
As dense as these Dosidos buds are I think I’ll try keeping the humidity as low as possible .
Canopy temp 76.3
Canopy temp is great , edges are not curling but the lux Varys from 43k to 47k .

Outside temp, building temp, tent temp, plus humidity,canopy temp, and water temp daily.
TDS and PH recorded daily.
7 gallon HD buckets. When I put a water level amount in that’s how much I added to the bucket that day !

Found that these lids were a bright yellow light so I painted them with flat black that bleed thru so I painted over that with gloss black now no light bleeding thru!

Im defo looking forward to following this grow, so gonna take seat on this bus if ya don't mind buddy

Thanks @FurballDaddy i have about 30 days left on this grow and you probably already noticed I changed to the hps from the led .

Day 68/ Day 36 of 12/12 DWC
Now that I found for this grow pro-tekt silicon 0-0-3 to use 1-1/4 mL a gallon so I have control of the PH . 50&100% silicon after adjusting the ph drops like a rock daily. At 25% you can adjust the ph where you want it up or down and it will stay where you leave it .
Outside temp 43 humidity 94% NE9 mph
Building temp 70.5 humidity 49% forgot to turn the heater on, didn’t get low enough to hurt anything.

Thanks @FurballDaddy i have about 30 days left on this grow and you probably already noticed I changed to the hps from the led .

High pressure sodium? Is that better for flower?

 

[FurballDaddy]

High pressure sodium? Is that better for flower?

HPS and MH was the main go to for grows for so long so id definitely say they are good mate, the LED just tends to provide a full spectrum from seedling to finish, and uses less energy etc etc. Ive used LED on some autos and its worked well enough, but the issue is actual power provided by the lights. For example, its depending on the brand and its actual power delivery per each individual LED chipset, a 2000w LED light could hold 200 individual LED chips, but they might only provide 1w per chip(give or take 10%) .. which only equates to 200-220w, so it can be worth either spending cash on an LED with say a 3w chipset, then that would be great.. That was my mistake, i found out the power output of the LEDs was weaker than i thought on the 1000w and 2000w so running both gave me over 300w but was full spec so for me it was sufficient, for bigger yields id defo say HPS over LED as its tried and tested, as the spectrum has proven it works. Theres more guys with tons more experience than me who im sure will guide you.

Yep had noticed the light change buddy, looks good
Tbh had thought about doing that for when i do the next one, especially due to the actual emitted power by the LEDs i have isnt as high as i thought they were, so running both a 1000w and 2000w LED only gave me a 10th of their actual power provision... So im thinking if i go hps then yields should be much higher-especially in dwc lol

These girls will be getting a ro and nutrients change tomorrow. Try something different bubble the buckets for 24 hours then next 24 silicon in the morning and calimagic after 4 hours added , the next 24 hours mixing and a bubbling the MC cheap nutrients . 72 hours this time I want the ph to be static and not add anything once the girls are in the pool !

Can we survive by putting in 1/2 the amount of MC cheap nutrients in the mix ?

The leaves are pointing to the light with what few they have nearly took all fans plus did take the original fans without showing any deficiency.

Looks great! I noticed the same thing on my Dwc plants I just harvested even the lowest stuff on the plant turned out pretty good and my plants were tall and the lowers were pretty far away from the light.
