nutrients: General hydroponics flora series 123 Flora-gro,Flora-micro,and Flora-bloom ,superthrive




Strains: 5 bubblegum(colorado strain) and 2 tripple A strains

the bubblegum is on day 11 of 18/6 water in res is ph 6.0
the tripple As are still takeing root in rockwool

nute strength is at 3/4 per gal:3 tsp Flora-gro, 2 tsp Flora- micro, 1 tsp Florabloom

seedlings are started at 1/4 tsp of each nute, per gal



Well those are the specs and for what i can say This is my FIRST hydro grow and for the most part seems to keep me busy i will include sum pics in my next post ANYWAYS im STOKED to BE back in THe community

400 watt cool tube running /mh

The next photo is of the Triple A(strain) seedlings getting ready to go under the big light

The few photos below are of MY HOmemade DWC/drip setup
i have a pump in the main tube with 4 8 inch airstones to kepp nutes well mixed , and in my res for the drip irrigation has the main drip line pump and a smaller pump in the middle of the tub ,again to keep the nutes well mixed , the drip line is on 18hours ON and only turns on 3 times when lights out , currently in the setup are the 5 bubblegum ON day 15 from seed and day12 of being put in the setup THEY are GROWING like WEEDS WAY different THAN SOIL

another blurry pic

(the black poly dripline was on back order so i had to use the clear tell it arrives)
k now her are the pics of each bubblegum numbered 1-5 day12
#1 fastest grower of the 5 in my opinion

#2

#3

#4

#5

well that's the setup and there will be more to come

 

[BubbaDank]

OK so everything's going good so far haven't had any PH problems and their growing 3/4 an inch a day (never had this type of growth in soil before)

PH:5.6


NOW THE PLAN : i have 5 bubblegum going ,after 4 weeks veg , i will go to 12/12 to show sex . as soon as i determine my females, i will grab my very best and and transfer to the (mother /clone area) with the remaining females (depending on my luck)finish flowering . i hope to be taken enough clones to make this a perpetual harvest of bubble gum.

Below are a few pics of the Bubblegum 1-5

great to see you Bubba!!
dont sweat the 1 gallon useage...when it goes down 3 or more add 3 gallons of your premixed water and nutes...after 7 days dump it no matter what.

 

[BubbaDank]

Yo PitViper VEry NICe to see YOu STopn BY,

Thanks for the info MUCH appreciated for SURe

i plan to change the res water this wednesday and run fresh nutes

 

[BubbaDank]

i got a ? what should i set my timer to for my drip line

 

[PitViper]

Ive done all kinds of hydro but never a dripper, I would think 15 mins every cycle but please dont take that to heart.

Thanks pit any Advise Is better than NONE

, as of now i have my dripline turning on with my lights and then turns off with them , during the night cycle i have the timer set so it turns on 3 times during the 6 hours that lights are off (does this sound right or totally wrong)
