Getting a really late start on this one... starting week 4 of bloom.
Details:
Strain?
-SnowWreck (snowcap x trainwreck)
-hybrid
- 9-10 weeks
-my pheno has a wild smell/taste to it: I can only describe it as mtn dew with a drop or two of pine sap in it.
Is it in Veg or Flower stage?
-24 days into bloom as of today
Indoor or outdoor?
-Indoors
Soil or Hydro?
-DWC sterile 6 gallon res
Size of light?
-1000w HPS for each plant
Is it aircooled?
-Open air reflectors
Temp of Room/cab?
-64night/74day
RH of Room/cab?
-71%night/23%day
PH of media or res?
-Starts out at 5.8 every day, rises to 6.2 over night
Any Pests ?
-no pests or diseases
How often are you watering?
-topping the res off every day
Type and strength of ferts used?
-GH three part according to their own feed chart +calmag, yucca extract (I make my own bottles of it), nitrogen boost and multi-zen from house and garden, liquid kool bloom, MOAB, bud-xl from house and garden
-1ml/g h2o2 with all fresh water
-currently 425ppm
Ok. Now for a quick catch up:
I planted these two plants out of my ez-cloner 52 days ago. They absolutely took off right away. I've never seen growth like that. This is my first DWC culture set up in three years. I must have been doing something wrong when I did it before because it just took off this time. Not even any transition time from the transplant.
I topped it really early on (in the first week), trimmed it up from the bottom twice during veg and once in very early bloom, super cropped to keep the canopy in check through veg, then moved it in to bloom under a trellis screen at the 28 day mark. I have super cropped only the colas that were really reaching in bloom, but stopped once the plants hit mid bloom (SnowWreck has a tendency to do quite a bit of stretching in early bloom)
In my experience the SnowWreck is a late bloomer (would love to know anybody else's experience with it!). So it took about 6 days to start showing bud development. Hasn't really taken off like I'd hopped, but it's always been a late strain for me so maybe I'm just wanting to rush it. They are only just rounding the bend between early and middle bloom right now so it looks like they have a good 40-50 days to go.
Any suggestions, thoughts, tips, comparisons, ect are always welcome!
WATCH OUT! I'M GUNNA TRY SCIENCE!:
I try to get a little scientific with each of my grows, so I'm both learning something new every time (usually it's lots of things that I learn), and because it makes every run different. For this grow the DWC is the question! How will it perform standing up to my coco method? Looking specifically at yield for this trial, but I will be breaking it down to comparisons of growth, density, thc (both "crystal" coverage and effects), and weight
(You can find a journal recording my coco method here:

Cheers all,
