Hey guys, thanks for stopping by 
I will be flipping my 4 Blue Kush ladies to flowering in the next couple of days. I thought it would be a great opportunity to show how I grow in RDWC using Mars Hydro SP 3000 LED lights. This run will be in Coco in RDWC.
I really like Mars Hydro products. I bought my first Mars LED light back in 2013, and haven't used any other light since. They're reliable and my plants love them!
Here they are, the stars of the show
I expect to see some roots like these coming from these 4 ladies very soon - watch this space.
What strain is it?
Dinafem Blue Kush
Is it Indica, Sativa or Hybrid? What percentages?
45% Indica, 55% Sativa
Is it in Veg or Flower stage?
Just about to flip
If in Veg... For how long?
18-21 days
If in Flower stage... For how long?
Expect to flower for ~9 weeks
Indoor or outdoor?
Indoor
Light schedule?
Veg : 18/6
Bloom : 13.5/10.5
If indoor...Dimensions (L x D x H) of grow space?
Veg Space : 120cm x 60cm x 160cm
Flowering Space : 120cm x 120cm x 200cm
Soil or Hydro?
Hydro - RDWC
Size of light?
1 x Mars Reflector (For Veg)
2 x Mars SP 3000
Temp of Room?
75f
RH of Room?
25-40%
PH of media or res?
5.8-6.0
How often are you watering?
Coco is watered small amounts multiple times per day. Coco will always be at least barely moist.
RDWC Systems will be topped up as necessary.
Water quality?
I collect rain water. Rain water is 0 EC.
When i run low I dilute tap water with rain water to start at 0.3ec.
Tap water is a last resort for me. My starting tap water EC is 0.6. Tap water and LED lighting don't go well together in my experience without having good control over room temp and RH.
What Fertilisers do you use?
These are all of the nutrients i use throughout the entire lifecycle. Obviously I don't use them all at the same time
Base
Coco: Buddhas Tree Coco A + B
RDWC : Canna Aqua Vega/Flores
Boosts
Buddhas Tree Flower Burst (Early bloom)
Buddhas Tree PK 918 (Mid bloom)
Buddhas Tree Metaboost (Mid bloom)
Atami Bloombastic (Late bloom)
Supplements
Buddhas Tree Solar Green Power (Silica)
TA Calcium Magnesium (1-0-0)
TA Fulvic (First week of bloom)
Botanicare CalMap Plus (2-0-0)
Botanicare Sweet RAW
Canna Cannazyme
H&G Drip Clean
Advanced Nutrient Carboload
TA Flashkleen (For flush)
Beneficials
Plant Success Great White
Botanicare Hydroguard
H&G Root Excelurator Silver
How strong will nutrient feeds be?
RDWC EC will start at ~0.9ec, may get as high as ~1.2ec during peak flowering, and will drop off to ~0.8ec, before the 5-7 day final flush.
I look forward to sharing what I've learned about growing and flowering beautiful plants under Mars LED lighting.
