Ph stable at 6.0. It is no longer climbing at an absorbent rate. Ppm 500. Dropped a bit. Water temp was 25 I have it down to 19 with an ice pack.
now that all the numbers are good let’s see what she does.

The blue dreams are coming in nice. They are loving the pro mix BX.

I didn’t want to waste the ISO solution In the spray bottle so I ended up spraying them down with the 1.5:8.5 iso : water mix.
I have now followed the directions she’d posted and sprayed the undersides down with DE.

Congrats on the recent harvest! That'll keep you going for awhile 
You've got a lot going on in here. I'd love to to try a bubble bucket too. But I'm too chicken to try

Thanks Dank. I love experimenting. If I get bored more things will happen. But I’m also still learning and need a big harvest so I can mess around a bit more.Congrats on the recent harvest! That'll keep you going for awhile
Iso water mixes are one of the few things I don't mind wasting!

I guess. The DE seems to be working. I’ve seen a couple of them now trying to get away to the tops of the leaves in places with no DE. Lol. They are losing now.

Science says that once the equation balances the ph stops going up. This indeed does seem to be the case. After bubbling for about 24 hours the ph stops climbing. I set the ph and it stays there.
Setup new nutes for the bubbler. 5.67 ph and 340ppm. I dropped the ppm because on the last bucket the plant was drinking more than eating. I want to see by how much.
I have also read and it as well seems to be true that when switching from soil to hydro the plant must grow new roots. The roots now seem to be coming out of the bottom but it will be a ways behind the other clones. So seems doable but not recommended.
now for the real fun. Will a dialed in bubbler be faster than the pro mix? Can it catch up.

I haven't seen the transition from soil to hydro, but I do know that going from hydro to soil the plant must grow new roots. Makes sense it would have to happen the other way as well.

The older ones just kind of look gross. All the new ones are white as snow.

Good news guys , the DWC bucket is pushing out new growth and it looks amazing. The environment is dialled in and now we should see what this bucket and the mega crop can really do.
Shot of the whole crew. I never went into the grow room yesterday and when I can in this morning I was pleasantly surprised. All the plants pushed over an inch of growth. We rolling now.

Looking good! You could fit two autoflowers in there if you got a smaller fan .

I was thinking of putting the canopy just above it and spreading out. Those two in the bottom right are mothers. They will come out of the tent once they are no longer able to leach light in there.

All of the Blue Dream plants have got their second feeding. I upped the dose a little to about 800ppm keeping in mind my tap water is between 150 and 200. The genetics seem quite good on this Dr. Seeds Blue Dream. She clones quickly and grows fast.
The Widow I have had around since my original grow. My wife likes the smoke quite a bit so we like to keep that one around. She does not grow quite as quickly as the Blue Dream but seems to take off once the roots have settled in.
My first crack at this DWC bubbler is going pretty good. Now that the roots are coming in full force she is taking off and looking really good. Keeping the bubbler dialed in seems simple so far. She is at 6.0 ph and 350ppm right now and is drinking quite a bit. PPMs are stable and she is very perky.
I am very happy with the Mega Crop all my plants are looking perfect green and growing quickly both in the DWC and the pro mix BX.
Thanks for coming in and checking out my garden.

Looking great! I am watching this Mega Crop carefully... it seems to be a great system and who wouldn't love the price?!
Everyone looking nice and healthy
