well its day 37 and i have decided that's since it was time for Baby's dwc clean, that i would start her on 12/12 today a week earlier than planned, she does have some staggered limbs, but not many....
anyways i cleaned her dwc, scrubbed it out nicely, whilst i took my time doing that Baby sat in a 20lt bucket of the freshest rainwater you can get, straight from the heavens above.....
i trimmed the excess leaves, though she is still quite fat and bushy but beautiful as always.... then placed her back into her dwc with fresh water and fresh nutes.
a 24 hour period of darkness is now happening, then when the lights turn back on, they are set to 12/12....
i have had to move Baby and her box to the back of the house as the carbon fan seems to be failing so will need to look at that again this week, might look into these air filter socks i keep seeing in the hydro shops.....(has any one tried one before?)


Anyways here is a few pics of Baby before and after her trim.......please enjoy

well time for update, Baby is now at day 46 from seed, and 10 days into 12/12.....

i am feeding her "canadianxpress ultimate indoor for hydro bloom" at a lesser rate than stated on the bottle as the weeks pass i will increase the rate slowly to maximum dose, as this is my first im tentative in what im doing.....

anyways i have included some pics of Baby as today was her dwc cleaning day

Your plants really exploded in the DWC! I think it has something to do with having 4x air stones. I do love DWC, and only reserved for mothers. Can't wait to see some bud sites, it's going to be huge!

looks like i got bad news on Baby


Baby looks like Bobby


will give Baby/Bobby another week roughly then post pics and see if members agree


and then if Baby is Bobby it will be a sad day here


I wont need to wait the week to see if Baby is Bobby as it has been confirmed i have being giving all my TLC to a male, so now i have given Bobby (Baby renamed) the boot and kicked him to the kerb....
thankyou to astonr420 for confirming my fear..........
