RQS Critical 6-Pot RDWC 1st Grow

[Peterpangreen]

Id let it rock and roll for a couple days and see what happens. Those roots are growing to vigorously to toss. Let it Livvveee! Happy growing!

Yeah I will let it live, the roots are growing really good on this one

 

[Ganjagrandaddy]

I will take a carefull look when I finished work, btw if any signs of bugs I have the canna cure stand by..

good to be prepared mate. now is the waiting time while the roots get established.

 

[Peterpangreen]

Here some pics I just took.. couldn't find any insects..
I took pics of 4 plants and all have some small things but different, yellowing on tip and some have blue-ish on the edges of the leaves.
So maybe they're asking for some food but ppm from tapwater is around 280ppm.
Roots growing by the day though

 

[Ganjagrandaddy]

still very young , be cautious of feeding as it is easy to overdo it. 280ppm from tap water will contain some elements of calcium ect and also some bad chloramine etc.. they will use the little rounded leaves when they need additional nutes , as they provide a packed lunch while the roots search for a more abundant source. food comes from your lights also and photosynthetic activity will occur to help build cells too. the yellowing would be the ph issue you had and could also explain the leaf damage too. There are charts in the help sections that show different leaf damages and their causes.

Allright! I tried to find the charts but can't find the forum section. Can you show me where I can find it?

Thanks man, I also found a good one on here too. Helps allot to learn about nutriënts and deficiencies.

looking great peter. healthy and happy with nice roots forming. going well.
took a few pics of a bud close up for you below. This was dried quicker out of desperate need of bud. lol
The slower dried will be even nicer i think. Welcome to RQS Critical

That’s some nice frosty bud right there! My RQS Fruit Spirit is the same, really good genetics.

they do create some nice sticky sugary buds at RQS. have a hulkberry due out next too. had too much silica and a bit too much nitrogen but buds look thick spirals and frosting nice. have lost yield a bit though. Next run is all them alone so can feed accordingly instead of multiple strains again.

That Hulkberry is a strain I’d like to try. I’ve ran the Fruit Spirit with clones for the past 12 months now, the hash runs it produces are epic. I definitely recommend it if you guys like RQS. I’m running that alongside their Mistic Blue in my perpetual grow, just over two weeks into flower now.

sounds good . will come over for a peek. i did make hash from last couple of crops with ice bags. was hreat to see all that "waste" become more than harsh tasting "desperation weed". lol. I am running all Hulkberry next run too . have 7 clones that have converted from flower ( monstercropped in week 4 flower) so should be a bushier version hopefully. impressed with the spirals on it that are similar to heat foxtails but a lot thicker and full of oil.
The RQS Critical is a great strain too. came as a freebie to the Hulkberry but impressednthebhellnout of me. Great choice Petergreen. They will do you well as a first grow mate. They love impressing and with your set up and light , you will smash it.

Yeah man I hope so! Just looked up the manifold technique. I really have to make a choice of training technique I'm going to use for the ladies. so maybe manifold or scrog.

I mainline peter. It’s a great way of training and can be combined with a scrog for brilliant results. If you have any questions I can definitely help you with that.

 

[Ganjagrandaddy]

both viable options mate. scrogging can limit movement around the plants as the net becomes full so you need to be able to get around all sides for working on it ect...
Manifold/mainline/flux you can create a canopy and still use the net once the budsites form. It could help keep them separate for light coverage.

What is your target yieldwise and how long you planning on vegging peter?

It really depends on how fast they will grow on the vedge time. And as a newbie to dwc I don't have any experience on how fast they will grow. I'll just have to see. I'm hoping for a gram/watt on this grow, maybe out of reach but would be nice. And with 6 buckets each plant with 8 main's I hope it's possible.
Got some tips/tutorial from ganjagrandaddy on mainlining:
