VetSmoke Going Coco With The ViparSpectra XS2000

[Trala]

Definitely looks better… thank god. My eyeballs appreciate it lol

 

[VetSmoke85]

Flip +36. If anything I could probably dial back the nitrogen now. I'll hit equilibrium eventually.

Blue Cheese

Mac N Cheese

White Widow X Northern Lights

I dropped the A&B to 1ml/L. I think this thread is a good example of how much abuse cannabis plants can take and keep going.

I've been watching the WWxNL start to show similar signs the Cheese's did. I could've taken her off bottom feeding when I did the others but I wanted to see what she did if left on the bottom feeding. Looks like she'll be getting a flush and going onto hand feeding this weekend too.

Looking good bro I was really hoping the white lights would make it! Just to give the system some credit. At least she will be back on track over night

Solo is looking good there too

This shows me that bottom feeding is a whole lot different to top feeding in coco.
I do feel its about working out a method tbh.As i would of had the same issues.
I would of treated the system as if i was top feeding.
But i feel 1/2ml to L is the sweet spot for me shogun wise even if they ask for more.
MUCH greener the top feeders now.
Great turn around dude

Yeah I was hoping the same. I think some changes to the system would make success more likely.

Yeah she's just chilling doing her thing. Been getting a little water now and then when I empty the dehumidifier. Easy.

Yes mate I think adding a load of clay pebbles and an airdome would probably help a lot. I'd likely top feed for longer before switching the Autopots on too. Also run it sterile with periodic additions of H2O2. That's my thoughts so far.

Nice save Vet.

I think like everything, plants are designed to survive. And they will fight till their last breath, or charge from their failing roots lol.

We just need to be careful we don’t over complicate their medical treatment while trying to save them with Big Green Pharma. Less is more. Well I think it is when it comes to growing. Not that I’m an expert by a long shot lol.

Some nice flower pics of the Mac N Cheese tonight.

Well done Vet, great turn around, and they're looking frosty as too!

 

[VetSmoke85]

White Widow X Northern Lights definitely needs a flush tomorrow night and to come off the bottom feeding.

Hope you all have a great weekend.

 

[ViparSpectra]

Good save Vet! Plenty frosty. Have a nice weekend.

End of week 5 from flip. The WWxNL was flushed last night and being top fed now. Hopefully see some colour come back over the next week.

There won't be a whole lot of the Mac N Cheese but what's there is looking great. The Blue Cheese will yield a lot more but is still lacking trichome coverage.

 

[Trala]

Such a good save. I’m impressed.

6 weeks from flip. I need a big syringe to drain the run-off. Right now I'm using a little cup and a 20ml syringe. It's a pain in the arse.

I've been considering mixing up my setup for the next grow and running some autos. I'm limited with space but I'm thinking of putting a 2x2 side by side with my 40x40cm. Use the little tent for starting them off and drying harvested plants. Maybe get a bit of a rotation going. I'll probably have to buy a new 2x2 tent though so I'm mulling it over. There's only 158cm headroom on the side I'd put them. So it'll have to be a 60x60x140 or I've found one tent that's 60x60x158 (a super snug fit).

Looks like you've sorted out the leaf issues in damn fine manner!

I've seen a few plants with very little trich production here but I've never seen anyone figure out why it happens. I hope your BC gets with the program now that the leaf stress is gone.

So whens the delivery date on the new tent? I'm terrible for getting an idea then jumping straight in! Looking great though vet not long left

They seem to have settled down. Thanks mate.

Well, I was looking at her tonight and I'm sure she's got a little bit more frost appearing. Hopefully just a little slow to get going.

I'm awful as well mate. Trying to avoid spending more money but my other tent that would fit is 60x60x120. It's a bit shorter than I'd like for what I have in mind.

 

[Stunger]

Really good turn around Vet. It is nice it is clearly on the mend, did you reach any conclusions on what the cause of the failing leaves was, and what the primary correction factor has been?

 

[Carcass]

Really good turn around Vet.

Like night and day- Well done, Vet!

I need a big syringe to drain the run-off.

A Dollar store super soaker does the trick for me!
It picks up apx.1.25 cups at a time, so it's way faster than the turkey baster I used to use...
