This is my first time growing cannabis, not in hydro or soil, I mean growing cannabis period. I did conduct a lot of research before starting including reading forums and one member i gotta give my thanks too TheCapn amazing info really. now I can assure you this won't be the most accurate journal because well I didn't keep notes this is all from memory and some pics. I am a slacker also i lost a bunch of pics when my phone broke last month sorry but on to the details.
The current strain was from female seed, strain hunter money maker.
Veg stage
she was topped at 4th node then topped main branches 4 weeks later. stalk split vertically while low stress training - bandage was applied. the plant was vegged for 70days total in DWC under 400watt mh in 6in cool tube.
Nutes = 7grams maxi bloom + 2.5ml cal-mag per us gal - hydrogen peroxide was added twice a week. then allowed for gradual PH rise from 6.0 - 6.4 then ph - down to 6.0. res changed every two weeks. tap water was used entire grow, tested at 6.8 ph at 150ppm tap water
Flower setup
3x3x5 mtn gearbox tent, 4inch carbon filter, 6inch cool tube, 600watt hps with ipower digital hps/mh ballast, 6inch centrifugal fan with speed control. my fan configuration is passive intake - 4inch vent tech filter - 6inch cooltube - 6inch vent tech centrifugal fan - outside the tent.
ebb n flow table made from 1 inch pvc frame and concrete mixing tray with tees 1in x 1in x 1/2in side inlet for detachable scrogg, scrogg measures 29in x 28in, reservoir is a tub which holds 7gallons, 1/2 inch irrigation tubing, one 1/2 fill tube and two 1/2 overflows, 1/2 barbed joiners and grommets - no ebb and flow fittings or bulkheads used. 160gph pump, titan analog 15 min timer. the timer floods every two hours for 15mins during lights on.
the basket is suspend in table not sitting on bottom due to the roots grew out the bottom of the basket because it was vegged in DWC, also i did not break the root ball just laid it down and covered it with river rock.
it's been lollopped as of a week ago and 20days into flower as of Jan 1st, planed for an 80day flower total. est harvest date is at the latest march 1st. will update with new pics every 10 days. also the next run I will be taking more notes and making a real accurate journal because it's been fun.
I've increased my Nutes as of 28 days into flower jan 9th
7grams maxibloom per us gallon
1/2 tsp of cal-mag per us gallon
1tsp flora grow per us gallon
1tsp flora macro per us gallon
1tsp flora bloom per us gallon
feel free to leave advice or criticism because keep thinking it should be bigger for being so old bit i don't know, i am noob at this. thanks for reading and again sorry for my horrible documenting skills.
