Hey there ,
while waiting for my two AF Super silver hazes to complete, I thought of dipping my toes into hydroponics.
So, the set-up:
Strains:
-Barneys Farm Crimea Blue 2x
-White Widow (Dutch-headshop.com)
Hydro:
-Bubbleponics with drip irrigation. 10L Volume
-Plagron Hydro nutrients.
-3D Printed pots
-Expanded clay aggregate for medium.
Lights:
-Same as in my other grow journal, 90W custom LED with some TL lamps. I ordered 6 100W chips, so I will be upgrading soon .
Tent:
-Secret Jardin 90x90x180
-Automatic fire extinguisher. When playing with custom built electronics, play it safe.
Journal start.
I germinated two of each seeds, and they came out in less than a day and a half! Damaged the root tip of one of the CB's, so it will have stunted growth.
I will treat the day I put the seedlings in the hydroponic system as Day 0. I've built my bubbleponic system from a 9W 600l/h water pump and a 4.5W air pump, I hope it will be enough. The water is pumped through a 3D printed four way splitter. Getting PLA to be water tight is a nightmare so I gave up, running the pump at slightly higher pressure. The water drips trough a perforated loop of very soft plastic hose. I added 0.7ml/L of hydro A and B. However my EC meter did not arrive today and my pH meter crapped out on me I'm using distilled water and I hope I got the right pH and EC. I'll measure a sample ASAP.

I'd love to hear your feedback, tips, criticism, support
