First Grow DWC Blackberry Kush & Master Bubba

[kiet420]

So after reading and reading and reading Roseman's tutorial I decided to give the DWC a try for my first grow. I started about 18 days ago, got 2 clones from the local dispensary. Most of the stuff I purschased at Home dePOT, Petco, and the local Hydro shop. I will be vegging her out for a total of 4 weeks, then she goes in to flowering. I will try to keep this updated weekly. Comments and advice is more than welcomed afterall, I am a rookie. So here it goes....

Cabinet- 72"x36"x20"
Lights- 150w HPS
Nutes- Foxfarm Trio
Strains- Blackberry Kush & Master Bubba

Thanks man, for the rep as well!! I think they're drinking almost half a gallon per day. I drained and replenished on Thursday uping the PPM's to 600 its been 2 days now and they are LOVING it!!! They are both growing pretty fast, can't wait to flower them. I will take some pics to show you guys the progess, shoud have them up by Monday.

DAY 22

So here's a quick update on the girls, they seem to be doing very good!!! I did a D&R on Thursday with PPM's at 600, and pH at 6. Every night I adjust the pH to 6, and every morning it rises to about 6.15, so I just leave it alone till the night time, and it reads 6.3 or so by night time. So throughout the whole day I don't really get drastic pH changes!! I'm gonna leave vegging for another week, then it's flower time!! Here's some pics, enjoy..

I wouldn't say I'm confident, I think more optimistic!! This is my first grow, and so far so good, for now at least!! Keeping my fingers crossed, but I know if I do run into some trouble, those fellow Deep Water Culture won't mind helping out. I can't wait to see BB myself!!!

Looking great! You have the right idea in not overreacting to PH swings. Personally I like 5.6 to 5.8 in veg due to N being more available at that PH level but it's not enough to be concerned at all about. That 6.0 to 6.3 will work great in flower (P and K are best taken up by the plant at that level) and there is no arguing with success.

Thanks MC, I've been adjusting to 6 every night, but maybe I'll try alittle lower as you suggest.
