soo about a month ago i set up a doubled's mpb set up. unlike doubleds i do not run a sealed room. I wanted to make sure the system worked before I dropped the clams for the split a/c and the santa fe ect. I started the cuts for 3 weeks, then vegged for9days in the buckets. here we are 13days into flower and I no longer have a "room" just a jungle.
the first pics are of the day they entered the buckets, the next pic is 9days later when I flowered them
and here we are now at day 13 of flower. these pics do 0% justice to the size of these plants, It is foolish how large they are, the second picture is the backside of one of the outside plants, i think next run i will try to add some 400wers on the backside because they produce so little heat
and what strain? I assume clones? Looks kinda like green crack the way they are branching so heavily but more like our purple hawaiian in the leaf structure? anyway, looks great
I've had the ppms are around 900 the whole run, this system is boring in the sense there isnt anything to do but top up the res evrey 2days or so. the PH doesnt move in this system, stays are 5.7, the nutes i'm using is floranova, koolbloom, and that floralicous plus. running super clean, my res looks brand new. i'll add powered koolbloom when its called for. they are starting to drink I would say 15gals of water a day
also my next run will be with rockwool cubes as starters, instead of those coco baskets. they are cool but i think its took a couple days for the roots to pop thru the coco husks. where rockwool i could imagen the roots finding the water within a day or two. i have the top feed coming on for like 20 mins every 2 hours, but will play around with that when i use the rockwool to avoid any stem rot. they why these sluts drink water it shouldnt be an issuse
