Hempy LED Grow: DP Power Plant

[johnnyrotten]

I use duct clamps then duct tape over that...I also tape any seams on the fan to make sure nothing sneaks in there...

Yes @ flying, all the stress has been lifted off my shoulders now. Im now fully relaxed and have already learned a lot.

Pretty much all I have to do now is watch the temp and nutes, and watch them explode with growth.

 

[irishboiii]

Just fed them there, upped the nutes to 1.5ml per litre, 5.9PH & 550PPM.

I gave them 1L each and got 30%-40% runoff, but I had to give the best one 1.5L to get 30% runoff. Shes a greedy bitch lol.

She gave 30% runoff with 1L two days ago, but now she needs an extra 500ml just two days later? Is this normal?

 

[johnnyrotten]

yes, that's normal....wait until they start drinking a gallon and a half a day...

 

[irishboiii]

Seriously? They end up drinking that much even in coco hempys?

 

[FlyinJStable]

yes, that's normal....wait until they start drinking a gallon and a half a day...

Oh yes brother when in full tilt boogie your girls will be drinking more than two collage teenagers at a keg-garrrrr. . . . .

just watch her, talk to her and tell you love her nugs, the closer you pay attention the faster you will see if something is amiss.
It will all be good.

thats fucking hilarious...yep, they will drink a lot...I never used runoff with hemp's though, just watered until a little bit came out of the hole...

Oh yes brother when in full tilt boogie your girls will be drinking more than two collage teenagers at a keg-garrrrr. . . . .

One thing I'm forgetting is that you are using LED's, so they may actually drink less than a plants under HPS...

 

[irishboiii]

lol I wasnt aware that they will be drinking that much. A gallon a day? Thats a huge amount

 

[irishboiii]

So heres the girls at 3 and a half weeks old, still growing rapidly. I actually got 4 new tops on each plant after topping, because two side shoots are on par with the two new tops.

Il be starting LST in a few days, but its going to be tricky due to how compact and bushy they all are.

Also Il be feeding them tomorrow with 1.75ml per litre, 6.0PH & 620PPM solution.

 

[irishboiii]

Right, just fed them but noticed the browning leaf tips are spreading quite rapidly to the upper leaves. What is this a sign of? Is it calmag def?

Why isnt it posting the pic?

What's the ph of the runoff?

 

[irishboiii]

I wasnt aware that Im meant to test the PH of the runoff, I thought that checking the PH & PPM's of the runoff in hempys was pointless?

 

[Camdawg]

I've never ran hempy, although this grow as well as powers has sparked my interest. Its just a nice why to start to trouble shoot. If its going in okay but coming out wack as fuck you can kinda assume somethings fucky in there.

 

[irishboiii]

Right, Il check the runoff next time so. And if the runoff is out of whack what do I do then? Flush with PH'd water and then resume normal feeding?

I assumed it would be a calmag def due to coco being notorious for causing that, and the fact that LED also causes that.

Heres a few shots at my temporary LST until I pick up some string and tape
