What's this weird purple. Is she dying too?

And unknown strain. Sold as GG4 but not.

Nope she is showing her fall colors. That's a good sign. She'll continue to purple up more and more. I'm not to well versed in GG4 so I can't say, but it looks like quality though.

keep an eye on your res temps(cold), but i think most of that is just as justiceman said, fall colors :)
There is a spot or 2 that caught mt eye, but we will just watch closely.... When u change out your res, how cold is the water your putting in there? If its 50's out of the faucet you could be shocling them possibley when you change out... just another thought to keep in mind.. My water sits in a 25 gal res a couple days prior to change out.. Its prob 72 going in and cools down as it enters due to the cold floor in basement. and i have an aquarium heater set to 68 to maintain it... Will add a chiller as soon as i can!

I see some pretty nice colas coming in! If you keep that res temp under 71 you will finish out pretty good!

@Wisher619 hey brother, what should i clean out the buckets, system, lines with? h202 and hot water? or bleach and hot water at like cap full to a gal?

And im gonna clean and reuse my hydroton again for the 3rd time. It just gets better :)
Last time i just soaked in hot water. I was wondering if i should use something else?

 

[EventHorizan]

So @rmoltis when am I gonna talk you into a single dwc bucket grow?

I've thought about it. My lower chamber of the tent could be a reservoir and equipment space.


Or I could just drill a drain in my drip pan and make it a flood drain setup With a hose going into the res (recirc) or waste bucket in the lower chamber.

I've considered it.
The one with the least changes to my setup would be flood and drain.

But doing this would remove my 12 bulb t5 chamber and id have no room to store it elsewhere.

So its just a matter of time eh? lol

Undecided.
With how big and fast my plants get.

If I had them in any form of quick growing media it would overgrow my space real quick. I need to stay in soil to limit the growth.

Noooooooooooo! You need to veg quick and super crop! 35 days and you get the same canopy! I promise!

 

[EventHorizan]

You would kill it rmol with fast vegging, super cropping and scrogging! You would straight kill it!
But like Wisher said, it requires a person to rethink what they think... and that's very hard to do...

Not saying you of course... just saying it's hard to change ones direction especially when you get the attention that you do, with that plant...
But we just need to look at the bigger grows to see what is mainstream. ..

Rmol take it easy on me brother... I don't want you thinking I'm fuchsia with Picasso! Lol just sharing ...

I could handle the change.
I just don't want it.

Right now I can use my soil, save it, compost it then use it in an outside garden. Running water media would not allow me this

But we just need to look at the bigger grows to see what is mainstream. ..

Just remember I'm not one to follow mainstream ideas well :cry:.

@EventHorizan
I always use bleach
but if you have say an enzyme and a salt leacher like drip clean
you could run the drip clean
then run an enzyme
thn fresh water
and you should be good
I use bleach but I rinse with fresh water and let sit for 24hours then rinse and repeat until I cant smell bleach anymore

I am kinda anal

Are we talking the hydroton, the system, or both?

 

[EventHorizan]

I went ahead and completely disassembled the system, washed it bleach water, and allowing them to soak for about 15 mins, then i will rinse and follow your 24 hr rerinse..
