It literally sounded like a gun being fired in the middle of the night…Damn i would have shit myself hearing that, lucky she's ok...phew! :P
Are you going to scrog for your next grow?
Yeah the LHS girl will be really nice, will be some fat budz for sure.
Your totes look really nice, do the lids on yours seal 100%?
The totes i have are stupidly tight, will make cleaning them out a pita.
Do you run live or sterile?
I thought if nutes were changed weekly, would it be possible to run a complete bloom cycle without having to remove the lids?
I recently wondered this for I'm very close to building my UC system, if the water is always clean and at the right temp i could simply control everything from the control bucket and top off bucket/tank couldn't i?
As for scrogging, wasn’t expecting these to top out at 1.2m or 4 feet in the old. I am undecided next run. I will be trialling Cyco nutes so could run the WW again to see if things are any different. I have just received some GSC Auto seeds and would love to run them, won’t be doing half half so need to make my mind up. I will see how the final yield ends up here and decide whether i can be ar$ed scrogging next time. If I get anything over 5oz/plant here i prolly wont bother…
The grow modules are essentially the same as a household rectangular rubbish bin shape wise, just bit more heavy duty and yes the lids are snug.
They have a cutout triangle in one corner to check roots and insert airline, I can take a photo if you need.
As for live v sterile, this has been my grow:
1) If the water feels warm I add ice
2) If the tent feels hot, remove globes
3) If the girls look hungry give them a feed and even nute measurement has been pretty rudimentary
4) Running the scrubber 24/7 is dealing nicely with smell and helping dehumidify
5) One 80cm tower oscillating fan 24/7 to blow things around
Everything is added to the system via the epi module or control bucket outside the tent. I do not do water changes. Every couple weeks i have taken 2 buckets system water out and topped up, usually do this when i feed. I have an occasional look under the lids at the roots, whiter than Colgate Toothpaste.
I am sure a home built system can be just as good for probably 25% of the cost but I am time poor and needed a turn key setup. I would like to build a copy one day but it’s not high on the list but I will be cheering you on.
I secretly feel a little guilty bout things going so well but i am due for a bit of good fortune.
Cheers man.
