But got to admit some really rad looking plants guy
I think that he’s saying that he has invested enough time into these current plants as far as low stress training and topping are concerned and now it’s time to unleash them and let them grow a little bit before flipping them into flower. And one particular plant has required more magnesium than the others.
 
is that a RDWC or DWC. I am thinking of going to either so was curious of your opinion or anyone else's.
I guess it's DWC, only with a homemade 2.5 gal bucket
instead of a net cup or whatever. It's how I've
always kept my mothers, I'm not sure if it would
be any good for flowering though. I've never
grown DWC, only recirculating rockwool. 🤜 👍

ok i will search for any threads started on the pro's and con's of each of those. hopefully i'll find someone who is only going to grow maybe 4 plants at a time, so it'll be interesting. thanks
 
Finally found an indoor spot that stays at 70 degrees day and night. The temp in the original Poltergeist closet didn’t work out due to the HVAC vent. But everybody moved and they’re all happy again. Even the hashplant that I didn’t feed for two weeks because it was in Happy Frog when I thought it was FFOF. 😁

This closet works out better due to the 8’ ceiling. The Hashplant will find its forever home here while the rest go out to the spacelab ✌️

You: “aww adorable! You surfing some of them kitty waves to catch a fish?”

Cat: “bro. A telecaster?”






Legit though. Thats a real nice geetawr.
Ebony, African mahogany, mother of pearl, Gold.

That tele is tomb of the pharaoh shit my man 😎





So Tent 2 is officially fuckin ridiculous. Not the most complimentary roster of plants, but it sure does look cool.

Depends on the size of your setup and how many strains your keeping around how long ya wanna veg and how many plants you're wanting to put in it.

I tend to use DWC with smaller tents 4x4 and under. Or if I'm running multiple strains that will want different solutions and schedules/regiments

If Im mono cropping a big ass setup for bulk I'd run a RDWC with a master reservoir outside the tent/setup for simplicity sake. It can become a HUGE pain in the ass to run standard Dwc when you have more then 3-4 plants in a tent. More then 2 and having a small water pump you can move around on hand is a godsend.

When I run standard Dwc I use 5 gals. When I run RDWC I use 3 gallon buckets. If you build your own setup don't use a reservoir taller then your root buckets you'll end up flooding your tent eventually, even if you're careful. Always put air pumps *outside* the tent and off the ground. Never ever ever ever have electrical outlets or plugs lower then the rims of your root buckets inside a tent/grow space. You *will* suffer a consequence eventually if you do.


If you have troubles keeping root zones under 69°f aquarium chillers are a very useful but fairly expensive thing that works.

Today up close I found some of the dead black bugs that I think are responsible for the drastic decline of my plants. Also found a spider crawling through the de. I squished it , wasn’t a spider mite but I didn’t know if it was a good guy. The bugs moved over to the clones and I think they killed one. I posted a few pages back. I dumped de on the cups. I don’t see any movement on those. Watered the bigger plants and in the run off I got some red looking round dead bugs. I saved the cup because I thought I could try and get a photo. Just got off work and Mrs. putthataway dumped the cup so no pic. Whatever they are they weren’t there before the plants got sick and seem to be in the soil I am guessing attacking the roots. Will toss more de down tomorrow when the soil dries. Whatever they are they multiplied quickly and did some heavy damage . I never found them on the leaves, only the floor of the tent. By squeezing the solo cups I saw them coming out of the soil. On the bigger plants I never saw them in soil until the pots pissing the bloated round red bugs today. I think they came uncle Jim’s castings. My plants look like hell.

Were they Clover Mites?

I have little tiny white ones that eat on roots but mostly all you see is little airholes in the dirt. But I have found out drain nats they call them here in illinois.li never had them all the years I have had a garbage disposal.but I bleach my drains. Any way this is what I discovered at my son's house.2 story ,kitchen sink upstairs above my grow room in the basement.downstairs the little bugs on the wall going from sink to wall down to basement,into my grow room from that wall . How smart are those bugs now you tell me.
 
Similar color and that’s what came out the run off. Round like little balls in the cup of water, I couldn’t see the legs or snouts, similar to the dead carcasses of the black bugs I could see on the floor. Here’s one that’s alive.

We get clover mites up here and they’re destructive as hell.

Yep , they move to another source of food. They clone wasn’t looking so good but began growing new leaves making me think it rooted. Next day it was looking ready to die. I squeezed the cup and a bunch of bugs came out of the soil onto the stem, the same bugs only ones that were eating more. I want them dead.
