It’s a girl!!!

OK, so I got my h2o2 low level ppm strips and tested the cloner bucket water, showing zero so she must have used up what I put in there the first time. I added one more ml 12% h2o2 and tested, somewhere between 5 and 10 so I thought that pretty good. I can add a tad more if anyone thinks I need to.

Im curious to see how long it last… with aeration i would assume 12-24hrs if that?… The way h2o2 works is it kills everything and dissipates quickly because it is destroyed when it reacts with organics. Its dosed every 3 days or so to keep knocking the populations down.


if you get a chance maybe you can test this and let is know exactly. I know the duration will change with more nutrients or contamination

Some chop day photos during.

Hey @Aqua Man .post 568 .can you tell us if you know why the leaves are sucking in like that..is it environment related. Rh?
I’ve had the same more than once but I’ve never worked out why it does that.cheers max

My wife helped me do a mini photo shoot with this beauty. Enjoy some bud porn (or at least the best I can do with it!)

I'm guessing Max that they are not the most healthy. They have been in there more than a month waiting on my arse to get the grow room finished. I almost tossed them. Going sterile to get ahead of the root rot and then going back live once the system is built. I would be curious as to what A-man has to say about them.

Looks to me like a root issue. Something with transpiration and water flow through the plant.

This can be seen sometimes when you transition from something like a rapid rooter or other starter to hydro. Root structure changes, depending on the media used.

basically the most likely would be root stress. The cause can be many many things… even bugs

I was thinking along the same lines. Something weird going on in the root structure.

It it can also be caused by environmental conditions that severly reduce transpiration. like very high humidity for longer periods, spraying the plant with something that causes it to react by closing stomata.

its transpiration as i say but the why are always harder to diagnos and thats where the information provided makes a huge difference that allows you to narrow it down and eliminate causes

PPM looks right on.

So it could b just vpd out of whack .I’ve had it late in veg and flower ..sometimes a few fan leaves doing it and other times on the small bud leaves.

Ahh didn’t see this till after I posted.I’ve always thought it’s environment as plant seems healthy otherwise

Congrats SLG! Nicely done, and I hope she has the effect you’re looking for. It’s been awesome watching this grow. Lots of great info and riffing between good growers on this thread.
