Being the location i have to keep my plants, I'm trying to find any way possible to not go through the whole flush process haha. That and I have to buy all my water @ $1 5 gallons. It's not much but it does add up if Im constantly changing ya know. Not to mention my plants are upstairs and lugging water just sucks

are you running 1 bucket or multiple buckets. i cant remember.

100 on that. I face the EXACT same situation. So I am all about going longer. There just wasn't no way in hell i was losing my first harvest to being lazy... Now I will experiment. And using a top off reservoir with a float valve,,,ppm slightly higher and ph'd in the opposite direction slightly, should get me that 2 weeks HANDS FREE that i am striving for..

duuuude... that would be dope. I must say I am definitely loving the ease of this veg with the dwc. then again.. the dreaded transition is coming. We'll see if I learned anything from my last grow, lol. Already a jump in the right direction... my roots are white, hahaha.. here's a couple pics from my last (first) grow. All Purple Voodoo (Photo)

Lol... white roots are good... you need to shorten them autos up and bush them out. I BELIEVE I could grow a 6 Oz auto with the right strain... I think I am gonna get 3.5 Oz off this one.

daaaaaang! thats a purty one :). Day 20 is looking pretty good. The Gorilla Glue is showing her pisitils! Ima watch some videos on LST. What i understand, there's an optimal schedule.

 

[Fatty LIVES]

question: Do some autos come in weird colors like this? PPM on the Cali Haze is 100 points higher. no nute burn but doesn't that kinda look like a Mag Def?

 

[Fatty LIVES]

aaand now I think the cali has a little bit a nute burn... 360ppm.. really? something else that would make it do that? what the heck haha. GG is doing fantastic just started showing some pistils.

snap a pic let me see.. I wouldnt think 360 would either. where was it at before? what is your ph? What nutes? temp in your tent?

 

[Fatty LIVES]

I haven't changed the PPM, PH 5.8-.60 (yellow - never changes), GH FLoranova grow, currenty 74 at their ground level, ater temp low 70's running Hydroguard and the roots look AMAZING

 

[Fatty LIVES]

idk.. hahaha, whatever... it's barely yellowed at the tips it's just annoying!

I asked my instructor and this is what he said about this pic.

mg or sulfur
either way
first make sure ph is between 5.8-6.2
if it is within range
1 gram epsom salts will cure either

so a deficiency?

 

[Fatty LIVES]

here's some updated pics from just a bit ago. After looking at a def. chart, I believe your instructor to be right. I dont have epsom so I just put a couple mls cal mag. I'm running RO water so that would make sense too. The Gorilla Glue is looking lush tho :)

 

[Fatty LIVES]

yep, now the gorilla glue started doing it and I noticed her PPM dropped too... They're eatin! Now I know I can bump it up a little bit. woop woop.. rather under than over.. easier to add than take away!

Root update: I'm amazed at the production. Theyre HEAVY to the bottom and have grasped onto the air stones. Very strong, super pearly! Bumped up the nutrients today after noticing some yellowing (believe Mg Def) tips

 

[Fatty LIVES]

furthermore, if you look real close at the leaves on the GG theres tiny spots where the leaf has "died". also Mag def. lol, this is actually my first time dealing with deficiency in hydro, hahaha... with an Auto never the less. Anyway, moving on. they're good and I'm happy to know I dont have to be SUCH a wuss with the nutes.

 

[tinderthumbs]

Sounds good man.. I use Roots Organic food line and soil with great results, reuse the soil like 3x's adding a little fresh into the mix as I go along.. I too copied down Seraphim's feeding schedule , then I tweaked it a bit to fit my needs.. been working great..
take care of dem babies... you proud pappa.. lol

using the same soil as u got any tips with it its my 2 run with it seems to be holding up

What the THC Community is all about! Helping each other get the best from our medicines. I was asked once, would you be proud to have a business selling marijuana? I replied, without hesitation "OF COURSE!" What I'm creating makes differences in peoples lives, including my own. An aid in everyday tasks, for some as vital as EATING, sleeping, FUNCTIONING. I praise God for this wonderful plant.

I know.. I kinda went off and sentimental there hehe.. I appreciated the open arms to suggest, advise and encourage. Check the ladies :)... Here's a 5 day progression. Not bad ;).
