Good info on this threat.
I will be rereading it and planning my next set up.
Additional purchases are not happening this month.

For those who are buying the red bucks.
This might work also.
There‘s one drawback. The UV&IR are on the same powersource so manual flipping of selector switches is required if you plan to run both But at different times.

Some good progress.
I know i watered the autos (my first grow) way too little. ,7 every 4 days. The soil was so dry it just would not accept water.

these i’ve primed with 2dl and then giving 0,8 more to 1L/2days.
i missed a day so i gave a bit extra prior and they gained girdth.

Im adjusting my watering to 1,25L every two days and maybe up from that.

How does it sound to wait for the first amber pistril to switch to flush?
The due date of this Sensiseeds #741 should be at the end of this month.

Would this system work for a full tent grow?

growTOOL growDECK aeroponic 1.0 mit 98 x 98 x 5 cm

growTOOL growDECK aeroponic 1.0 mit 98 x 98 x 5 cm Das growDECK ist ein aeroponisches Erweiterungsset für alle growTOOL growTABLE und DUMA Fluttischwannen.
grownrw.de

from google translate

growTOOL growDECK aeroponic 1.0 with 98 x 98 x 5 cm
The growDECK is an aeroponic expansion set for all growTOOL growTABLE and DUMA flood table trays.
The lid allows up to 34 seedlings to be raised. These are hung from above in the lid using mesh pots. The roots are supplied with a nutrient solution from fine spray nozzles on the underside of the growDECK.

By attaching the aeroponic lid to the growTOOL flood table growTABLE, a closed irrigation chamber is created in which the attached roots of the plants must be permanently supplied with nutrient solution through spray nozzles. The cable ring for this is located in the growDECK. The pipe openings for the nozzle insert are already pre-drilled. All you have to do is screw in the nozzle bodies.
Depending on the size of the growDECK, 4, 11, 16 or 24 sprayers must be mounted on the LD-PE pipe Ø 16 mm.

So that the growTOOL flood table and lid fit perfectly into the corners of the grow tents, all four corners have been provided with recesses that can accommodate the tent poles.

To help with larger loads on the growDECK, support rods (optionally available), positioned in the middle of the flood table lid, offer an additional option for even more height stability and the elimination of sagging.
On the underside of the growDECK there are 2 or 4 places where the rods are inserted. On the opposite side, on the growTABLE flood table, there are also recesses for the rods.

With an aeroponic growing system, a fine spray of nutrient solution is constantly applied to the plant roots. This "permanent humidity" must take place in a closed system without allowing moisture or condensation to escape to the outside. growDECK and growTABLE are perfectly coordinated system components - MADE IN GERMANY.
The ideal design and functionality have been researched and tested for a long time. The growTOOL Aeroponic System has proven itself through several years of successful use by a large number of satisfied growers and gardeners.

The advantages of the growTOOL growDECK at a glance:

Planting holes Ø 55 mm, suitable for standard mesh pots.
Lid made of light-tight material, white top reflects light, black bottom blocks, roots hang completely in the dark.
Ø 16 mm LD-PE irrigation pipe snaps into the grooves in the base of the lid, cable routing without additional fastenings.
Thanks to the groove on the outer edge of the lid, the growDECK locks itself on the growTABLE flood table, preventing it from slipping to the side.
High lid groove prevents splash water from escaping from the flood table.
High dimensional stability thanks to grids and beads.
No sagging thanks to additional support rods as height stabilizers between deck and table.
Similar to the growTABLE, the lid also has a round recess at each corner for the side poles of the grow tent.

Temps have been 29c with 33 huminidity.
with 1L everyother day watering.

fed the ladies 1,5 hrs ago with 1,6L water and now have 23c and 50% huminidity. EDIT: WELL I HAD THE LIGHT AT 25%.
The plants look invigorated. Im expecting massive burst in girth if I just solved an under watering problem.

does anybody have any suggestions on additions on the Canna nutrient line to increase buds/terps?
Honey, bigbud, terpinator?
how to get that last inch?

and if i order the growtool aeroponic system then whos nutes i should go to. My canna terravega is about finished as it is.

One way to add stretch imo is to use a Silica product (increases drought resistance) from when you start nutrients. After a couple weeks, let them bone dry and drought them every day but not 100% dry. Up the PPM from a light to aggressive feed by week 3. At week 3 with aggressive feed, keep her fed good and stop drought. She will spring up like a chicken. But, ultimately more veg gives a taller plant before flip and that is what gives you a taller plant.
One unproven way is to keep light distance far with higher intensity, forcing her to stretch farther to reach the light. Veg longer is the token though. Start a photo at the same time you flip a current grow and you’ll have a tall girl on your hands.

Also. Stick with Sativa dominant strains to get more stretch in stretch phase. But stretch is dependent on genes. Some stretch 2 weeks, others will stretch the full 4.

I suppose the par meter would tell you the correct amount of light for a stretch too.
how much should that be

download the lux app and use your phone. it's fairly accurate.
