Hi all. Spankin' new to farmer and farming. This is my first yr I'll be going through cycles from start to finish. I've veg'd plants in the past but thats about it.
Systems I have:
Top Drip to a flood table
Outdoor Coco Coir in 5 gallon Smart Pots
I've encountered some problems and made sure to clip clones before I sent these into flower because I thought I'd get some males. Well come to find out, I have all females. Then, things got hectic. My #1 & #2 biggest problems through my hydro grow were never flushing enough and being a wuss with H2O2. I had planned on being able to take out some males and when they all went female I got too crowded in my tent and yada yada, I'm down to 3 of the 8 plants I started with because of pythium and pruning in flower. my res went too hot, I had too high a nutrients, dirty as heck everywhere and man... I feel like an idiot but all n all... 1000000% I've learned A LOT through the hard way and I'm positive it'll carry and this next round is going to be great.
I LEARNED! After losing 5 and I think another is about to turn... 2 of them are now developing buds again, MY PPM ACTUALLY DROPPED FROM YESTERDAY O_O O_O. Ph is perfect, they're drinking... OHH, I switched to Hydroguard too btw. Biggest change to the system since I was running H2O2. I should have followed suit and listened to the well known farmers that "H2O2 SHOULD ONLY BE USED TO FIX ISSUES". Cleaning n stuff. I'm so happy to have beneficial bacterial, not a sterile environment, and seeing the girls responding so positive.
Don't get mad, get smart :). On the real tho.. Thank you SOOOO much to all the people on this site that have put their time into making suggestions, giving advice and being cool cats. I dig this community.
God Bless Ya'll. Happy Farming.
