It literally sounded like a gun being fired in the middle of the night…Damn i would have shit myself hearing that, lucky she's ok...phew! :P
Are you going to scrog for your next grow?
Yeah the LHS girl will be really nice, will be some fat budz for sure.
Your totes look really nice, do the lids on yours seal 100%?
The totes i have are stupidly tight, will make cleaning them out a pita.
Do you run live or sterile?
I thought if nutes were changed weekly, would it be possible to run a complete bloom cycle without having to remove the lids?
I recently wondered this for I'm very close to building my UC system, if the water is always clean and at the right temp i could simply control everything from the control bucket and top off bucket/tank couldn't i?
Still plenty of time for it to go tits up (Aussie slang).Ah thanks for cheering me on brother so appreciate it.
Ha i would never feel guilty for having a good run, paying attention to the main variables pays dividends
I enjoy the DIY stuff, building the new system is fun, i almost have everything i need to finish and it's going to make growing so much easier.
Ah thanks for the answer regarding water changes, i was scratching my head about that until now.
Hi mate. Nice to hear from you. I do have to go down the line today so being i have asked for advice, i should take it when offered!Gday mate seems like u doin alright manHave u got a ph pen yet? Normally with heat or light stress you see a lot of cupping tacoing of the leaves where as yours seem to be yellowing off down the bottom of the plants aswell dunno mate just guessing really hope all is well in your world
Nah not advice mate just guessingHi mate. Nice to hear from you. I do have to go down the line today so being i have asked for advice, i should take it when offered!
I am sure the regional hydro guy will be happy to help me out.
Let you know how we go.
Yea mate u want ya ph 5.8-6.0 for flower and ppm would be 500-600 a lot of people go a lot higher than that but I’d keep it on the lower side til they recover your away now need testing tools mate good move getting em Also U wanna put your feed in then ph it as the nutes mess with the ph normally dropping it a touch I findAlrighty then.
Got my trusty Bluelab Truncheon and pH test doodad.
Among other things, we have nute lockout as a result of a hideously low pH.
In the interest of honesty i need to post it for future reference for others. The reading was a consistent 4.25pH. Consequently EC reading on the Bluelab Truncheon was in the Phuck all to Geez I’m hungry range, between 100-200ppm. Nice for babies, not nice for big muthatruckers looking to smash those flowers out.
Doing a steady water change out in between frothies and pH up to about 4.8. I need to get it to high 5s.
Do i then feed to get my ppm up into that high hundreds range?
Got it to 5.6pH over a couple hours, ppm around the 400 with a kelp foliar feed for good measure.Yea mate u want ya ph 5.8-6.0 for flower and ppm would be 500-600 a lot of people go a lot higher than that but I’d keep it on the lower side til they recover your away now need testing tools mate good move getting em Also U wanna put your feed in then ph it as the nutes mess with the ph normally dropping it a touch I find
Nah u owe me nothing mate just trying to help by the looks of them I’d be feeding for a while yet mate they will fatten up a fair bit yet don’t take note of days they always go overdue also I’d ease up on the foliar spraying now buds are setting that’s me though each to their ownGot it to 5.6pH over a couple hours, ppm around the 400 with a kelp foliar feed for good measure.
We are at day 72 since germ, so probably not a lot more feeding to be done. Waited 10 minutes after the nute feed b4 final pH and ppm reading above. I will most likely monitor daily being we are so close to harvest.
I feel like a bad weed daddy but hopefully it will turn out ok.
Thanks for egging me on. Looks like i owe you a smoke.
Gotchya. They filling in nicely. Used my first lot of CC nutes up w that feed today. So those almost half litre bottles don’t quite get u to the end of a 4 plant Auto hydro grow.Nah u owe me nothing mate just trying to help by the looks of them I’d be feeding for a while yet mate they will fatten up a fair bit yet don’t take note of days they always go overdue also I’d ease up on the foliar spraying now buds are setting that’s me though each to their own
Yea @GNick55 has some good vids on bud washing never done it myself but after seeing what comes off em I might give it a go this time aroundGotchya. They filling in nicely.

Got my next lot of nutes on the way, (Cyco). They supposed to be here today but as long as they arrive next 7 days we will be fine.
And no more foliar!! Might just give the buds a gentle wash at harvest?
And they have thanks to you JLTG. Winning everywhere today. Girls happy, even the poor looking leaves are outstretched looking for the sun. Just had my rental inspection pushed from late Dec to mid-late Jan which means these girls will be able to finish properly. 14 weeks is about Jan 9 and I could possibly sneak a few more days after that. Brilliant. Essentially gives me a month from here which should be spot on.Yea @GNick55 has some good vids on bud washing never done it myself but after seeing what comes off em I might give it a go this time aroundYa plants should pick up a fair bit now you got everything sorted
