Thanks Doc! I am definitely diggin the beds and will never go back to pots again. The beds are just too easy and yield too damn much to use pots anymore lol..

The ladies are gettin fatter by the day!

I feel you I got my wifi flipped in coco beds last night
The growth from beds is crazy def one of the HIGHEST yielding methods i see

I just might change my whole room to rock pure beds soon :surprised

How much and often are you feeding em?

Hell yeah Doc! I still needs to get my hands on some wifi. One of the few that has still eluded me lol.

I am feeding them every 3 days. The coco is nice and moist on the 3rd day. Not too dry. I can see myself switching it up to every 2 days soon. My beds only have 5" of medium. I honestly see no point in running more than 6" of depth with the beds.

I have actually started running a new watering method and the ladies are loving it! I am giving each bed 10 gallons of just water with Floralicious plus first. I then wait about an hour and run 5 gallons of nute mix through each bed. My theory is this method will prevent any kind of buildup in the beds. I cannot remember exactly what I read, but aparently giving the plants just water before feeding allows them to soak up a bit more food. All I know is it's working lol. I would love to see photos of your bed Doc.

i have heard/read the same about the pre-watering. i'm in beds also, soil though. its def something i'm gonna try out. are you using the same amount of overall water as prior? just splitting it into 2/3 and then 1/3??

Yeah agree with you there ive been waiting for a while to finally here, its my first run with them thankfully I see 2 phenos :)
Ill snap some pics when I get the chance

Thats cool every 3 days with em I feed once a week Im planning on bumping it up there drinking more and more
You said your feeding about 15 gal. to them is that per 4x4?
are you getting any runoff with that?
 
Got ya bro.

Oooohhhh yaaaahhhhhh!

How would I go about getting my hands on these genetics?

Gotta wait for the bean release bro!

Can't wait to see the Wifi in the beds bro!

I was trying to feed once a week, but the perlite really narrows the days down.. Did you mix any perlite, or straight coco??

I feed 10 gals of water then 5 gallons of nutrient mix about an hour later..
My reasoning is to give the roots a nice rinse then hit em with fresh nutes.. They seem to love it and I get adequate runoff this way also. That's per 3x3 bed.. I had a bunch of 3x3 trays laying around so I used them this round.. next round I am building 3.5'x4'x7" beds. The extra room in the bed will make all the difference I think.

Sorry for the delay on photos fellas! I will try and snap a bunch tonight..

Respect.

Watering first and following with the nute mix after is by far the best method for nutrient absorption if you have the time. This is especially true with plants that are especially dry and in need of a drink.






Next round I am building 3.5'x4'x7" beds. The extra room in the bed will make all the difference I think.

The extra bit of depth and width will increase your yield quite a bit. 3x3 to 4x4 is a big jump. Next you can go 5x5 with digital ballasts that have the extra lumen boost for the last few weeks!




You're doing great work with these cuts, bro! Thanks for taking the time to document everything in such detail.


Peace,
Alien
 
Super sick work Surfr! Keep on killin' it brah... :rock
 
Well I some how got infested with root aphids. I really think they are coming in the bags of Roots Organics.. maybe not from the warehouse per say, but they are being infected at the grow shops. They definitely halted bud development for a solid 7-10 days. Fucking little bastards from hell! I got my hands on some Met52 and poked about 80 holes per bed and filled each hole up with the Met52.. It's been 3 days since then so I am hoping in about 7 more days they will start to bounce back a bit more.. Only time will tell..

Anyways, here's some photos.. All the plants are on day 43. I am taking them all to 68-70 days to help make up for any time lost from the aphids.
