JuanO This was a first test run for my hydro setup. I just used random bag seed and started with 13 plants in total. Only 3 ended up being female, which is the reason for all the dead space😉

Day: 97

Amost time to start flushing. Hoping for a little more fattening up. Gave them a last nute feed and should be good for the rest of the week.

ChuChi Everyone looks happy! I’m too intimidated of hydro lol

JuanO

JuanO Nah dude! I find it much more reliable than soil...and they grow way quicker! I think I’m hooked.

After having some major issues with WPM I finally have these ladies back on track. Gave them a good trim and fresh feed today. Buds should fatten up over the next couple weeks.

3 years ago

Day: 51

Flowers are starting to fluff up nicely. Worried about the 1 at the back on the left as I’ve noticed some discoloration in the leaves. I’m thinking this was due to the resevoir running a bit low on feed - hoping the fresh feed from yesterday will solve this issue.

Day: 50

Refilled the resevoirs with PH of 6.1 to 6.2. Re-adjusted the scrog. Cleaned them up a bit by defoliating. They should be good for the next week of flowering.

Day: 47

Today marks day 26 of flowering. Hoping these 3 ladies will be stacking those buds in the coming weeks. Some branches are getting way too tall so will have to adjust the scrog and do some minor LST over the weekend. Happy Easter!

Day: 36

Removed all the males and unfortunately ended up with only 3 females😪...to make things worse, 1 of the ladies ran completely dry and is looking dried out and shitty at the moment. Defoliated and also gave fresh nutes and water with Ph6.1-6.3. Hoping for a speedy recovery and nice fill-out over the next few days. This was just before their bed time so they also a bit sleepy.

Early flower...day 29 in the hydro setup.

3 years ago

Day: 28

Removed another male plant today. At the moment I have 8 plants in this 1.2x1.2m so not minding the extra space. Some plants still not showing any signs of sex. Brought in the scrog as some are getting really tall. Also topped up resevoirs.

3 years ago

Day: 27

Got rid of 3 male plants today as they were clearly showing. Some unable to tell still so more to follow. Atleast freed up some space.

3 years ago

Day: 26

Day 6 of flower...will be removing all the male plants in the next few days. Some are already showing signs of sex but others still need more time to be sure. Getting a bit crowded in here so will be good to make more space.

3 years ago

Day: 25

Still looking good even though my neighbourhood had some unexpected power outage for 2h. Atleast they’re flowering so I guess a few extra hours of darkness won’t hurt too much.

loadediaper747

loadediaper747 God bless you if you manually change the water in all these reservoirs!

JuanO

JuanO Nah, it’s not too bad. It’s one of only a few manual tasks required. During the week it doesn’t take up much time at all.

loadediaper747

loadediaper747 @JaunO glad to hear it’s not too labor intensive. I have 6 reservoirs and that’s a enough for me 😂

Day: 24

They are definitely building up that early flower stretch. Happy to see some ladies starting to show those white hairs today, but still too early for most of them.

Zeyberlin

Zeyberlin How far should I have my 100watt led from seedling?

JuanO

JuanO With 100watt I would think you can have it pretty close, like 20-30cm. Most importantly, cover it with a propogation dome of some sort as they need high humidity during seedling stage. Once they have nice roots, you can remove the dome.

Zeyberlin

Zeyberlin Is a sf1000 suppose to be like 1000 even though lists pulling 100watt out the wall same advice and ty in advance

Day 3 since flipping to 12:12 - signs of sex organs starting to develope on the biggest plants. Hopefully not to many turn out to be male. Supercropped some of the taller growth points to have an even canopy.

customgrow_420 How many plants is there

JuanO

JuanO There’s 12 at the moment, but there will be less soon as I planted random seeds to test my grow setup. I still need to remove the males once I am able to tell them apart.

Day: 21

Today marks 3 weeks since I planted these seedlings in my new hydroponic setup. I’ve never seen cannabis grow this quickly and have to say I am amazed at the difference between hydro and soil.

3 years ago

Day: 20

Just completed the first proper defoliation. Fresh nutrient water feed. Removed all waterpumps and misters/sprayers - DWC hydro airpump and airstones currently active only. Fixed 2 airstones which wasn’t functioning - this visibly stunned growth in 2 plants. Will let them veg for 1 more day before flipping them to 12:12 so I can start separating males/females.

Day: 19

Still vegging nicely. Will have to do some defoliation in the next few days. Happy to see the canopy forming as planned.

Prosmokeproductions Looks amazing man.

Day: 14

After 2 weeks vegging, I supercropped the ladies today. This should slow down top growth and hopefully they grow even canopies. Vegging them undisturbed for the next week and will defoliate them on the weekend.

3 years ago

Day: 13

Checked PH and refilled levels for all plants. Each plant now in their own resevoir. 4 black buckets only have airpump with airstone going. Silver buckets also have extra aeroponic misters. Looking good and working great so far. Time to veg on...

loadediaper747

loadediaper747 Just a friendly tip, start planning for space in the future. Are these all feminized? If you have a long veg cycle all these plants will be fighting hard for space as DWC can produce monster plants! Great setup tho. How you do reservoir changes with such huge amounts of H2O?
