BCN Critical XXL

First Grow

2 Seedstockers BCN Critical XXL in 3.5 gallon buckets (with 2 seed sticker maple sherbet x pre’ 89 skunk) RDWC, using Advanced Nutrients. In a 4x4 tent, intake with filtered 4 inch adjustable fan, and exhaust with ipower 6 inch fan directly attached to ipower 6 in carbon filter covered with a pre filter. Hot air is exhausted outside with 6 inch round duct that is insulated. 6 inch booster fan added to help air flow about 8 feet from carbon filter. Mesh carbon filter over outside end of exhaust for smell and keeping things from coming in duct. Using Master Grower feeding schedule. Seeds were germinated in Rockwool cubes under 2 foot 4 bulb t5 fixture and ha a regulated heat mat set to 78 under them. During vegetive stage used 2 350w viparspecta full spectrum lights. During flowering removed one of the 350w lights and replaced it with a 450w viparspectra that has a veg/bloom switch, that was set to bloom. Also added 100w led 3 setting bulb switched to bloom (red) in a reflecting socket clamp to increase available lighting throughout tent. DWC buckets all have 3 inch oxygen diffuser grow stones. 2 are connected to a air pump and the other 2 to another. The buckets are connected by 1 inch drain/fill bulkhead fittings and black tubing. Inside each bucket is a 1 inch screen fitting because I had problems with the roots being sucked in and causing flooding. Water is at about 8 gallons and circulated with a best buds 170 gph water pump.
