White Widow DWC

[HempletonState]

Decided to start this thread to get some feedback on my room and also hoping other who have grown white widow can give advice to get the best result.
I am starting this thread a little late I am about to be entering the third week of flowering. Here is a run down of my room. I am running 2-1000 watt phantoms with 3- 4ft T5 strips around the perimeter. I have a automatic CO2 generator and bring cold air into the room with a 6" Vortex fan. The hydro system I run is the 8 buckets water farm drip ring kit with reservoir, controller, and circulating pump bucket.
I started with two mother plants which are the two noticeably larger plants in the picture which I took clones from. They vegged under the 4ft 8 light T5 strip on a custom flood tray for 4 weeks until they were moved into the flowering room.
Temps 82-65 temps go up when CO2 generator is on but it is not effecting the plants
CO2 levels get up to 1400ppm
excellent air movement
ph constantly metered at 6.0-6.2
Nutrients used are House and garden Aqua Flakes A/B, Roots Excellerator, Multizen, Bud XL, Amino treatment, Drip Clean, Top Booster, Shooting Powder , Magic Green (foliar spray)

Hebus you are going to have a healthy harvest. Those widows are going to be monsters. I grow WW only and my pheno is a real light feeder. Anything over 900ppm and she fries like a egg. Her pheno is also extremely short stretching with at most a 8 inch stretch.

Looks like you have everything under control and it looks great. Make sure and read all the information you can about HG shooting powder before you use it!

Thanks man glad to hear from someone who has grown white widow. I have been running the house and garden nutrient line and shooting powder for about 10 years now shooting powder is my absolute favorite product. How are the yeilds have gotten from white widow in the past

Looking good. I love ww and have had a few different strains but my current one is easily capable of 6+oz with 4 weeks veg. A note on the pH, early flower likes 5.6-5.7, mid flower 5.8-5.9, late flower 6.0-6.1. These different levels at different stages allow the plants to more easily absorb the nutrients they need more of at that stage. Early needs more N, late more p and k

I have a lighter yielding variety, but it more than makes up for it in quality. It's my personal smoke and I keep one or two flowering in 2gal coco usually all year long. Finishes to my liking on day 62 every time. Easily one of the most potent strains i've had the pleasure of consuming.

Started week 3 of flower on weds added and these ladies are doing lovely and responding to everything. Noticeable bud growth each day . Staying short which I like , co2 levels in the air getting to 1600 ppm and the ladies are loving it. They love their music.

Started week 4 of flower on weds and these ladies are loving life right now. I am seeing noticeable bud growth everyday and I have been pushing the limits with this strain and they love it . 4 more weeks to go and they are about to get the nutes that make the buds explode .

 

[HempletonState]

Lookin good bud! What ppm are you running?

 

[HempletonState]

Lookin good bud! What ppm are you running?

1650ppm and they are loving it ph 6.0-6.2

 

[HempletonState]

One of the plants..... has about 20 plus buds the size of a gallon container

 

[SnaFuu]

Damn nice!

wondering why my widows burn at 900+ ppm

 

[stonedest]

Yeah looking great, and damn, for week 7 those things sure still look like they're growing a hell of a lot!

Damn nice!

wondering why my widows burn at 900+ ppm

i have talked to a few other people who grew widow and they all had different outcomes with the ppm burning some people like you were burning at 900 others pushed the limits like me. I dont exactly know why my plants always seem to handle really high ppm i think its the nutes i run. i also unlike some people use nutes from day 1 and start pushing them early and it always works out great. they do burn a little but i dont flip out when i see it i always take a look at the room as a whole and only act if every plant is showing the same signs
