Strain: Ghostrider OG received from @Aeroknow
Lighing: x2 1000w 6" air cooled hoods
Air: passive intake exhausted outside
Nutrients : maxigrow for veg - maxibloom for flower
Medium: hydroton
I'm half way through this grow but wanted to document it for Aero. It's a great plant, this is my second run with her. She's extremely hardy. I vegged them for 4 weeks in 1 gallon mesh bottom pots filled with hydroton. I also filled the tray with hydroton, this was a big problem that almost killed the plants on day one of flower when I had to transplant them. After a couple of days they perked up like nothing happened. I had to cut off 60+ % of the roots because all 18 plants roots grew together, I was not expecting such massive root growth. Live and learn. I am now a few days shy of 28 days of flower.
Here are previous pictures up until this week which I will post a video for the 4th week and do a weekly update from here on.
These pictures are in weekly sequence.
Day 1 veg
Day 7
Day 14
Day 21
Day 28
This is when I had to transplant to the flower room, it was a mess.
This is the ebb and grow buckets. The 1 gallon mesh bottom pots are suspended over the 2 gallon ebb buckets using 1 1/2" foam board. No extra medium other than the hydroton in the mesh pots.
Day 1 flower - the plants almost died but recovered surprisingly fast
Day 7
Day 14
