one light one plant one pound....

[bassman999]

I think 60* lights off and 75* lights on is good enough, well Ill see at least as thats what I am doing.
I think I might have been better off with lights on at night to make it cheaper to keep them warm. Im already doing it this way for 12 days so Ill stick with it

it has been pretty cool outside & 2 of my walls are made out of styrofoam type siding but heat is a must the ceiling is made of the foam stuff as well my nutrient temp is 57 degrees where I topped is putting out new growth & finally they're starting to wake up when I topped the left plant I got a little close but it looks like she is gonna be ok & now the start of a lengthy veg time hopefully this time my results improve

 

[horribleherk]

the new growth where I topped them continues to sprout I've gotta feed in the next few days I'm gonna up the ppm up to about 550-600 they look ready to feed a wee bit more my thoughts are turning to building a small closet for my t-5 so I can be getting the jump on the next grow

 

[horribleherk]

I'm thinking the ice is broke & they're finally acclimated to the waterfarms also my top leaves are perking upwards in the direction of the light I'm gonna leave the ppm. alone as if it isn't broke don't screw with it I think since retiring I've too much time on my hands & as a result giving too much attention to my plants so I'm gonna re-rout my efforts into a cabinet for my t-5 lamp had I done this sooner these would be considerably farther advanced than they are now

 

[bassman999]

They are looking stronger and fuller now, I agree the ppm you are at is doing well

They still seem a bit pale to me. They need nitrogen.

If you use Cal-mag I'd add some.

 

[horribleherk]

yeah 2 m/l per gal the color is definitely light like I've got a mild case of lockout ph was 7 ish but last few days I've got it down to 6.1 maybe start with an additional 1.5 m/l cal mag per gal

In veg I'd push the pH down to the 5.6-5.8 range and EC no lower than 1.6, or 800 ppm on the 500 scale.

they're ready to kick it up a bit clones seem to take nutes better than seedlings after I overfed the my-ultra x bubblegum seedling in my first waterfarm grow I'm paranoid of over feeding these probably could of been fed a bit heavier a week ago probably I upped the cal-mag & added micro & grow now @810 ppm. this morning they're perky & angled slightly towards the light new growth all around

Better! The spots on the leaves are nutrient deficiencies, so more nutes are in order.

because of the way my res is setup I have to make adjustments,let everything circulate at least 3 hours & then take a sample I'm getting it figured out I need patience & I need it low lmfao once dialed in these should respond in kind this grow will give a full account of the cob light but myself I've seen enough my next light will definatly be a cob of some sort just don't know which vero,citizen or Cree

Once your nutes are in range, pour some thru the rocks around your plants. This will rinse anything old away and replace it with fresh nutes.

drained everything & made a fresh batch of nutes I'll take readings in a few hours the old nutes were in there since the 18th. so fresh nutes & higher ppm, fresh cal- mag will no doubt be an improvement

getting back to the headband I thought the babies were gonna die but they've turned around & im glad they did everyone loves it & it's gone except what I kept for my own smoke but more important than that my perseverance paid off instead of scrapping it I nursed it along not sure if I'm gonna do another grow or not but at least I have that option I'll clone as soon as they're a bit better

 

[horribleherk]

in spite of the nutrient change I got an inch of new growth the ppm ended up @ 830 & the ph @ 5.8 so I'm good to go I'm pretty happy my biggest concern is the mold I got in the last grow & I've got to be on the lookout in case it returns I'm gonna spray all my pourous surfaces with fungicide in case there is any spors lurking about I should of done that while my room was empty

I had some very similar I used outside for my plants and are very effective if they get turned on lol.
My friend turned it off in daytime and got drunk and never turned on at night and we got our trees snatched
