Here's the 3x BPP 1 gal's from seed, #1/3/4, #2 was a male and got replaced by the 1 gal Blue Pyramid clone.

Shorter BPP4 was pretty well done and smells alright, only one I kept a clone of in this bunch. #1 & #3 could have used another week+. Will lose some yield off those, buds aren't quite as tight as the smaller one but still not bad for 1 gal pots. Good yielders but nothing special otherwise and 10+ week strains, into the hash bin for those two after weighing them

BPP 1, 1 gal, 64 days:

damn didn't realize u were going that long in flower! how long do you take your JTR?
Just that one Blue Ripper x Blue Dream went long, it was from seed and must have had some haze in there, long runner for sure! The JTR came out at Day 66 and can come out faster. JTR was at the end of the room with 22w/sq. ft, could have come out around day 60'sh otherwise. Cheers.

Just had a look around and wholly shit that was a lot of pot for 600w. 13 plants in 1/2/3 gal fabrics, total of 28 gallons of medium and should end up around 25-26 zips, close to 1 oz. per gallon of medium with 8 strains. The COBs are keepers :D

Here's the harvest pics for each plant, had to split it:

Blue Ripper x Blue Dream 3 gal, Day 60:

So much goodness!

That 3 Gallon JTR looks white from the half up. Wow.

Great work Gro. Thank you again for sharing.

I've done both. What's on your mind?
Well... im very interested in an 8 site recirculating dwc system since it suits my space quite well. But ive heard that sites furthest from the res suffer from nute dillution, as the plants closer to the res tend to suck them up first. Cant recall where i read that...

It rdwc tends to be problematic that way (or in other ways????)... i would probably go with and ebb and flow table... the only draw back there is plant count... i would have to go over my limit to maintain the yield i need...

Anyway, i guess im just wondering what the pros/cons are for rdwc and what are the best opitons in terms of pre-built systems?

A properly designed system will deliver nutes and water evenly to all growing sites and you will want to control the temperature of the water with a chiller to keep it cool.

Bare root hydro is very finicky and doesn't tolerate wide swings in pH or EC well or gladly.

Larger res volumes help a lot but require more nutes.

Beware root rot.

Those sum up the reasons I shifted away from RDWC.

Fair enough.

What are your thoughts on flood/drain or ebb/flow hydro? I hear it is the simplest method of hydro, but it seems that the same ph and root concerns would apply?

All the same bare root issues apply.

I'm having good luck with Tupur in ebb n flood, seems to be a best of both worlds solution.

Had to google the tupur medium and found a thread here that you posted in about using 2 gal buckets on a table... not drain to waste??? The water returns to a res?

This sounds very appealing. How many plants on a 4x4 table?

Link me to that post? I forgot where I said that!

Yes, flood and drain back to the res. EC and pH very stable.
