hope nothing major has happened in the last 150 unread messages... can't keep up
Day 40:
CDLC still drinking about 1.5 inches of water a day... crazy. Topped water off at 550ppm at 5.7
@Or_Gro lowered the temp on the picture before taking it:
Those roots...
Forum Stompers look like they're finally coming out of their stunting, looks like dropping ppm from 700 to 500 helped.
to everyone here, is this calmag deficiency? to my untrained eye it looks like calmag deficiency.
i added 5ml extra of calmag into the dwc bucket last night just in case

So I finally did the initial cuts for my manifold on my BH.
Decided to clone her as well. We will see if the clone roots itself. Ive had luck with cloning so far but I dont use a cloning agent to help so who knows if she will root.

nice work - why did you leave the cotyledons attached?

Never considered taking them off, they eventually fall off on their own and arent hurting anything so I just never thought about it. The looks of my plants has never really been a concern for me, even when I am taking pics. Guess I dont consider asthetics like most people. I just look for functionality.

I am not great at diagnosing but it does look like a pretty nasty case of calcium deficiency. Might be something else with it. Like I said, im no expert. You run qbs?

Is there a simple way to tie down plants and be able to take the lid off on the 5 gal buckets ?

i cut a pizza wedge out of my lid to get into the roots so i don't have to take the lid off anymore
you can see the black duct tape covering the seams of the pizza wedge slice at the bottom
this is what i see peeking inside the wedge:

Of course you can rig up some type of trellis structure above plant...pvc is your friend...I’ve made plenty diff types, but don’t like them.
As for tying from below here’s my current method: tiny holes drilled around rim of bucket, w small zipties, pull tops down with wire and tie. This also has disadvantages...when you remove lid you have to release ties...but unless you have a catastrophe you don’t need to remove lid during entire grow. Just drill recoverable access holes and use a $20 pump for changing water.
I have found that 8-gal ez stor buckets (less expensive, but same size as current culture buckets) are the shortest profile dwc buckets (means something when ht limited). Their lids have a part that opens if your access port(s) isn’t big enuff.

"When a plant is outside, they get a fair amount of UVA and UVB, typically in a ratio that is around 5% UVB and 95% UVA"
"It takes more than just random UVB. We have found certain frequencies of UVB make the plant react more vigorously than others. We have reason to believe that UVA is also beneficial. While it doesn't stimulate THC production, it penetrates much more deeply than UVB and may stimulated trichome production, which makes THC possible. This is why we have UVB lights with multiple "soft" peaks at the right frequencies, as well as strong UVA output in exactly the same part of the spectrum that the sun is strongest at. This gives you a sun-like glass tube that you control."
