Big Bud/White Rhino Grow - Aeroponics Grow

This is my second journal... third harvest. The rainforest has performed well. Right now I have 4 Big Bud clones in the RF66. The just came out of the clone box.

Hope you enjoy the grow.

Here are some more pics...

I have 4 Big Bud and 1 White Rhino in the Rainforest. I am planning to pull the Rhino out when she gets some more mass on her. She will be the mother of many babies ;)

In the small container, I have 2 Big Bud I started from seed from the first hermie mom. I am hoping I get a true female now from one of these two and can use her as a new mommy.

Here are some close ups. I am trying to look at the spacing between the new branches. I am going to set up the screen this weekend. Last two grows got too high on me. I am going to set up two saw horses on either side of the reservoir. Then I want to lay two 2 x 4s perpendicular to the sawhorses and lay some wire fencing across the 2 x 4s. Then I will train the plant as it continues to grow during the next 8 weeks of flowering.

What do you think?

Here are the pics for today. I built the screen for the SCROG out of 1x2s and plastic fence. I am going to veg these for another week or two and then switch to flowering.

All comments are welcome. Let me know what you think.

Here are some pics from today. I took some root shots to give you an idea of how they look in the rainforest.

The plants are looking good and healthy. I am thinking three more days of vegetative growth. Then I am switching to 12/12 for the lights and a transition nutrient solution.

Let me know what you think

hotness...im guessing your basement does not get very hot. Those roots look very healthy and alive.

I have a rainforest and use it for cloning/mothers sometimes. Screen is a perfect application for these things. Show us some buds pictures already.

Did you use blue light at all or just the hps?
 
also I think you could stand to put your light a bit closer to your plants. Especially since you took the time to cool the light so well.
 
also your initial round of pictures had your plants looking very healthy enjoying their environment.

Now you have a lot of leaf drooping going on in the 2nd round of pictures. How about an updates? :)
 
I'll start flowering in a few days. Right now I am only using the 1000W HPS. I am thinking about trying UVB. My other flowering chamber is 400W-MH & 400W HPS. The basement stays nice and cool. Plus there is AC bringing in fresh air to the room.

I moved the lamp closer to the screen. You are right that with such good circulation it doesn't put off so much heat. thx for the tip

I applied a foliar spray a little before i took the pics. The leaves perked up later. The plants are sucking up the nutes. The solution measured 15 CF on Thurs. Now its down to 10CF. I added CO2 the other day, so the plants should have all they need to be happy.
