Bloodletting's Perpetual Micro LED DWC SOG, Multiple Strains

Setup:
Lights: Veg/Clone/Flower: 90W UFO LEDs
Vent: Negative pressure drawing air in, PC fans pushing air out, carbon filtered.
12 week perpetual setup, 4 seperate cabinets progressively bigger
DWC with hydroton, and rockwool cubes
Airstones with pumps
Lights are kept inches away from plant tops to prevent stretch since height is very limited
Veg/ Clone Lights are 24/7 for two weeks then to 12/12 once preflowers start to show

Nutrients: PH Perfect Sensi Grow A + B, PH Perfect Sensi Bloom, A + B, Voodoo Juice, B-52, Big Bud, Overdrive

Now to what really matters

Strains: BagSeed, G13, Northern Soul, Black Sugar, Afgan Kush, Amnesia Lemon, and would have been some White Widow x Big Bud but they sent me crushed up seeds, how fucking rude!!! Threw em in water anyways but poor girls didn't have a chance.

I plan on planting these at 4 per square foot, once put into flower chambers, but for veg/ clone I will really be cramming these babies together

I have babies that are 13 days old, I transplanted from soil to my DWC and they are finally bouncing back. The rest of the seeds have just been started in rockwool, some are starting to sprout at 5 days since germ!
Here is after transplant, it started to droop from too much water in the dwc


DROOOOOOOOOOOOOP



ROOOOOOOTS- I adjusted the roots and they are now INSIDE the net pot

Flower Chamber for flowering weeks 3-7



I WILL POST MORE PORN BUT LETS GET SOME SUBS FIRST ROLL IT UP

Come on rollitup, 100 views and no replies, I need to get some feedback. Well here is the real reason I wanted to start up up this journal. Here is a pic of my flower room for flowering week 7-11



Come on in don't be shy, lets get some feedback!

Here are some more pictures as promised.
Family photo, about half of the plants that are planted right now

G13 starting to sprout

Root Porn: Day 14 since germed, Day 5 since transplanted from soil to DWC


Growth is starting to really pick up, she's getting over the shock of transplant





Please let me know what I can improve on, as I don't have much growing experience
I will be taking more pictures later today, but I'm going to wait until some people poke in to say hi, I feel like I am talking to myself here!

sorry to here about the white widow x big bud seeds sounds like a nice cross considering big bud is a little low on potency and the widow makes up for that. where did you get the seeds?
I love the idea of Leds hopefully they can make them cheaper one day I think they will become more popular then. more lumens then cfls and less heat and energy then HID.

The next grow Im doing hempy buckets but if I ever try a "real hydro" DWC is gonna be it. Wont the roots tangle in that container? havnt looked into it much.

isnt it annoying seeing all the views and no comments?? maybe it also counts the views of guests?

i

oh ya and the seedlings look good. they should start taking off pretty soon. their FEM seeds right?

Got the seeds from seedsman, and yes, I am so bummed about the WWXBB, soooooo bummed. Thats actually the plant I wanted to try first, but we cant win em all I guess.
The heat issue is why I had to go with LEDs, and I can say, at 6 inches away, im at 75 degrees which I think is great

Im pulling pots out and re adjusting for now so roots dont tangle, but if they start getting bad i will cut the plant total down a bit.

Annnnnnnnnd it's so annoying not seeing comments, but you gotta start somewhere

Thanks, and yes everything is female except for those seedling that are 15 days old, they are still unknown since they are from some wicked bud I got.
The rest of the seeds are all female, so I am using the bagseed as more as a learning plant, but if the genetics are good I will keep her alive

Little update, PH is steady at 5.6 Temp @ 78 RH @ 75
PPM @ 50, I'm thinking tomorrow I will raise up to 100 PPM because it looks like they are wanting it. What do you think?

More pics coming in a few

The girl on the right is starting to pale quite a bit, should i set PPM at 100 or is that still too high?


Comparing Veg/Clone container to Flower container

Nice and healthy looking seedling, she really is loving the DWC

A shot of her roots, very healthy looking, and growing so fast since i transplanted



This is for weeks 3-7, should this be enough light?



Since things are going so well, I am throwing the rest of my Northern Soul and G13 in some water, hopefully they all germ.



New pictures wont be up for a few days I'm thinking, until something exciting happens. Please let me know what you think, and how I can improve in anyway.

Here is a another little update

Temp @ 78
RH @ 80
PH @ 5.8
PPM @ 55
All but one are looking really healthy, but I am thinking up upping the PPM soon, maybe a little later today or tomorrow, I just want to wait for a bit more new growth and a little more yellow to appear

I will take a picture of the veg/ clone chamber since none have yet been taken to show light and how close it is to the seedling.

Here are a couple shots of veg light and how close it is, I measure and its actually 8 inches away



Also, the two G13s I thrown in have popped after only 16 hours!!!:MoreNutes:

Okay well today was a productive day, I finished making the all the containers, planted many more seedlings, added more seeds to the water to be germinated, so right now we got 10 seedlings, and 6 seeds germinating

Tomorrow the 4 seedlings are going to be getting a nute dose at 75-100 PPM with Sensi AB, Voodoo Juice, and B52,
what do you guys suggest for PPM, obviously lower the better for now? The rest will be in RO water with some voodoo juice until third set of leaves appear

Pictures will be up later tonight or tomorrow.

Well the last two days have been pretty good. Plants have grown 6 new leaves in the past 48 hours, and looking great, a little bit droopy but once again I think I had my water level too high, I lowered it and hopefully they perk up

PH @ 5.6
PPM @ 101
Temp @ 78

Also, seeds I had put into rockwool 5 days ago seem to have stopped, so I checked one out and they are drying out faster than all hell, Ive been soaking these once a day, and I fear some seeds wont make it but I will find out. What can I do to make them stay moist?

Pictures coming soon

I have bad luck with rockwool as well. fill up a cup with soil water the soil real well and put the cubes on top of that. the cube will take moisture from the soil and stay moist much longer.

rockwool holds alot of water but dries out really fast
