Except for pH and garden friendly fungicide (more concentrated and less expensive version of hydroguard), they, have been running exclusively on clonex cloning solution @1.2 ec since they were first cut.
When i transplant i will change over to my standard technaflora nutes and ramp to 2.2 ec by 12:12. For me nutes are nutes, a necessary evil, which i don’t pay much attention to, except for ec, pH, beneficial bacteria....
@Randomblame and i are trying to figure out how to get enuff uvb without damaging the plants. I will be mentioning uvb on this thread, but we are stumbling through the dark on how to make it work...not as clearcut as red/deep red/far red...one of the issues is how to control intensity...rb is planning to add dimmable ballast to his t-5s, i’ll do same if i can figure out (with his help) which ballast to use on my 2’ and 4’ t-5s, AND how to wire them.
The reptile bulbs are great for acclimation, but just don’t have the intensity for ramping up; the agromaxes are too strong if you don’t have lots of height to manage intensity.
I’m gonna be working on a DLI approach (same target intensity per day, but spread over full lightson period, allowing for lower intensity at any given time, to reduce uvb damage).
The 96s are fucking great for veg. The color temp is about 3500k, with that huge blue spike...and those reds, with addition of supplemental far red, should do well in flowering...i’ll get a peek at this in about 10 days when i turn on the far red for the mothers of these clones...will run for both emerson and initiator effects....
