Clones from a friend:
Week 1 in DWC:
Week 2 in DWC:
I believe the strains are 3 Kings and Glue Lemon Haze.
TLDR;
In a 2x4 tent, I'm using 2 Igloo 5 gallon water coolers as my reservoirs. 2 x Tetra Whisper air pumps model 77855 feeding the top feed with the GH Farm kit, as well as "Bubble Bubba" bubble stones in the res. Nutrients are the GH Flora Micro, Gro and Bloom using 1tsp of each per gallon. I'm monitoring the water temp and it stays about 64-68 F. Air humidity currently at 54% but varies by about 10%. Tent air temp is currently at 75 F but gets down to around 65 F at night. And yes, before someone asks, those are speakers in the pictures playing music during light hours. My light is a Mars Hydro "Full Spectrum" LED 2ft x 4ft TSL 2000. I'm running them on 18/6 schedule now and 25% - 75% brightness. I started with 24/0 but they didn't seem to like that too much and showed significant improvement once I gave them an evening break. I'm just using tap water for now, it is sub 200 PPM. I may switch to softened water once I change out my brine tank from sodium to potassium chloride. On order is a couple 2ft CFL T5 fixture that will hold a pure UVA 25% and UVB 75% bulb and the other a 10K finishing bulb, both from ArgoMax. I know some say the 10K is far from necessary but I want to and some UV and needed a counterbalance anyway so, figured I'd give it a shot. I have been pruning a little here and there, so far only leaves that were dying out, curling up, yellowing, etc. Is this too soon for pruning?
How am I doing? Recommendations, tips, criticisms? I see the claw in week 1 but that seems to have gone down. The plants seem pretty light colored to me. Should I increase one or all of the nutes? This is my first grow so I'm still a noob and learning the plant / leaf behavior to hopefully spot issues before they become big issues. I also tried adding some off-the-shelf liquid root stimulator but after a couple days, the plants looked worse, so I changed out the res solution; it was using "ferti-lome" 4-10-3. Maybe I just used too much or it's not ideal for cannabis, hell maybe it is expired and went bad.
Also, is it just my inexperience talking but does the one on the right look funky for ? The left one looks very standard to me but the other doesn't even look like any plants I've seen. Then again, I've only ever seen enough plants to count on 1 hand.
