Mate, that is spot on... Love it... I dont' worry about the little container in the top part... I just fill it full of clayballs and my cutting is in a small rockwool cube.. It seems to be stable enough... The extra oxygen gives the babies and extra grunt of nutrient.. But I do have to keep an eye on my pH...

Just a quick update to let you know how my girls are going... I reckon they are going great guns... I think the 2 bottles of homemade C02 are making a little difference, they have only been in there for 3 days and my plants seem happy... It is a little bit of a hassle and when the odor gets too much I will probably have to abandon the idea as the carbon filter will be left on all the time...

I know I need heaps more light in there it makes me a little cranky knowing I can't afford to buy it just yet...
Patience is the virtue...

More pics when more things start to happen....

Those are some healthy looking ladies, if I understand correctly you have a dwc/ drip system. Do you have a single hose feeding the plants or spray heads? +rep to you!

Ah so you mean no worries about the net pot? Just find two containers that can fit together and fill the top with the clay balls and placing a rockwool in the middle. You say you are using drip/dwc setup. So the thing missing in my picture would probably be a water pump to pump the nutes into the rock wool and having air stone pumping in the rez. Thank you for the help. The set up is much more easier from your help. (Y) Peace.

Yeah thank you for that. I'll be waiting for them. What time will you be able to upload them?

I've had a couple of people ask me exactly what sort of system I am running so I thought the easiest way would be to show you... Apparantely its like a DWC but I also have a hose that feeds from the top as it takes my plants a little while to reach the bottom of my pots as they are so large, but really this works for me...

Its just a double pot system, my hydro shop puts it together for me, with air stones running to each pot... I also have a water pump running to each of the eight pots via this little hose, you can see it in the photos, there are also airlines and a return line for the water drainage to go back to the reservoir... Too easy really...

My method is really very simple... I am experimenting with suppercropping and I have to say I have noticed a difference... Will post photos when the lights are on....

I am also using homemade C02 so we shall see...

Hello everyone... I just wanted to take a few more photos to see what the comparison has been since I a) turned the lights down and b) put the homemade C02 system in there... I reckon I have had some exponential growth these past few days... I am very impressed..

Stay tuned for more... Please give me +rep if you like what you see

they are looking really nice. keen to see them mature. keep the pics coming. +rep

I really have nothing new to tell everyone except my plants are coming along nicely... Its starting to smell a bit in the tent now, so I have to have the carbon filter on all the time, but I am still going to leave the homemade C02 in there and see what happens...

I have had to supercrop a fair few of the plants as they are growing like, well like weeds, and I have to say I am liking the results there is clearly a difference between those that are and those that aren't...

Shall post more pics in a couple of days... Happy New Year All....

Heavy sativa influence on your pheno, looks like you'll need extra flowering time. Happy New Year and keep the updates coming

Hi Mofizzle glad to help you....

I guess the easiest thing I can do is give you a list of the things I am using....

1 x Ezi Tent 2m x 2m (Mylar Coated)

1 x 200mm exhaust fan, with Carbon Filter (The Brand is OdorSok)

1 x Pedestal Fan inside tent...Just for circulation..

1 x 1000wattt HPS Light with balast, not a digital balast, I don't reckon you need them but I would recommend 2 x 600watt lights instead as they are far more efficient and will give you extra coverage... I am upgrading next grow..

1 x Portable Air conditioner from Bunnings or any hardware store

1 x 60 litre reservoir

8 pot system with full drainage hoses back to reservoir

9 x Airstones with two airpumps to run them..A lot of air hose, from any pet store, (Bubbleponics,DWC, aeroponics there are heaps of names, for my system. Take a good close look at my photos... I will take more tonight to detail my system as much as I can...

180 litres of clayballs or volcanic rock,

1 x Waterpump inside the reservoir..

Thats pretty much all the hardware.... Except your timers and power boards and such.... I am running two boards and two timers, its really too easy....

If I can give you any more information, that I have left out, please ask me... Too glad to help, lets green this planet...

Here is the description of the strain from the website I bought it from... Thought it might make interesting reading....

Courtesy of buydutchseeds.com



In the mid 1990’s a legend was born. White Widow almost instantly appeared on about every coffeeshop menu in Holland. This masterpiece has set the standard for the “White” strains. Our White Widow grows tall with delicate arms. Buds are moderately compact in order to contain the copious amounts of resin. Leaning on the sativa side, the buzz is powerful yet energetic and very social.

º Packet contain 10 seeds

º Plant height: Medium Plant
º Stoned or high?: Medium Indica/Sativa
º THC level: High THC
º Flowering Weeks: 8/9
º Yield : 450
º Harvest Month: 8/9

Please have a look at my YouTube Vids...

I just had a look at your journal, nice job, but I can't find any photos of your tent... I mustn't be looking in the right place....

But you've got some nice little girls there, too... I have to agree with you, setting up the tent was an absolute bitch... I hope I don't have to move it cause I don't want to pull the bloody thing down...

More girlies should grow... More power to us...
