Scotty, im follwing you. I have had g13 PE sitting here for quite some months. Ive been a bit busy with my other ones but after seeing this you have put it back on my priority list. will be germing them tonight.

Single use of blooms is quite intriguing. I will do some research on it.

Good looks.
No need to research it experienced growers have been doing it for years.. its also the same forumula as the Lucas formula except has better PH buffers..

what is your cfm on your fan, and what do your temps normally run at? do you have an intake fan? sorry for all the questions, i'm just trying to set up something similar
450 CFM Dayton blower No need for intake fan as the blower has plenty enough power to pull a gust of wind up from the bottom of the cab via a big ass notch i cut out the back of the cab on the bottom.. my temps run about 78-79 I keep my room cool with a Portable A/C..

That was the same blower I was looking at until I found out I had a stanley just sitting in the shed.

Scotty, do you have even drip coming from all the drip ring holes? Right now, I have 4 holes with solid drip and the 2 holes farthest away from the pumping column are barely dripping. I have adjusted a readjusted the pumping column and support tube multiple times. Ran the drip ring under hot water and all the holes are fine. Not sure if this is normal or not, but it's frustrating. Oh and I followed the exact setup directions given by General Hydroponics. Other than that everything is going well. Caught like 2 or 3 bugs roaming around on the hydroton. Going to cover it with aluminum once the seed sprouts. I wasn't careful when I added nutes to the res and was running at 500ppm with a pH of 6.4 when I checked this morning. So I flushed and corrected it this morning. pH of 5.4 and running 250ppm flora nova bloom. Gonna try the tap. It's a little under 200ppm.

Dont worry about a perfectly even drip it will spit more out some holes then others no worries just the nature of the beast ;)

I just checked the waterfarm again and the last 2 holes are spitting out little to no water. The other 4 holes are spitting like crazy.
 
Hey Scotty!

I have been lurking around since the beginning of this thread...I must say that you certainly know what you are doing. Just absolutely amazing!!!!!! Not to be a prick or anything, but I believe it's time for some new pics sir! :mrgreen::mrgreen:

I am officially tuned in my friend, keep up the excellent work!

Been kinda disapointed in myself fighting back nutrient burn should have just ran everything as normal but seeing that some had lack of nitrogen problems I was paranoid and bumped up my nurtrients up to 1900ppm ... needless to say she did not like it and now Im flushing for a week with straight water to try to get her back under control..:cry:

all well still going to get some good smoke out of her anyway..

Those are great looking buds. not good to hear about your nute burn. but youll get her under contral.

Yeah it may come around, I just keep kicking myself in the but for not flushing sooner .. she went from drinking 1.3 gallons of water a day to a half gallon.. roots have been damaged we will see how it go's over the next week if she starts to drink a gallon a day again i will start to intoduce nutrients again but not till she can at least drink her normal amount of water.. also have switched back to ceramic meatal hylide bulb in hopes of healing her..

Yup I was thinking the same.. they just started to turn here and there.. 2 days ago I was seaching all over for a single red hair cause I just wanted to know what color they were going to be and could not find a single one.. there just starting to pop out here and there now.. I was guessing they will all start to change pretty rapidly over the next few weeks instead of a gradual effect.. really interesting the way this strain grows, and the smell when brushing up aginst a bud is somthing else..
 
Whats your opinion on the CMH lights for a full grow? I'm really really considering of getting CMH instead of a MH/HPS system.
