I have quite a bit of the gh 3 part flora series nutes but I'm doing this grow with the floranova bloom & cal mag only nothing else just to see for myself tbh this is actually so easy I'm gonna have to buy a fresh quart (about $20.00) as the stuff I'm using is about 5 years old & was dried up I had to add a little water to loosen it up this grow is kind of paving the way as to how I'm gonna do things in the future I think the key to success here depends on strain choice you want something that has good growth characteristics as well as a quality finished product I'm hoping this sour'd is a keeper outside of the $20.00 clone I'm not out much & I think this little experiment is giving positive results & I know it looks like I have no life but being retired gives me time to do this one change I'm gonna make is a remote res. that fits in my 3x3 room to up my nutrient capacity or it might be outside the room with 2 hoses going through the wall connecting the res to the bucket I've used a single waterfarm & remote reservoir last summer it makes a 3 day camping trip possible as well as helps maintain a steady ph. nutrient capacity was 6 gallons I have a lot of ideas but they will come into play in future grows I'm gonna keep this simple & im hoping someone lurking out there finds something useful here the 400 hps. is nothing special it was laying around after it was replaced with a led you don't need the newest & fanciest stuff this Scrog & stand would accommodate about a 5 gal container & soil too

I fed today @ 890ppm. last feeding was higher @1110ppm. when I checked the nutes this morning the ppm was 480 so she is feeding I'm really hoping the finished product is quality cause she is a breeze to grow

my Scrog are nothing fancy & I don't know if I use them correctly but they make canopy control so much easier & I now enjoy those "stretchy" strains I used to avoid I pulled the sour'd clones out of the dome & sat them in a dim cool spot to acclimate in an hour if they don't droop I'll advance them soon meanwhile I'm developing the drip column for my newest & tallest dwc yet getting an aquarium pump to push nutrients that high is a challenge my goal is to only have to top off about every 5 days if all goes right I'll be putting my experience into this one which will be simple to maintain compared to the one I'm running now

I replaced the old garage sale air pump with a new one from the hydro store & I picked up a gg#4 clone the air pump really puts out a lot more than the old one this grow is so trouble free just gotta remember to top-off every morning at coffee time lol this grow is putting the 2- plant doubledream grow to shame when the doubledream comes off 2 sour'd babies are taking their place & gg#4 is going back in this grow under a 315 cmh I traded the last of the doubledream for I'll be picking it up in a few weeks

the doubledream didn't help my neuropathy or back pain everyone loves it but me so when the deal was offered I took it I still have it going under my led but I'm pretty much done with it I'm hoping the sour'd is more to my liking as I would like to keep it & alternate harvest between this & the gg#4
