I have started my second hydro grow... Paradise Delahaze. It has been in the waterfarm for 10 days. Not roots have hit water yet. Ph is 5.8 and ppm is about 150. She is getting light from my two 600w hps lights. Not directly under more.. Better pics tomorrow

I appreciate the feedback sir. I will be posting newer pictures. I'll include my setup and all of that. I have Cottoncandy from delicious seeds, super silver haze and liberty haze from (Barneys I believe) that should be here soon.

I'm watching bud. They look good. From my experience that much hydroton takes a little bit to get a nice solid root structure going but when it does expect some explosive growth (strain dependent of course).

Thank you sir The dark devil grows nice but i wouldnt buy autos again if those grow goes well... the fast and vast has been a nightmare... not sure if it was my rustyness or my seeds.... i have one of them that is pretty dense and super crystally but fairly short. the other ones are VERY leafy and are kind of airy... i just got a 800GPH pump and some air stones for the WF's. They have tons of holds in the bottom and yesterday was teh first day i noticed roots. they were pretty long so i am guessing sunday they actually hit water.

I'm coming across a bit of an issue here... I am getting my scrog screen ready but am stumped on an efficient way to fill the red back up. Draining is not the issue.. I have a low plant so going over the substrate will not be an option... Ideas??

The two younger plants are liberty haze and super silver haze. The other plant is my delahaze. She is about 33 days old. Not as big as. Would hope but I'm going to veg her until the other plants catch up to this size she is at now. Setting my screen up Saturday. She is at about 750ppm with the smaller ones at 450ppm. Plants are under 2 600 watt lights. 55% rh and fluctuating temps of 78-83 degrees. I Have a 435 com fan hooked up to the carbon filter which I can remove now that I'm thinking about it. There is no smell right now so it's just filtering unnecessarily. I use distiller water since I haven't found any RO locally. Is there a reason to put H202 in distilled? Any tips and tricks appreciated!

40 day old Delahaze still training her... Going to let her go until the liberty haze and super silver haze catch up to where she is at now... Really wish I could've gotten a screen on the delahaze... Flushing all three tonight.. Wish I had the funds to get my fourth bucket going now but I will wait... Anyone still interested? Otherwise this is a personal diary lol... Need to change title

People are looking at and reading the thread it's just like you say it's become more of a journal, if anybody notices anything wrong or if you ask questions you'll get a response. I just learned a bunch by reading this, how the seedilng stage takes longer, but I've always understood that hydro should reduce veg time, I've only ever grown soil but to be honest for day 40 from sprout/root they look like they'd be about the same as my dakini kush grown in soil, I suppose it is the longer seedling stage I'll watch your thread an see if she gets some more explosive growth that I would expect from hydro, maybe it's just a smaller strain. I'm interested to see bc I'm considering going hydro.
