matungo128 Hello, people. While organizing drawers, I found some seeds brought from Amsterdam over 2 years ago. I had been somewhat withdrawn for more than a year, but finding them encouraged me to see if they could be saved. The main idea was to learn a bit about DWC hydroponics and see how the plants reacted to a standard hydroponic fertilizer, which I have in abundance for my hydroponic garden on my balcony. I mainly grow tomatoes, and from what I read, their nutrient requirements are very similar. The goal was to spend as little money as possible, and with a fish tank aerator, some used paint buckets, and some drain taps, I had enough to set it up. Less money than I would have spent on new soil, considering I already had all the pH and EC meters and nutrient salts at home. If possible, I will try to keep the EC and pH values as correct as possible using only these nutrients and pH down. I will see over time if anything else is necessary. In the description, I only put one strain to avoid affecting the statistics since they are expired seeds; I only listed the one that sprouted. The seeds in question were: Sensi Seed bank: Super Skunk x2 and Jamaica Pearl Royal Queen Seed bank: Amnesia Haze Good seeds, all in my experience. Out of the 4, only 3 germinated. The Amnesia Haze and the two Sensi Skunks. Of those 3, only 2 thrived, but I will keep you updated next week.

matungo128 After a few days under a low consumption tube for 24 hours, they ended up in the pot with an air pump and 2 good low consumption lamps for 18 hours a day. I did this to be able to control them a bit easier, use less water than in the original container, and also to see if the 4th seed that never opened would finally sprout. My cabinet has 3 sections. One for 24 hours with LED low consumption tubes for germination, one with 2 low consumption lamps for 18 hours for mother plants, and the large one for flowering, which I also adapt for the previous veg stage by changing the lamp and the schedule. I'm attaching an image of my old indoor setup, but it serves as a reference. Now I placed the filter outside the cabinet and at the entrance since I adapted the extraction and vented it outside, also removing the extractor from inside. I no longer have odor problems and I manage the air intake without germs or dust.

matungo128 I'm already in the flowering stage but with a mercury lamp for 18 hours. I put the meter in and I hope to remember to take photos so I can keep track of the temperature and humidity. In the photos, you can see that one of the seedlings got stuck. And after a while, it died. The other 2 I put in some paint buckets, but I made the big mistake of using plastic paint buckets, and even though I cleaned them well, some parts still had the product stuck. I thought it wouldn't affect anything, but the first few days were terrible and almost impossible to lower, reaching values over 7. After a while of struggling and changing the water several times, I decided to switch the buckets for some water-based paint ones that turned out spotless after cleaning. But since they were bigger, I had to modify the net as well. But that's for later.

matungo128 I was still using the original buckets. The pH kept rising even though I changed the water several times. They were a bit weak in the stem, but with a little help, I was able to keep them standing.

matungo128 This week they made a big stretch. And they were able to get rid of the stem supports. They grew so fast that I had to raise the net a bit in a hurry.

matungo128 Already in their final buckets, nice and clean with fresh nutrient solution, and this week it was time for apical pruning. Because of the size of the buckets, I had to modify the net again. This is the third time in a week, but this one will be the final one. I hope I don't mess it up. Another week that gave a good stretch. The pruning of the Super Skunk turned out perfect, but out of eagerness, I also pruned the supposed Amnesia Haze even though there was little room for the scissors. I thought it was fine, but after a few days, it got stuck, I suppose due to my mistake. It ended up looking a bit weird, like a FIM and a prune. But there was a big difference in the following days. It makes me doubt if it was my bad technique or if the Amnesia really reacted differently. The pH with the new buckets, although it rose at first to 6.5, stayed there and didn't go up any more. I tried to lower it a couple of times, but it went back to the same point, and I kept monitoring it, and it never passed that measurement. It stayed there for over a week, and in the last few days, it dropped quite a bit, but by filling the buckets only with clean water to make up for what the girls drank, it stabilized at 6.1. I didn't think it would vary so much, but you learn something new every day.

matungo128 Last week of Veg, some LST and a few apical cuts too. Keeping everything close to the net. No complaints since everything is looking super comfy. Drinking a lot of water and topping up with a few liters every couple of days.

matungo128 Already in Flower. Pre-flowering incredibly. The super skunk shot up terribly and I barely have space to move the tops. The other one is growing but at a very fast pace. Good thing I didn't extend the veg period any longer since the net is completely green and they still need to stretch. We'll see how it continues since I have limited height. After a few days in flower, I had to bend some tops so they don't stretch too much towards the light compared to the others. But the strength of the plants the next day is already lifting them back up. For now, super happy. 🙏

matungo128 For now, they keep growing super strong. The LST I apply almost makes them stand straight again within days. I thought they weren't going to stretch much, so I didn't tie them to the net. It's too late now. We'll see how much they stretch. I can still raise the lamp a few more cm, but it's getting tight.

(Thanks for the comments, friends. It's been several weeks, and I've been taking a lot of photos and jotting down what I've been doing on paper, but I haven't had much time on the computer, and I'm still getting the hang of the website. But the idea is to catch up soon. That way, I can show off the growth they've had. 😁)
