Mr. Magoo Grows Glue-Gelato Auto

7/10 FUCK BLUE LABS!!!!! I have been waiting over 10 days on anything from them on my RMA for the 90$ ph pen that was supposed to make my life so much easier.... Crap right out of the box would not cal on the 4.0 solution. When i contacted them, they were not surprised it seems and told me to return it to amazon where i bought it. Explained i am past the return deadline <30 days> since i had been piecing together my supplies and building this grow tent for months becasue of being disabled. So they said they would gladly replace it and sent me RMA information. Was like well ok i guess ill deal with it and maybe delay a few days while shipping. Nope few days later i send another email to get a reply that they are working on it. Then i finally get an email more than week ago that rma was pending and they would email on the shipping.. NOTHING SINCE THEN Calls go to a generic voicemail regardless what time of day , they are Aussies. So I bought a cheap vivo sun pen, and well that was just craptastic also, so back to old fashioned GH liquid ph testing .... SORRY ABOUT THE RANT MATES!!!!! I am in process of setting up all the 5 gallon DWC and verifying i'm not going to flood my tent in the process. I ran all my air tubing, got buckets in relative position, though i am short 1 grow light at them moment im trying to scrape the cash together to get . But the girls look great I think ... the two upside down Betties look healthy. One of them looks a lil thin and not have the beginning of nice red in stem. Second set of leaves coming out so i really want to get in the pails today. Being visually impaired , having the complications i do from my Brain Tumors, well lets just say things go slow some days . I have 1 bucket with Nutes and ph tested and PPM lil on the high side but trying to follow FASTBUDS feeding guide, was the only GH expert guide i could find , and being they are a seed site that specializes in autos .. well figured good place to start. I feel like the schedule is a bit strong but .. again cant know until i get going ... I will post all below along with my horrible taken photos https://2fast4buds.com/news/general-hydroponics-feeding-chart-usage-guide ************************************************************************************** Well Major Flooding and power outages postponed the moving to new homes, but just finished up . This was really the first time i really took closer look at the root structures from the rapid rooter pods. NOTe : ZERO nutes were used up until now. Literally my well water which happens to be quite pure and ph even, was the only source aside from the rapid rooters, im a fan boy of these now cant wait for next drop whic is going to be Big Bang Auto , So all went well, was slightly nerve racking doing 7 separate buckets for nutes to prep and being slightly OCD, i was very careful with measurments for each bucket and testing followed. I allowed the buckets to sit with nutes in it overnight with plate on hole, and tested ph in the morning to make sure i was in range. BEING BLUE LABS SUCK BALLS , Im still waiting on my $90.00 ph meter but have gotten handle on the general hydroponics water test kit. But being someone who is visually impaired , both with colors and other various fun shit from brain tumors, it was quite laborous to measure and rmeasure 7 separate buckets.... , THAT BEING SAID .. I know understand the value of a nice fallponics setup with res. On to the stats PH in the buckets fell into the waht looked to be 5.5-6.5 range falling on the yellow green more than orange yellow, if you are familiar with GH test kit you know what i mean , the ppms were 700 ish which i know folks will say is high but again IM FOLLOWING fastbuds grow formula as a trial to benchmark and adjust as needed. Figure within 24-48 hours i should see a reaction in change to nutes from just the pods in some water. Right now 7 of the girls are under one cali extreme 500, with one being delivered Friday barring any crazy delays .... then will have twin extreme 500 . Read interesting article about UVB yesterday because been researching it for add on for my cli lightworks light, they now sell a uvb t5 ad on. BUT the article kinda debunked the whole theory and said actually doing more harm than good. Hmm ... definatly gonna try to find more on the topic Ok so mark the date 7/13/21 in the pot and the race is off. Next few weeks should be fun. I am homebound so i can keep close eye on them and gonna setup timelapse camera for kicks andgiggles
