Water change day .. Drinking. 2000 ml each per day.. So 6 days on the nute change...
*******************
2 Buckets done .. 5 Left . I may leave the caramel cream autos until tomorrow , they are drinking slightly less per day , but the big girls are drinkers for sure ....
So getting better at mixing nutes, bought giant bag of disposable droppers, god damn so much easier for me . I have visual impairment, and shaky hands from the brain tumors. The visual impairment is bad, but the shakes come and go . I normally get a few good rips on the Dr Dabber Switch before i start to help.
But the mixing went much better . less mess and i simply pitched the pipette after each use . YEs i know wasteful .... but for me , for now its what i have to do. 1 pipette for each nute for each bucket, they are cheap enough. This way not contaminating anything, and at the amount im mixing, 3 mils - 20 mils each .
Biggest problem i have, and i guess maybe not a bad problem ...
I have 4 girls on one side of the 4x9 tent, and 3 on the other. The four on the one side are all Glue Gelato Autos and my lord I can not get to the back left side bucket at all with the amount of foliage. So moved a bucket to the other side to allow me to drop in a pail to do a siphon out and refill. See pictures...
So I am 10000% upgrading to the 13 gallon x 8 fall ponic system after this grow .....
THANK GOD the caramel cream autos are half the size and 1 of the glue gelatos is slightly smaller on the right to allow me to move around the tent slightly, and im a lean dude....
But i am surprised each day when i check the progress just how far they have come for my first try ...
Still have low expectationsfor crops and yields , but am loving the time learning and getting to know hydroponics.
I TOTALLY get when the OG growers say just listen to them they will tell you what they need, legit all i have done is feed, maintain enviroment and observe.
positive i can not make the same moistakes i made so far net time just by learning my lessons and understanding better the purpose for each Nute and how to spot when the plants are asking for them .
Well have atleast 2 more to do tonight most likely will get all the gelato glues done
Cheers
Check out band i recently turned on to .. Fortunate Youth on Sugar Shack ...
One of my girls is completely upside down. She is righting herself, BUT much of the root is OUT of the rapid rooter....
Should i attempt to split a new pod and move or just leave and she will sort herself out ?
Hi there, Sometimes it happen.Nothing much to worry.You can safely transplant into desired medium and covered with dirt.It should be bounced back.Happy growing... ✌️
@homerjgangia,Thanks Homer :D The Glue Gelato looks like something i will very much enjoy , literally jumping into the deepend on this setup and grow for me. I have some Big Bang Auto and Gorilla Skittlez auto waiting for these guys to get setup in perm home which will be single dwc 5 gallon Pails
@MisterMaGoo, initial setup can be costly, but in the end its well worth it and you should see a saving.... i hope all goes well for you brother, in your grow🌱, in your health and in your future...much love☘️✌️
@Mr_Pgrow,Thanks so much man, .. Visually Impaired, Brain Tumor Medication for me, hoping to eliminate much $$ although the initial setup has cost me a pretty dime
Que maravilha ✌️
Boa sorte no cultivo e aproveita o desenvolvimento 👍
E no final que tenhas uma grande colheita 🌱🌱

@MisterMaGoo,
Doing a top feed is very inexpensive, gives the girls a head start in life and you will not have to adjust solution height in the bucket. Check out: Gelato - hydro my first grow, shows good detail.
@Captainonthego,I absolutely did, was somewhat convinced not to get for reason of only really being useful for beginning before roots are set, or as was explained to me by my grow supplier. Probably would have helped establish the roots but honetly just from yesterday to today after my dark period of 6 hours, two of my plants i was concered about having root rot, just exploded with beautifil white creamy bundles below . I dropped my water levels down to about 1 inch below netcup on these girls.
Amazed how fast each day these Autos grow
I have 5 glue gelato autos and the 2 others are carmel cream autos which were freebies. Totally didnt expect to be growing 7 plants, figured 4 ... but i got another cali lightworks 500 to use when they start getting bigger and ineed to split them up. For now the little sunflower setup works great . i spin them to keep from getting bends but now they have leaves really taking off they are not stretching at all. Have to say thecali lightworks COB system is crazy effective compared to what i have used or seen otehr use in the past. looking forward to getting 8 ladies flowering and a full canopy.
Will probably do a top feed for next batch which is going to be big bang autos and gorilla skittlez autos.
I prefer the liquid pH drops myself, more reliable and easy to aim for a plain yellow. btw, the Flairform drops are better value, you get twice the quantity.
@DoDrugs420,posting new pics today, so far so good, lil issues withcob being too close and fighting water Temps a tad bit, both mea culpa and addressed.
