On day one of week 6 (7-15): G4 seems to be the only one that continues to show some kind of deficiency. The height of which is 17 inches and is the tallest, they range from 12 to 17 inches. Despite this system is held together by chicken wire and bubble gum (no actual chicken wire used), and my serious lack of knowing what I'm doing, I think for the most part the girls are looking good. Added a picture of the grow room, fortunately with growing autoflowers we can have windows. You'll be able to see unlike most indoor growers our biggest restrictions are room for width not height. 7-20: Been a few challenges. Adjusting proper feed flow, occasional leaks, dropping pH meter in res, loosing dropper in bottle of nutrients and such. Yet it's been going well, Fast Buds Gelato growing great. Gelato #4 grown about 6 inches in the last 4 days, other gelatos growing wide like a thick bush. Definitely will look at going with a 1 inch drain in the future. 7-21: End of week 6... Had to spread plants further apart due to the widespread growth. Gelato #1 is 18 inches tall, Gelato #4 has grown to 24 inches tall and all are about 32 inches wide. Excited to see what unfolds this next coming week. Not listing the amount of pH down due to I'm adding about 1 1/2 gallons of water a day, due evaporation and they are thirsty girls. Using 3 gallons jugs for water replenishing. My well water is about 7.6 pH, adding 14 ml of pH down to each jug to get me close. Unfortunately our pH meter got dropped into a reservoir, so it died. Waiting 7 days for a replacement to arrive, so in meantime I'm using a pool test kit which by no means is accurate yet gets me in the ball park. In the near future plan to have an extra pH meter on the shelf for such mishaps.

Grow Questions

Captainonthegostarted grow question 3 years ago
My EC is higher then recommended or I'm reading it wrong. I have been told to add water to my reservoir to lower EC, yet with my well water the EC is already high. Can someone help enlighten me? Using a hydroponic circulating system (DWC with a top feed).

The girls are beautiful and very healthy, congratulations on the work. I'm curious about this gravity feeding system of yours, let's exchange information about it. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

@eriinho, I'm using a standard Bubbleponics bucket raised off the ground just above reservoir height. I cut the sight tube on the side to slightly more than 1 inch below the basket. Put a tee in at the level to create my gravity drain to feed the reservoir. Then I used a $11 pump from Harbor Freight to pump my feed lines. The solution height in the bucket is a little adjustable by sliding the tee up or down on the sight tube. Flow can be adjusted to do 1 to 4 buckets at least.

REGARDING THE PROBLEM WITH THE SIZE...YOU COULD JUST KEEP THEM IN THOSE BUCKETS (OR A LITTLE BIGGER ONES) AND KEEP THE FLOW IN CHECK WITH A RDWC SET UP. BUT THAT WOULD BE A PROJECT FOR YOUR NEXT GROW BC DOING THAT DURING A GROW IS POSSIBLE BUT LABORIOUS. GOOD LUCK WITH EVERYTHING โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™Œ
