Hoping that this week will not be a tennis match with my PH and my nutrient solution. Last week I saw my solution drop a full point in a matter of hours - consistently. I also ditched the PH up/down dosers crutch two grows ago, and I am not missing it as the intel is far better without them. IMO PH dosers do not give you real-time feeding feel from your plant - yet they adjust your PH to the "Perfect" level. Less is more in this craft, and in more ways than not. There is a balance between technology, automation, efficiency and most importantly - humans. If we removed the human element out of a grow, the product will be inferior, right?
- trichome check showed mostly cloudy, with a few random amber if one looks hard enough.
She’s ripening nice and reservoir running fairly normal for late flower. Wonder if that zero water filters-gone-bad caused my major PH crashes.
Fed her KookBloom dry only this week and now in a 2 day flush. Should be about 10% amber.

Grow Questions
Hydronautstarted grow question 2 years ago
I am in final flush (DWC) of ILGM Zkittlez Auto, and finished almost a week early (topped at day 20). I have lab-style grow room/cabinet that maintains humidity, nutrients, etc. with little deviation to schedule/plan. Will an auto finish faster if it can get to preflower faster?

Those are looking awesome for ILGM autos.. I don’t think you’re ready for flush yet or chop. Those look like they got another 10-14 days IMO. Unfortunately, you’ll find wide ranging phenos from seed to seed, especially with autos, and even more so from ILGM in my experience. Good job tho but don’t chop early and lose a great harvest!
ps youre trichs photos are of the sugar leaves. These are not a reliable indication of maturity. You need to be checking calyxes/buds.
Hydronautstarted grow question 2 years ago
I think I started my flush early. Can one take an in-progress DWC flush (2 days with GH FloraKleen) and start feeding again as to let her to bulk a bit more? Then start another "final-final" flush in 7 or so days? Will she get bent on me?

I would think you are early enough to stop it. She will be hungry for sure. Good luck 👍
Hydronautstarted grow question 2 years ago
I wish I found this earlier to add to my question above, but any thoughts to the validity/science of this statement attached? The claim is flowering starts in autos on vegetative maturity/size. Horse pooh, or does hydro(speed) has some impact on when autoflowers start flowering?

Usually auto plants in hydro flower earlier and finish quicker then grown in soil. The reason for this is you feed the plants what they need and they can take in the nutrients quicker and easier then in soil. But you have to keep on top of the reservoir because mistakes show up fast when you make them. All ways of growing have there pros and cons.
Hydronautstarted grow question 2 years ago
I'll be checking more often based on what I see, but anyone want to play the trichome game? Best guess to how long for 10-15% amber? I'm currently day 66 ILGM | Zkittlez Auto | Breeder 10-14 weeks.

Day 80 you will have 10% and at day 84 you will have 15%.

Hydronautstarted grow question 2 years ago
6 days ago, 350ppm constant but PH starting dropping hard. Did nutrient change and things stabilized for a bit at 250ppm. Yesterday, same thing occurring with PPM/PH. Roots are fine, PPM now at 200. Is she being underfed now at this stage of flower? Lower PPM more? Start flush?

hey there OuterBanks, you're alright all the way up to 400-600 PPM, but if it aint broke dont fix it (and double check your ppm meter is not broken and correctly calibrated) . My advice is dont be like these noobs that " flush " in hydro , you dont need to flush more than a day before the chop, that's actually one of the reasons why i like it : you get real precise with the flush . Hope this helps ! 🚀
Hydronautstarted grow question 2 years ago
5 gallon running stable at 200 PPM. PH casually ticks down, but not tanking. If I am following the PH/PPM dance should I knock the nutes down until I hit equilibrium? Is one guessing at the end because of root mass and reduced bucket volume doing whacky things?

KushGANGanswered grow question 2 years ago
Hello i don't think you need to reduce the nutes. To have less fluctuations of ph i use Tri-acid ph down which helps to regulate ph. Then you can use silica like mineral magic which helps to stabilize your solution and have less variations. Hope it helps you. Bye

@CRiSPrGrow,
Much appreciated! New to GD, but been goofing for a long time. I’m really into the science of growing, but the BS throughout the web gets old; thanks for chiming in. Sometimes you gotta ask questions to gauge your audience. MF da man. Great on the Science Channel.

68 F through the whole grow. Optimal for growth to oxygen levels. 60 F or less last two weeks to squeeze some extra diamonds from the mine. You’ll need to insulate your bucket if you running CO2 and keeping temps in the 80’s with lights on.
