First DWC White Widow Auto

Everybody has true leaves and a giant taproot. They're outgrowing the tote and are getting an upgrade tomorrow. The current one has an arched bottom (manually watered to be safe), and but the next has a flat bottom allowing for some water, making up for no dome. I started to bring the humidity and temp down slightly. I added a little rapid start and am cheating their light hours to slow/bulk up my first 4 - they had extra stretch on day 1-3 in the rooters. Substantially sturdier bases on the two that skipped the towel (however after a week they've evened out). That's the forever plan. I started a low dose nutrient/calmag mix (using RO water). They'll go into hydroton tomorrow since everybody has roots popping out the sides and I'll add 1/3 dose fungicide. I don't have enough daylight CFL bulbs to cover them in the tent without dropping the lux, so the big light is going on too. Next time I'll start them in a small tent under the CFL and switch to tubes for veg. A dual shop light fixture means I can pop in a second bulb when needed. Easy, cheap, fast solution. Between that and germinating I'll save a bunch of time. Moved into their tent on 3/12 and the leaves exploded overnight. The rooter bottoms are just touching wet medium so I'm not bothering to top water. The 25gal mix was perfect on the first shot at 5.7pH and 600ppm. My RO water starts at 7.5, so I buffered it with 10ml of down/up and only needed a 10ml boost to get to 5.7. Happy, leaving it. Instead of Hydroguard I'm using a 1:19 dilution of Southern AG and adding 1ml/gallon to start (upped it to 2/gal when water felt slightly slick. Fixed it) The plan is to do a nutrient/pH addback at least every two days (maybe my pH buffering will have helped). I'll be pulling samples from each plant and (hopefully) making an averaged-out replenishment concentration with pH balance once I see their nute:water intake. Damn you Excel, every freaking project! Week one in the tent complete. A few corrections made but for the most part we seem in good shape. I quickly realized how much minor lighting impacts have (and I want to keep as much light as possible) so I started trusting my light meter. Made all the difference and no guessing.
