1st Time Grower, DWC

March 23 moved seedlings to hydrobuckets. Water level set high to touch rapid rooter sponges. Did OG Organics Nutrients to seedling strength -20% for DWC. March 24 Set up buckets for 1st time yesterday and getting brown foam in buckets and tent has a smell 24hrs later. Dumped buckets, sanitized everything redid nutrients to seedling strength -20% for DWC and ph to 6.0. March 25 Found more foam in buckets. Removed foam from top of water. Noticed plants had not moved and seemed to be in shock. I figured this was from too high of water level. So lowered water level to just below net pots PH was off, so I readjusted them to 6.0. March 26 Plants still seem to be in shock. I assumed it was from the rapid rooter sponges being soaked still. So I removed the baskets and placed them on paper plates and let the sponges dry out. Placed in tent with 55% humidity. While the sponges were drying out. I dumped and sanitized everything again. Mixed new nutrients, ph'ed and placed a air stone in the buckets. March 27 found more brown foam in buckets with a smell in the tent(with no plants in buckets or even in this tent) turned humidity up to 70% in 2x4 tent plats are in and put a little water on the paper plates so if a root stretched out the basket it had water to go to. Side note: I believe the foam is from stuff growing in 2 of the nutrient bottles used on this grow.

March 28 So I switched to General Hydroponics Trio, so I could save the plants and get fully thru the 1st grow. Moving forward I started at seedling strength but the ppm was only 160 and I was watching the videos from hydrobucket makers and it was suggested that at seedling stage u should have a ppm of 200 to 400 and when I saw mine was only 189ppm so I added a few extra drop equal amounts of each and got 252ppm. I PH to 5.8 amd placed plants back in buckets with water level at 1 inch below basket and by next day ph climbed some, so re ph to 5.8. March 31 I noticed the plants were getting what appeared to by nutrients burn. Leafs turning brown from the tip. So I drained and redid nutrients. This time just sticking to what the bottle said - 20% for DWC and PH to 5.8. We will see of they recover. Fingers Crossed!!!

April 4 They appear to be recovering!!! So happy! And got a new ph pen that actually works consistently 👌 old was hit or miss having to re calibrate 2 to 3 times just trying to ph 3 buckets. Added photos April 5 They look happy. Checked ph in am and they were at Left 6.2 Front 6 3 Right 6.2 Let them ride. I'm going to check when I get home, if it's over 6.5 I'll knock it down to 5.8. Checked water tmep and ppm Left 70°F /178 PPM Front 69°F /186PPM Right 69°F /176PPM. Since we are officially in veg I turned the light up. From 25% Seedling to 75% Veg. Just did it and left. So looking back now, hoping they don't get too affected by not going 50% for few days 1st then going 75%. Another potential mistake. Fingers crossed its not too bad... I changed the Ac Infinity Programming To This: 18hr light ON 6pm to noon Target 73°F 57% Humidity - Ventilation(OFF=power lvl 3 ON=power lvl 7 Ramping up in power as needed)(ON above 80% Humidity) - Humidifier (57% Low) 6hr light OFF 12:01pm to 5.59pm Target 76°F 50% Humidity - Ventilation(OFF=0 ON=6) - Humidifier (50% Humidity) Grow room(outside of tent) target is 70°F with AC Unit And a heater target 66°F 4X4 tent has 6.5 liter humidifier power level at 90% controlled by infinity Controller to 57% Humidity Added photos April 8 They are looking happy! I changed nutrients and I added a few additions to the nutrient line up. Took a flora series feeding chart and redid it in a excel spreadsheet take 20% off but seems a bit strong and since I already experienced nutrient burn and opted to do another spreadsheet sheet at 50% off and seemed more on point with what the plant were happy with. I choose to go with early veg on the feeding chart I made hoping i could make up some ground and kick the plant into high gear and make some time up in growth. So we will see. Fingers crossed l.. Bucket stats: 4/8/2023. 5.8/79°F/417ppm(left) 5.8/79°F/390ppm(middle) 5.8/79°F/354ppm(right) (I believe the variations in ppm is due to water level slightly different in buckets) The feeding chart I made from flora feeding chart but 50% down in measurements. Amd I highlighted the early veg I used on 8th https://1drv.ms/x/s!AmTQ-7u9iyH6kAf-TBMyCD2md-FJ April 9 Well this morning they don't look too happy leaf tips curling downward on 2 of them and nutrient burn on a few tips. So I decided to be proactive and change the nutrients again this time going with the seedling strength and also adding hydroguard, But the ppm is double what the seedling strength was that I did when I redid the nutrients last time. So fingers crossed they bounce back again. Bucket stats:4/9/2023 5.8/74°F/266ppm. 5.8/79°F/282ppm 5.8/75°F/259ppm (Made buckets closer to exactly same water level) Seedling strength using same feeding chart. April 11. Well the ladies don't seem very happy unfortunately. So moving forward i'm going to empty the buckets tonight and replace with just ph water for 24 hr. I'm going to redo my nutrient chart to 25% of the flora feeding chart and feed at the seedling strength again. These ladies are not being very open to going up in nutrients since the initial nutrient burn. I think it made them hypersensitive to going up in strength. We will see if they are forgiving. Lessons of a 1st grow. This one is probably not going to produce much. I should be on late veg nutrient strength. But going to see it thru to see what else we learn. To make the next round that much easier and better! Added a few pictures. I was hoping it got burned initially from attempting early veg nutrient strength and since I redid nutrients soon that they would recover fast like last time. But they don't seem happy with the strength still. The burn on the leaf tips seemed to have grown. April 11 Update. So when I went to empty the buckets I noticed the roots have a brownish look to them and the water had stuff in it. So sanitized the buckets and air stones and filled buckets and lowered from 4gal to 3.5 gal and put hydroguard in. Not sure if I should do hydroguard at full strength since it's not a nutrient but was unsure so stuck with 1/4 strength then Let buckets settle for a hr then ph to 5.8

They are still not too happy with me... Not liking the nutrient strength I choose again.. So after 24hrs of just ph water and 1/4 strength hydroguard. No change I thought they would appreciate just water and a root stimulate. But no change in root or plant mass. Looking like they are very stunted from nutrient burn. So moving forward I went with same strength as the 1st feeding that they liked. But I did it in a hurry before work and realized after the fact that I put that same amount I put before but didn't account for lowering the water level to 3.5 gal from 4gal. So end up being slightly stronger then before. I did add 0.5ml of hydroguard to each bucket. Also added 0.5 of bud candy to each bucket. But hoping they work with me fingers crossed. 4/12/2023 5.8/72°F/221(Left rear) 5.8/72°F/227(Middle front) 5.8/72°F/214(right rear) No sign of transitioning to flower yet. 4/14/23 Colorado Cookies recovered and jumped like a inch looking alot better! Overall Height 3.5" And I noticed that there was some growth in the root zone. But noticed there is something going on with the upper leafs. Runtz Seems to be recovering but still a little rough. Overall Height 2" But I did notice the roots mass did not change and they still appear to have the brown tint and seems to have gotten slightly worse toward the bottom of 6"net basket. I believe that's contributing to the slow recovery. Still looking alot better tho. Banana Purple Punch seems to have bearly changed at all. There's very slight growth in center. No change to root mass at all. Overall Height 1.5" Found some very helpful information on measuring EC instead of ppm and how to monitor EC and Ph. So will be doing this moving forward. I'm going to redo Banana's bucket to exactly what I gave the 1st time she was happy but this time accounting for the .5 gal change in water level. I'm also looking into if I can use the hydroguard at full strength on nutrient burned autos since its not a nutrient for the plant. But I need to fight the brown roots in runtz tonight. See if I can't get all three happy! And save this grow to a more acceptable outcome. Stats 4/14/2023 6.25Ph/72°F/222ppm(runtz) 6.33Ph/72°F/218ppm(banana) 6.28Ph/72°F/215ppm Cookies I added 1ml total hydroguard to all and added .05 total calmag to all and ph to 5.8 4/15 I changed the water on all buckets. raised the water level back to 4 gal on Banana since it has the smallest root mass. And put full strength hydroguard and full strength rapid start in all buckets amd ph to 5.8 and left it for 24 hrs. I made a floral spray of armor si at 0.33ml to full spray bottle. Wet em down good. Twice today. 4/16 I noticed Banana's leaf tips began to droup a little. So lowered water back to 3.5 gal and mixed the nutrients for 3 gal to be safe and leave ppm for cal mag and bud candy without nutrient burn. Added 0.5 cal mag and 0.5 bud candy. I trimmed all the burned leaf tips off, so I can see if and when it burns again. And since it was the best my test has looked yet I took a video and some pictures. But still need to figure out whats going on with Colorado cookies. Has spotty yellowing. Thought maybe light burn. So checked and raised like a inch or so. But there leafs below that are almost fully yellow. Like nutrient deficiency. Trying to read her but not getting it yet. gavw them a spray of armor si. 4/17 ph to 5.8 bucket stats.

But want to address the yellowing 1st. 4/18 I changed the water in buckets to just water with 50ml hydrogen peroxide 3% to 3.5 gal water and left it for 3 hrs. During this 3 hrs I turned both fans off and made a foliar spray with 0.30 ml gh flora trio and 0.25 cal mag and sprayed them down and turned the light off for 3 hrs. So after the 3 hrs peroxide treatment. I changed water out with fresh water and did my nutrient differently. I got the EC of my tap water whixh was between 0.19 and 0.23 between the buckets. Then I added cal mag to 0.5EC And added nutrients base and additions to a EC of 1.0. Then I added 4ml hydroguard to 3.5gal. And ph to 5.8 Banana 0.19EC 3.5ml cal mag 3ml GH Flora Trio 1.5ml Bud Candy 1.5ml Rapid Start 0.25ml GH Flora Macro 4ml Hydroguard 7.4ph 242ppm 517uscm 1.0 EC Cookies 0.23 EC 3.1ml cal mag 3.1ml GH Flora Trio 1.5ml Bud Candy 1.5ml Rapid Start 0.40ml GH Flora Macro 0.42ml GH Flora Gro 0.25ml GH Bloom 4ml Hydroguard Ph 7.3 235ppm 500uscm 1.0EC Runtz 0.22EC 3.2ml Cal mag 3ml GH Flora Trio 1.5ml Bud Candy 1.5ml Rapid Start 0.25ml GH Flora Macro 0.40ml GH Flora Gro 0.25ml GH Flora Bloom 4ml Hydroguard 7.4ph 235ppm 500uscm Ph all to 5.8 That was last night at 11:30pm This morning at 5:20am stats 4/19/2023 5.9/74°F/238ppm/506uscm/1.0 EC(Runtz) 5.9/73°F/232ppm/493uscm/0.98 EC(Banana) 6.0/74°F/232ppm/493uscm/0.98EC(Cookies) Ph To 5.8

4/19 After talking to some fellow growers on here (Roberts and Unkraut) and getting some needed advice I realized I was doing a few things wrong. I was mixing nutrients at 1-1-1 and not 3-1-2 npk. Which is why everytime I tried to up the nutrients the plants were unhappy and kept having burnt tips. Like I pointed out last week I'm measuring EC instead of ppm now. And monitoring PH and EC . I'm also mixing nutrients based on EC instead of ppm or just a standard measurement. 4/20 I found root rot in all buckets. I emptied buckets, put just water did a hydrogen peroxide treatment of 1:1 for 5min soak. And I mixed a light nutrient solution of 4ml gro 2ml macro 3ml bloom 10ml hydroguard 2ml Rapid Start To 3.5gal Plants reacted badly to peroxide treatment. I made the light solution to help recovery. 4/21 plants recovered from peroxide treatment. Going on advice I got from a fellow grower on here Roberts I pruned the root rot off and did a root pruning on all just leaving a inch or so of roots in water. 4/22 mixed 0.30ml/L GH Flora Gro(N) as foliar spray and sprayed them down at 5:25pm still in dark until 6pm and turned fans off to help absorb foliar spray. Mixing new solution tomarrow. I keep a grow log here https://1drv.ms/x/s!AmTQ-7u9iyH6kBCjnqwlkbnRSSDi I been dealing with high tent temps. And I target 73°F and tent has been topping at 80°F to 81°F. Bucket temps have been in 74°F to 75°F. I think that contributed to the root rot. 4/23 4x4 mix nutrients a different level Micro 0.5/L ×13.2=6.6ml Gro 1.0/L x13.2=13.2ml Bloom 0.75/L x 13.2=9.9ml Cal mag 1/L x13.2= ml14 Rapid start 1ml/gal.=4ml 14ml hydroguard

They seem to be trying to recover and im trying to please them but they are unhappy again. Added calmag hoping it will help and make them happy! Finally found the reason the tent was having such a hard time keeping those temps below 75°F. Changed the pre filter that had changed color from black to white. 4/28 4x4 Added 1L of water each Added 2ml cal mag each bucket Added 6ml hydroguard 4/29/23 4x4 Added full mix buckets Micro 0.5/L ×13.2=7.1ml Gro 1.0/L x13.2=13.7ml Bloom 0.75/L x 13.2=10.4ml Cal mag 1/L x13.2= 14ml Rapid start 1ml/gal.=4ml 3.5gal = 13.2L I added water to all buckets to get back to 3.5 gal I added 0.5ml of each for a higher ppm Sprayed them down with N water while lights were off Had to move light up about a inch or so Keeping record here https://1drv.ms/x/s!AmTQ-7u9iyH6kBCjnqwlkbnRSSDi

Well with time I feel like I am finally starting to get some traction. BIG Thanks to Roberts on here. He has been a HUGE Help and I Appreciate it soo much! So Thanks Again Roberts! So as I learn how the plant looks and what deficiency that is or what she is trying to tell me. I wanted to use this grow to learn as much as possible so I started HST AND LST wanted to get some experience with these this grow. And even wanted to indulge in topping but I think its too late for that on a auto. I'm doing root pruning now to try and get some root mass on these ladies. They are looking pretty good! I do update my dairy more then just weekly so have a look here and there if it don't automatically send that i added stuff. 4/31 I indulged in LST and HST started training on all the ladies. Did some root pruning as well. Targeting about 2 inches in solution. Lowered light since all ladies laid down. 5/1 Ph to 5.8 and lst, root pruning 5/2 Leaf sides on cookies and Runtz are browning (K deficiency Add Bloom) Added 5ml bloom to all.

Using seedling npk and just raising amounts. Burned plants like 3 different times before realizing my mistake -Calibrate PH pen often to avoid problems -Don't over fill bucket at initial setup(not touching basket) -Once water level is lowered 1.5 to 2 inches from basket don't ever fill past this point -keep bucket temps below 75°F to avoid root rot

Well, I turned this grow around for sure!!! Stoked! But unfortunately I found a questionable section on cookies, where 2 colas were on back side right under fan and apparently didn't get enough air. Looked off not stright up mold but definitely looks off. So when I cut her down in did those last and basically cut off anything questionable and threw it away. I'll put the pictures of cut down with the harvest log when I get out of drying and have weight and details to fill it out. I'M SO EXCITED!! AND I CAN'T HIDE IT LOL!!!! Started 2 week flush in banana. Debating whether to do a experiment with banana and cut half down at week 1 of flush and then rest at 2 week of flush. Just for a little experiment of my own.... not sure if I will or not.. 7/18 added water 7/19 added water, 2ml bloom to banana 7/20 didn't make it in 7/21 added water 7/22 didn't make it in 7/23 Cookies is cut down Banana flush Start Runtz full feeding Micro 0.75/L =8.5ml Gro 0.50/L =5.65ml Bloom 1.5/L =17ml Cal mag 2/L =22.6ml Bud candy 2/L = 22.6ml Big bud 2/L =22.6ml 3 gal = 11.3L

It was a rough grow buy this strains strong vigor pulled thru. I made a few mistakes in the beginning the hit them all pretty hard. But after rectifying my mistake and getting help from some growmies. I made her happy and she pulled thru. Did have something going on at end with a few colas looking funky but overall she was amazing and will grow again!!!

Started flush in runtz and did a experiment of my own. After a good 2 week flush, cookies bud smells of chemicals. So that tells me the flush may not be what's takes that away. Pretty sure its the cure, but going to testi flush lengths as well. 7/24 added water 7/25 didn't make it in 7/26 added water banana, starred flush on runtz 7/27 didn't make it in 7/28 didn't make it in 7/29 Did experiment 2 nugs of banana and 1 nug of runtz Runtz flushing 3 days Banana flushing 1 week Cookies flush 2 weeks (2 see how a 2 week flush compares to 3 day and 1 week flush) Added water Records kept here https://1drv.ms/x/s!AmTQ-7u9iyH6kDFcBT1QhRk7ttv4

Well made a big mistake and it cost me... but what can u do but live and learn right. I got busy and exhausted and then completely forget about banana for 2 days extra the. I wa a supposed to use florakleen and pretty sure I ruined banana. Buds and stems were weirdly sticky and had a werid smell. 8/6 let them be 8/7 intended to cut down Banana passed out early 8/8 completely forgot about banana. Car problems 8/9 well, I unintentionally ran florakleen for 4 days instead of 2 days. Cut down Banana. It had a werid stickness and smell. Not normal. I think I ran the florakleen too long. Pretty sure I ruined it! 8/10 let them be 8/11 let them be 8/12 added water Records kept here: https://1drv.ms/x/s!AmTQ-7u9iyH6kDFcBT1QhRk7ttv4?e=hRZD9R 👋👋👋 Hello, Thanks for checking out my grow!!

Well, I nutrient burned her 3 times in a row from 1st time growers mistakes. And she didn't take it too well. She got stunted pretty bad. But I still managed to pull her thru. I did make a huge mistake and used florakleen for 2 days longer then directions say and when harvested buds and stems had a werid wet stickiness and had a werid smell. So I'm pretty sure I ruined them. They are drying now I haven't weighed them and to be honest I am probably not going to smoke it and just throw it away after weighting it. I'm super sensitive to off smells and taste, so I'll pass after smelling during harvest. But I did cut one branch off before adding florakleen, so I will have a bud or 2 to try... I'll check back in after a proper cure of the branch I cut off before running the whole damn plant... smh...

Well, no need to sugar coat anything I made a few mistakes. Including at the end here the sugar leafs all turning yellow.... cut gro nutrient too early maybe.. Other mistakes I know I did this grow were - overfilled bucket putting water level to close to net pot -When switching from seedling strength to veg strength not switching npk ratio from 1-1-1 to 3-1-2 - i added nutrients right after transplant 1.5 weeks before roots hit water -not changing water weekly and feeding every week making ppm skyrocket - not making sure to rotate plants, or making sure whole plant is getting proper air circulation -Not being attentive to checking controller is following schedule - not getting the ph to stop climbing day to day I am happy with the grow overall! The experience I gained this grow were a few things -using synthetic nutrients(burn/deficiency) -introduction to Dwc -Lst/ adjusted constantly /twist tie/lst clips) -Hst -ph/ppm how/why -triclomes (when to harvest) 8/13 let her be 8/14 let her be 8/15 added water 8/16 let her be 8/17 cut 1/3 runtz down after 3 week flush, then added 30ml florakleen to bucket 8/18 8/19 runtz cut down (34hr florakleen) Records kept here: https://1drv.ms/x/s!AmTQ-7u9iyH6kDFcBT1QhRk7ttv4?e=5r4z92 👋👋👋 Hello, Thanks for checking out my grow!!

Well I wanted to try some things for myself. So I cut 1/3 of runtz down after a 3 week flush. Then I added florakleen 30ml for 3 gallons for 34hrs. And cut down the last 2/3's.
