Hello and thank you for taking the time to read. Sorry if my grammar is wack sometimes, English is not my first language. Nothing much to say except that, it grows lol, and i'm already starting to think about how i'm gonna feed my plants later.  My thinking is : i do know that plants take nutrients at a different uptake, so my tank will be unbalanced soon. Apriori low in N and micros in excess. I also know that P and K are way overlooked for the yield. Like, for me, the Ca to K ratio with these plants under this lighting looks much closer to 1:1 than 1:2. So, if i add only calnit - sadly i don't have any calcium sulphate and my goal was to do the cheapest grow possible - with epsom salts and a low dose of P and K, i should get a good nutrition for the last 3 weeks, with the smoothest smoke possible and without any loss of terpenes or cannabinoids. And still get a good brix value - hence the K. I'll maybe lower the ec from 0.1 this week. It's rock stable but i feel that i could feed them a bit lower. I cut a lot of leaves over the past 3 week, maybe 3 lbs, that's ridiculous. I like to grow buds, not leaves! I won't touch them much anymore, a few leaves from time to time and a big defoliation at week 4 or 5, and maybe another one later upon the growing conditions, i'll see. The smell in the tent is nice, something skunky - i assume the double serration pheno - hashy with a minty freshness, i do like it. And it's not overpowering too, those are plants friendly to the grower.  See you next week!

Bella grow piena di fiori dwc ?

MrPotatoecommented2 years ago
@Testefumate, Thanks mate, no it's low pressure aeroponic, i think It's slightly faster for veg and uses less water than most dwc systems. Plus, flat surfaces for an easy cleaning. And it's cheap! I'll post pictures of the roots at the harvest
