Power went out for the whole block, for about a half hour midweek - only bump in the road thus far.
Very good-looking roots by the end of week 1 😎

Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏
Awesome grow diary! Only Bubblegum PepperZ (BP) strain I've found. I wanted to grow MAC1 again for 3rd time (outdoors), couldn't find any. Klone provider recommended BP cuz 50/50% sativa/indicus. Late start, nearing harvest, watching trichomes... Curious about your closing comment, "No cure needed - one of my favorite things to see in a strain!" Hmmm, never heard of that... Thought all strains improved by curing. Care to elaborate.
@Garyhaeck, And this still cured up nicely - I started smoking on it immedietly cause it was just that good. Two weeks+ in a freezer bag and it was noticebly stronger :)
@Garyhaeck, it's not as common for a strain to be "bag ready" right out of dry. It's a small part of "Striking Gold" with a strain. Of course, you're not wrong - if you dried properly you'll get stronger bag appeal after a proper cure - but not HAVING to is a small luxury for a home grower like myself.
Clean looking setup however black buckets (black anything really) absorbs radiant heat and thus creates a negative atmosphere for said environment both inside and outside your DWC system - setting up stages for dreaded bacteria to thrive......and it will happen it's the life cycle.
DWC is not for cannabis although we have options to grow all crops - this is not the one for cannabis - were not EATING the biomass.....thus the reason for true living soil or time is lost and monies that can and should be avoided at all costs.
Be it as it may the situation can resolve itself very quickly with a 5 to 7 gallon transplant grow bag or pot (white preferred) and you won't regret it come week 3 or 4 in flower going (I wish I would've transplanted into soil) for just a quick nice easy solution go pick up some Purple Cow and just add water from start to finish. Or supplement with your own feed line !! Work Smart not HARD!
Nothing but love and JahBless your way!
@TickleToast, Inexperience is not justification for ignoring science just pure blind intuition ? This is the state of affairs and why it will not be available to the general population in the very near future, and thank god for that! You can put a horse in front of water but you can't make it drink ;-) textbook!
Love the plant and be loyal to the soil-food web - DWC you can't have a complete ecosystem period. Otherwise we would all be DWC just the way it is not the way you want to imagine it.
JahBless and One Love!
@boutique_buddz, You are correct - black absorbs sunlight. However, I Insulate my Hydrobuckets and start with water ~60F, my temps stabilize after mixing and never exceed 76F. This, combined with adding a safe bacillus product - to my mix, allows me to avoid any such "dreaded bacteria". DWC is for any and all plants - it's up to us to work out the kinks for each individual plant - or in regards to cannabis, the strain.
Nothing but love,
