Mini grow Liberty Haze

The Pistils are here. Only 2 plants of 3 has been selected as it was intended. EC 1.2 in = EC out. (+ 0.40 water base) = EC 1.6 50% canna coco A+B 50% NovaMax Bloom The Red Flower 660 puck is running 12 hours per day. Very powerfull device ! love it. The Pots has been changed for larger ones. The Far Red 730 puck is not used anymore at the end of the day. I note that it had no effect of promoting the transition quicker and the cons was an elongation of the stems, nothing else. I learned a lot of things during this 1st try with these addons : - Because we don't need too much nodes during the veg, the far red 730 is usefull to elongate the stems and fill the area without adding extra week of veg. It works for shaping with LST and the 730 wavelenght is a serious option for a scrog. You can save some weeks of veg. - The Red flower 660 is very potent, excellent to enhance the full spectrum of the quantum board. I really like it. The plants needs 4 weeks to be mature. I only gave them 2 weeks of veg. It delays the first pistils even after the 12/12 switch, more with sativa pheno. Never use the far red during the stretch and be aware that the 660 red puck can promote elongation too. The next run, i will try to use the UVA during the second phase of the stretch, to get the nodes closer as possible. but only for the last 10 or 15 days of pre-flowering, not more. I think the best options are to use the Far Red 730 in veg to promote elongation, UVA 390 during the stretch, and the Red 660 in flowering. The last 2 or 3 weeks, after the bud are complete, the Uva would be used for terpenes, pigments and overall quality boost. Nothing to do with cannabinoids %. The irrigation was under pressure with indesirable splash effect. I added a 5 bucks anti water-back valve just after the pump and it solved the problem. If you plan to use the floraflex system, especially the FloraClip/FloraCap, be aware that you need a powerfull pump. Below 2000 l/h, the flowrate is too low to cover the surface of the FloraCap. More the 6mm tubes are long (x8 tubes max per flow bubbler), more the pressure drops, then a reduced flowrate occurs. Mine are 30 cms long. My pump delivers 2000 l/h with 2.4 meters Pumping head H-max (specification). If you can, choose a 3000 l/h or a pump with a higher pressure H-max. The pressure is way more important than the flow rate. (in computer water cooling, there are pumps that delivers 500 l/h but 5 meters Hmax !!, but no compliant for our use because they are not immersive). Also, use a large diameter 19/25 mm tube for the main irrigation. That 's said, i don't have any problem with this system, all works nice. I just notice i m at the strict minimum requirement. I have rebuilt my irrigation because my tubes was too long and i got a pressure drop and encounter some issues with flowrate.
