Very nice strain, very resistant, everything was ok during grow period, but i had to cure them from root rot during stretch phase and early flo. They suffered from the cure, but they recover well and i was able to complete this grow ๐Ÿ‘Œ Incredible taste and smell, smoke is very sweet. I really enjoy this strain ๐Ÿ˜€

Reviews. Nutrient
nice nutes, plants seems to love it ^^ and dosing is easy I found only a drawback (totally subjective), with 40L of nutrient solution, i have to add 200mL of Hydro Bloom or Hydro Grow so it's 1L each month ๐Ÿ˜• i'll prefer a higher concentration

Hi everyone ! it's the end, a bit sad for these ladies, but happy to taste my own production and i hope i can be self sufficient i learn a lot from this first experience, and i want to thanks all people who support me ๐Ÿ™. I have a goal for the next session, keep a healthy plant / root system until the end ๐Ÿ’ช thanks for all the advices. if i can leave a feedback and some advice for my next grow and for people who are interested by this method : - NEVER use a (too big ) rigid frame if you can't walk around your plant. you need full access to remove leaf, cut some branch, etc ... and check plant/root health during the whole session. - For NFT Setup, Change the nutrient solution frequently and if you are a beginner and don't know how to keep a healthy system, Don't take risk ! and change the solution each week or 10 day MAX, "you are not a wizard Harry !" - Oxygen is life ! Oxygen is life ! Oxygen is life ! Oxygen is life ! Oxygen is life ! Oxygen is life ! - Don't try to make too big buds. with a 400W HID & cooltube, buds are correct 40cm from the top, after 40cm, bud are fluffy, popcorn bud ๐Ÿ˜• so i think i'll keep only 40/50cm for plant who are under the light, 30 for plants on the edge and cut everything lower. - Check water consumption daily ! the better way to know about plant health : 1: - Thanks for support and see you on next grow ๐Ÿ˜ - Here's your potatoe & a timelapse from 2018/11/02 to 2019/01/06 ( 4115 photos / 60 Go )

Dedonstarted grow question 6 years ago
Hi everyone ! i have some trouble with pH stability, i washed my tank with bleach when i change the water, but since pH increase from 5.5 to 6.3 in almost 6 hours. i also use peroxyde hydrogen. do you know if h2o2 can do that or is it because i used bleach :/ Thanks for your help๐Ÿ˜€

Perhaps, although it might not be due that. Keep in mind that as plants aborb more water (or more nutes) the pH balance of you reservoir will change as the concentration of nutrients dissolved in the water changes, pH instability can be a sign of a reservoir too small for your need, since a small water (or nutrient) uptake drastically changes the concentration of the solution. good hydroponic nutrients are buffered to prevent this. What you can try is to buffer the solution yourself by adding more pH DOWN AND pH UP, to force (buffer) the solution to stay stable at the desired range.

Sorry - In my answer I said โ€œif youโ€™re cleaning the tank between growsโ€ when I meant โ€œif youre cleaning the tank between nutrient changes/weeklyโ€

@Dedon, I think that'll help. If you can't keep it cool, at least increase the air and add enzymes or bacteria. Keep us posted, though. And good luck! You're doing good! ๐Ÿ‘Š

@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, Got it... I was diluating h2o2 to get a 0.5% solution before add to my solution to prevent h2o2 to kill everything in it but I wasn't really sure if it was effective. So i'll have to cool down my tank ๐Ÿ˜ญ i'll put some bottle in my freezer

@Dedon, because while peroxide may just have an extra molecule of oxygen, that's not the way it acts. What I mean to say is, when you get a cut on your arm -- it's not that extra molecule of oxygen that's doing the wonder of cleaning the bacteria out of a wound. Peroxide kills everything -- good or bad. So if you add peroxide to your nutrient solution, you're probably damaging/destroying some of your expensive nutrients. You're also probably killing all of the good bacteria that plants use. For example, Voodoo Juice and Hydroguard are "good bacteria" -- they work by "eating" crap in your reservoir and turning it into nutrients that the roots can absorb. If you add peroxide to the mix, you kill that positive bacteria doing good work. I don't know exactly about the roots, but I can almost guarantee your roots don't enjoy being in a high concentrate of hydrogen peroxide. Your roots might look clean, but they're probably not healthy. Hydrogen peroxide DEFINITELY will not solve your temp/oxygen level problem. The only time I'd recommend peroxide is if you are struggling with root rot; even then it's questionable if it'll be okay for the plant. Daily -- that's out of the question, way too often to be adding something I don't think you need in the first place. I don't even add nutrients daily!

Hi o and welcome :) Everyhting is going well thank you, they have reach the screen today, but i'll wait to fill 70% of the screen before switch to 12/12 first time is a bit stressfull :) i hope, i'll be able to control them during stretch phase

@@hydrohippy, next project is an automatic pH controller. With another WiFi controller, pH probe and a peristaltic pump ๐Ÿ˜Š Then, i'll to check water level and change water each week,

@M3dicinal, Thanks for support ๐Ÿ˜ Everything is homemade and open source ^^ i'm using domoticz server and RPI Cam server installed on raspberry pi 3 ( GPIO control HID/LED/Extract/water pump/etc ... via relay shield ). Temperature & humidity (DHT22) and water temperature (DS18b20) sensors are connected to a wifi controller ESP8266, i write a program for this controller to read temp every 5 minutes and send value to Domoticz server, it also host a small web server, so i can uptate temperature from a web site, i add some picture on my next diary : growdiaries.com/diaries/23474-skunk-xl-round-2

@CommanderCannabis, same, it's really usefull, it start heating and humidifier when it need. I wish I can control ph & ec with sensors and activate peristatic pump to adjust but i can't buy components rn, so I keep that in mind for next session ๐Ÿ˜‰

@Dedon, Props for using data charts. I do that too. I monitor pH, PPM, Water and Air Temp and humidity.

Looking good, really good ๐Ÿ˜‹ Here is btw good video about pH if you are still having problems www.youtube.com/watch

@Dedon, Oh, I too have small tank (18L). My plant drinks now almost half of my tank, so everything has to be really accurate. EC has to be like 1.31 or something like that or I run into trouble and fast ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
Dedon
Dedon
@Turhapuro, thanks for this very instructive video ^^ i was pretty sure pH has to be low (5.5/5.8) in hydroponic to get nutrient available (specially phosphorus ). it reassure me ๐Ÿ˜€ pH is still fluctuating each day ( 5.5 -> 6,0 ) but i assume it's because i use small tank 2 x (3 plants in a 20L Tank) i'm gonna try with only 1 plant by tank on next grow

@Dedon,Hi, yes I see that what force! it's adolescence !!! it is sure that the more plants there is the risk of moisture, for my part in scrog I never exceed 4a6 per m2, so it remains manageable with 2 to 3 weeks of growth ... but otherwise nothing to say ... very beautiful!

@BADKUSS, Hi !! Thanks :D i'm so happy to see them growing so fast ^^ i've seen pistils allmost everywhere so i'm glad to see all these young ladies become woman ๐Ÿ˜ i think there is too many branchs :/ leafs are stuck together et during transpiration, the water stay between the leafs so they are all wet :/ i guess i have to do a better trellising and put less plants ^^ ( 4 should be enough to fill all the net and let them breathe )

I use graph charts also to show my data for PPM, humidity, pH and chamber Temp. I find it useful if something is wrong to track where it could have gone wrong. Good luck on harvest.

Dedon
@CommanderCannabis, Thanks ! yes, it's very usefull, if i can i'll monitoring water consumption to see if i had root disease. when i had my root rot, they were less and less drinking but it take me some time to react and cure them :/ ( anormal pH fluctuation is a clue too )

@Greenbirdbud,Thank you, i spend the whole day to try to solve my root disease ^^ i flush 3 or 4 time the tank and wash the root with peroxide.

@ClubRiot, Thanks ! o they still recover of root disease :/ they were drinking less and less solution, so i check the whole root and see some rot T.T i disinfect everything with peroxyde, but i hope i won't lose to many time :/ ( they still have to fatn up )
