The seed has developed wonderfully. I check the nutrient solution daily. The leaves are very light green.

It is growing really fast in the DWC system. I am very happy!! The color is a little light green. After the weekend I will add a stronger nutrient solution to the DWC system

I am more than happy with the Strawberry Gorilla from 420Fastbuds This is my first attempt at hydroponics, but it's going well. The plant grows incredibly quickly. I made her a new and stronger nutrient solution. The PH rose to 6.5 over the last night. I check once a day. Now the PH value is back to 5.7. If you have any tips, criticism or anything, please write to me!! On the 20th day I started with LST and used Plant Trainer. I'm still thinking about topping her.

I'm so excited!! for the first attempt in the DWC system, everything is very easy. The growth is impressively fast. The roots look healthy and the PH is constant at 5.7. I only added 3 ml of cal mag

I think the plant has started to stretch. Or it's because of the new NL that I have set. I made this quite strong, the EC is 1.7 The first Pistols can be seen. I shouldn't have topped her. The two main shoots grow significantly slower than the rest and will end up in the shade. The roots have turned a little brown, I hope that's due to age and the fertilizer. In the worst case, it is root rot. The plant drinks a lot

The plant has become a real monster. I expected it to be stretched for another 4 to 5 days. But it has stopped growing and is now producing flowers. I used the vegitative fertilizer again for the nutrient solution. In a few days she will receive a nutrient solution for the flowers and then I'm very excited. The treatment with BAC was very successful

This is my biggest and healthiest plant I've ever had! I'm so incredibly amazed by Deepwater Culture that I'm thinking about not growing in the ground anymore and instead setting up 6 DWC systems in the tent. Tody i defoliate the plant :)

Hello guys, it's me again :) The plant is growing splendidly. In the last nutrient solution (4 days ago) I added PK13/14 for the first time, I assume it was a little too early. The next nutrient solution will be half as weak. The plant simply drinks 12 liters of water in 4 days, which corresponds to 3 liters per day. The smell reminds me a lot of the first Critical plant I had. I am very excited when it will be finished and what the end result will look like. Hydroponics rocks :P I'm currently trying out hydroponics with H2o2. I have learned that enzymes and H2o2 do not work together, so I will probably no longer work with enzymes in the future but only with nutrients and hydrogen peroxide What do you think about that?

Just like with Candy Bubatz, I avoid all CANna supliment products and instead add hydrogen peroxide. The roots are slightly brown... The ones from the other plant are all white (I've been working with H2o2 for a long time). I accidentally forgot the Calmg with the last nutrient solution :P The leaves have a slight nutrient burn. I've already gone down with the fertilizer. The plant is so incredibly frosty and smells like fuel and strawberries. INSANE!! HYDROPINC ROCKS

It's such a frosty plant!! I will be harvesting them in the next few weeks. I give it more time because it grows under 12 hours of light and not 20 hours like the breeder recommended

So now I have finally harvested my first hydro plant!! It was a pleasure. My partner and I were busy cutting the plant all Sunday. Everything is ready and it is now hanging! To grow: I'll keep it short. At the beginning I worked according to the individual cann thinning scheme. Halfway through the grow I started working with H2o2 because I couldn't maintain the temperatures in the water to avoid illness. The plant was grown like a photoperiod plant because I also had photos in the tent. The plant also suffered a nutrient burn during the flowering phase. I think I worked with the PK 13/14 too early. I'm happy that I was able to learn so much from the grow.
