(Log date week 7, day 49) So this week was a mixed bag, Tuesday started off with me finding a spider web on one of the lower fan leaves on my Hulkberry plant and noticed some bite marks on some of Fat Banana. In my haste to give rid of the spider mites, i caused some minor wind damage to some of the fan leaves on Hulkberry which caused some copper spotting and a stunted Fat banana cola. After i correctly treated both plants for spider mites and wind damage, they both bounced back and started to recover quite nicely. I also noticed a difference between topping these plants at different times; i topped fat banana when it had 4 cola's but i waited until hulkberry's roots reached to the bottom of my 5gal bucket and she had 8 cola's. A BIG difference in their recovery and overall structure, where fat banana jump out the gate with explosive veg growth and hulkberry struggled for two weeks just to develop it's first set of fan leaves. To now whereas hulkberry is much bigger, greener and bushier than fat banana. Hulkberry has responded much better to the additional stress whereas fat banana has struggled or stalled due to the stressful conditions. All in all wasn't too bad of a week, except for the power going out for a couple of hours on Saturday which raised my grow-room temperature to 90f, i was able to put out a couple of fires this week without any adverse long term effects. I also topped hulkberry on the last day of the week and I'm going to continue to feed them Technfloa at the full recommended strength since they have both responded very well to last week's formula. as always my pic are in chronological order Mr. O.G.T

Roots are starting to pop out the bottom of all three root riot cubes, do I now transfer them into the dwc bucket system and or add nutrients?

Hi @Mr_Og_GreenThumb! Yes you can transplant them into their final DWC container. They will appreciate nutrients if and only if the EC is low, so take it easy when adding fertilizer, do it step by step and adjust your feeding schedule to your plant's health and reactions. Also, I recommend to proceed to seedling selection: by casting the strongest seedlings and killing the weakest at early age, you will ensure yourself a nice grow with only good phenotypes, I guess you don't like to grow weak plants - me neither - seedling selection really improved my results. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing!

@Stick, in distilled water my nutrients are at 158 ppm.

I'm doing a critical mass DWC cycle. I've always stuck with this strain because it's one of the big yielders but I've never really looked into other strains. Do you have another recommendation for big yields? Is your hulkberry a better strain then mine? And also have you any experience with hydro autos? Keep up the good work and great documentation P.s do you have manifolding experience and how come you don't want to top or fim?

@Mr_Og_GreenThumb, Mean sorry for late reply and yeah im sceptical bout main lining seeing as i only have time to veg until the end of the month so even the stress of topping might not fit in.

@jollychap, Hay, Hulkberry and Fat banana are both high yield and high THC (27% and 28%). I honestly don't know if hulkberry (David Banner #3) is better then critical mass, but my seeds are from RQS and so far i haven't had any issues with their genetic makeup. Hulkberry did struggle out the gate as you can see in my earlier posts but she's made a strong recovery, and I don't manifold. I have a Bonzai main stem shape, i like to LST them and then after the 7/8 node i top them once at the main cola's and i may top the newer cola's so that i have a flat canopy and a wide base for the newer nodes to grow. I'm updating my week 7 today, thanks for the follow and comments if you ever have any question please feel free to drop me a line. Mr. Og Greenthumb

Is light too close? Causing too hot temps.. are the roots aerated? Possibly too wet are you drowing that seedling? Just some ideas to check..also could this be caused by nutrient lock out? this sized seedlings don't need much to scare them.. hope you get it right!

Those seedlings maybe yellowing because of that big 600W light

Lights are 3ft away on 400w, I regulate the temp. Never higher then 83f during the day and never lower then 78f at night. Roots are aerated, ph is kept at 5.8 and ppm levels stay between 700 and 850. Plants are growing, fat banana is exceeding expectations, the cheese and hulkberry had seed shell that didn't fall off till very late. But they are recovering very well for only 3 weeks! Fat banana and hulkberry like nutrients at half strength and the cheese likes 1/4 strength.

@Mr_Og_GreenThumb, ppm of 700-850 seems way to high for little plants like that I had to drop my flowering girls down to 900 and it still seems a little high Just a thought 😀

Finally transfer the root riot into their final home (5gal bucket). The fat banana is soldiering on but the cheese and hulkberry are struggling. Any suggestions or are they wasted? See 6/17 pix

It's on 200w is that still too much?? Thd fat banana has really started growing very well without any issues, the hulkberry and cheese secondary leaves seem stunted. I'll post updated pix. But tx for the info
