Things to look forward to this week: More defoliating! Just trying to strike that balance of airiness and photosynthesis. Plus, I gotta get rid of a bunch of useless back-budding throughout the girls. Focus on that canopy! New dehumidifer on the way. It should be running by Wednesday. Hoping to get down the 45% RH for some arbitrary reason! And it will help me cure better too. I keep telling myself the money is worth it. Started treating my water with some calcium hypochlorite, a.k.a. pool shock, at a rate of 2 PPM which I've worked out to 0.15 g for 50 L (my standard tank build). That doesn't sound like much, but it is detectable on the nose. I'm not concerned about 2 PPM ending up absorbed in the plant, it takes in a certain amount of chlorine anyway and this is well below cannabis' phytotoxicity, apparently. The takeaway: it's safe, just like using city tap (many places) to water plants. 8/5/2019 - The girls look great. Went through and removed a lot of growth with a better sense of what to cull. Snipped a load of bud growth branches that would never make it to the top. They were mostly skrawny sucker branches and a few that would have made nice colas if they managed to reach the light. Gonna be picking out root rot and treating with H2O2 for the dead roots from site 5. Starting to see some brown, just need it not to spread to the living plants. Treating with a 2 PPM chlorine dosage to the reservoir. Had to purge the accumulators anyhow, so everything is being treated with antimicrobial now. I won't get to see them until after work tomorrow, any changes in health will be evident. 8/9/2019 - Dehumidifier #2 arrived today. It shows delivery at 12:20 and the driver placed it right-side-up, so I am good to start it right away. Immediately, I am a little surprised at how warm the air is coming out of this thing. I'll keep an eye on temps.... 8/10/2019 - Wow, the reservoir from the dehumidifier filled up in the middle of the 12 hour cycle and shut off automatically. Really pulled a lot of water out of the air! The temps got too high though. Not too long after lights on today, they temp read 90 degrees F, and I can't have that. Moved dehumidifier outside of tent and now draining into 5 gallon bucket. The tent is moving enough air that the humidity inside and out is the same. Seeing if it can lower the humidity enough outside the tent to benefit.

Grow Questions

ThatsMyPursestarted grow question 5 years ago
I have some dead roots tangled with my healthy roots-- left behind from removing a male. Clearly they are going to decay in some way. Will they affect the health of my living roots? How to treat them? Complete removal impossible.

Hey you can add 2 tsp per gallon of 3% hydrogen peroxide. It will kill off the bacteria that is blooming feeding on the decaying roots. The peroxide breaks down into water and a rogue O molecule. If that molecule runs into bacteria it kills it. If is hits another O molecule it adds oxygen to the water. It is a win win. Since it breaks down you will want to add another 2tsp about every 4 days or if the water gets cloudy. After a couple weeks the dead roots should be broken down. Just monitor your water for cloudiness after that and start the h2o2 again if you see cloudiness or an unusual ph fluctuation. You can use 3 tsp max but 2 has always fixed my issues. Hope this helps.

Your grow looks incredible healthy, happy flowering time. Ive been reading @Wicked_Stix s answer, the problem cant be better explained and solved. Your diary is outstanding, very detailed and well shown to learn. Thy for sharing it

@Mrs_Larimar, Thanks for stopping by! I used the H2O2 method for a while, but it got expensive. After doing some calculations, I went with calcium hypochlorite as a reservoir sanitizing solution. Only 0.15 g / 50L reservoir build to get 2 PPM means my $14 will go a long way. I chose their answer because it is definitely the most informed input I received, and I can verify that it effectively treated the cause of my root zone dankness.

@ThatsMyPurse, thanks a lot! For my first one (inside at least) she turned out really well. Buds are starting to swell up and the main cola is just a real stunner. In terms of smell, she has a real nice strong Skunk smell with hints of sweet aromas, makes me salivate every time I open the tent to look at her.

ThatsMyPursecommented5 years ago
@Anxious_Passenger, Thanks for the love! Today is my first day of flower, flipped last night. The girls are covered in pre-flowers, so the future is bright as long as I keep all my parameters dialed in. Your Purple Skunk looks good too! Hows the smell factor? I've got a skunky one next grow, hoping it absolutely wreaks.

ThatsMyPursecommented5 years ago
@The_Projexx, Thanks for watching! Pretty hands off right now. Installed a dehumidifier in the past week as insurance against mold. Found a good price on a 50 pint model, and it does not disappoint. The water has really low TDS (~10-15 PPM) so I've been using it for my reservoir. Should help cut down on the water bill even though it's taxing on the electric.

@@Buddeegrowers, Thanks for stopping by! Buds are really starting to put on some weight and I'm watching for more frost to develop. I'm learning about how cannabis grows, and hoping these ladies put out more trichomes after the buds fatten up a bit more.

Awesome looking setup! Those containers are so great, I've been considering something similar. With the yellow lip on the lid do you have any algae issues?
ThatsMyPurse
ThatsMyPursecommented5 years ago
@Cheezy Thanks! This has been a fun experiment. I have not had any algae issues. I would recommend either getting something with a black lid, or spraying this one with a couple coats. Taping it was a pain and I'm not particularly happy that there are a bunch of criss-crossing channels under the duct tape on my lids that cannot be cleaned out or dried if necessary. Not my favorite thing to think about. Besides that, these totes have been pretty great for this project. I don't want to go to 5 gallon buckets, but I am thinking about individual containers for the next go-around. My roots are so tangled up in the base of these. I had to leave the roots behind when removing males, enhancing my risk of root rot. The reservoir does get a little funky over the week. Something is growing, but I don't know what it is. Looks like gray gunk on my little submersible pump intake. Bought some pool shock this week, heard running chlorine at 2 PPM is perfectly safe and slows down the development of cultures. I change out the reservoir 100% every 5-7 days; slowing down the rate at which microbes multiply should work for me.
