This week, again no problem. Just she have been filling day by day. The buds looks very big. But have many spaces inside of those. I expect those will be filled more and more.
I checked some diaries. Some girls (GG) finished before 10 weeks of flowering (RQS catalogue recommendation). And some finished 10 weeks like a sativa dominant strain. I understand my girl needs long flowering. I am thinking more than 10 weeks, like a sativa strains.

Oct 7: Adding 3 l water with above nutritions. pH 6.4 -> 6.0, with pH min 1.5 ml / reserver
Oct 9: pH 6.3 -> 6.0, with pH min 1.0 ml / reserver.
Oct 10: Adding 3 l water with above nutritions. pH 6.4 -> 6.0, with ph min 1.5 ml / reserver
Oct 12: Adding 3 l water with above nutritions. pH 6.4 -> 5.9, with ph min 1.5 ml / reserver
now pH is very stable in the safety range of hydro culture, between 6.0 to 6.5. 6.4 is a little bit high for absorption of P. I have to keep pH value around 6.0.
@Ashbash, Hmm 40 is a real hell😆. Now my apartment is heated 24/7. changing the light schedule is not working well. I have to install ventilation for my apartment😂
@Asa_Nouka,
Yea, summer is not a good time for indoor gardening haha.
I know some people swap there light cycle so the lights come on at night, might save some heat there if you can do it.
Still, imagine how bad it would be if you had a HPS lamp! Mine pushed 40 degrees a few times, and was only 250w lol.
@Ashbash, At the beach, the sun is my best friend. But now the sun is my enemy😅
I use 200 W COB LED light. For the first week, I used 50% of it (indicated by the dimmer dial). And this week I used 100% and got the problem. The new leaves have not so much heat stress sign now. I wish it goes well with 100%.
I'm on my 1st run with Dwc, what I have found so far is I get my water ready about 24hrs b4 I do a res change. I then usually add my nutes and adjust ph to 5.8 leave it an hour then do my change, I find doing that seems to stop my massive ph swing. I do generally have to use ph up or down everyday, and top up with just water nearly everyday as well. When I tried topping up with a nute solution things went a bit tits up with my Ph.
@hashy, Thank you for advice. Now I understand water should be stable before using. After everyday add water (with nutrients), I am feeling roots growing very well.
if i ad the pure zym in my water it get very dirty the day after and floating things in it... also are you using RO water ? i use plagron hydro too without anythin else
@Reaper, Next week, I will change to the flowering light cycle and stop to use pure zym. I checked some supplements to kill bacterias (opposite direction of pure zym). If possible, I will try to use at the next growing. And I am expecting clean water and reserver (now wall of my reserver is a little bit slimy).
@Reaper,
at early stage, I found many pieces. But now it is not many. The changes are plant growing and changing ph down from Plagron Lemon kick to Canna pH- grow. I have no idea why decreasing. Water temperature is not changed
@Satori_Hanso, You are right. I will cut big fan leaves at top of the plant and make light reaching well. In the last growing, i did too much defoliation the early flowering stage and am afraid do it again. Thus I will cut a little bit but everyday. It will be my daily routine till stretching stop.
@Satori_Hanso, Yes too much bush now. Now I am regretting I should start flowering one week earlier😅. Now I am thinking I will do nothing and let her do as her want in the next two weeks (transforming weeks). After that, I will cut lower branches and leaves. Other defoliation is now not planned but I think I need more and more.
@Asa_Nouka, ok so you inspired me actually i use it as a grind container so after the grind before the vape... much the same as you, and it's nice, strange but nice lol i keep thinking i should put some boveda on the bottom, but nah...
@CRiSPrGrow, Hi mate, I usually use 00 box as temporary storage on my desk. I mean, take buds from glass jar -> 00 box -> grinding or just smoke. It keep away buds too much dry. It is not tight sealing, use magnet and have air flow between inside and outside. But it is better than putting buds on the desk directly.
I know directly taking from jar is not hard work. But, as we know, sometimes we are very lazy with smoke. Many times I put buds directly on the desk, and next day, I feel very pungent due to too much dry.
@DILLIGAF, Yeehh, I found one preflower last night. I will change the light cycle this weekend.
And thank you for your diary. It is really nice for beginners like me.
