We are just growing for fun. Any tips would be helpful. Planning on doing mainlining,topping, and LST because our grow tent is small. 2 seeds for back up planning on 1 plant. Soaked the seeds over night and transferred them into peat starters. We are trying out the root farm hydroponic system going to be growing indoors. More photos will come Once everything is all set up and ready.

- This is a diary from DILLIGAF I was so happy to find it. In the obscurities of figuring out hydroponics this gave me at least an idea of set measurements for PPM, PH, ideas, and equipment to use
THANKS TO DILLIGAF
4 Aug # Tent and lights have arrived starting to assemble and figure out that some customization has to happen. (not in final place just fitting in random locations)
6 Aug # both have popped their heads. Tent is in the final place. When moving them one fell over, gently pushed the roots into the hole then secured the plant to a toothpick. May do the 2 plants however, it will be a tight squeeze.
- Have Prepped the water for setup using distilled water with ozone from Wally World it was a GREAT VALUE. (sorry for puns) all water is within 5-7 PH will adjust once plants are ready. That took an hour to figure out and fine tune. now know roughly how much I need per 4L bottle to fine tune.
- All solutions are 250-370 PPM . May add just water to try to get it around 200-250 ppm once running. I experimented with the strength to see what PPM outcomes were, 1/3 -1/2 recommended dose that is why it is a large margin.
- I am Using ROOT FARM liquids to see what they are capable of.
-> Root farm Nutrients and Root Farm PH up/down
# 7 Aug - Little guy is doing OK for falling out of the plug, his brother still loves his helmet but is pushing it off
- Put them in the pot with 100 ppm solution water 0 PPM and added 1/4 nutes and made 100 ppm they are on a 18/6 light schedule, Theory is not doing more light because it may effect the photo period create a dependency/make sure I keep to the light schedule.
I am glad you asked this question. This is where a lot of people make the mistake of putting it in too early. You want to wait until you have a nice little taproot(at least a half inch) sticking out of the bottom of the starter plug before you put it in the system. They can suffocate from too much water pretty easily before that root comes out. Hope this helps. Good luck!
The only seed variety available to purchase legally in Ontario.
It is not even worth growing that genetic. It is the Concord Grapes of Cannabis
Argyle
Indica Dominant
THC 2.00 - 10.00%
CBD 4.00 - 8.00%
@Motherandson, Now that you have a reciept for an official seed from OCS purchase some great genetics next round...... Nobody will be testing your pot to make sure it is from OCS !! ;)
@Motherandson Thankyou so much for the kind words regarding my tutorial I am pleased to learn it is doing what
I set out for it to do and that's helping newbies like us Best of luck with your Grow 👊
