Great first week so far. My lady is developing very but very fast that I'm so impressive with her growth. As I have tried Kratky method with Basil, I will try to use some techniques that I learnt from the past 3 months now with my Northern Light Auto. I believe the main key in this project is to don't immerse the roots completely in the water allowing moisture space between water and the mesh pot for the roots to breathe even though I have a pumping working.

She keeps growing very fast every day. Today I saw two small spots on the first two leafs but I believe what caused that was the light which was about 25cm close to the plan. Also, I have change the water/solution yet. As the water is evaporates, which creates more room for the roots to breathe naturally like in a Kratky method. =)

I had a problem with 3 old leafs that I thought was rust fungi. I improved the air circulation but nothing changed so I decided to changed the water add a really less nutes and things seems to be good now.

I couldn't be happier. Her growths is incredible beautiful, in a week you can spot the differences. Week 3 I had a problem with the fertilize, I think she wanted something else a part from the Formulex that I was using since the first day. She presented load of symptom of nutris burn and then I decided to change to Flora Serie also because the Ph was going up in less the 24 hours. Flora Serie gave a stable ph now, it goes up 0.1 after a couple of days only and my plant seems to be happier than ever. I decided to perform a low LST together with a defoliation. She seems to be handling everything smoothy.

I made a second defoliation to allow light to get to the bottom of her and I would say she react with a good astral after the defoliation.

@Ciclano, I use general hydroponics also. They are great nutrients any they run stable ph. Just start with 1/2 dose and work your way up from there.

@Wicked_Stix,Good to know. I have bought hydroponic flora grow, Flora and micro but I will wait till the end of week 3 to start using.

@Ciclano, it runs stable all week with the nutrients I use. I have tried different nutrients and most of them have pH problems.
