Timing seems about right. The current flowering plants are finishing so these will be in flower within two weeks. From all that I've learned this grow (being my first DWC), I plan on carrying on with a combination of organics and synthetics. Along with GHE products below, I'll be using the organics right along side. Mainly for the microbes and fungi.
I plan on keeping my water about 1-2" below the basket with heavier pumps. Will be using the EcoPlus Eco Air 4 Four Outlet air pump divided into 2 buckets/2 air stones and using the 2 Marina 200 Air pumps for clones. That will more than double the airflow to the roots.
When I change the res and even when I transfer over to the larger flower DWC bucket (3 gal - 5 gal) I'll be keeping a litre of the veg solution to add to the fresh new res, thus 'inoculating' it with the already stable microbial and fungal environment that it's been used to. As well, I'll continue with Hygrozyme on a 'maintenance' dosage when changing the res and adding a liter of the microbial and fungal tea listed below as well as a dose of Tarantula from Advanced Nutrients. Adding organic Alaskan veg and bloom fertilizer (some 'Fulvic acid' as well, like seaweed liquid. Plants uptake Fulvic better than Humic. Root fungi eat the Humic and poop out Fulvic!) in 'moderation' to help bring PH back down and feed microbes and fungi. Once the plants start really stacking, I'll add more synthetics to compensate and to lower PH. The organics can really mess with the EC so I'm not going to be freaking about high levels. Found that it didn't effect the plants health that much if at all.

@DinafemSeeds, Probably 4-5 weeks in reality as we wait impatiently for the current flowering strain to finish! Will be taking clones and doing more LST as it goes along! Thanks for your interest!
Nice share. They are really small for 14 weeks of veg something is wrong. My guess is that you need better lights they should be way bigger. Have a look at my week 12 compared to your week 14 on my current diary. Cheers, and best of luck.
@@@deletethisaccount, actually, because they are spending 10-15 weeks in veg I have them small for that reason. My flower space is 20" x 40" x 4' (actual above ground plant space). As it is now, they will stretch to within 1' of my light which is the max. They are only under a single 2' T5 for veg. I may add another but first I have some other tweaks that I'm trying. I am going to change buckets. They were spending all their time in 3 gal buckets. No room for root growth or air space. They will now be in a 5 gal bucket. I want them to grow fairly slowly but their health is paramount.
Thanks for your interest! Be safe!
Greetings from Russia! Your plants look great! Keep developing in the same spirit! If you are interested in following the adventures of weed in Russia, subscribe to my diaries
Congratulations on the new baby. She looks good at first. Choose a good variety. For a treat. Keep doing what you are doing and ask the growing ganja gods to protect your women until the growth is over.
Fantasic ๐
One of the first grows on the grow diary platform with our recently released Fastflowering OGKZ ๐ค
Good luck buddy ๐
We are watching with interest from Humboldt County โ๏ธ

@stunflower, Gracias, Man! They get 10 weeks of veg while they wait in line for the flower room. Not so much patience as twiddling thumbs waiting! LOL!
The video updates are definitely bringing a new dimension to the diary ๐
It does look like the vertical stretch has stopped and focus has shifted to beautiful bud production ๐ค
Time to start packing on that weight ๐ค
Until next time, stay safe ๐
Kind regards โ๏ธ
Team-HSO..
3 weeks into bloom and the girls are getting their vertical stretch on ๐ค
That should now be slowing down and more focus will go into bud production ๐ค
Looking good in here ๐
Stay safe my friend ๐
All the best โ๏ธ
Mark..
Thank you for adding the BBH stretch info ๐
New growers of this strain will find that info very useful ๐ค
Stay safe out there ๐
Kind regards โ๏ธ

Things look to be Progessing at a steady pace ๐
Keep the diary update coming buddy ๐

that oil looks beautiful. nice and clean. Awesome. Why did you do a dry ice extraction then turn it into oil? Is it cleaner and more pure?? I make edibles and oils a couple times a week in magic butter machine, but I'm wondering if using hash would make my edibiles or oil better compared to only trim and some kief.
@@motaman311, I used two handfuls of dried trim and fan leaves and got 13 grams using the 160mn bag. Will use the 73mn bag first next time. The quality of the 160 is good considering that I even used old trim with new. Did get small debris like leaf in the dried 160. Tell you what, though. The fresh plant extraction (living resin they call it) is so bloody excellent that I'll rarely if ever use dried again. It was that good. Didn't need to mix much. Just shake and roll for 20 minutes with a break or two.
@DjDaveAtHome, I think im going to try that on a fresh plant. I always use whatever trim I have on hand.. normally I mix trim of the strains so they feel more hybrid. Sometimes the indica cookies are a little too heavy lol.
So I use the stuff that has been drying/curing for 2 weeks - 6 months+. I did the bubble bags once and I am not doing that again until I get an attachment for my drill to make it stir by itself. Also, I don't smoke enough hash to make it worth it but if I can use it in oils and butter then maybe..
I bought some cheap CBD online and made oil and the oil was dark brown and nasty looking.. so that stuff is only topical. The CBD was as good as you think it would be at $1 a gram.
@@@motaman311, I'm really not sure about purity or such in comparison, The biggest reason that I did it was the return. Huge amount of crystal Fresh plant material doesn't breakup into bits, either. Just freezes and goes limp because of the moisture content. Also, terpenes are still there. Also, less mess than water extraction. Do you dry first or do fresh plant? I refrigerate whatever hash/trichomes that I'm not using at the moment. No chlorophyll, either.
@@motaman311, Thanks, Mate! Very happy! Even better, my Bubble Bags just arrived. 73 and 160mn. Should give me some great trikes! Can't wait to dry ice extract the CBD. Going to do all my trim with just ice water. See what comes out! Be safe!
Blueberry Headband looks to be loving life mate ๐ค
Your systems and plants are definitely going to benefit from the added air stones ๐
Nice work ๐๐
