Nice setup and nice looking plants. We run similar setups. I've been looking for a comparable diary for a while. Most growers here don't seem to care about yields so much. What kind of yield are you going for? That room will easily pull five pounds when they're done. I won't achieve that with my grow...maybe but I'm only doing an 11 week grow including veg. Anyways good luck on your grow!

@Mospeada, mine are 2 inch as well, I was going to make a bucket grate as well but I forgot. I’ll find something soon, thanks.

@Coughy, Hey man, thought I'd ask if you made sure the pipes had some kind of root guard to stop them getting clogged? In week three of flower I had roots that made their way down 3 inches of the pipe. It's 2 inch piping. The last two buckets were hardly getting any solution and the flow was down to a dribble. I pulled the roots out of each pipe and wrapped the tail around the root ball. Then put in some makeshift grates. Anyways just thought I'd mention it as I didn't think I'd be clogging my pipes on this grow.

@Mospeada, Forgot to mention, the reason I veg for 8 weeks is because I’m growing 1 plant per 4x4 section.

I'm no hydro expert but can't you do a week reservoir with just plain water and see if it heals? Similar to flushing? Have you checked under those leaves for signs of pests?.... You never know.

@Fruitgrower, I asked in general, one guy said, they are different pheno and the one girl is more hungry, he suggests a phosphorus deficiency and after looking online... I’m inclined to believe this may be the issue... I’m going to add some mono potassium phosphate and see how they respond. The current nutrients are mixed in good ratios as per CX horticulture, fresh res, and the one plant is doing awesome...so I don’t think lock out is an issue... it does look like calcium deficiency but I added a lot of cal-mag but not over doing it. I think MKP is the best option right now, but hopefully that doesn’t lock something out lol... learning curve!!!!

Fruitgrowercommented4 years ago

@Coughy, well the only thing it could be then is a defiency in calcium or magnesium. This could be caused because of an excess in other nutrients, incorrect watering, incorrect or unstable pH,or just simply not giving enough calmag supps.

@Fruitgrower, it’s on top only, mostly larger leaves... some lower leaves look really healthy.

Can also be caused by light burn (being too close) or too much light intensity.

@Fruitgrower, Really, didn’t know that. Interesting.

Hey man, hope you're grow is going well. Just thought I'd recommend topping up your system into the pots evenly. With 2 inch pipes, they're not enough to distributes nutes well when your roots become massive, which by now I imagine they are. If you're adding nutes directly into your res this makes it even worse. I don't have an issue with roots yet so I mix up 15 litre (1 gal) feeds and top up every off day atm. However, I'll be looking at making some kind of hose feed system that runs to my eight pots. Handy thing you only have two to worry about. The only thing the piping is good for towards the end is just keeping the solution at the right temp.

@Coughy, I'm trying to figure out how to share a template feed chart I made on excel. Will update soon as I'm pretty sure I can link it and you can access it through a web browser.

@Mospeada, I think I do okay with the mixing, mix with egg beater plus the pump drops water into res water for aeration. I think I’m going to attempt to stay on top of nutes... daily as you said it... I just made more nutes and figured I could leave and just top up water, it’s not working for me... I’ll be implementing the calcium nitrate and magnesium with some MKP from now on with top up.

Fruitgrowercommentedweek 124 years ago

Can I ask roughly how much that cost to buy all the nutrients in dry like that (you can DM me if you want) and I presume they won't be of organic nature....?

@Coughy, I see, cool well good luck with that!

Coughycommented4 years ago

@Fruitgrower, No, not organic. I ordered from www.nuteshop.com, dry nutrients.

looks like potassium but might be something else.your reservoir ph,hows that bro? too much nutrients you give them,might be causing ph to off.as well as potassium,it may be nutrient lockout because of very low ph.Just a guess.I would check reservoir ph first.could be potassium but why a plant would show potassium deficiency signs when in vegetation,with that much nutrients,,I dont know.

Also if you're adding co2, 22c is not hot enough you want more like 30c! 👍🌱

Quick question, what’s up with the water cooled led light?

KurbinTurbincommented4 years ago

@Coughy, That’s awesome, I never seen that before on leds 👍

Coughycommented4 years ago

@KurbinTurbin, It was getting super hot in tent when I tested it, around 94F. So I water cooled the two LEDs to bring the temperature down, but when actually in use, with the humidity and plants in tent, the hottest is gets is actually around 87 but typically low 80’s with cool air from window. I haven’t seen it run through a hot summer yet. I feel I’ll need it in a month or so. If I run the water cooled lights, the tent temperature will be same as outside the tent, 66-78F. I got no A/C to run, and water-cooled set up is less electricity costs.

Good grow! Barney's is top notch. Curious to know what technique you use for making hash?

Greensensation2020commentedweek 194 years ago

for example, if you had 16 pieces and you would notice in the 4-5 flowering week that seeds should form should you let them get ready?

Coughycommented4 years ago

@Greensensation2020, This next run, I didn’t have any seeds... but I did notice some hardened calyx pods where seeds would form. The harvest I had with seeds was due to light entering tent half way through flower cause I changed something and it reverted to veg, then back to flower.

Greensensation2020commentedweek 194 years ago

can you explain why barneys farm was always hermaphrodite had the problem with do si dos33 and now glookies. they formed seeds in the middle of your bloom

kaneownzcommentedweek 184 years ago

Loving the diary its helping me learn as I wrap up my second week! How long have you been growing for and using jacks for? I planned to use Jacks 321 and follow the full strength recommendation and do what greengenes on YT suggests. What mix of jacks or what formula do you us and at what strength? Im just about to move my girls in the rapid rooter to their 2 gallon pots today in Happy frog soil. Any advice for feeding strength or if I should this early on this first transplant watering? Im already experiencing some trauma with my girls in the first two weeks lol learning curve is hitting me already. Thanks for any advice you may be able to give!!

Coughycommentedweek 44 years ago

Im a newer grower, did a couple soil grows a number of years back, gonna play again so, this my first hydro. 4x4 veg tent, 4x8 flower tent. Sending 2 to flower, cloning 2 to replace in veg. Perpetual Glookies for a bit. Gotta rip out a veg plant for room, bottom right slowest growing so prolly that one soon. 3 seeds, 100% germination.
