Started a bit slow on the nutes. Such thing as too careful... After increasing ppm from300 to 600 to 815, and
Added the additives (before only maxigrow, ph d, hydroguard. great white)
Topped to the second node, started lst to get that flat mainifold. Accidentally left off air pump for a day, that caused that leaf damage, whoops. Top feed drip needs switched to re circulation feed...
Great growth w barney farms as usual. Roots going from bright white to off-white :( tho still very healthy.
Changed light from a single 3500k qb running ~ 135W, to a 250W 'respec' with 660nm boards 3500k @ 150W. Tight nodes quick growth.
pH was floating down to 5.88-5.6. No more pH down required. GHs maxigrow at a 1tsp/gal puts my pH right at 6, add the other nutes brings it down to 5.9. After a day ph drops a bit, I assume the great white is feeding and this is ok. I like the Floralicious Plus addition, it should give the great white flora some diversity as they eat the sugars and multiply. Don't like that it turns the solution dark black/brown.
Not happy with root color, added more air, a scoop of great white (on top of normal gw in res) in each bucket.
Veg is over, switch to 12/12 last day of week. LST mostly done happy with the structure. Moderate defoil, removed some lower branches.
Nice long veg, time for the flip.
Started introducing Maxibloom to the solution, smooth transition.
Bent a few ladies over HST style. Defoil here and there. Looking for really open and good air flow.
Running about 1050-1100ppm nutes. Added a bit liquid koolbloom.
HST here and there to get spacing out. Heavy defoil Generally I wouldn't do such heavy stress at this point but its ok. Look at that bounce back the next day.
Running 1 120W 2700k qb 266 and 250w 3500k qb respec
@Kid_Colombia,
Hey thanks Kid! This is the first time I am using Great White, its vast diverse bacterial and fungal makeup interested me vs hydroguard 1 bacterium. Hydroguard claims its Bacillus bacteria is dominate.
Nice set up
I love the buckets.
In my opinion it’s the best results
My roots are off white as well from what I can tell it’s because of the vitamin b1 and kelp mix totally normal
Good luck I’ll be following your post.
