300w LED is plenty of light for 1 Lady! Let me make a suggestion and recommend trying your next grow in organic soil from beginning. A soil grow is going to be much easier than Hydroponics and much more forgiving when you make mistakes! Trust me on this one... Your Tyrone Special grow here would've been 4 or maybe even 5 times more productive for you if grown in soil! (and less work 😉) Anyways, Great work and effort on this Gal! be proud of yourself for getting this far!!!

@1plant_closetgrow,Can you lower the watts? You'd have to raise it but it can do more than 1 plant. I find fabric pot with perlite at the bottom, then coco/perlite then 2 inches soil on top best mix ) U can even use CRFs, search for a real k.i.s.s. method on RIU.

@BudKingsGrow, thanks for the info! Will look into those products.

@1plant_closetgrow, Dont give up on DWC if that something you want to get down!! I just know its a much harder grow (I've not been successful myself yet on a DWC!). I use Natures Care Organic Soil often and get good results. Also use BioBizz's Light-Mix with great results. My Grow Rooms have 2 300w LEDs that are working well, and my Grow Room 2 has 4 Ladies in it all under 1 300. Eventually as my Amnesia Haze Pot Compare grow plants get bigger, I will have to do some moving around, but for now all 4 are getting plenty of energy from the 1 LED.

Nutrients. Lift the pot n see if it’s heavy or not to know if they need water , if the pot is still heavy it means it’s still full of water whatever if the first inch on the top is dry ... you just need to lift the pot to know.

@1plant_closetgrow, it means it’s still full of water. 7 gal pots dry has the same weight than a big pillow.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, thank you for your input! I've been doing the "first inch dry" method. 7 gallons of soil is already heavy for me to lift, so that dry soil test works better for me lol. It was first in a DWC set up and moved into soil a week ago, so had to figure that out

Thanks @1plant_closetgrow, Nice!, That's what it's all about. You'll learn from every grow, I don't think the learning ever stops to be honest. You couldn't have finer genetics to start with, that's for sure! The guys at Mephisto are awesome and really care about the quality of their products.

The perfect example what happens if your roots mold away... For Hydroponic: The PH must be around 5.5 and the EC around 1,6 in this stage of growing. More important is the temp of your nutrient solution. If it gets over 24°C you will get problems. 20°C is perfect. You can get rid of root rot with H2O2 (Ernol CC or Purolyt for example) but it takes a while....😊 Good luck for the next run.

@1plant_closetgrow, Growing hydro is genius if you know what you're doing. 😊 I would grow hydro too, but I hate cleaning up the pepples and stuff like that. It's a struggle...😅 You need to run the sytem a week before planting clones in it, so that the pH gets stable. Here's a nice scale which pH is the best. You just need to know what the plant needs in each stage. 👌 http://hanf-hanf.at/mediafiles/Bilder/Lexikon/pH%20Wert%20Aufnahme%20Hydro.jpg

@PigBearMan, thank you for your input! My pH was at a 6 for the past couple weeks. Did not measure EC at all. Water temp was a steady 73°F/23°C. My mistakes. Was going to try hydrogaurd but took the quick and easy way out and landed in soil. Will give hydro another shot in future

She looks brilliant buddy. Looks like a top notch start to a perfect hydro Grow. Theres nothing I love more than logging on and seeing a beautiful little seedling in my feed. She looks like such a gorgeous little baby and I can't wait for the surprises she has in store for us. I'm excited to see where this grow goes and how it turns out. I'm even more excited to see the methods of training and the nutrient regiment you have planned for her. I wish you the best of luck in this grow and I'm ecstatic to see what happens. Best wishes buddy, Cheers.

If you only have a loupe or other magnifier, and you can *kind of* see whether theyre cloudy or not but dont have a good view: finished, cloudy pistils get both erect instead of all floppy and also look like plastic instead of glass good hanging in there! I believe you have great capability, and have liked/followed you =)

I would stick with the veg nutes until she stops growing vertically, I would guess another week or 2 as she will explode anytime soon! Your last set of leaves look light green so I would up the feed personally but I'm sure a more experienced grower will chime in and give you a definitive answer! Good luck bro 👍

@MrGreenFingers, I agree, the newer leaves are def lighter in color than I think they should be too. I started with a little over half the nutrients but still had to add a little more at the end of the week.

Also you res solution looks very high, I normally leave an inch or 2 gap between the bottom of the net pot and the solution as this will encourage the shorter/new roots to make there way to there food! Regarding the possible root rot, does the res smell funny and is there any sludge/algae?? Also what is your res capacity and how much air does your pump produce in lpm as you want at least a lpm if air per litre of solution, my bucket holds 16 litres when I do a res change and they are getting 20lpm of air with the pump I bought which gives them a nice spar lol

1plant_closetgrowcommented7 years ago

@MrGreenFingers, I don't have a liquid thermometer but the water is always cool to the touch. Will grab one to get accurate temp

MrGreenFingerscommented7 years ago

@1plant_closetgrow, no worries man! If your looking yo stick with AN the product in there range which is similar to cannazym is called sensizym but I think I was wrong about it also sterilizing the res so maybe look into hydroguard as well, think I have been lucky so far though as my res temps are always around 60f and had no issues

@MrGreenFingers, will check those products out! Thank you! I really have terrible knowledge on nutrients/supplements, do you know if these are organic or does it matter? I actually contacted advanced nutrients about this and tried to get their input, they have grower support to help. No def answer, the person I was in contact with directed me to call, but haven't yet.
