Day 60: Flipped the lights today.
Experienced slow growth as I have not been using an extractor and was starving them of CO2. I have now made a CO2 fizz bucket using limestone and hydrochloric acid, which has been working well but it is not metered at all, so not sure exactly how much CO2 I am giving them.
I had issues with my plants when I decided to cull the minnows but the roots had become tangled up together so I had to leave two.
Not sure I will use this reservoir again unless I find some way to circulate the solution inside as I think I am getting dead spots in the corners and the drippers are not circulating the solution enough. I have started another grow 25 days ago in an identical tent, hopefully I can learn some lessons and get some bigger plants.
Will be doing some defoliation tonight.
@Doofus_McFluro,ur welcome I had the same problem with one of my soil as I had ph way to low . I am sitting at 6.5 and 4 of them are quite happy . Happy growing 👌
@Papabro2k, I have gone up to 6.3 right now and they are already looking healthier so a big thank you is in order. Thanks very much for taking the time to help a fellow toker. 🙏
@Doofus_McFluro,mine are around 6.5 and are quite happy if ur fan is not blowing to much on the leaf it’s got to be the ph as I had just the same problem
@jgstl, Hey, it is a diabond aluminium sandwich board https://www.display.3acomposites.com/dibond.html that I had the holes milled in, its 5mm thick which is plenty strong enough. They weren't cheap and cost £115 each roughly. It is self supporting and there is nothing in the middle holding it up.
@@AlbertEinstein, yeah I think is the reservoir I am using, which is quite large but I don't think I'm getting circulation in the corners which I will have to rectify with the next grow.
