Week 1 (redux) - well the first girl of this strain shit the bed due to light leaks... again. We used the shitty translucent air hose that came with the new air pump and might as well have installed a small flashlight inside the res. ๐ Roots completely rotted out.
New bean into the rooter today and weโll try this yet again. The margin for error with hydro is pretty slim, especially for this dumbass pothead๐๐๐ค.
Feb. 27 update - well sheโs up and rollโn... again. Gonna give er another go and see what happens. If the roots rot out again then weโre not escaping the higher temps issue and will have to try a cooler or something as a res. ๐ค๐ค๐ค
Mar. 3 update - roots not yet at the res. But all factors accounted for. Stable ph/ec, no light leaks, frozen water bottles to mitigate temps. Sheโs on the grow solid now. Well take it another 5-7 days before the first res. Change just to let โer be for now. Alls still good so far๐ค
Background
Back with yet another from the folks at Spliff Seeds๐๐! What can I say, the beans are proven and what better qualifier than this strain. Sheโs a cross of Super Skunk and White Widow - Just a perfect mix of yield and strength if all goes to plan. Good for pain issues and nausea but what weโre shooting for on this grow is robust growth, high THC, a massive body stone and some trophy buds๐๐. The Lady of the house has named her Taffiti... after the betrayed goddess from the Disney movie โMoanaโ... mainly cuz she was high as fuck at the time๐. Giddy up๐๐ค๐...
I'm loving spliff seeds at the moment!! Got more autos on route and some purple berry kush fems. I cant wait to see the outcome. Your plants are looking AMAZING by the way !! ๐๐โ๐ฅ๐
@mr_h_kovert, lets just hope she recovers quick. My other hydro run is getting outta control and I gotta flip this cab over to 12/12 sooner rather than later๐ค. Hopes alls well bud!
Maybe white silicone covers could help as well? I've seen some white covers on other people's DWC setups, because I guess the white helps reflect off some of the light/heat. Darker colors suck up a lot of light, especially black, but at least the red isn't as dark as the black.
@MovingOn, yeah I looked at stock covers but couldnโt find any for my size of net pot. This is my workaround. Iโm not so concerned with heat dissipation or colour as the res. Itself is all black. My issues are consistently root rot due to light leaks as far as I can tell so Iโm eliminating that possibility altogether. Iโll know if the issue is temps in about 1-2 weeks I think๐ฌ๐ค๐ฌ
@@ShotGunBob, gonna day about on the light side of perfect. She started to re-veg in the end so I wasnโt gonna press my luck but Iโd say 20% amber at the high, 10% at the low and clear/glassy on the larf as expected. That help???
Nice....looking good....I like having my tents open except photo's lights out.....F.Y.I. my issue I thought was iron....doesnt matter....my tops on the ones I was trying to keep from getting to the same place....WOW....they are blowing up like a cactus top....and getting WIDE...like flat and wide...maybe quarter size on the youngest one....MORPHEOUS the self topper.....the one I had given ph water only not the CYCO dr repair that contains iron along with their other micros......
I used Fulvic Humic acids Cal....Mag....Sul....Carbonator....Zyme....and a heavy PK........also a carb and micron builder........
But thats the 330ppm TEA....my 260 in between feeding is just 5ml/g of DEMETERS DESTINY CALCUUM.....and MAGNUM mag sulfur.....its like hot tap water after I add it to my RO water.....
THEY ARE LOVING IT.....I figured something out......what I'm not totally sure...but I fucked it up perfectly.....
