Hi everybody! This is my second grow. So i'll try to grow Barney's Farm Acapulco Gold on DWC.
My setup is:
LED Mars Hydro TS-1000 (150w, 22181Lm ) (Use it on 50% of its power)
Grow tent Secret Jardin Dark Propogator 90 (90*60*100 cm)
Ventilation Soler Palau TD-160/100 N Silent
DWC system: AquaPot 20 liters
Grow started: 15th April 2020
Week 1 - Propagation
This week I didn't change any conditions from the previous ones. Just change 2/3 of the solution and added the same amount of nutrients. However, some tips of the leaves started to become yellowish.
There were some problems with the plants. Can't say what exactly whether with ph or some shortage. But they were solved after complete changing of the solution. At first made 400 ppm, then lowered it to 300 ppm again.
As usually changed 2/3 of the solution. It was too hot this week outside so it was a bit difficult to keep stable temperature in the box. I used the air humidifier near the ventilation opening so that the cooler air is spread in the box.
This week the plant had a rapid growth and I decided to top it. The part I topped, now I try to clone. At first small roots grew but, unfortunately, they disappeared. However, it is still alive just in the water.
Also weak smell showed up and I fitted a filter.
Changed the solution and the amount of nutrients to prepare the plant for flowering. Fitted the intake fan into the ventilation opening to make air flow active and also to make the temperature in the box and in the pot lower. It blows 100 cubic meters per hour.
Also I made ScrOG. I used a plastic net with the cell size 50*50 mm from an ordinary garden shop and cut it in size 100*100 mm.
I made the lamp a bit brighter. As usually I changed the solution and increased ppm to 450. At the beginning of the week I added one more compressor to the pot but then I realized that it didn't do anything but noise and put it away. All the other things stayed the same.
