This girl is getting out of control, I stripped the bottom of the plant and the top exploded! Almost 17"of growth in the past seven days. and not just upward growth... She takes up over half of my 4x2 tent. I can't crank my lights any higher, and as a result I'm getting a little light bleaching up top. Nothing severe, but it's noticeable. Other than that she's doing great!
These pictures make the light bleaching look worse than it is. I have a LED light bulb on above my plants when I take my pics and it's so close to this one that it makes it look more yellow than it actually is.
Very excited to see how this monster is going to fill in. This strain is estimated to finish between 9-11 weeks. Probably gonna run a little long by the looks of things, I'm guessing 12-13 weeks total.
@Tazard, I can tell, and I want to be too! I just need to experiment a bit til I'm comfortable, I'm sure with the guidance of yourself and my GD fam it'll be my preferred method soon enough.
Thanks @Tazard, That's just me being critical again lol. I've had a lot of doubt throughout this grow, but she's doing good and I'm confident will provide lots of nice flowers. I saw those dusty roots and freaked a bit. All good now.
I was kinda thinking the same. I think it’s the nutrient solution. I’m usually as follows w1 450 w2 525 w3 625 w4 675 w5 725 w6 775 tds. I also noticed that you use co2 and was wondering if you had enough light? Nodes are kinda wide.
@Squirrel_Master, I understand. I have an auto should be done this week and it’s not made budlets yet. Another one that should be done next week and no budlets. I have 2week old seedlings waiting on the space.
@Tazard, light has been a big issue for this one. I had too much going on in my tent and she suffered for it. Now that the Gorilla Glue is gone I have the room to have the Cali Snow elevated and getting much better light now.
Have a dig around the bottom of buds I've just had a massive crop half ruined by one going herm and pollinating the rest. Buds grew slow and Not very frosty. Luckily it wasn't full of seeds so still smokeable but I couldn't tell until I chopped one
@SlimJamie, Just took a inside look at one of the lower buds... No sign of a sex change. Unfortunately, looks like she's getting the chop today.. her condition has gotten worse overnight and I don't want to risk ruining what little I may get from it.
Looks fine! Still young. Don’t worry too much, but stay vigilant
- DWC grows more flowers and faster than soil. Undeniable
- DWC demands daily attention, multiple times a day. Typically
- DWC has a smaller window of acceptable grow conditions than soil. Undeniable
If I had more time to devote to my garden maybe I’d DWC again. But I’m a soil man because I can ignore it and still get a great harvest. Though I inject air to soil, so the method is a hybrid. Growth rate is between static soil and hydro
@growdoctordc, Might be too late, woke up this morning to the underside of the plant all wilted and dying, and the top is even more burnt and wilted than yesterday. Think I'm gonna call it a day with this one before anymore damage is done.
I was doing great with coco, think I'm gonna go back to it full time. The DWC is nice if you have the time to devote to it, and can be on top of things when they go wrong. I missed the bus on this one, gonna chalk it up to experience and move on to the next project.
