Off to a slow start which is partly my fault for filling the net pot up to much so taking ages for the roots to reach the res and due to the fact I have had ph meter issues so only just been able to start feeding, hopefully starts picking up pace from here! On the plus side she's looking nice and healthy 👍
@goarilla, I totally agree that it all depends on where you live etc and your circumstances, I live in an apartment in an urban area and I don't have a garden, unfortunately where I am from its still illegal so stealth for me is a must so people seeing me with bags of dirt just raises suspicion which is another reason I went for DWC as all I need is water and nutes. I hear NFT systems are supposed to be really good but haven't looked to much into them.
@MrGreenFingers, I don't know ... it's hard navigating the hydro market. Too much overzealous marketings and unworkable systems. Concerning DWC it seems hard to keep large quantities of water at a ph, temperature that is in a narrow range, it also limits where you can do it. You need an easy to access drain and sink nearby or you will be juggling water buckets over stairs and distances. I would love to try rockwool on a table with a drip system but for now I stick with dirt. I have a garden as well so ... the waste gets thrown on the compost pile.
@goarilla, yeah bro but genuinely I made the choice as I read alot of grow journals before I started and to me and the way I think it seemed the easiest method, soil just seemed more complicated to me as with DWC you know exactly which nutrients and quantities you are using and also if you mess up you just throw the solution down the drain and start fresh, issues people have are root rot but if you buy good equipment to start with it will be fine
@BigDaddyK, thanks BDK appreciated bro! Yeah I used terpinator only twice as it claims not to raise EC but for every ml/l I used it seemed to raise my EC by 0.1 so I don't understand, maybe it means you can just ignore the rise?? My PH seemed ok though which is weird but was using silicone as well which I think steadies up PH until someone pointed out the Canna nutes already have silicone added to them lol 😂😂
I feel like the jump from week 4 to week 5 , was 5 inches to 17 inches but the week 5 looms like 24 inches and mabey a week 6 or 7 shot , do you think a picture was mixed up or did it truly jump so much like that with an incredible root Mass in just a week? Great grow thumbs up
@RealThor89, I think it was 8 or 9 days bro, I went skiing that week and left her alone but I think I posted week 4 on the Friday before I left and then posted week 5 on the Sunday when I got back.
