Mostly a routine week. I keep taking off the larger fan leaves about once a week. I started to drop the nutrient levels a little bit due to some continued nutrient burn at the leaf tips and I’m continuing that trend heading into week 7. There are some foxtails on a few of the taller flowers because they’re a little too close to the light, but I’ve run out of space to move it farther away. I also switched the light schedule to 11/13 going forward. See you in a week...
@Gardenofweeden, you may be right, though this particular pheno didn’t have those big fat flowers like many other BD phenos I’ve seen. Looking at some of those other ones, 8 tops seemed like plenty. Ordinarily I would veg longer, but I needed the harvest to be done by a certain time in this case.
Good luck with DWC grow 😀 How is the water temperature? I want to try DWC next time too but I was reading that water temperature is the main issue (too high) and the roots will not grow and RIP.
@grzesiekkuzniak, I think that is the biggest lesson I have learned with this DWC grow. I switched to a sterile approach and since then I’ve had things dialed in. I change my water every week and use UC Roots, and I swap buckets each week with a fresh, clean bucket. After that if you just track pH and ppm and top off accordingly, it’s a stupid simple way to grow and I’m never doing it another way.
@iLoveGoodWeed,,if u change water frequently you can have temps up to 25 C and nothing will rot and no hydroguard needed..................dwc is about keeping it clean and not let water oxidize too much ...................too cold aint good too btw..........💩
@grzesiekkuzniak, I also found some adhesive cable clips that I’m going to attach to my bucket lid so I can more effectively train my plant, while also being able to move the lid and plant from one bucket to another.
@grzesiekkuzniak, early on in the grow I fashioned a little cardboard disc to cover the clay pebbles and keep light out of the reservoir and I wrapped it in tin foil and taped it to the bucket. It’s super janky but it’s working. I found some 1/4” thick neoprene sheeting I’ll use next time that has an adhesive backing and I’ll cut to my specs. Should be much less ridiculous looking.
