Has Anyone tried an Outdoor D.W.C Grow - Thoughts, results, issues (specifically heat related)
bigbud1080started grow question 4 years ago
Has anyone tried Outdoor DWC grow? I am about 4 weeks into one (Southern Hemisphere) and I am happy with the progress.
I have buried the buckets underground, and have a solar air pump. I painted the buckets black then white so the light doesn't get through

You may need a chiller for those real hot days. Water to warm can create lots of root and plant problems. But if you keep the water cool, theres no comparison to the sun. To answer your other questions well, keep your water ph at 5.8 for veg 6.2, then 6.3 in flower. Keep your ec levels at 1.6 to 1.8. That's for indoor. You will probably need a little higher with the outdoor grow. Dont add any cal/mg as your canna nutes should have enough. Dont add any cal/mg unless you actually see a defficiency. Cheers

Thanks in advance for all of your

Flushing TimeHi all, I was thinking about when should I start to flushing. It looks like they have 2 more weeks to flush and harvest. I guess there will be 3 more watering day if i do it in every 4 days for the one of them. Because another one was started to growing 2 weeks later.

10 day water? PH?Colleagues tell me what you think.
I think to start watering only with clean water. 10 days then harvest?
Does ph water make sense? After all, the task of clean water is so that the plant does not receive fertilizers? Then it doesn't make sense to support ph? or am I wrong?

Which pot I should use?Hello guys. 90x90 tent - always auto's. I want to change pots in next grow. Material vs Airpots. What will be better. In airpots I have choice between 9,12.5 or 20l. I think 9l is small, 20 is big for 4x in this tent, but 12.5l is good enough for 200W light? Maybe material 15l?

Continuous grow season all yearAny advice on doing a perpetual grow? I have 5 new auto strains that will all get 18 hours from start to finish. Could I start 2 seeds every 2 weeks so I always have a harvest every 2 weeks? I have 30 total auto seeds and my tent can hold 8 full grown at a time.

…I should have bought the apera to begin withI corrected my mistake of buying the cheap ph pen and the apera reads 8.0 (should have bought it to begin with). Now watering at 6.8, things are looking better already. Am I seeing nutrient burn or is the discoloration normal? Are there any steps I should take with the soil?
