Congrats to the Nice Bunch of Flowers!!!

Very cool stuff going on in here. they call this dutch bucket method? Do you have to maintain the root compartment by swapping liquids/washing it or how does that work? I can get my dwc roots looking like that, but it's a lot of liquid swapping action required

Hey man, the grow is looking awesome! I'm switching over to DWC in a few months so this journal is a perfect example for me to look at. I'm also thinking of switching from a 250W MH/ 400WHPS to a 315W CMH set up for a 3x3 area. From using it yourself, what do you think of it in terms of performance, and what area do you think it would be best in?

@Tried_and_Tested, I mean the 315W is perfect size for small space such as mine and I don't see reason to switch away from these anytime soon. I'm considering of upgrading it to 630W next with better, adjustable ballast to have that extra when the temps allow it. Philips bulbs have been recommended a lot (best PAR/efficiency) and they probably are the best since they invented CMH bulbs. Light penetration also comes down to quality of reflector and how it focuses the light so those are something worth looking into. As for DWC, you can't let the solution get warm or it's game over real quick. You're gonna want something to keep that chilled and do it manually if you have to. My next grow is gonna be with photoperiod and we're gonna find out what you can really do with just 300 watts of full spectrum light. hopefully you got some answers here, good luck with your grow aswell!

@@@@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, I think it's great for it to take so long. I barely got to wk6 with my WW, but that's how it goes when you play with autos and do stupid stuff like snap the main stem :hankey:.

wow , you're on week 8 and it's barely showing pistils, is that normal for this strain or something else with the grow making that happen? looking good :ok_hand:
