@nix_nix, I don’t do any foliar sprays or anything - if that’s what you mean. The only thing I wash is when I spray out the buckets every 1-2 weeks. Even then, I spray it out with hot water and then dry it with a microfiber rag (they are supposedly antibacterial). From time to time I wipe the floor of my tent.

@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, hiii brooo. how much time do you spend washing the plant?

@@Chi_Town_White_Boy,ohh bro. your answers are like always number one in my heart) thanks a lot!

@nix_nix, I thought I responded to this the other day -- but my comment isn't here, so I guess i didnt! I do try to follow AN's nutrient table. By week 3, the veg schedule recommends 4ml of grow/bloom to 2ml or b-52 (voodoo juice phases out by week 3). I may have made a mistake a couple weeks, but for the most part -- I'm following AN's schedule. The only thing that I can stress is that PPMs is what I really go by. I use AN's schedule to get the right proportions, but then I water my nutrients down to get the desired PPM. Anything over 575 ppm in autos tends to burn the tips (nutrient burn). I don't normally replace the solution every week, but I never let it go more than 2 weeks. If I'm going from veg week 2 to veg week 3, I might just pump out the old nutrient water and pump in the new stuff. One thing I'll add is that plants don't always like super clean buckets. They definitely dont want grime and sludge, but it seems like when you provide a super clean environment, the plants get a little shocked. It's almost like it seems unnatural or something. I don't know. I just wouldn't be anal about it -- don't overclean it. 1-2 weeks should be a regular cleaning and swapping of nutrients. pH Perfect works when there is a high concentration of it in the bucket. Autos use much less nutrients than photoperiods, so at low concentrations it doesn't work perfect. It is better than other nutrient lines I've tried (at maintaining pH anyway). But it's not carefree. My plants still get symptoms on their leaves (look at my pictures) because I don't pH it as frequently as I should (guilty as charged). Let me know if you have any other questions, brother! Stay safe! Stay red-eyed!

@@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, @@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, broo) hi again why your use 4 ml/l - it works better than in the manufacturer table? 2ml/l ---------------- B-52 4 ml/l Advanced Nutrients - Voodoo Juice Voodoo Juice 4 ml/l and one more question. Have you made a complete replacement of the solution every week or just before flowering? ph perfect work all time? or you had to regulate it.. Some time later? love <3 p.s: sorry my hard google translate)

@@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, gooood joooooob

@nix_nix, It’s connected to a waterproof electrical connector I installed on the sides of my buckets. Inside there is a thermometer that reads my reservoir temps. If it goes out of 60-68 F range, the light goes red. It helps me keep an eye on my water temps. I know right away if I need to do something (or: toss in a frozen bottle). You can see my screen in some of my recent posts. Its just a tent monitor I built using an Arduino.

@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, what role does the red wire play on top of the dwc ?) https://growdiaries.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/static/post/photo/6827/341323_60-day-lemon-auto-dwcdna-genetics60-day-lemon-autoflower.jpg

@nix_nix, 100 grams is totally feasible with this plant. I'm only using 300w LEDs. If I had done some LST and possibly topped, I definitely could have hit 100+ grams with this plant. It was a great performer for such little work on my part!
nix_nix
@@@@@Chi_Town_White_Boy,Many thanks for the detailed response. I really appreciate it. thank you bro !! I think there is a chance to get 100 grams from the bush if you use 600w HPS?

@nix_nix, hey brother! You should grow this strain - it smells and tastes AWESOME! I love how some of the pistils stayed white while others turned orange. All of the other strains I've ever grown went completely orange during drying/curing. Not this strain... It is spot on with the lemon smell and flavor. I'm in a 4'x4' tent, which is 1.2m squared - I believe. You could easily get 4 of these in that space. Keep in mind also that I did not top or train this plant at all (my tent was pretty full at the time). Even still, I got a good yield. This plant grows super fast though, so you have to be careful about your timing if you're going to top it. But, it was such a pleasure to grow. No problems at all. Probably the fastest grow I've had to date, too. If I had to estimate, I would put it somewhere around 17% THC. Again, this is speculation. It's a clean smoke, very flavorful, and it goes right to your head. Quite frankly, when I harvested this - I was blown away at how gooey it was. This would be a fantastic strain if you are trying to get oils, too. Since I've grown this strain, this has become everyone's favorite around here. No joke. You won't be disappointed with this one!

@nix_nix, Good catch! I should probably be more accurate with my nutrients. I basically follow the recommended portions -- so I'm more or less providing the Advanced Nutrient's schedule. What I mean to say is that I use double for Bloom/Grow than I use for everything else. Typically, I use 3 gallons of water for my nutrient mix. That's usually more than enough to cover my 7.5" line I use as a reference for top water level (once roots have reached it, of course). So, here's what I do for a 3 gallon mix: 20ml of grow/bloom. 10ml of everything else. That's total for 3 gallons of RO water. Depending on what week you're on -- some weeks in AN's schedule include more nutrients than others, which will naturally increase the PPMs. Generally, though, this 20ml base and 10ml everything else (per 3 gal) gets me around 650ppm. I usually will add a bit more RO water to it and mix it up to get it down to the level I want. So it'll take another quarter - to - half gallon to get me down to about 550ppm. On the other side, if I'm changing two plants at the same time -- let's say they're in the veg state together (AN schedule doesn't change much during veg), then I might add two gallons to that 3 gallon mix and bring it down to something like 300ppm, which is usually good for plants that are 2-4 weeks old. So, you're right -- I should be more transparent about my data so that others can learn from my mistakes. Hope this clears that up. I maintain AN's proportions, but then water it down. You can cut the 20/10 ml in half to 10/5 ml and get around 300-400ppm, too. Play around with the numbers, but 600ppm is usually pretty hot for most autoflower strains. My goal here is to reduce the amount of wasted expensive nutrients. Great questions!

@nix_nix, thanks! Been test/developing a new controller with these!
