Some high-stress training was required. Fartbutt (the plant on the right) outgrew the container again, so I intentionally snapped the top to prevent further upward growth (I left it attached so it could still form a central cola.

Ok this is my Full guide with pictures on how to setup a Deep Water Culture grow, items you will need for this grow - Firstly a TENT or ROOM i use a tent REMEMBER stuff you buy NUTRIENTS off eBay and Amazon could be decanted (watered down) , or cheap chinese fakes (Ph Meters, PPM meters) you should really buy these things from you local hydroponics store,as they are guaranteed , i ve dropped a few into the bucket and they are fked,its been a sunday night with a bank holiday monday and i m fked, 1) Ph Down - makes the ph of water LOWER - this is VERY STRONG SHIT , wear gloves and googles if you are messing with it, i drop a bit into my main reservoir Ph 6.9 ( maybe 10ml per 200L) 2) Ph up - makes the Ph go higher - also STRONG SHIT -only needed in Emergencies 3) Ph meter 4) PPM Meter or EC meter 5) 20L Bucket + moulded lid netpot 6) Air Pump ,air hose 3m ,air stone x2, 7) Pebbles to fill to top of netpot, 8) ROOT IT cubes , i use these and ONLY these, by that brand,i know why,and so im telling you, 9) Seeds - I prefer Fast_Buds ,autos ready in 10 weeks of 18/6 - top quality 10) Nutrients, I use Canna as they are the easiest, they have a way of filling the one side , if you take the top off you can squeeze into the measuring side - I would also recommend Advanced Nutrients,but they are more expensive - so you will need 1L Canna Aqua Vega A+B ( it comes as two parts that you cannot mix together , when you put this into the water you MUST stir it well before putting each one in seperately otherwise you will get salts formed and crystals floating around,10 ml per 10L week 1-2 ,15ml per 10L week 3, 20ml per 10L in week 4) 1L Canna Aqua Flores A+B (as above) 25ml per 10L week 5, 30ml per 10L week 6 ,30 ml per 10L week 7 , 25ml per 10L week 8,15ml per 10L week 9, 0 per 10L week 10 250 ml Canna Rhizotonic (roots love this use this from start 20 ml per 10L and cut down after 4 weeks to 5ml per 10L up until week 9 250 ml Canna Cannazym ( breaks down dead roots, enzyme of some sort) 15ml per 10L from week 3 through to week 9 250 ml CannaBoost - (quite expensive but worth it, DWC will show you why) 15ml per 10L week 3 to 4 , 25ml per 10L week 5-9 250 ml Canna PK 13/14 (bud booster) this is optional because you only add it once,personally i add 15 ml per 10L in week 7 so its stays in for 10 days I leave my water for at least 24 hrs before using it, in a big old olive container i bought , i think its 225 L i might be wrong, but it was cheap , solid and had a top :) I check my water levels ,my PH and PPM daily 11) Jubilee clips x3 - to secure the fan ,filter and outlet.( 5 clips if using air cooled hood ) 12) Fans - i have 2 little fans and 1 big one = think about it, outside there is always good air flow - 13) Extractor fan -mine is 6 inch 14) Carbon Filter - mine is 6 inch im not overly impressed with any brand. 15) Ducting- 5m of 6 inch easy enough,well for me... 16) Ballast - LUMATEK -i found this one amazing and switchable. 17) Lightbulb -600w HPS ALL THE WAY but i would use 1000w HPS if i could keep the heat down, they both fit in same fitting 18) Air hood - i have a MAGNUM superXXXL it has screw in holders for glass , they are quite tight 19) Timer for lights , must be good quality , I do 17 hrs on 7 off as it's more natural 20) Syringes for measuring accurately 21) Bucket to mix solutions THE GOLDEN RULE - you can always put in but never take out - never put in too much or undiluted into the reservoir unless you really know what you are doing, less is better than too much . Ppm v EC - you may well buy an EC meter instead of ppm meter there is an easy way to convert between the two ~ 1.0 ec = 500 ppm EC multiply by 1000 then divide by 2 to get ppm This diary will start shortly but as so many people ask me how to setup HERE YOU GO :)

Blue Dream Auto has grown a little, but I think more was going on in the coco mix. I imagine she will make some progress this next week. She looks healthy and she is getting nutrition with the darker shade of green development in her leaves. Everything is going well, and ready for her to shine. 🤣Thank you Medic Grow, and Seedsman. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 https://www.seedsman.com/?a_aid=Mrsour420.

Dear Friends, 👨‍🌾 👩‍🌾 White russian by Seeds Mafia is growing great! Lots of bud sites and good structure. It need a defoliation in flowering stage because a lot of leaves are covering bud sites.. 27/11 transplanted into 15L smart pot ✅ VEGETATIVE week #7 (LAST WEEK) 30/12 SWITCH 12/12H 📅this week goes from 26/12 to 01/01.📅 💡💡💡Viparspectra XS2000 is working at 50% power. 💉🔍Fertilization schedule:🔍💉 26/12 3ml/lt TOP VEG 30/12 TOP MASS 0.2ml/L + 2.2 ml/L TOP VEG 31/12 SENSI CAL MAG EXTRA 2ml/L foliar spray WE ARE BACK!!! We are back after a little pause. We take a break because we were too busy to post high quality diaries. In the last diaries we tried to post as good as possible and we have to publish about 6 or 8 diaries (in addition to these that we will publish shortly). We opened also an educational Instagram page, we growed a lot in a short amount of time BUT, Instagram suspended our account and we lost all our posts, I was so sad and disappointed... a lot of work lost in a night.... Now we started a new grow with six awesome strains!!!!! In this diary you will see our journey with White Russian by our friends Seeds Mafia, sit down and enjoy the show! We are growing in a 15L Smart Pot with Light Mix soil by BioBizz White Russian Feminized was obtained by crossing the AK-47 and White Widow varieties, it has a very short flowering period of 55-65 days. It is especially recommended for outdoor cultivation, such as France and Spain, although it may also adapt to indoors and greenhouses. The harvest flavor is relatively intense during the growth and flowering period. These seeds give excellent plants, both as appearance and effect. The plant has a medium height, it is robust, thick and dense, with flowers full of resin (the crystals occur about 5 weeks after flowering). Having a 22% THC content, White Russian is one of the most popular and potent marijuana varieties. As a result, this strain has a very strong, intense, lasting and rather mind effect 💸💸💸💸💸 Here you can buy seeds of this top shelf strain: https://seedsmafia.com/en/feminized-cannabis-seeds/white-russian-feminized-.html _____________________________________________________________________ 🔧💡OUR SET UP💡🔧 ✔️ 💲💲💲VIPARSPECTRA 🚀🚀🚀🌕🌕 ViparSpectra®️ XS2000 240W Infrared Full Spectrum LED Grow Light: Excellent ratio between wattage and ppfd, excellent light penetraton, perfect light spectrum (it also has IR 🤩) and it has the best build quality on the market.

Jack Herer Auto is coming along nicely. She is starting to bulk now. She is due for a solution change, which might help with the bulking. I will likely do that tomorrow when I have more time. She is growing good for only a 100 watt cold air grow. I been selective defoliating, and I cleaned a little more of the little stuff from underside out. Everything is looking pretty good.

Grüßt euch Freunde! 2 Tage vor dem Ende der 7. Woche sieht es doch schon sehr nach Herbst aus. 👌 Habe die ganze Woche keinen Dünger zugeführt und jeden zweiten Tag 6 Liter Wasser auf 6,5 ph‘ed gegeben. Die Farben die sich hier entwickelt haben flashen mich immernoch jedes mal wenn ich das Zelt aufmache. Der Geruch ist wirklich intensiv und hat was fruchtig erdiges mit leichter Gas Note. Mehr dazu natürlich erst nach dem trocknen und cure. Schätze mal das wir so in 14 Tagen am Ziel sind, bleibt also spannend was da noch passiert. Bis dahin euch allen eine gute Woche!💚

Moved the plants into my stealth closet, under 2 Vipar Spectare XS 1500s. 🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓 ▶️Bud Description Ztrawberriez Auto produces long and fat buds with a beautiful light green shade with oftentimes purplish hues and a thick layer of resin that starts at the top of the flowers and continues all the way to the tip of the sugar leaves. It’s the typical bud structure you would expect from hybrid varieties topped with an explosion of fruity terps that’ll hit you in the face with a blend of creamy, fruity, and sweet aromas as soon as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for terp heads and extractors looking for exaggerated flavors and aromas 🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓 ▶️SOIL MIX 40% ProMix HP 40% Coco Coir 70/30 15% Worm Castings 05% Malibu Compost 🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓 Compost Tea 3 Gallons of Dechlorinated H20 3 Cups Malibu Compost 2T Molasses 2 T Alfalfa Meal (DTE) 2 T Kelp Meal (DTE) 1 T Bat Guano (DTE) 1 teaspoon Rootwise Bio Elixir 1)- I used a small paint strainer to hold my composts, placing an air stone right in the bag and zip-tie it nice and tight - this allows air bubbles to really agitate the micro matter off of the compost and into your tea 2)- I like to mix in the molasses (microbe food) and start my main air stone, the dry amendments and Rootwise can be just measured in the bubbles 3) - Keep the temp of the water warm to 75F/85F - too cool and the microbes reproduce too slowly and too hot will kill them. I do not delete my teas and let the plant pots dry out slightly before feeding.
