The thing is with 30ltrs PER MIN of O2 PER BUCKET in a 10ltr actual res via 2x huge golf ball stones.....so

I find it hard to belive....theres a lack of o2...in fact there may just be a tad too much......

Maybe its the angle....or maybe the lights were just comming on..OR maybe ive been super cropping the branches because i need to flatten out the mainline and prefer that method to string...but maybe that would just be making excuses now wouldnt it....
Maybe you took pic in dark period that would explain the slight droop curl I ran Dwc years and that's plenty air man for them size red

Anyway finally made my decision!
Going all coco from now on it's just fucking easier! 3 Wilmas getting packed up and replaced by plain ole pots 250ltr butt for hand water
To much work in hydro/dwc (drilled trays) the turnover is very fast but it takes way to much time controlling the bitches they grow that quick and tall and now it's hurting my yield through lack of height/training
Just worried about carrying 5 bags of coco in the spot every 9 week as I used to wash the hydroton and re use cause of that

also when water temps are 22 and above it didn't matter how much air I pumped in they would just droop slight like yours with light on
Winter time came and sorted that shit out for me lol

Go NFT and you can run the whole room from one reservoir. The summer can be difficult with water temperature but a couple of two litre coke bottles frozen sorts that out. No air stones either.
I use two water pumps incase one fails because a failure can fuck your room in two hours

Ive already got the stuff from my old autopot system i just didnt like how the aquavalves made the pots sit in water and log hence the hand water

I think that's setting the standard.

Looks very much like my gingerbread pheno of Jack Frost I had a while back, just as frosty.

Aye the fairy was kind enough to bring me a nice sample.

And yeah, very nice it was.
Proper knockout tackle, it had me rekt for like 4 days on the trot.
Woke up every day with a stone over.

My tolerance is right down mind as before that I'd not smoked in about a month, and then a few months before that.
Regardless, bloody nice effect.
Well impressed, strongest weed I've had in a while.
Last time I had anything better was about a year ago in a random shot bag, one time, never to be seen again.

Aye folk seem to love it, it's a pity it's a bit of a ballache to grow with the stretch of her
