    Vertical Cooltube and COB LED Hybrid grow

    Thanks @Thundercat, so cool to see a real OG like yourself take interest in my grow. Means a lot. I definitely will try and find that previous grow with the central light. It was out of necessity at first because I had a 600W reflector and then started doing cooltube research and this idea...

    Vertical Cooltube and COB LED Hybrid grow

    Hey All, Been a while since I posted but I've designed another grow inspired by many awesome grows I've seen on this forum. I over-engineered this one a little but it was a really fun project and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. So I've got 6 plants, 3 Key Lime Kush, 3 Grape OGxChoc...

    Just cut, too early?

    @chemphlegm its a local strain called Klondike. Didn't expect anyone to have heard of it. Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm gonna let it go another 2 days (5 days since this branch) then chop!

    Just cut, too early?

    Hybrid strain grown in RDWC, day 60 from 12/12. Been flushing for 5 days. Cut this branch to do a test of the earlier vs later harvested buds. No scope, won't be getting one in time for this harvest. Should I give them another week?

    K.I.S.S. Retailers hate me..

    Have you ever used or experimented with SOS (Super Organic Stimulator) as well? It's a concoction of bennies that were specifically chosen for their hardiness in a variety of conditions. Did some research and its got some pretty glowing reviews. Would love to put away my chiller as well and am...

    25 days from flip - how do they look?

    Hey neck pod, Yes I topped one and did some serious training with the others using wires to tie them down. Still shooting up a lot but less now. Temperature is now the biggest issue, gets hot in there. This is my first RDWC and I have to say I didn't go big enough with the build to support...

    Deficiency or healthy?

    New growth is showing some strange coloration and new leaves have very thin blades. Mag deficiency? Maybe light bleaching? Plants had some root issues recently Due to high temps but new root growth is pearly white. 6 plants, RDWC, 15 gallons total. Tap water left out for 24 hours for chlorine...

    First time grow, setup advice for LED DWC 4x4

    Hey Not_shower, I'm running a remarkably similar grow right now (RDWC not DWC) and am impressed by this thorough attention to detail. I can't answer all of those questions but based on my very recent experience I've got a few tips for you: 3. I started my seeds in plugs as well and moved...

    Custom RDWC - Stardawg, Sagan's Delight, Klondike, White Queen

    Hey Growers, It's been a long time coming but I'm back on the horse. I wanted to try something different this time and after doing a lot of research decided to do an RDWC system with a waterfall return. As you can see it's a 6 3.5 gallon bucket system with a 5 gallon Res. I went with 3.5s...

    I've got the purps

    3 week old seedling, local strain. Been under a far red spectrum LED for the last few days. I realize this isn't the spectrum it needs at this stage but it's what I have. Going under 3500K soon. Temps are between 50 and 65. Just receiving water. Any idea why it turned so purple?

    New RDWC

    Hey Jaggz, Good looking setup there, very clean. When you said you used shower drain fittings, what did you mean? Is this a type of bulkhead? Any photos of the inside of each bucket would be great. I'm going to build a similar system myself shortly and am wondering about spacing. Are you using...

    CXB3590 Setup Questions

    @SimonBarSinister Thanks for the recommendation. Those are a little expensive so I might go for the cheaper Chinese alternative on Alibaba but definitely going with CXBs! Any info on 2700Ks vs 3000Ks?
