    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 56 - Reservoir change day All of the plants received a fresh ~3.6 gallons H2O, 20 mL GH Floramicro, 40mL GH Florabloom, and ~3mL Superthrive. I also did quite a bit of low-stress training and supercropping today. The bulkiness and bushiness of the plants has increased so much I no longer...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 49 Ok, here are the pictures I took last night. I apologize for the poor quality, but they show the gist of things. Here is the current setup; a fan pushing air into the closet, a fan pushing air over the plants, five 14 watt LED panels set up to work like reflectors, and the 250 watt...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 48 - Reservoir change day Today I decided that maintaining Dwarf-Dwarf was more trouble than it was worth, so now I'm down to three plants. Dwarf-Dwarf had not sexed yet, had irregular and asymmetrical node and branch development, and it was much smaller than all of the other plants. So...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 43 Yesterday I meant to use tablespoons to measure my nutrients but I realized today that I was using a teaspoon measurer, so I only gave the plants 1/3rd as much food as I meant too. To rectify the situation I added 1/2 Tbls of micro and 1 Tbls bloom to raise the concentrations closer to...

    This is the closet; you can see here the oscillating fan, the LED panels, the 250 HPS, air pumps, air tubing, a white tee shirt acting as a reflector, and some of the plants. K.R. E.M. G.L. Dwarf-dwarf Another shot of the closet showing the tangle of wires and tubes.

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 42 - Reservoir change day It has been nine days since the last reservoir change. I chopped one of my plants a couple of days ago and another one today, both were male. I have been able to identity the remaining three big plants as females and the sexual identity of the tiny one is still...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    I don't think people have been replying because I haven't posted any pics and also this isn't a special grow of any sort; just six lowryders in a closet in DWC buckets. But it doesn't bother me that no one has been posting, this journal is a reference for me later more than anything. I've...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 33 - Reservoir change day So it has been eight days since I moved the plants into their buckets. All but one look to be doing very well. When I was changing their nutrient solutions today I saw that four of the six already had a few long thin roots hanging down into the solution. Before...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 29 I hung the 250 watt MH yesterday. I forget how hot that bulb gets. The temperature in the closet now hovers in the high 80s. I removed the two 42 watt red CFLs in an attempt to reduce the heat. The plants have all been in this high heat for over 24 hours and they seem to be thriving. All...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 25 A few days ago the plants were looking heat stressed and withered. I removed the top led panel from the led cube the plants were bunkered inside of and this alleviated the problem. I also set up my oscillating fan to circulate air over them. I also have been giving them ample mistings...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 19 The sprouts are looking healthy and hale. They were looking a bit stretched out so I upped their lighting. They used to be under an A-frame arrangement of two 16 watt LED panels. Now they are inside of a cube shaped bunker made of five LED panels, four acting as walls with one resting on...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 14 So with the holidays going on and being in the middle of moving to a new place I've been very distracted and busy. I checked on my poor seeds that I had forgotten (neglected) yesterday evening. All of them but three had sprouted, some had cotyledons looking for light. They all had long...

    Day 3 I checked the seeds today, one of them has sprouted a root tip. I assume that the rest will sprout soon too and I will be planting them tomorrow or the day after. Nothing further to report. blast off! -AD

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    Day 2 So I wrapped the beans in a wet paper towel and put them in a tupperware container. I tucked this germination chamber in a dark place and I'll be checking it once a day for root tips. Once they germinate I'll be planting them in solo cups with Fox Farms light warrior soil under a humidity...

    Lowryder DWC-bucket grow

    So I've been growing for about a year now and I've decided to mark the anniversary by doing another grow journal. My first grow was DWC so this grow will too be DWC, but I will remember the lessons I have learned from past experiences, hopefully. I'm going with lowryder because I have a bounty...

    STMusic invite code?

    Does anyone have an invite code for STMusic that they can spare for a fellow RUIer and ex-oink member? I've been using demonoid for a little while now, but it isn't that great and I want to try something new. +rep for help
