So today after adjusting their feeding solution to 350ppm I put the clones and their rapid rooters 1 per bucket into bubble buckets, 3 smallest clones going in 5" net pot lids with hydroton in 2 gallon buckets.
The 2 strongest looking clones went into 6" 5gallon net pot lids with hydroton.
The strongest 2 clones went under the 400Watt HPS at about 36" for first day in their 5 gallon DWC bubble buckets @ 350ppm pH 6 with the air stones buzzing away.
The smallest 3 went into their flowering chamber (shorter area than 400watt are) in their 2 gallon DWC bubble buckets @ 350ppm pH 6 with air stones.
These 3 are about 10" away from 9 23watt (5 6500k 4 2700k) CFLs just because it's a big change today and im having a small heat issue.

The plants look pretty good and I hope they adjust. Their roots are BEAUTIFUL these root shots are of the smallest clone (because it was last). The other clones roots are also all beautiful white and healthy.

The heat in the CFL flowering chamber 207 Watt area is not an issue, 75 near plants, 79 at the top of the chamber.

The 400 Watt chamber is 78-82 where plants are and about 83 in the highest part of chamber where carbon filter is exhausting (plants would never go here.)

I'm going to get 2-3 more small fans to make all air intakes active.

I'm also going to be on the lookout for another small humidifier I can place in the second flowering room to keep humid above 35%

I placed little panda film sheets under the plants around the main stem to deflect light away from bucket.

I am going to make sure and keep the water temps down (going to monitor over next couple of days). Hopefully the ventilation and whatnot will sort itself out with a couple fans.

Thinking of next sat/sun changing system with some h2o2 and 500-650ppm solution.

any questions? comments? concerns? am I fucking this up?

I have a journal going through my profile deal, seams like everyone just starts threads instead of using the journal thing through profile. Or does it automatically file it under forum grow journal as well? :-) :eyesmoke:
