25 days from flip - how do they look?

3 different strains - white queen and 2 locals - Klondike and stardawg
8 CXB3590 COB LEDs - 5 3500k, 3 6500k - 400w + small 14 w Red/blue LED
Running 3.5 gallon bucket RDWC
Feeding 500-700ppm AN Connosseur at 5.7-5.8 at 66F
Ignore the moisture, it's a floiar spray. Applied once a week.
25 days from flip to 12/12 and wondering how the bud size is.

Should I be doing more or just letting them do their thing? any thoughts appreciated.

looking good, have you done rdwc before?
im on my fist rdwc grow after doing in soil for years and bloody hell they grow fast in the veg stage.
did you top or do any training?

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 plants this size. They need 5 gallon buckets and huge minimum 2" diameter lines between each bucket to really do the setup justice. The roots have been through a lot.

How's your setup going? Flowering soon? What lighst are you using?

Setup is going fine for now but you never know whats round the corner and things seem to happen fast in this rdwc, Soooo soo much faster than my previous soil grows.
I did have some issues with water temps at first but overcame this with bottles of frozen water, it didn't take long for me to get really fed up with doing this so bit the bullet and bought a chiller, since then i have had no problems really and the roots are looking a lot better.


Light is a 600w metal halide for now but prob change over to a 600w sodium or dual spectrum not decided yet.

Been 12/12 for 6 days now so fingers crossed they don't stretch too much.

Have you had any issues with the roots blocking the pipes? my pipes are prob too small as well but just bought a kit so may have to do some mods after this grow.

What lights are you using and what you feeding your ladies on?
