Looks good. The brown isn’t nothing. Don’t mess up the light schedule again.

Why does your rock look wet? Is this top feed dwc, as in a waterfarm setup?

Do you not have a timer?
Sorry guys I'll try not to do that again trying to get my light schedule precise they don't come on or go out at same time and rocks are wet because once they dry I drizzle terpenez per instructions just to wet them and let them dry I use a sprayer and let it come out slow I also top dress with Aurora lbs

Do u not have a timer bro? Fuck if you don’t I send you one! I would hate for you to mess up your crop!! A timer is essential
Top dress is all good. I just wanted to make sure it is not always wet. I’ve seen some peculiar stuff before when the main apical stem stays to wet and moist and for some reason, allows stem rot to set in. Now I’m not saying you show that, I’m just saying, I’ve seen issues. Usually in just rooted clones but nevertheless.
Sweet thanks problem with lights is timers are not high dollar enough to keep correct time my light schedule is 12/12 far reds come on 5 min later rspecs come on 55 min later cmhs come on then one hour before high noon pure uv comes on for 2 hrs and reverse at end of day cmhs only run 10 hrs a day

Ok so you need 4 timers then.. it's not to hard to figure out.
Awesome
I have four timers problem is they are not high dollar and sometimes when a light is supposed to come on 5 min before everything else they don't because mechanical switch pressure holds the time back a little but only sometimes other times they work as they should just a poor man when I can afford higher dollar stuff I'll get it or if they aren't all that expensive I'll pick 4 up just don't know exactly what I have to buy going through personal shit to so sometimes I just don't have the time to research

Well the timers I have are all cheap timers. And they have fucked up before.
These days I use a 8 plug 240 watt light light controller, as well as a Autopilot that controls everything else. They were not cheap, but I don’t like to worry. Every crop, replace one thing, or upgrade one thing. It’s a slow process, but in time you will gather up some much needed stuff. 5 years in my grow room and I just bought my first mini-split.
One thing I did, was started working on my credit at the same time. As time went on, I got some credit with overstock, and Fingerhut. I used them to only get needed stuff to get my first grow in. Paid them off at harvest.
I get why you are doing your lights the way you are. I think I could rearrange your lights, methods, and bring you more bud for less electricity. But first we need to get this run done, and start preparing you for your next.

What did you get from fingerhut? I just opened an account with them so I'm curious.
