Day 23

no signs of plants getting better. They have already been flushed out and in only water ph balanced of course.

Water temps upon changin were apx 68 degrees f. Very ideal, after changing water was apx 72, still ideal temps.

I did not do any nutes at all, after spraying it with water, as roseman said to do.

I took pic of one of roots, as it was a brownish dark tan color. Here are pics of the plants as well, notice the light color... Man... This crazy...


Well guys i have been keeping you guys all up to post, and i have tried everything you guys thrown at me... What is going on here?....

Dont forget to check out my soil grow that i am growing along with dwc here check out, come take a look!

you need to purchase and use either cannazyme or hygrozyme.

I dont know alot of anything i am doing my first dwc grow now too. but wont having the tubs wraped in tin foil or mylar what ever you are using make your water too hot. everyone i have heard say that you do not want the water to get too warm in a dwc set up but i could be wrong

lol... as well if i dont use a feeder my plants will die... lol.. i heard it all folks.. look .. my temps are fine.... roots are great... plants are down to 1 due to 2 being males... I am already using hygrozyme and my plant currently has a slight curl in its leave downward which I think is due to a couple reasons. The bathroom isnt such a great place for flowering.. i really need input on the that flowering tent.. seeing how it should be a better enviroment for flowering...

I think for a first timer in dwc.. I am doin pretty decent... I am putting more effort into my soil grow... I made a mistake of doing both at same time... it seems dwc seems more care and monitoring required then soil. Nothing wrong with dwc... but I think I like to get my hands wet in soil and get my equipment right before I really start focusing on dwc. I still keep the plant alive and feed it and take care of it.. Its just I am not rushing to get state of art dwc equipment if you know what I mean.

hey smart, did you check out the link I posted on pg. 20??

no i did... since when did u start sneaking in posts? lol... seriously these subscriptions to these threads dont always tell me someone posted something.. Will read now.. give you my input in a sec.

That is way too much money did you see the links i posted with shipping only cost 128.97 dollars for 4X4... Wonder what makes difference between the two.. I say quality.. but you never know... The ones I was looking at looks decent quality and has mulitple vents wich is a plus.

Hey smartguy I would say go with the second one that you posted. I don't know if it's true or not but I have read that the white PVC can harm your plants so I bought a 2'x4'x7' tent with the mylar-like material just to be safe and I am very happy. Both tents are great to whatever you choose, I'm sure it will work well.

Unsubscribed

Is it white pvc piping yea the second one looks good and is same price but im concerned about buying and saying I dont like i or realize it isnt something right for me.. not like you can actually look at it and feel it.. decisions decisions...

Well I decided to throw the female into a soil. While some say this may kill it, well it was quite the opposite.

After throwing her in a 12/12 cycle and started to see some flowering but nothing drastic. It was a week 1/2 before I decided to throw her in soil. when I did this, I threw her back in with the other plants on 18/6 that is currently in my active grow journal, Moonshine soil grow. Well needless to say she has violently flowered faster then I seen my other plants , and she is right on track!

Here is the pic of her in soil recovering from the transplant in flowering. Please note she had some kind of problem in DWC as the leaves were curling in thining out sorta.. she is recovering and doing great!

Thanks for all who have been watching! I apologize not completing her in DWC, however I feel at this time I am doing to much work with organic soil and dwc at same time. I plan on doing DWC in the future as I have the equipment for it, but I think I am going to stick with soil for now. Thanks for stopping by.

living up to your name, i see. nice job!!!!!

Hey thanks alot.. WEll she is doing awesome.. I am taken by suprised, and I will share this new info on short rider and how to over come the non auto flower.. I mean she is finally taking to the 18/6 and violently flowering.. looking good in the soil, I have no complaints.
