Hey guys so here is my 2nd attempt of Querkle in hydro. It's been a fun journey so far, can't say it's been a totally smooth one, but it's definitely a blast.

Setup:
-Clay pellet
-Drip feed (3 emitters per plant)
-3x3 table
-20 gal res.
-Light: 400mh >> 600mh >> Sight of first calyx >> 600hps >> 750hps
-Ramp the watering cycle from 4/day (when they are small) up to 8/day (during peak flower) 15 min. intervals
-Clones are started in 1in. rockwool cubes, then placed in 4in. baskets full of clay pellets.
-Once rooted they are vegged under a couple of T-5's for about 3 weeks before entering the main tent.
-Once clones are big enough (~12in.) they go into the main tent. The 4in. baskets are placed into 3gal. air-pots, which are also filled with clay pellets.
-Vegged 3 weeks in the main tent before 12/12.

The Space Queen dominant pheno has a lot more vigor, it does great in veg. The Purple Urkle dominant pheno grows pretty slow compared to its sister, but with patience yields some purple deliciousness. They both produce great bud, however the P.U. dominant looks and smells amazing, kind of a sweet smooth fuely smell.

Alright enough talk here are some pics. Any feedback/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Still in the small veg tent:
Don't mind the two stragglers, they didn't make the cut.

Just put into main tent (I veg here for ~3 weeks before the flip)
400w mh>>600w mh

You can notice the two different phenos just by the size difference, I wish I had some more space to do a separate table for each...someday.

I now go from 600w mh>>600w hps

Let the fun begin!
I always start my flower clock 7 days after 12/12, just my way of having a reference between my grows. I start 7 days in because the plants take at least a week to fully transition into flower mode after the flip.

The hood is maxed out in the tent, otherwise I would go higher.
