I had to stop giving a shit about my plants. It was killing me to try and keep them happy. Now everything is just the right speed, size, and amount of bs :)

I saw webs on some lower leaves in the clone cab and I just sprayed with neem and kept going. The plants just need to survive until I am ready to plant them outside and then they are on their own!

Cheers,
Mo

I'm sad the Hempies didn't work out for you brotha' =(

Come back and kick some aero ass like you do so well =)
You know, I thought they would be lower maintenance and easier to do everything. Nope not at all, had to drag the pots into the bath tub once a week and water them there. Then wait to drain and back into the tent. Plus the bath tub only holds 3 at a time so I had to alternate plants.

They just ended up being more hassle then I was expecting. Back to aero with timers and less headache.

Today will be watering day. Will be doing straight water and measuring the run off to see where my PH lands and once and for all solve the Hempy Bucket issues!

In the mean time...

HASH:
160, 73 and 45. The 45 came out pretty white while the 73 was more tan. 160 looks like 160, haha.

Well I think I solved my problem with the Hempys... I have to throw away my 100 dollar meter. :wall:.

This picture is literally a few minutes after calibrating. Maybe my eyes are bad but it appears to be way off. The color is green on the test drops and the meter is showing low 6's which should be more yellow.

Just a little update.

My new aero cloner is now ready for use. I think I am going to clone my tomatoes outside to make sure it works. The hempy buckets maybe beyond saving at this point. Def not healthy enough to make a viable clone. Oh well, I have a pack of Purple Marty seeds and a fem sativa pack that has just been sitting here. So if I can get the tomatoers to clone will start the seeds and probably throw away the hempys.

Let you guys know next week.

You ever need any seeds just let me know.
Hey Mo, I really appreciate this! We just went to look at a rental so we may be moving. Once I have a better idea of where we will be for the next year I'll be giving you a shout. Until then everything is kinda on pause. Especially since moving mid flower in Aero isn't really a viable option.

I just had a batch of clones not make it due to my meter being about .7 off... I hadn't calibrated in months since I had been using my guardian in my rdwc....

I have gone through
3 - 4 of the cheap 20 dollar ones (just accidentally dropping them into water and 1 I broke the prob while sticking it into a mason jar).
1 - 50 dollar (broke the prob)
1 - 100 dollar plus replacing the prob once. (algae or something ruined it.)

Just got my newest one in. Maybe I should start a PH meter testing facility, lol. I'll probably start putting them into the storage solution so that I don't have to learn this lesson for the 6th time. There was some algae or something on the last one that went bad. Even after cleaning and re calbirating it wasn't even close to the tester drops. This one will get stored properly and hopefully last for a few years.
