Question,

I seem to do well with my rockwool grows after I get through the initial veg stage. Once they grab hold and take off I'm good. The first two weeks are brutal for me though. I'm running RO water and GH nutes, 4x8 tray and 2000w. Any advice regarding watering or nutes in the critical first two weeks? I feel as if I'm a logical person but still cannot dial it in. I'm ready for soil...
It's the large RW compared to size of the plants. Had me beating my head on the wall first round, switched to 2 gal smartpots with 50% hydroton 50% rw minicubes (salad crouton size). 100% difference, and the rw makes it so watering 3x/day is possible all the way through flower. Don't regress to dirt!

just pay careful attention to your ladies. they will let you know when they need to be watered. when they do give them some. thats all i do. but definately dont overwater them the first couple weeks. you want those roots to shoot down and spread out seeking out the water.

here we go :hump:
yep:hump::hump:

Im here alllllll the way rabah good luck bro.
thanks. im hoping for the best.

I love the look of the room and you should throw up a poll and see what people guess. I love guessing the weights before grows.

too late to put a poll now. Unless a mod will add one to my thread. im hoping for 8lb's

Ypu can still do scrog's with very short veg times boomer, you just neede to use more plants. My current grow is the perfect example of that. I had 3 larger clones flowered at about 18"(about 4 weeks old) on the left side and 6 smaller clones flowered at about 6-8"(about 2 weeks old) that filled out the same 3'x4' area almost equally.

res change today. 8 ml/gal of micro, 16 ml/gal of bloom, 8 ml/gal of hygrozyme, and 4 ml/gal of diamond nectar. no floranectar yet. ive never used diamond nectar or hygrozyme before. ill let you know how they react... the diamond nectar is supposed to increase nutrient uptake... hopefully they dont get burned

Def Subscribed! This should be a hell of a journey..

Im currently thinking of switching from hygrozyme to H202, hygrozyme seems to work less and less as the grow goes, seems like your constantly adding more and more to keep the ROT away... Atleast that has been my experience with it... :leaf:

Hey rb. Do you think that adding the big bud to your last grow was a big benefit? What ml/gal did u do? Did u use cal mag or just the bloom micro and big bud

i do think it was benefit. not sure how much but my buds did swell up real nice. i use the powder form and i used it at 3/4 strength of what recomended. i didnt use cal mag. jus bloom micro and big bud. if your going to go that route i would suggest you use that and then try overdrive. ive heard that it works pretty well.

BTW. switched to flower yesterday. pics to come soon. they are all looking excellent. they responded real well to the nutes. no burning or anything. they are all 8 - 10". they've been growing faster than usual. but ive been vegging with co2. i hadnt before because i was using bottled co2. this generator is coming in handy. and im still on my first tank of propane. its not even half empty yet.... in all my grows i have never switched them when they were this big or this healthy. im predicting a excellent yield. im going to go out on a limb here and say 9 - 10lbs... feel free to critisize and bring me back down to earth at anytime... lol

Damn, I am glad I stumbled accross this one. Very nice set-up man. You got me thinking of changing to a SOG now. I read your previous journal, is this your first run under 4k? If not what kind of yeild have you been seeing per light. I read that you got 2.5 lbs under 2k, but did you have another round between that one and now? Anyway, I am glad I got a seat for this one. ~ scribed

yes definately a chance. thats the main reason im trying the querkle and GDP right now. i would love to have a monster yielder that would give me an ounce per lady. ive been reading high times and looking for some new strains as well.
