Well its been a long time since i'v done one of these. But here we GO!
Strain: Lambs Bread autoflower (mostly sativa)
Seeds broke the rooters November 7th
Indoor 4x4x6.5 tent.
315 CMH run off a galaxy digital ballast
6" can fan with scrubber for exhaust running about 60% power on a dimmer.
30 liter DWC (50 liter tote) - AN PH perfect 3 part, with sensi mag. Big bud, and rhino skin for later. (will also move the lid over to a 50(70) liter tote if needed.
RH 50%
74F ambient temp.
65F res temp. Have a chiller on standby if it wanders from this zone.
4 x 6" airstones run off an eco-air commercial air pump #3
2- 6" huricane clip ons, and a 8"
Created the tub for 4 plants. but am doing a test run on two plants first.
FIRST UP! The tent a seedling shot, and my first issue. Looks like my rapid rooters were wicking too much salts into them and started to burn. so for the rest of the week i flushed the pots with RO water once a day until the roots took over and i could lower the reservoir a bit.
Week 1
Day 1 res 65F 0 ppm sprouted nov 7th
Day 2 res 64F 280 ppm
Day 3 res 62F 290ppm
Day 4 res 65F 290ppm roots poking through!
Day 5 res 64F 280ppm
Day 6 res 63F yellow tips on one. dumped res. other looks good. flushed pots with RO. Reset nutes at a 1-1-1 GMB ratio , 0.5 cal mag ratio 300ppm
Day 7 res 64F 300ppm damage not progressing. new growth looks good.
Week 2 - few pictures of how it recovered, and a few of the end of week 2
Day 1 res 65f 300ppm no issues to note. growth speeding up
Day 2 res 65f 300ppm no issues to note. stopping my top up until level drops enough. now have a few long roots. no point in water level being too high now.
Day 3 res 64f 310 ppm no issues to note
Day 4 res 65F 310 ppm no issues to note
Day 5 res 63F 320 ppm slow rise of ppm. no issues to note.
Day 6 res 64f 320 ppm no issues to note. roots just hit the bottom of my tote
Day 7 res 64f 310 ppm (flushed pots with RO today, brought the ppm down slightly.
Currently on week 3 pictures are from today (day 4 of week 3)
Day 1 res 66F 330 ppm. added 30ppm rhino skin. No issues to note. growing well
day 2 res 66f 340ppm . still no top up, oppm dropped a bit
day 3 res 66f 330 ppm still no top up. no issues to note
day 4 res 65f 320ppm still no top up no issues to note
The brown you see on the roots is some hydroton dust.
Ill be updating at the end of each week from here on
Tips/Tricks welcome!
