The Seven Day Test Report

Airstone vs None....Co2 vs None....Multi Spec vs None....T5 vs MH

7.23.13 = the CO2 unit has shown greater leaf size growth than all other units.....The Multi spec. T5 has shown greater plant structure & tighter leaf to node uniformity....the T5 seedling is exhibiting less stretch than the MH seeding; despite a critical calcium def.

7.24.13 = Purple Dream under T5 is giving less stretch than the Pura Vida under 250w MH....The Golden Triangle in the Coco with the airstone was a failure...the bubbles from the airstone caused the fine coarse coco to sink thru the bottom of the net....

7.25.13= The airstone was placed inside the DWC bucket without water...the (8 ) bulb T5 @ 5" away has out performed the 250W MH @ 10" away...The multi Spec T5 has tighter nodes & better veg structure than the ( 8 ) bulb T5...

7.26.13= All units have remained untouched...

7.27.13= The airstone inside the empty DWC bucket was a failure...the lack of moisture outside of the net pot dried the fine root hairs....The airstone was then placed in a single gallon of RO water @ 300ppms...inside 3 of the 8 buckets....*** all buckets remained top feed***

7.28.13= The amount of root growth within the shallow water culture (1 gallon) was explosive....the fine root hairs (fuzzy) were not as pronounced in the shallow water culture... but the root stem numbers were incredible....The CO2 performs best at 2 hour periods...1 hour to inject & 1 hour of exposure. ***without a ppm meter CO2 monitoring is less than accurate***

7.29.13= As a result of the shallow water CoCo coir bucket....3 of the 5 remaining none airstone buckets were converted...of those 3 ...the fine root hairs from the top feed buckets grew dense & root stems developed 1/4-5/8" within 24 hours... *** all 8 buckets were introduced to Great White Shark/Rootbastic/& RapidStart***

T5 (8 ) bulb + CO2 + Multi spectrum + shallow water Airstone = the best results....*** I will be posting photo of this test***
