Hi everybody!
1 time hydro grower here, has grown outdoors before with some succes, but never inside before
DWC System 2x 110 Gallon with room for 16 plants.
in Roof Qube tent 2.4m x 1.2m x 1.8m
Using 300 watt Cfl for vegging. on the way MH sunmaster
600 Watt hps for flowering. Cooltube adjustawing combo.
On the way 150mm Rhino filter and S & P ventilator. ordered from Basementlighting are base an ok shop?
GHE Nutes + Canna Pk 13/14 when flowering
Process so far.:
I Germed the 09-01-14
And everything went great 21 out of 22 seeds germinated, and I got them into a closed environment, and gave them 55w flouresent light, and had ordered a 300 Watt, but it got a week delayed and my girls got strechy, The 300 watt Cfl finally arrived, and i thought all was good, i gave the girls one day of 300 watt in their current location, in this time the humidity was around 60-80 and temp 27 C.
I moved them, and put them into bigger blocks of rockwool, although i forgot to soak the Rockwool for more than 10 min, thinking it was just to get them wet, not PH neutral, witch i´v learned by reading up afterwards! DOH!
Only having room for 16 some of the #01 and Fruity got put into soil, the #01 took it rarther well, the Fruity not so much.
Not checking if the airstones work proper before filling 110 gallon into the container is also a big mistake, so off course one is not working probarly.
By now some of my plants looked really shitty, some still do :/
and I was like forget about it, let´s just order new seeds, because the place they are in, range from 14-19 degrees, this will however be fixed tomorrow, and the humidity is from 60-85 this will hopefully be fixed when ventilator arrives.
A Miracle in the dark times, suddenly after 1,5 months of vegging, a #01 started a race and suddenly some other girls joined in, so now im like maybe not just trow it all away? And this is where u guys come in, But this time I have done my Research on seeds, and they all are supposed to handle low temps. And I´v learned almost every Rookie mistake since i´v committed em, oooh yeah one last one, not having read up on my bluelab reader and mistankenly thinking that EC and PPM was aprox the same where 6.0 must mean 600 ppm, dont know why I thought that but i dit, and kept flooding with nutes, ending up at 3.0 before i thought something must be wrong, to my puny defence i must say i did it little by little, I do hope i would smell a rat, if it was just one time. But with all these mistakes one cant be totally sure
So Right now im running with tems at 14-18 celcius, and humidity 60-85 watertemp 15 C. and still in veg. EC 3.0
Some of the plants seem fine, others have bendted tips, but no brown spots or tips..
Should i just stop? And try again? or hold it out and see and learn...
I´v made this Growjournal, first of all to warn and tell off all my mistakes so hopefully others won´t make em.. Happy Growing!
