Hello fellow 420 er's. This will be my newest project consisting of a 32L homemade flood&drain. It will house 12 clones. 6 from mother A- Exodus Cheese
6 from mother B- Cinderella 99
I am going to do this a tad bit different from what most would do, and that is to fill the entire 32L tray with "HYDROCORN". I gues this is a close replacement to the traditional HYDROTON, which was mined in Germany. The reason I mention this is because "HYDROTON" was mined from a very special clay that is not easily found. This clay had a property to it that made it puff up and contain tons of tiny oxygenating pores. When used with a good hydroponic fertilizer, it made it un rivaled in the market. Im sure I am missing some info, but Im sure you get the idea. So Lest see 1 how this HYDROCORN holds up. Its made by "GOLDLABEL" which is said to be 1 of the best and a perfered choice in proffesional greenhouses, and it comes from HOLLAND!
In the Tray will be 6 of each and have a 5gallon resivore. With the tray filled, it holds exactly 2gallons of nutrient solution before the water level hits the overflow riser. Checked daily, this typed of setup will help me mataine accurate PPM's and EC in regards to toping off.
Now in regards to the lighting:
Its a 388w LED light.
Right now I have a 3 some going for testing. The test check marks are: 1-water usage
2-max/min ambient temp & media temp
3-nutrient need
4- acceptable RH/variable growth needs
All "HYDROCORN" has been adjusted w/ "EUROPONIC" Rockwool conditioning solution-PH 5.5 (phospheric acid)
When the clones are ready, I will soak the media w/ full strength nutrient. ( what ever the mothers are at)
In the mean time her is the mothers in progress and the clone/flower box.
