420's West Hippie Grows Candy Kush & Krush, Goliath 1k MH/HPS DWC

03/22/23 day 24 of 12/12
I’m sure both have slowed on nutrients uptake from the defol, but the buds are filling in just fine . I need to check the PH at lights out but I’ll have the kids after lunch, the spoiler begins.
I went to pick the lid up to slide back and broke the lid , I think this girl is pushing the top to the tote in . I tightened the net hoping for some relief.

Yours grow so fast I can barely keep up. :laugh:
Nothing like DWC when dialed in, using the same nutrient for over two years . Next grow it won’t be the same newer version of the same nutrients .

Candy is holding her pose , PH was falling again on both girls. I guess we could call it a clean sweep through the nutrients. I like adjusting to a lower PH and watch the rise but this is working.

Candy’s working out building buds . Went back to her heavy drinking. With all of these tops I think I need about 10 five feet dowels to help separate the tops . Really don’t know if they make them that long but mama is going to Micheals to check. And more pipe cleaners.

Okay took a day off , had to ride yesterday knowing I have to mix Monday’s Miss Candy Kush water and nutrients change. Was a little chilly in spots.
With Candy can’t spot any deficiencies. The fan leaves at the top , far back side was a little fried touching the light . As long as it didn’t touch it was not hurt , not even a curl . All of the work getting Candy inside the net pvc lasted for a week. I guess the weight has them slowing laying to the outside. Was trying to weave these dowel rods and separate the tops a little better, tougher than I’d anticipated. Not giving up yet , while I mix these nutrients I’ll keep trying.

Saw a gnat the other day so I got the SNS 209 out . I put 5 mL a gallon = 75 mL in both reservoirs . I gave up on the foliar spray of the 209 , the reservoir is where they’ll show up if you get them in hydro. Candy’s lid is not doing too healthy . Besides the blue hue shines right through the lid and just noticed when I took a pic of the roots . Back side of the roots are full and can’t push the lid any wider open .

Gorgeous plants!! I think I will hang around here awhile and learn about growing the special ladies. I hope I'm still alive when it does go legal. I want to grow some landrace cannabis. The old stuff that I experienced when I was this age<<<see avatar. My stoner-hippie boyfriend took that pic. I have a lot to learn. I had no idea you had to have the water at a certain temp.

That's only with Hydroponics. Water Temps, EC, pH, etc. need to be closely monitored. From what I'm seeing he's got it down really good. He's surely someone who does Hydro would want to follow.
I do soil so I just let my water sit 24 hours so it gases off chlorine & gets to room temp.

Looks like you should get that 2 lbs. to me. Sweet looking gal ! Do you run a Chiller in your Hydro System ? I did DWC before but keeping the water cool was too hard. I was growing in my shed in AZ. in the summer so it was just too hot for it to work well.
So what kind of yield did you pull on your first attempt ? (Found it 28 oz.) I'm on my first try now. I never planned to try it, until I pulled 1.25 lbs. from a plant on accident. Was just trying to grow an average 8 oz. plant & it just took off on me. That got my curiosity up so thought I'd actually try to pull 2 lbs. from 1 plant.
