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

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.
Welcome to the grow and thanks . I’m working on 69 , copd , emphysema, and asthma. With H1N1 and Covid trying to do us in . If I hadn’t came to 420 I wouldn’t be able to get high since I can’t smoke anymore with out getting pneumonia I press my own rosin and make capsules . Always nice to be the Guinea after making them from new grows and my baddest was dosidos definitely nap time . My greatest capsules is Acapulco Gold .
Winter time still hanging around I could let the water go 65 f easily but that’s not till the last three weeks of flower I’ll be trying for some color in this girl . 65 has the maximum oxygen levels but at 73 the girl wants to explode in growth , plus I’m feeding extra oxygen to make up for the temp , advantage of hydro .
Have a great day and enjoy 420 .
 
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.
Thanks Buds Buddy , no need for the chiller right now . Winter temps are still hanging around. I have a 12 ton a/c in a 12’x16’ out building that maintains what ever I want even in 100 f temps , heavily insulated. Neil from Perfect Sun Led gave me a Goliath to test run but spider mites took over on the first run and pulled them at 90% cloudy .
The Rifleman just did 1100 grams in a 5’x5’ plus the @Bassman59 was doing it constantly.
So you know it’s our turn to do the same cause I’m not slowing down till I do two pounds and then some .

I'll probably just give it the one try.... for now at least. It's not really a goal of mine. Just was curious if I could or not.
I'd rather do more of a variety of plants & not have to veg so long. I'm plenty happy with an 8 oz. plant when I have several strains going at once. My next grow will be 8 different strains in 3 gal. pots with a quick 5-6 week veg & flip to flower so I'll be happy to pull 5-6 oz. per plant. Got so many new seeds & I want to try them all.... lol.

Y'all are so lucky to be able to grow your own. I just drank a whole bottle of red and I'm fixing to vape some Delta 8 because my hands hurt so bad. I guess that is what I get for playing SSX Tricky with my granddaughter. That is the only thing that helps my arthritis. There are some people on Facebook that are willing to ship some real "medicine" to my place of residence but I can't take that chance with the association law in this state. I can't take the chance of my daughter ending up in jail and my granddaughter in foster care. I'm willing to sacrifice my health for my family's well-being.

Nice to have plenty seeds , mine were crushed coming through customs or the post office. One out of 10 Candy Kush so far and I still have 10 more but will they come see me . Forgot about the three blue dream . Hopefully soon I’ll pick what I want but it looks like outside plants for my indoor grow is what I need to play with .

Normally Candy would be 6 gallons in two days but the root pic I took awhile back suggests I’m filling her tote too high . The lid is caving in and I have the net as tight as it can go trying to hold her up .

That plant just turned it up another notch with the bud development. Looking good to my eye. :cheesygrinsmiley::bong:
I wish you can see what I see , a pic doesn’t do it any justice. Definitely taking off filling in .

Candy has spread out just as needed . Don’t have the room like the last grow to take a pic from the top . On the back side I’ll have to support them there hanging over the edge .

Water level down 3 gallon
Water temp 73.1 f
PH 5.5 was 5.8
Candy’s fresh tote

I cut back two gallons because the roots had the level too high stalling this girl .
Water temp 73.0 f I’m not going to let the water temp go lower than 70 f , don’t want to stunt this gal for some color in the leaves . Max grow this time , we’ll do some five week vegs later .
PH 5.4 adjusted to 5.8
Canopy temp 79.3 had to put the a/c temp sensor back on , my AllenBradley sensor has quit , next stop Renolds .



Candy is playing a tune on the Goliath
