I made it Ronnie, thanks for the invite.
Can you please explain the reason for going from a "Live" reservoir full of beneficial bacteria to a sterile no bennies before you flower?
Im just curious as usual and im sure theres others that would benefit from knowing, thanks.
Stay warm brother.
I can already tell your going to crush your previous run
Can't wait to learn about this new arc light

Hey s1ing bro thanks for making it over.

the reason I switch to sterile res before flower is by this time I have a pretty good root system going, benny's can cause fast ph swings especially in system that runs high D.O. levels when using products like Heavy Prime or Sweet Raw. it turns your system into a benny breeding tank. when that happens plants must compete for O2 in the root zone with the benny's and ph rises fast. it also causes biofilm in your system.
typically benny's don't do well with the strong flower nutes late in flowering either.

so in my case it just makes it more stable and cleaner

I didn't see any mention of co2,but I see a bottle--if ya don't mind,, what range do you keep your room in, and does that size of bottle last a whole grow??

thanks c526 , yes I can hear the 120w air pump a little in the other room. yeah I enrich co2 with a tank system and I like to keep it between 1200-1500ppms lights on , and a ten pound tank last me almost two weeks.

thanks for stopping by

goodluck

welcome Taylormade, I never had good luck with rockwool cubes , I use Root Riot plugs and have had excellent results with them

if u dont pretreat the cubes, that is the main reason seedlings fail in rockwool. soak them in ph5.2-5.5 water for several hours then empty water and put in fresh water with ph 5.5. to help even more add great white shark or voodoo juice. Any rooting agent with Glomus will start seedlings Off beautifully.

Root riot plugs are fine but not so good for cloning. if u start seedlings in root riots, use coco in net pots instead of pebbles or if u use rockwool put rockwool in net pots. it'll give an easier start for u and make no diff to final product.

defoliated the larger plants , cleared all under the screen. still trying to slow them down so the smaller plants catch up. seems I have two phenos. plants responded well to nute bump foliar feeding heavy 16 PFN twice a week.

switched lighting to GLR for the last two weeks of veg.

Thanks ajagunie , Welcome

sub'd,

nice set up, ill follow along and enjoy your grow.
do you find switching to glr before going to flower slows down the stretch or does it make the plants start flowering sooner.

ive not tried mixing the schedule like that so wondered what the idea behind it is, im all for glr and would of used it for this grow but i got my own autos growing so cant use glr, once ive finished testing this last batch of autos ill be using glr only for veg as i find the results are great

thank you and welcome donpaul, I don't have any experience with GLR , I decided to see if I could get them to transition to flower faster by using GLR the last week before I flip to 12 - 12.
