Buds Buddy Does DWC: Critical 2.0 For The 1st Time

Pennywise said:
It’s doable if you have the space to grow bigger plants. Soil is fine, DWC is a lot of work to really do it right.

I'll try it again sometime down the road when things are set up better. But next time it's in Totes with a Res & Chiller. At least I got a taste of what it's like & a better understanding of how it works.
 
Res and chiller takes so many issues away I think I have had no temp issues and if the tent gets extra warm from full lights the buckets just start sweating then the plants seem to take off
 
I recon it’s 2 weeks away
Had auto’s showing near all cloudy with a few Amber on the sugar leaves and still taken up to 3 weeks.I always wait for the swell to kick in and then checking the trich’s on them to tell me when to pick.
You asked me a couple weeks ago about the potency using just MC under the tsl light,had my first tester today after 2 weeks in c/vault and it kicked my arse:laughtwo:
By far the best grow I’ve done with yield and probably the hardest hitting

Sounds like good stuff. I hope this Critical stuff turns out good. It was OK in soil. But it has way more crystals & at least twice the size of that grow. The buds have definitely swelled on the one plant already. They aren't very long, but they are pretty fat. Hairs seem to be starting to change colors fairly quickly with bright red hairs. I'd say that one is real close.
Well, time to go Top off the buckets & tend to the plants.

Leaves look pretty dark green. You said new growth is kind of deformed / twisted & burnt tips. I'd say you are feeding too strong of nutes. I see some puffiness in the leaves also which means you are over watering. At the size they are I wouldn't feed more than 2 grams of MC per gallon. When you up your nutes, do it slowly. I usually increase by .3 gr. at a time for the 1st 2 - 3 weeks. & then start upping it by .5 gr. after that. Once you get to about 4.5 gr. you have to really watch to see how your plants react. Some plants don't need more then 4.5 gr. some need more. Have to watch color & new growth at this point.
Your plants don't look all that bad. They'll straighten out pretty easy.

I also noticed in one picture a temp gauge reading 100 degrees F, not sure if this has anything to do with it or not.

Yeah, 100 is way too hot. 90 is pushing it. 100 & you'll probably get hermies. Heat Stress.

OK, I've got Water falling / EC-ppm rising / pH rising on 1 DWC plant.
I was at 812 ppm & the next day it was at 900 ppm & today it's at 970 ppm.
So how do I go about lowering ppm ?
Do I just remove some from the bucket & refill with ph'd water ?

That’s about all you can do unless you go with a fresh batch.

Yeah, I guess they didn't need me increasing the nutes the other day. I'll mix a new bucket tonight at lights on. I'm also getting the rusty spots on 2 of the very top leaves. Not sure if it's the nutes, LED's, or a Cal Mag issue because of the ppm thing. Oh well, switch out the bucket & see what happens. I'll upload a pic here shortly.
 
Here's a pic of that leaf. Cal def. or because of too strong of nutes ? The leaves are slightly curled up at the tips also.

It's just on the 2 very top leaves of the plant closest to the light. I've heard LED's can cause this & with it being the 2 top leaves I'm wondering if this is the case. I did raise my light about 6" last night.
I never did buy any Cal Mag & can't get any till Monday. Anything that can be added to supplement it like Epsom Salts, Lemon Juice, etc. ? I'm thinking it will get harvested in about a week so not sure I should do anything ? What's your thoughts ?
