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

I'm also running a RDWC set up, doubt I'll ever go back to soil, for indoor. The speed of growth is amazing. I'm 7 weeks into flower, cant wait to finish so I can start again, lol.
You know what ... I know DWC is Deep Water Culture but what does that R stand for ? Been wondering that for a while now.
 
OK, So I just finished Trimming up my Afghan Kush so I'll post a few pics. Any guesses on a Dry Weight ?
I'll cut & hang her tonight when I put the GG in the closet for her 36 hours of dark time. For some reason my bathroom gets 5 - 6 degrees cooler then the rest of the house so I've been doing my dark time in the linen closet. It's about 71 - 72 F in there.

5.5 oz is my guess.
 
Not sure of your start date but I usually veg for 5 - 6 weeks before starting Flower. Shake the wetness off the leaves. You dont want a lot of water on top as it will cause the light to burn the leaves. Also, you really only need to foliar feed on the underside of the leaves as that's where they drink from. The Top of the leaves are it's Solar Panels so to speak.
 
Well just checked on my plugs but nothing up top yet. Took a peek in the holes in the plugs & can see the seeds have started to pop though. I guess another day or 2.
Got my grommets so I'll do the buckets today & get them tested out. Should I maybe add some Peroxide to the water that I test the buckets with to sterilize them before use ? Should I wash or prep the Hydrotron Stones in any way ?
When I make these buckets ... Do I need to silicone between the bucket & grommet ? Do I need to silicone between the elbow & grommet ? Want to do it right the 1st time so got to ask before I get started. Really don't want to clean the bottom of a flooded tent either ... lol. Thanks for any help !!!

Def wash/rinse the stones. My water level pipe is made to be leak proof with some rubber washers on each side of the hole. But silicone may work assuming you give it enough time to dry and cure.
