C5Rftw's 2nd Deep Water Culture Grow

[C5Rftw]

Day 7 flowering. You cant see too much of a color contrast here but the pistolas are coming out of the tops now.

roots are tinted brown by the nutes... I've gotten use it. Somehow I missed those leaves and hydroton in the water

a little build up on the tank and airstones. Although the feeder tubes are covered inside from it.. I guess I'll have to get some new ones.

Wow, those roots look beastly. Looking great man

My roots usually eat my feeder tubes. By the time I pull the pump out the roots have grown around the tubes. I pull gently to get them out but just gently. If there is any real resistance I let them be and don't ccause any trouble other than having to get new ones for the next grow.

You wouldn't think having something foreign in the tank was all that good but upon inspection I noted that the roots had grown completely through the tube and with the air stones I use and the water moving so fast I'd bet that the nute flowed through the tube as well as it flowed around the "bare" roots. Weird!

yeah somethings def weird n my rez everthing was sanitized or new "the feeder tubes" and the other things r less than a year old anyway

your grow looks great c5

Thx guys, and thx Paulwall for stopping by.

I pull the feeder tubes ASAP, and IMHO, it forces them to grow roots to get their water, and everythime i have seen an explosion of growth rootwise.. I also do this because I only have one pump/1-to-6 irrigation valve/ and feeder tube setup. So i move it around to where I need it.. Has worked pretty good so far

My rating is 4stars not 5? damn, I failed in life.
