H-LOC A Hydro Living Organic Coco Expirence

Looking frosty as hell BF, what you're doing is working.

Thanks pw. They are pretty frosty and the nugs look very tight. Im not sure why the difference but they look super dense.

I ran into a problem though. The coco is pretty much clogged and watering is difficult. The water sits on top and drains slowly. Not much i can do now nut we are in the final stretch. I will have to cut the coco at least at a 1:1 ratio of perlite or grow stones.

I will pick some up for my future grows. Water is getting in at least and these girls have only a few more weeks left. 12/12 on 4/12 i am worried about the sativa. Looks like it needs more time

Not sure what to do to increase drainage, lets hope she gets plenty of oxygen.

 

[BedroomFarmer]

The top layer is like soil now! But Its still coco under so should hold o2 hopefully. I have been poking holes to help drain but now makes no difference. Have come chunky growstones in should really help with drainage. Canna coco is mostly fine pith wich i love but seems better for straight water. Adding perlite or growstones should help get the teas moving better but i also put a lot of stuff topdressed and that clogged jt and the aact is making it worse little by little. I think the worst thing i could have done was to put a little ewc ontop.

Should be fine with some growstones, the DE looked like it played a part too.

 

[BedroomFarmer]

I would say the de was a big help in clogging the coco lol!

Its funny because at first it was good. No issues but as time went on some of it didnt wash away it just hardened ontop. Ive been adding DE to the water now basically everything goes into my AACT making it more of a nute tea with bennies. Hopefully having it in a strained tea will drain ok with the grow stones. Even strained there is a good amount of silt.

Dewey gsc xtrm

Chernobyl

Afghan loc

Gsc loc seeded

They have some deficiencies but the next round should be better

What is burning the leaf tips ? Hey man, I voted for you.

DE will dramatically slow drainage. Can you excavate the top, down to the root ball, and put new coco in. Did you drop your gorilla glue into your vortex brewer ??

The plants arent burned... its a K def. Its spotted all along the side of the leaf and tip burned. I used light on the K because coco binds to K. Its just something i have to keep an eye on next grow. Im pretty sure its resolved. The plant that is seeded and turning yellow i think is normal for a seeded plant.

Thanks for the vote man!

I could try to dig it up but im too lazy lol. If it gets any worse i will put new coco or maybe even pot up. Not sure.

Man! Rapidled customer service is the best! Got my question answered at 9:00pm on a sunday via email! Cant wait to buy those drivers!

 

[Pennywise]

Im waiting for you to put yours together before i think about pulling the trigger. Lol

 

[BedroomFarmer]

I cant wait! Im getting close to ordering the drivers but still stuck on a rail. I know most use angled aluminum but its still expensive unless i go to a metal supply shop or something. I want to get it all mounted before the drivers come in but once they are available ill order.

Im trying to think of the cheapest way possible. Even looking into plastics that can take temp. I just want a 8" wide x 3.5 feet long. Ill come up with something.

The plants are almost there!! First week of june but ill have to check for seeds and if they are ready. They didnt pack it on but these gsc xtrm are finicky with nutes and ended up with some k def. The afghan is looking great though. Im happy with the amount of bud for the plants only being in 1 gal fabric pots.

 

[Pennywise]

Cool we'll see how the seeding turns out anyway, as long as you have plenty of afghan you're all set.

 

[BedroomFarmer]

Even with the def i dont think ive grown this kinda quality.

Cant wait for my Afghan mighty grow, grow

 

[Pennywise]

Ok so your going to do Afghan?

 

[BedroomFarmer]

Eh maybe ill leave it up to the viewer. I have 4 afghan. That strain is rocking it in loc. Gsc is more finicky and afghan is great night time meds but i have 4 fem cheese from AMS (not my favorite but is a good yielder) or i have three more strains to choose from. They are regs though and i feel like regs will make for a slow journal as ill have to sex.

 

[Pennywise]

I vote Afghani .
