Hello all hempy bucket growers out there! I am just getting my feet wet with hempy while doing some dwc on the side and need some guidance.
I have been getting pretty frustrated with dwc especially during the seedling period as plants are so fragile and dwc is not forgiving at all.
I was given some very large clones this weekend and I moved them to 5 gallon canna coco+perlite mix hempy with a rock base. These clones came in 16 oz Solo cups so they were pretty pissed and root bound. I am not 100% sure how to go about nute feed half way this stage considering how big these are! My buddy uses soil and organic stuff so I can't really translate nute schedule.. I use GHflora trio and calimagic for nutes, RO water and I added some Mykos at root level when I moved them to their hempys.
Obviously the roots are not near the bottom yet so should I water every day or every other day? Its been 2 days and the coco still feels moist at top....
What should ec/ppm be at this stage? First feed I went a bit heavy (1.5ec) based on some quick research that I did since Coco and perlite have no nutrients. Is that too much?
Any help for those out there would be awesome! Here is a pic of my current set up.
I'm a bit cornfused
Are u running those 5gal buckets as a Hempy with a single hole?
Not sure it's going to wick the same with all that Coco in it
Interesting concept though
