Re: StiX` First Hydro Grow
OK, I'm still stumped on why alot of the leaves on the WW have light green spots that eventually turn brown ultimately killing the whold leave while the skywalker is showing NO signs of problems at all. I started doing some research into PH imbalances. It appears that PH is more important then I thought. my PH flucuates ALOT. I'm talking 1/2 a point a day it may rise.which is fine as long as I dont let it stay above 6.5 for to long. So, I decided to calibrate my digital ph tester. Apparently it has been reading .3 higher then what my ph actually was. Doesnt seem like a big difference, but when the optimum PH level is between 5.8 - 6.2 there's not much room for error! So, I think I've been causing nute block due to eratic PH levels. I have no clue why my skywalker is doing so well. I do believe I'll be growing skywalker again in my next grow for sure!
Here are a few pics of the good and the not so good
Veg day 18
This WW doesnt look to bad
AH yes! the skywalker
And, the not so good

Re: StiX` First Hydro Grow
It is looking VERY good now. Right after the last nute change the plants started doing much better! I started a test clone a few days ago. It hasnt died yet, so that's a good thing I guess. I'll be happier when I see roots coming through the rapid rooter. Hopefully they will show in the next week. I used a very high dilution 20-1 for softwood. That should work. We'll see. Here are some pics!

CAN YOU PICK OUT THE SKYWALKER???

Re: StiX` First Hydro Grow
oh yeah, I learned something new this week! You can't keep your dehumidifier on HIGH 24/7. I was trying to see how low I could get my humidity in the room. For some reason I couldnt get it below 40%. After a few days I figured out why. My dehumidifier was sucking the water out of my resevoirs. I lost over 10 gallons in 6 days in my flowering resevoir. Which pumped my nute concentration over 1100 PPM. Didnt appear to hurt the plants any though. Just thought I would share that info.

Re: StiX` First Hydro Grow
These plants are mothers brett. they will be in veg for a long time. I plan on taking clones in about a week. Just as soon as my test clone shows roots I'll know my cloning solution dilution was accurate. I figure on having the clones in veg for about 3 weeks before flowering.

Re: StiX` First Hydro Grow
yeah, it makes sense about the dehumidifier. It really caught me off guard though. At first I thought the plants where drinking it all. But that was just to much loss! I'll clone just as soon as my test clone shows roots

Re: StiX` First Hydro Grow
How long are you waiting to put the test clone in to fower is what I meant, my fault didn't make that very clear. lol But you already answered that so, are you going to put any of the clones(like one from each plant) in to flower right away? Just to make sure of females?

Re: StiX` First Hydro Grow
I don't plan on testing the plants sex. I really wanna get this grow started ASAP. I'm gonna trust that they are all females being that I paid top dollar for feminized seeds. Hopefully they are! If not, I've learned something for the next grow Hopefully my test clone shows me roots by monday. That will be the 2 week mark. It looks healthy. It hasnt grown much, if at all. As far as the mothers. My god, they are growing like crazy. I think they are ready to clone now but I'm gonna wait till monday and see whats up with the test clone. I havent given the test clone any nutes at all. I just have it in rapid rooter inside a humidity dome, watering the clone as well as spraying the inside of the entire dome to keep the humidity up. When it comes time to clone, I'm wondering if I could just put them directly into the rainforest and skip the humidity dome. Any suggestions?
Well here's some up to date pictures of the test clone and mothers.
Test clone 10 days
