This hempy thing, jeeez Felipe! Being excited like a lil kid at the christmas. I guess in perlite we trust!
That glue is pretty sad - bummer when the grow doesn't go particularly well, like my last run lol
I am thinking of trying some kind of autopot this summer too, maybe a flood n drain
Used to do NFT but that isn't practical here and I don't have room for a 4 pot Wilma type set up, so I may be looking at one 10L bucket, grow one big bush and max it out
Interested to see what you set up
Bummer Glue still lookin pretty poor.. I prob ditch the DWC plant as soon as I need a reservoir for the Autopots.
I’ve got no experience using AutoPots, YET. But shit theyre the thing in 2022 - theres many new variations and I like the Air Domes most. You can set it under the AutoPots. It’s still gravity fed, but air domes oxygenates the water and makes the whole system even more cannabis friendly bottom irrigation system!
I’ll be setting up two 10L hempy buckets and two 15L autopots and will be using like 70/30 coco perlite mix in AutoPots.
3/12/2022 Journal update
Saturday 420fam & growers!
Haven’t had much to update because this auto run has been anything but convenient.
But at least we’ve got something to update this time. Where do we start?
From the prize LED!
@NextLight 420h lamp arrived. FedEx brought it all the way to my door.
I’m truly thankful and hard to put this feeling into the words. Simply amazing!
I’ll be settin up a new journal as soon as I’ve most of the things and new seeds gathered.
Its only a half inch diameter! Amazing!
Jeez this man Verbalist being happier than in a long time!
Hopefully we get the new things up and runnin during the next week.
Then the ladies. Let’s start from the Wedding Cake auto.
Lol I’ve been dumb as f***.. WC is planted in Canna Terra seed mix which is a mix of peat moss, coco coir and sand. The compost pH is buffered down to 5.7 (as the young seedlings likes a bit more acid medium at the start).
Today realized why in the fuck I haven’t checked the runoff pH…. Runoff pH was showing 5.2!
That explains a lot why its not growing properly.
Tried to flush the medium with 8pH water, and managed to get the runoff pH up to 6.1
Now I’ll let the medium dry out and see if she gets any better.
I thiiink 3/12/2022 is auto show’s 34th day.
Wedding Cake auto:
Then next up Gorilla Glue auto in coco / 1gallon AirPot.
Shes comming up nicely. She on day 34 before the initial training:
Her structure/Quad-lining:
New ties adjusted!
And then the bummer Glue
Shit is yellow like a banana. It actually got lil bit of green shade back, the light makes it look more yellowish.
Reservoir provides over 100ppm Ca and the nutrient ratios should be good. I was wondering
@farside05 do you know how cannabis likes if the Boron being derived in form of ”Borax”? Because for me it looks like its not working with the DWC at all.. Almost immediately after switching Remo’s micro (this one has B derived form of Borax) back to GHE Micro the plant got some of the shades back and looks ”more alive”.
ill Glue day 34:
And my daisy-Tangerine swelling mad! I’ve to support that poor plastic lid somehow before the plant being that heavy so the netcup drops thru the lid
Have a nice saturday brothers, sisters, fam and followers!
