Voodoo's 600W Top Fed Rdwc SCROG Random Strain

Ok I'm glad everyone confers with my decision its unfortunate but it had to be done. The waste water problem is solved time to get the ladies back on routine. Man have I got a big night ahead of me just about to finish a 12 hr shift and got a few hrs of work when I get home. Yeehaa! Just as well I have a nice fat bag of motivation for when I get home.
 
Alrighty everyone, Voodooland is back on schedule.

The ladies are back in the tent after a good 24 hrs sleep, now illuminated by a 600w hps @ 12/12 and running 4ml/L cyco bloom, 2ml/L ag-grow, 2ml/L h2o2 ive cut the top feed back to every 2 hrs during the day and one water mid lights out. Ph 5.7, ec 2.3, humidity 50% ish, average light on canopy temp 23c (73.5f), reservoir temp 19c (66f).
I flushed the girls until ec was at 0.6, tap water levels before swapping nutes.
The screen got a bit mangled in the rush so everyone will take a bit to get back in shape so ill post a pic up tomorrow but this is it! bloom baby bloom!
We'll see how much stretch I get, the dark didn't seem to affect them too much but a stray cricket from my reptiles did manage to get his stone on with a few of my leaves.
I had a bit of grow nutes left so I thought id add some to keep the N levels up I will probably continue with this for week one and two of flower or until I see some bud formation.
I sealed my tentvent and added a 6 inch inlet duct not really enough so ill add another tomorrow.
What yall think?
 
Thank god its friedday!!! The girls have handled themselves well everyone looks healthy. my screen got a bit bent up so its hard for me to tell the growth/stretch. The tips look a little yellow but I cant tell if its just the hps spectrum that im not used to.

Happy Friedday SW:circle-of-love:
Looks like the gals didn't even notice their vacation from the box:)
 
Top away my friend. The plants look great. ;)
 
Cheers stealth!
I'm standing here staring into space highly medicated lol and thinking fishy, if you were to run a biologically healthy system as opposed to a sterile system, would it not be beneficial to run a biological trickle filter, as used in aquariums, integrated into your sump to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria?
Just a stoned thought.
 
Amazing how quick the tipped ends recover and the adjacent nodes take over. The Ladies are really powering now every day the tips are needing tucking along at least another grid in the screen sometimes a couple. So it should be full in a week or so, some areas are getting a little cramped already. Alot of the smaller growth is stretching hard toward the screen, I may have to get brutal in the next few days and lose some of the stringy stuff to make room, Ill see how it develops.

I was also thinking I'm guessing your choice of medium would also affect the available room for bacteria to grow.

Howdy SW:) sure you could use those hydrotron balls for your medium and or the biospheres that they sell for a trickle filters bacteria home I would think with out a problem for the fish or your plants.
 
Happy Munchday SW:)
 
I'm a bit late for munchday so happy tokesday fishy! The girls got a good stripping last night all but the top shades went opens up so much light to the smaller growth. Starting to get a lot of tips in the screen now every tim you spread em and open the middle up more come up to replace them. It's a magic system the old scrog!
 
Happy Tokesday to you SW:)
scrogging is a fun way to grow for sure!
 
Near disaster #496.
I had my outlet duct positioned outside my shed and carefully curled so as not to catch rain. You guessed it. Somehow the position of the duct was disturbed, outlet duct fills with water, fan cant handle the pressure blows the duct off of the light, light turns on. I got home (luckily) an hour after lights on and the tent was 31c, the entire tent was absolutely dripping with moisture, humidity was 80%, res was 22c OMG!
Don't worry the ladies seem fine obviously weren't affected for too long by the heat no burn probably suffocated during the night cycle with no fan and high humidity though.
 
1 week since they started their flower cycle and not a pistil in sight. they are drinking a heap and using the nutes too. I was really pumping the grow nutes up around 3.4ec and they loved it, but when I started with these bloom nutes I dropped back to the recommended 2.1, and it dropped so I boosted to 2.4 and it dropped again now at 2.6 ec. Not a huge amount of stretch going on. I think I may have to let it go vertical very soon. should I wait until I see hairs before letting it grow vertically or will it not get enough stretch up if I don't let it go now?
