Those girls are in cruise control now, some impressive flowers in there WH! Going to be a lovely harvest for you that’s for sure!

Thanks Irie and congratulations on the MOTM win .

Those buds are bulking up well and look nice and greasy! And as long as there's any green left in those leaves they're working for ya.

I can see them bulking day by day , maybe I didn’t keep those lower leaves for nothing .
I have to get this MC in the cloner already , getting up just before the lights go out to get the numbers. Had been out mowing before the 4th party starts !

Good idea! Tidy and neat for the guests. I'll bet it's gonna be a blast at the Hippie House!

Looking good Hippie! I’m excited to see your test run with the MegaCrop in DWC!

Looking good @West Hippie those colas are impressive

I’m going to use it in the flood and drain. I have four clones waiting to get in that tent . I started it there in veg on the bubble phonics (cloner) .

 

[Dutchman1990]

How have you found the PH in the bubble cloner? I was thinking of adding some to my cuttings so they can sit in there a while longer but don’t want to worry about the ph lol

I’m fixing to go check again ,day before yesterday was 5.8 .

Checked it with the blue lab at 5.77 after checking two days ago .

Looking at the MC ph holding for 4 days at 5.8 , blue lab 5.77 sounds perfect for DWC and my flood&drain.

 

[West Hippie]

Cloner MC with the bench ph pen 5.8 , ppm is probably high 984 ppm . I leveled the scoop to the top didn’t realize it had a line , so about a 1/3 too much . Was at 1099 ppm four days ago ! Girls are getting too big for the cloner !
Should I put the Z7 back in the cloner? Pics of the crowd and lights out !

 

[InTheShed]

I remember that MC says that they're PPMs won't match a local meter, so go with the grams/gallon method and stop measuring the EC.

All leaves still pointing to the light means there hungry or just finishing up ?

Or they're happy? Doesn't seem too warm at the canopy to me at 82º.

When targeting my elements with hydro buddy, my meter always detects about 50% more EC than what hydro buddy predicts. This is because nutrient calculators can only account for the known elements we seek which usually account for less than 20% of the salt's weight. That means there's a lot of unaccounted for inert materials in our salts that still influence the reservoir EC.
