Can’t fucking agree more with this! I’m pretty sold on DWC it’ll probably take place of my hempys. We will see how harvest goes.... if it goes well then I’m all in on DWC for my photos in my 4x4 and I’ll be running coco DTW for autos in my 2x4.

Alright @3rd Monkey gotta figure something out lol. So my ppm was 1100 last night this PM it was 750. My freaking plant drank 3/4 of a gallon today I just topped off with plain RO water. Here’s the conundrum. I swap my reservoir on Saturdays. There’s no fucking way I make it from Saturday to Saturday on 1100 ppm with how much it drank. So I’m going to have to add PPM mid week to make it to res change.... I don’t really wanna add straight to my reservoir can I make a soup in a gallon jug with this weeks schedule but make it like 5-8 times the recommended strength and use it and the RO to top off to get me in my ppm range? Another option I have is to run a 5 gallon bucket instead of 3.5 to possibly make it from Saturday to Saturday.... I know you don’t change reservoir but say you did is this how you could go about it? How would you go about it if you DID swap reservoirs?

I do change a res sometimes, for various reasons. It's no big deal if you do. You just mix a new bucket like you would when you start. It's best to let it stabilize for 2-3 days, in my opinion. I don't make a habit out of it because I think it's wasteful and the microbiology.

Yea, you can make a high test gallon and add it, balance it back with RO. It's not ideal, in my opinion, but it won't hurt. The 5 gallon bucket would be the better option though.

Third option is to take the res water from the 3, put it in the 5 and top off.

Alright cool so I knew what to do just verifying lol. I appreciate it! I think I’m going need to move to the 5 gallon bucket. Was t prepared for this lol. I’m going to run the 3’s for veg and flower in 5’s from here on out. May go to bigger reservoirs in the future now that I’m seeing where these issues are coming up. The fucking growth is getting insane I mean it’s put on 4”-5” in 4 days from flip. I mean crazy quick. I’ve bought a 2x4 tent to compliment my 4x4 fucking stoked. I’ll probably Be running autos in the 2x4 and photos in the 4x4. lol absolutely loving the DWC.

Thank you! The Banana Hammock is a funky bitch to grow. She’s definitely getting stout though. I’m glad she’s the one I’m learning the DWC on because she’s such a tough one to grow. Hopefully it’ll make the easier ones to grow a walk in the park. The LSD definitely happy. Can’t wait for her to take off. Did you add nutes to begin with? Or are you in straight water? Those Bosleys look great! So does that DWC girl!

Yeah, I cant remember the exact ppms I put in. Something like 115ppm of base nutes and then like 3ml of hydroguard. Her roots havent hit the water yet.

My trainwreck dwc seems to have taken the nuted water just fine so far. I even bumped her up a little already.
