Another week atleast, looks dank
My camera is only 5 megapixel so it doesn't pick up the orange hairs but definitely another week maybe two depending on how she develops in the next few days lately it's been a standstill and darkening pistols but the leaves still look vibrant near the top so I don't want to kill her if she's going to expand some more

Also considering going to dwc pretty soon but scared of crazy pH levels I read a lot of stories about all-in-one systems and that's about all I can have with my space if you have any input I would appreciate it

I have a number of cuttings from one plant that I experimented with. I tried coco and perlite, straight perlite, coco, DWC with an air stone. They were outside and the air pump fried because of the rain. It did get me some roots to the solution and since then all I do is change out the solution every two weeks. The others are Hempy buckets with a hole two inches up. The pop bottle coco/perlite, perlite, are smaller than the other two which is natural considering the limited root area.

The coco/perlite on the left may be a touch more full than the bucket but then again the cuttings are different. They all got General Hydroponics MaxiGro in veg and MaxiBloom in flower. The perlite one lost a branch due to an accident and I taped up the split which you can see at its trunk. I only fed the non-bucket ones once a day. I would guess that they all would be bigger if I had the bucket aerated more and the medium grows fed throughout the day. Just because I have the coco to reuse my next grows will be in it otherwise the bucket might be something I would try again.

I like what you did with the 2 L bottles and I pretty much set my mind to Coco coir being my next grow dwc seems like taking on a little bit too much unless I'm going for a high quantity grow I appreciate the input and your girls look happy healthy and nice

Thanks. The thing about the DWC from my eyes is it is something I could walk away from for a week or two and not worry about it. The coco I need to water/feed more or less daily. The pop bottles were an interesting experiment. I would have liked to see how much you could squeeze out of one but I planted them later in the season and they went into flower because I had them outdoors.

My first grow I tried using regular fertilizer for the plants and then found out that one of the hydroponic shops in town had the powdered nutes from General Hydroponics. I haven't bothered with pH or conductivity tests and just trusted in the overflow/water changes to take care of itself. The last month or more they have not seen above 10 C (50 F) and after tomorrow I will be doing only indoor lights. I hope they do not mind the change to warm temperatures.

Here's a 12/12 from start. Had to have fell out of the plant that was in that coco pot the last grow. It just came up next to my clone teen that i had recently transplanted. It didn't finish when the crop was done and since I reuse my coco I left it in there for this round. It's finishing up now. No clue what plant it fell out of so not sure what strain it is. I know the donar plant was White Fire but the mother could be White Fire, Wedding Cake, GSC or Garlic Breath. It's smells pretty sweet so I'm guessing WC.
