FIRST TIME GROWING INDOOR DWC

[Rchap30]

I just started growing indoors. A friend of mine was moving and had no room for his grow tent. So he asked me if I wanted to give indoor a try. I’m growing northern lights it was in veg for 3 weeks and is on its 2nd week of bloom. I’m keeping my ph between 5.8 and 6.1
My ppm is just over 1200. My water temperature is always around 20c-22c I had to fill up plastic bottles with water and put the in the bucket to keep the water temp down. ANY TIPS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. Does my plant look healthy??

Your plant looks healthy and vibrant. A little light on branching, but I bet you'll score 4 solid ounces off of her in the end. Order this:
https://www.amazon.com/Southern-Ag-Friendly-Biological-Fungicide/dp/B00VXQG23O
Southern AG's Biological Friendly Fungicide. It's a concentrated version of the active ingredient in Hydrogaurd. What's it do? You add 1ML for every 5-10 gallons of water to keep your water sterile. Bad bacteria and fungus will not grow in the presence of the active ingredient - bacillus amyloliquefaciens. It actually coats your roots like a protective barrier. I use to run 35% hydrogen peroxide @ 3ml/gallon which gets costly @$20/gallon. Southern AG will solve your sterility issues and you should be able to discontinue the whole frozen bottled water in the reservoir routine.

Johnnynobody Man thanks so much I’ll take all the advice and tips I can get. I have a few different strains bubba kush, purple poison, lemon kush, hash plant, northern lights, blueberry, white widow, and gorillaglue#4 feminized seeds they are gonna be my mother’s. They all came from feminized seeds

Clean, efficient, and you're starting with outstanding genetics. Keep that blue dream and gg#4. Don't let go of them. They're both high potency heavy producers that will serve you well long term. Your foliage looks healthy and happy. You're doing great soldier. Keep rocking it, and definitely treat us to some flower pictures as your ladies progress!

Sorry to bug you Jonnynobody what do you mean when you said a little light on branching??

If you let the plant grow longer in the vegetative 18/6 light cycle the plant will grow taller and generate more side branching. In a nutshell I would suggest letting the girls grow a few weeks longer in the vegetative cycle before putting them into the 12/12 flower cycle. More branching and a larger plant ultimately means more flower sites and a larger harvest. Let your girls bush out a little before you begin flowering for larger harvests

Looking good... think the water should be cooler tho. Put the airnpumpnoutside the tent to pump in cold air

Thanks again oill my light came on 3hs ago and I put the air pump out side the tent and it’s staying around 18.9c-19.2c Any other thoughts or tips would be great

Consider growing in coco next time would be my biggest tip. I find it way easier.... coco drain to waste to waste to be exact.

Dwc does have the most explosive growth, but I think the buds aren't as nice... just my opinion... im sure others might disagree.

Another thing you can do for temps is to insulate your pots by wrapping them in foil insulation stuff. I THINK best target temp is about 17c from what I remember from my dwc attempts in the past.
