Hey man great grow... jealous of the bubblebucket.

If your wondering about the pistils they should come out 1-2weeks after you set the plant on 12/12, have you done that yet? Of course if its an autostrain it will start flowering when that strain is supposed to, so you would have to check with the seedbank for that info.

Good job adding that extra airstone, the plant was a little droopy I was gonna suggest that more air should help.

Do you have backflow valve on your air tube? You are gonna want to elevate your air pump if you don't have a backflow valve, incase the power goes out your airpump won't get water in it and be destroyed.
And you should be slightly concerned about the temp, 85 is tolerable for the plant but any higher and your going to be adding damage to your baby... Try and add a outake fan or two and get that temp down to 75.

i havent' switched it to 12/12 yet it is only 3 weeks old when should i change its light schedule? about a week ago i just started giving it nutes the proper amount. now it is growing like crazy.
temp is usually 85 at the highest but i can get it down to 70 at night fans are always blowing intake / exaust at night, but trying to keep the noise down live in an apartment and don't want complaints

sure sign of over feeding,too many nutes, ive read in dwc you nutes should be used at like 1/4 strenght, rember less is more, and stay on top of your water levels and p.h. it can change fast in dwc.

yes strain does matter. you may want to double check because a lot of haze varieties are nutrient sensitive.


Great grow for the grower but I had a question on your post.

I'm a newbie grower and want to check what the ppm recommendations were, or to double check so to speak and was wondering what resource I can use ?

THANKS & REP

how far down on a 5 gallon bucket should i fill the water to, should the roots be getting full water as in all the roots under water or should i keep in down low so the mist hits the roots?
help been wondering about this for a while, tonight when i get back from work i will switch the water and lessen the amount of nutes to see if that helps the tips from bending:peace::peace::joint:

only trouble is heat cant keep it below 85 and humidity is at about 30
i have a portable everstar ac unit just like yours, and if you're not venting directly outside it can generate more heat than air! my temps have gotten up to 85 with lights on and my ac is set at 68. but with two fans blowing it actually feels a lot cooler than 85.

So Everything seems to be going good last grow with soil i used 3 flourescent lights and decided it couldn't hurt to add them on the walls. took down space blankets because i felt the white walls would work just as well. nights have been cooler and bottom branches are growing good. reduced nutes to 1/4 strength of flora series recommendations, in another week i will give it full strength. IS THIS A GOOD IDEA OR NOT??? :?: the plant is about 3 and a half weeks old was going to switch lights to 12/12 but am going to let it get bigger 1st check out the pics:hump:
What Week Should I Switch The Lights To 12/12 :?: Filled my 5 gallon up so its to the bottom of the net pot so all roots are submerged plant seems to be less droopy now
ppm is at 860 ans ph is around 6, ordered a digital ph meter to get a proper reading

ohhh lanky sativa haze me likey! tie her down shes going to get huge flowering! those haze plants are notorious stretchers. you can really get away with using half stregth nutes the whole grow. most hydro nute companys tell you to use alot of nutes when you dont really need to. they just want that money

:confused::confused:I Am trying to decide if i let my lights stay on the 18-6 schedule or switching them to 12/12. my plant has no signs of sex still and it is getting pretty big as you can see in the pics, i dont want it to get huge and then when it comes time to flower the light wont reach the buds. the plant is 1 month old now. grow room is 2'x3'x10'. ppm 1150, ph 6.2
Any helpful hints out there :?:kiss-ass
:weed::fire:

I would flower now. I flowered my super silver haze plant at 10 inches and its over 6 feet tall now. Waaaay huge. As for the water level, I keep 3 gallon in the 5 gallon bucket. My water is at 5.8 ph 2100 ppm. The SSH loves it, eats the entire res in about 2-3 days and shows no sign of nute burn or lack of anything at all. The buds are coming in MASSIVE.

So I Spotted Pistils Today Changed Light Cycle to 12/12 yesterday and Today i will change out the nutes to the transition to bloom phase which is 2 tsp per gallon of the flora series, going to put the flouros back up today on the walls because the light is having a hard time reaching bottom leaves
