What does everyone do when you'r root's fill the bucket's? And there is not much more room left?

ATRUMBLOOD- How is the new pump doing? I am using A large fish tank pump rated for 100gal on each bucket, and they just don't have the power now that the buckets are full.... My blower is just so noisey and there is A bed room right next to my room.... Has anyone come up with A way to quiet them down?


Pump is doing good man. My plant has a jacuzzi going on in my single bucket grow haha.

Check my grow out, There is an update.
and here are some pics. :)

ya your grow is great.... Man I wish I could use my blower but it is way to loud! I did just find some pump's that I may give A try....

These are the pumps I might buy http://organic-hydroponicsupplies.thebigtomato.com/shared/StoreFront/default.asp?CS=tbt&StoreType=BtoC&Count1=335216701&Count2=252357125&CategoryID=10&Target=products.asp

:weed:what up all? meet Gloria & Napoleon. They live under 13 cfls, in 4" net pots that contain lava rock & co co mulch. They have been fed GH grow in a 10 gal tank and were born 1 JULY. She is 9" tall He is only about 3" They are from bag seed.

THIS IS MY FIRST GROW, SO HELP ME OUT PLEASE
Ummm...You don' need any help with Gloria. She's just incredible.

Napoleon is just short cuz you named him Napoleon. :lol:

These are clearly 2 VERY different strains. I would imagine you are keeping the male to pollinate her. This probably isn't the male plant to do that with IMO. Due to the size difference and the shared rez, there's a good chance you're going to run into nute issues. She'll need more than he will and he will burn at the ppm that she needs (not definate, but likely). I would suggest seperating their rez's and figuring out if you really want to breed the 2 together. Given his short stature and I imagine tight node spacing, collecting and freezing his pollen does have it's advantages for later crosses with known strains to try and keep them shorter.

Good luck and listen to the people in this thread. They consistently get great results and are very helpful. Good luck.

I have A quick and hopefully simple question! I am getting ready to put some clones into my DWC bucket's that will 1 day be my mothers... Were should I keep my PH from seedling to mother? Does it change with the age of the plant? I was told to start them at 5.8 and then on the second month togo to 6.0. Any truth to this?

Hey guys, my girl is in a square bucket 20 inches deep, 2 duel outlet air pumps, 2 air stones. she is 3ft tall & 2ft wide, 5 weeks flower, the thing is the roots are sooo long they are to the bottom of the bucket and folding over and piling up, and is starting to restrict the air, should i get a deeper bucket, cuz her mom flowered 10 weeks, I aint going to but have you herd of trimming roots? i can rearrange roots and stones every day to keep everything bubbling, is that what you would do

That is pretty much what i had to do in a 3 gallon bucket.
You could put in a bigger,but the roots will grow and fill it up to..
