Ok, So we will be within a day or two of each other on the flowering. Whats your ppm at? I ask because I'm only at 700 or so and get brown tips on some of the older fan leaves.

Ok I'm at full strength as well. I think the age of my nutrients is affecting my plant but I'll be flipping soon so I'll suck it up. Lots of roots in my res and I'm assuming the roots have filled in the 2 gallon pot. Just wanted more vertical growth before I flip

Ok, so I almost got on here like a newb screaming out over the weird looking burns on two of the upper leaves. Until I realized while the lights were so close and I raise the pot out of the res and set it there while I I check ph/ppm etc the T5's burned the leaves a little bit. No big problem, Otherwise the plant is healthy. Topped off the res, sucked up 150 ppm in the last two days or so and ph went up to 5.9-6.1 not to bad.

Fluckin ghost town in here...
First day of Flower. Changed the res last night to AN Sensi Bloom A and B, Voodoo Juice and Bud Candy. 8 T5 bulbs overhead and a single CFL on each side. Going to get some more bulbs and Y splitters this coming week and really get the Lumen count up.
PH: 5.8
PPM:701
Res Temp: 66
Room Temp: 77
RH: 20%
Time to see what Advanced Nutrients can bring to the party.

DAY TWO OF FLOWER: Little bit of pistil formation going on. Overnight it sucked down 2 inches of water. topped off the res and found the ppm was 531 so she is definitely drinking up the nutrients. May have to change the res again later in the week and will bump up to 800.
On a cool side note I took a part time yob at Home Depot. Whos gonna use his discount to build a badass grow cab? This guy thats who

They are actually healthier than they look. I think the Bud Candy is staining the roots because a couple of days ago they where bright white. Dug around in the two gallon pot to check out those roots, Bright white and super thick, gotta be the Bud Candy staining them.

getting to the big flower show time that will be cool. THis is my first stumbling attempt at Hydro and Im getting my ass kicked lol at least 2 out out of 3 plants are doing well enough, one Barneys Bubble Cheese and the Pineapple Express are great actually those are in my aero the water farm is a suffering up so heell I look at your work and think damn he's good lol. My western Winds is outside now and man it loves the sun. That will be a good five month project I'm certain.

What are your issues with the WaterFarm? Naw I still have alot to learn lol but thanks. Man I've really been wanting to grow some Pineapple Express or some C99 (spos to be the original pineapple express.
Wish I could grow something outside even just on my balcony haha.

So we are on day two of flower. Earlier in the grow I topped for four main colas and a few days before flipping lights I trimmed off the lower third or so of growth so I don't end up with any popcorn buds. Today I low stress trained her with some zip ties to open up the canopy and make sure it all grows nice and level. Come on 2-4 ounces......

well I screwed up burnt the seedling with a low dose of superthrive 2 weeks into it just had my ratio off I guess. Stunted little runt right now looks like a three day seedling. so i will veg the others along with this one and hope it snaps out of it if not then next week its compost and I will crack another seed in it's place. You should see my backyard though I planted the landscape with stealth in mind last year I still have my landscaping plants to buy but am on a tight budget. Though that Western Winds can get pretty tall so it will be a LST extravaganza out there.

Should definitely start a grow journal good sir as I would like to follow your backyard grow.
Sucks about the seedling. My ph kept going extremely high for the first week or two and then out of nowhere without me doing anything different the ph barely raises one or two points every couple days. Waterfarms are awesome but flucking weird sometimes as well.
Out of curiosity what brand of soil do you use for your western winds? Was originally trying to find a good local Irish potting soil with no luck so now I'm looking to you Brits since the weather is generally the same.

Home made organic with some store bought organic and some mulch from my tree work on top and not to brag but that plant is twice the size of the others.. BTW I am ( and you might refute this) Irish. American Irish yes, but South Boston 1966 you were a half step away from Dublin and if you were not you were not in South Boston lol beside you know us Yanks we truly believe we are wherever our ancestors came from and American at the same time willingly deaf to protests that we are Americans only lol we are a stubborn bunch here.. Though some dispute the lineage some German maybe British heritage - I am adopted by Scotish/ german american parents.
Oh but I will tell you to go to Ireland... I lived loved sang drank smoked skinny dipped and worked with some truly beautiful souls from your country. 27 years still I see them as if right here and miss and love them still.

I guess I would be second Generation American. My grandparents immigrated sometime in the late sixties and decided to live in Colorado of all places. Now I'm stuck in Texas of all places, why they couldn't just stay in Eire is beyond me. I'm confused, your in england right??? So you lived in Boston and immigrated to England? 66 eh? Did you here they arrested Whitey Bulger a few months ago?
What brand do you use? been trying to get something shipped here soil wise just to try it. Organic soil AND sunshine, I should hope its bigger than the indoor ones haha.

Very nice as i remember it good taste and smell and good strength too, i don't think the tude does C99 i think joey weed seeds were the creators and their available at the hemp depot
