Water Farm G-13 Auto Pineapple Express

[The Dawg]

Man The Problems Of A First Grow Came Home From Work And Found The AirHose In Leggs Res Came Off.She Was Not Dry Whew So I Recheck Everything Again.All Is now Well With My Girls.Leggs Is A Real Deep Green And Runt Is Light Green Although She Has Really Started To Sprout Her Serated Leaves And I Do Belive Their Bigger Than Leggs Now.PPM And Ph Are Rising To 230ish And 7.82 So In The Am I Will Drain Out 1 Gallon Of Res Water And Replace It With R/O Ph Water.

I Scored At The Hydro Store.My Guy Sold Me An Super Sun Hood Today For The Price Of A Replacement Cool Tube.He Say's I Will Really Love This Hood.And At 96.00 I Said WTF I'll Give It A Try.Plus It's Really Cool Looking Hood And Fits Perfectly In My Cab.Because I Didn't Spend As Much As I Thought I Would I'm Going To Get A Cheap Digital Walmart Camera This Weekend.So Pic's Will Come Next Week.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Well All Is Well With My Girls.I Had 1 Mishap With 1 Of My Drip Ring's Came Apart.But I'm Taking The Blame For It Cause I Lowered The Light's To 2 Inches Above The Farm Causing A Heat Build Up To Spit The Tube Out Of The Connector.I Found That 3 Inches It The Lowest You Want To Go With 2 26 Watt Cfls'(Lesson Learned)Today I Noticed Runt's Root's Were Growing Up Threw The Hydroton So I Had To Do An Emergency Reroute Her Root's Back South.I Must Say I Was Rather Proud When I Pick Back The Hydroton.Runt Has A Fair Amount Of Spider Root's Growing(Way cool!!!!)It Reminded Me Of My Childhood Day's When I Ruled The Game Of Operation By Milton Bradley.OK I'm Still Running My Lights 24/7 Up To The 14Th Day Thats When I Will Turn On The 400 CMH At A light Schedule Of 20/4 And I Will also Start My Nute Program.I Still Can't Find Any Information On The G-13 Strain Of PE.I Have Read A Fair Amount About The Barney's Farm PE Auto So Hopefully it Will Be Close To Mine.I Cleaned Out Both Res. Tonight.Man There Sure Was Alot Of Clay Dirt In Their.I Will Do Another Complete Change When I Start With The Nute's.Peace And Hair Grease

Has Anyone Else Experience A Drip Ring That Drips Very Slowly And The Closer To My Plant's Root's The Drier The Hydroton Is.I've Been Hand Watering To Keep Moist.I Have Put An 80 Gallon Pump On It And It Doesn't Help.Now On My Second WF The Drip Ring Blows Big Azz Bubbles That Explode Keeping The Hydroton Wet Even when The Pump Is Turn Down.I've Drilled Bigger Holes No Help I Drilled More Holes No Help.I Went To The Hydro Store And Bought An WF Drip Ring Kit No Help.Now I've Noticed That on the Drip Ring That Blows Big Azz Bubbles Hole's Are In The Center Of The Drip Ring And The 2 That Drip Very Slowly are Drilled More On One Side Or Another.So My Stoned Azz Got To Thinking That With The Holes Drilled In The Side The Air Was Pushing The Water Up Through the Hole Causing A Slow Drip And With The Holes Drilled In The Center The Air Is Forcing The Water Out The Holes Causing Big Azz Bubbles.So Tomorrow I Will Head Down To The Local Hardware Store And Get Some 1/4 Flex Water Tube And Make My Own Drip Ring.If Anyone Has Any Other Tips That Worked For Them I'm All Ears.Peace and Hair Grease

Here's An Quick Update On My Girls.Leggs Is 10 Days Old And She Is Already An Inch Tall With Deep Green Serrated Leaves.I Do Believe She Is Also Showing Some Per Flower.I've Read Where The Barney's Farm Pineapple Express Flowers In 14 To 16 Day's So We Will Wait And See.Now Runt Is 9 Day's Old And She's Only About 3/8 Tall And She's Still Lime Green With Small Sprits Of Improvement.She Has Me Concerned Thats For Sure But She Seem To Be Hanging In There!!I Also Have Gotten The Drip Ring In My WF Fixed Now The Hydroton Stays Moist On Top.I Changed The Res Again Tonight Ph Was Getting High But My PPM Was 110.So that Was An Improvement.My Res Temps Are Running About 71-74 Degrees.I Will Start Leggs On 150 PPM Of Nutes In 4 Days And Runt Will Start In 5 Day's.Peace And Hair Grease

Pull the tube up a little it could be pushed down to far blocking the flow.

Thanks CEEJR For Showing A Brother Some Love.However The Drip Ring Is Working To My Satisfaction.Although It's Not Working As Well As My Other One But It's Keeping The Top Layer Of Hydroton Moist.Looks Like A Trip To The Local Irrigation Warehouse Is In My Future Because The Only Tube Home Depot Has Is Clear Vinyl Tubing.The Other Modification's I Made Was I Cut 1/4 Inch Off The Down Tube To Bring It Off The Bottom And I Cut 1 Inch Off The Drip Ring.Peace And Hair Grease

I'm So Stoned Ive Been Rocking Hard.Cause Its On Like Donkey Kong Baby!!!!Let Me Start Off By Saying I Believe Less Is More.I'm Only After Some Killer Bud For Myself.So This Morning I Was Making My Final Adjustments to My Cab In Preparation For Tonights Nute Program To Start Leggs Was Telling Daddy Feed Me.So When I Made The Res Change Tonight What Did I See Roots That Had Made It Through The Upper Res And Was Pole Dancing Down My Air Pipe.No Shit It Was 8 1/2 Long And This Is Only 14 Days After Seed Popped A Taproot.How Fucking Kewl Is That.Ive Got To Get A Camera Dammit!!
OK Nute Program Is Flora Nova Bloom From Start To Finish.I'm Using R/O Water PPM 10 Ph 4.34 Before Nute.I Added 1/4 Tsp Of FNB Bringing My PPM Up To 190 And Ph To 4.73 And The Water Temp Was 62.6.Im Going To Leave The CFL'S On For A Couple Of Days Then I Will fire Up My 400 CMH On A 20/4 Schedule

Now Runt Has Made Some Fantastic Improvement's In Last Few Day's.I Must Say She Has Alot of Moxie.What Really Surprised Me Was That Under A Microscope She Was The Bigger Seed And Real Healthily Looking Unlike Leggs She Was Small And Pale Go Figure???But When She Popped Her Taproot I Knew She was Going To Be A Challenge.After 4 Days Of Germination Her Taproot Was Curled Like A Pigs Tail And Only about 1/4 Inch Long When She Went Into The Waterfarm.She Has Been Starved Of Water and Stressed By Heat.She Has Been Through Hell And She Contuies To Amaze Me.My Baby's Got Heart But She Still Looks Very Un-Healthy So I Will Let Her Tell Me when She's Ready For Nutes I My Even Move Her Out Of The Cab When I Turn My Lights On????? Peace And Hair Grease

I Still Don't Have A Camera Plan On Getting One Soon.

 

[The Dawg]

Runt's Been On My Mind All Day So I Decided To Start Her Nute Program Today 13 Day's Into The WF.R/O Water Ppm 8 Ph 4.31 I Added 10 Drop's Of Flora Nova Bloom.That Brought My Ppm To 113 And My Ph To 4.75.Im Hoping That A Little Nutes Will Jump Start Her???? I Also Took A Sample Of Leggs Res At 23 Hours After Change Ppm 198 Ph 6.80 And Res Temp Was 72 Cab Temp 75.7 And Humidity Was 42 So I Added A Couple Of Wet Cloths To My Cab To Bring Humidity Up.

Why does this have so many views lol?

 

[The Dawg]

Why does this have so many views lol?

Shouldn't you be studying for finials????Maybe their waiting on pics,maybe its because everyone including yourself is growing Barney's Farm Pineapple Express and I'm Growing G-13???So to let everyone know I'm going Camera shopping tomorrow and I should have pics up shortly

The runts nute solution seems to be helping her although I think she might have some bad genetics.She never looked good from the start she looked like a deformed plastic plant.Her first set of leaves was sort of round and curled with no real definition.I will be happy if I can get her to grow.

Now leggs is growing like gangbusters looking real healthy.Her Nute solution is holding steady at ppm 200 Ph 6.78 res temp is 69.

 

[TheChodesman]

[The Dawg]

Finally My Ancient Forest Arrived To Day So I've Got A Batch Of Tea Brewing And In 48 Hours I Can Began to Feed My Roots Some Bennie's.This Is Leggs 17th Day And Runt's 16th Day In The W/F.I Will Be Switching My 400CMH On Tomorrow Morning 20/4 Light Schedule.Runt Is Doing Awesome.She Really Came Around When I Added The Nutes.She Drank A Little Over A QT In 2 Days Raising Her Ppm's Up To 133 So I Added Back With R/O Water and Today Her Ppm's Drop-ed To 130.If Her Ppm's Continue To Drop I Will Change Her Res Out To 200 Ppm.Her Ph Is Leveling Out Around 7.01 Which Is Good News And Her Res Temp's Are At 72.Oh She Also Started To Show Female Traits And Even Is Beginning To Show Flowering.She Going To Be Short And I Hope She Pack's A Punch.Now Leggs Is Very Tall And Sexy.She Started Flowering Yesterday.Her Ppm's Are Slowly Rising To 213 From 200 And She hasn't Drank Alot Of Water Yet Her Ph Is Holding Around 6.98. Res Temp Is 73.
