very nice man, +rep dude.

I've counted over 55 individual nice bud sites. I'm stoked my canopy is looking beautiful and I didn't think I'd be able to achieve this my first time doing a SCRoG. After weaving through veg, SCRoG is almost no work or worry...Anyways,

PPM: 950-1100
Res Temps: 65-70 Degrees

Nutrients:
-8ml/g (24ml) Cutting Edge Solutions Micro
-15ml/g (45ml) Cutting Edge Solutions Bloom
-5ml/g (10ml) Silica Blast
-5ml/g (5ml) CalMg+
-45ml/g (45ml) Budswel (Super Bat Guano)

I've got my PG260 at about 10-12" above the tops of the budsites. I've been wanting to lower it, however since it's a SCRoG I think I can get a little better overall coverage for all of the canopy. Any suggestions/thoughts? I think it's doing okay so far, I actually vegged near this height too.

For my next grow, I want to throw in CFL's on each side of my grow tent, or invest in some Kessil H350's I'm so fucking anxious for CREE's new silicon chipsets!

Thanks Dawg Yes, the nutes I've been using have been awesome to my roots, gonna add Cannazym to my next grow though, or possibly this upcoming res change I would say that I fill my 5-gal bucket to about 3-3.5 gallons. I like leaving room between the water surface and the net pot. I always use less nutrients than advertised and try to stay below 1100 PPM. I don't feel a plant needs anymore than this.

Ty You Brother I Just Got Back From The Hydro Store.I Bought A 5gl Bucket With A 6 Inch Net Pot.Going To Build My Next Waterfarm With Attached Screen TonightIn My Research The People That Ran Higher Than 1200 Ppm Have Way More Problems Than They Do Running A Lower Ppm Solution.I Use Snow Storm Ultra As A Foliar Spray And On The Bottle It States That When Using In Res Your Ppm Should Be No Higher Than 1000 And The Dutch Master Nutrient Guide Shows Ppm's No Higher Than 1100.Plus People That Run A Higher Ppm Also Complain About A Chemical Taste.Now My Grow Is My First Hydro Grow But I Can Tell Ya That My Lady Doesnt Have Any Harsh Taste Plus My Stuff Dosent Make Me Cough Like What I Have Bought Plus Mine Taste Better.So I Belive Running Lower Ppms Is Better For Our Plants Plus Its Easier On Our lungs As Well.
Now What Nutes Are You Using.I Know Your Using Heis Tea Solution Damn Good Stuff And I Will Not Run With Out It.Being This Was My First Hydro Grow I Used GH Flora Nova Bloom Only As Per Scottyballz Grow.I Was Trying To Keep It Simple And Will Use It On My Next Grow As Well.Then For My First Photo Plant(Currently Running Autos)I Going To Switch Over To Dutch Master Nutes.Anyway Keep Up The Awsome Gardening.Peace And Do It To Me One More Time.

 

[Quitekeen]

beautiful! I hope mine turns out half as good as this!

 

[JamesBong007]

Thanks keen. Dawg, I'm using "Cutting Edge Solutions" 3-part nutrient line found here: http://www.greners.com/i/nutrients-additives/brand/cutting-edge-solutions.html
Awesome stuff so far. Clean res and basic nutes. Not a lot of complications. I'm also running Budswel which is a mixture of guanos/castings made for hydro. I started using Snow Storm Ultra as a foliar and man...it's worked way more effectively. Love this product so far too. I am going to be adding Botanicare Hydroplex tomorrow and possibly Cannazym.

 

[The Dawg]

Thanks Mr Bong.I Will Keep Cutting Edge In Mind When I Run Out Of Nutes.It Just Might Take Me A Few Years To Use Up The DM Nutes I Bought From A Local Greenhouse/Hydroponic Store That Had A Going Out Of Business Sale.I Caught Him On His Last Day Open And I Bought All He Had.I Bought Over $500.00 Dollars Worth Of Nutes For A Little Over $100.00.I Will Get 1 More Grow Out Of My Flora Nova Bloom Then Im Running DM.Peace And Pussy Tail Grease

Nice grow James! Any updates or final weights?

 

[dougfunnieyo]

I'm looking at getting two progrow 260s, any updates on the journal?

 

[zippywalnut]

What ever happened to this grow? Looks very nice.

 

[newworldicon]

Seriously OCD about my grow stuff. I guess thats good when it comes to pests and shit. I'm assuming cursing is allowed on this forum since it isn't censored? lol

A clean sterile room usually means no problems with pests etc...keep it up and I may employ you some day lol..

 

[Jman305]

Where'd she go?!

 

[Jackrolls1]
