    Outdoor DWC!!

    This is my first time running flower in DWC, so if you wanna learn from my mistakes, just keep track of this thread! Haha. I hope you're using a beneficial bacteria product in your rez, the plants go ape-shit with that stuff! Yea, the clones grew from 5 inches to 5 feet in roughly 30...

    Outdoor DWC!!

    Ty! So far, so good, but we will see if i can make it to the end of flower without any major issues. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    Outdoor DWC!!

    So, just to update you guys, i went balls-deep with my idea. I decided to move these two plants into a 10 site RDWC with 8 new clones. I dug a big trench and buried the entire system to keep it cool. It's kept the temps at roughly 68 during the day and about 65 at night. It's been perfect temps...

    Starting to flower? Or...?

    It had occurred to me that this also might due to temp swings at night, but given that i don't have much outdoor experience, i'm unsure. Still hoping someone might be able to provide some wisdom here.

    Starting to flower? Or...?

    I snapped some pics of my outdoor ladies, hoping someone can tell me whats goin on with these new leaves. For the past two weeks or so, they've been growing very purplish/pink leaves at the very center of each bud area, but no signs of buds yet. Maybe some sort of deficiency? Or starting to...

    force early flower?

    So I'm trying to force an early flower with two plants that I just moved outdoor by giving them bloom nutrients. Will that be enough? Or will they let the sun dictate when they flower? They're both in dwc buckets, if that makes any difference...

    Outdoor DWC!!

    These two ladies are Critical Kush. Let's see how they like the NW summer :) It's worth noting that i topped these once, so there should be a couple of main colas on each (if they survive). I'll try to update pretty often, but I have no idea what'll happen with these, so we'll see. Keeping my...

    Outdoor DWC!!

    Right on, tyvm. I guess ill leave it and see how they do until I have an issue. Ill keep posting pic updates every week or so if you wanna see the results. They arent big at all, but I already started giving them flowering nutes, so I can harvest them at the beginning of sept.

    Outdoor DWC!!

    Yea, its a decent idea in theory, but I don't think the low temp is good for the plant. I am pretty sure ar 65 deg, the plant is locked out of certain nutrients. Hoping someone with some wisdom on the subject can correct me if I'm wrong...

    Outdoor DWC!!

    So, i had a few plants that i started under a T-5 and veg'd for about a month. I had the feeling they weren't gonna be huge producers, so i decided they'd be the perfect plants for an outdoor DWC experiment. I don't plan on using a chiller, so i buried the buckets to keep them cool. Only 3...

    Too Much Negative Pressure...

    wow, very nice! those ladies are so dark green and healthy looking. What strain? Also, i'm surprised you haven't done SOG with this one. It's so bushy! What are you expecting the yield to be like?

    Right on, tyvm for all of your input, Jonda. You've been more than helpful.

    Too Much Negative Pressure...

    Ok, i can definitely make my exhaust point in that other corner, no problem. Now, how big do i need to make these passive intakes to keep up?

    Too Much Negative Pressure...

    i'm not trying to be comabtive about it, 1500cfm just seemed like overkill to me based on EVERYTHING i had read before. I see now he was saying without vented lights, i'd need a 1500cfm fan, which makes a ton more sense. Now i'm trying to figure out where i should pull more air from. After...

    Too Much Negative Pressure...

    So, when i was planning out how to design the venting for my room, i used this page http://www.weedguru.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26677 Seems to be roughly the same calculations, but the important difference is this page says you want an exhaust fan that can clear your room at least once every...

    Too Much Negative Pressure...

    Also, what kind of speed controller would work with my max fan? I keep reading that you have to buy their $200 controller bc the cheaper ones will burn up the fan... And ty Thor! Those are some Critical Kush that I grew from seed. They definitely grow like an indica. I had never grown dwc...

    Too Much Negative Pressure...

    Ok, theyre 8.5ft ceilings, so roughly 1,020 cubic feet. I have an intake fan, buts its some wimpy home depot 6" inline fan. Rated for 250cfm, but theres no way. The outgoing cfm is 675cfm on the 8" MaxFan. The issue is that I think I'm not using the full capability of this exhaust fan. My room...

    Too Much Negative Pressure...

    So, after i just installed my 8" exhaust fan, turns out my 6" intake can't keep up...not even close. I'm thinking my intake needs to get stepped up a bit, but i'm a little hesitant to cut any bigger holes, given that it's cold here 8 months out of the year. Any wisdom on this subject from...
