Aiming 400g 3x3 Runtz Muffin in hydroponics. I have poor sight

Here I find myself once again at rollitup..oh well, why not to share a new small project I recently started.

Sorry for bringing this about as these are already one month old from seed, so lacking pictures.

Girls are now topped once and controlled sideways by bending and supercropping. I broke three main tops from other plant, being careless. They just got into their final tent and are gonna preflower in a couple weeks.

Using a cheap 400W led with infrared though it outputs 1100PPFD which would be suitable for extra CO2. Might get a small bag later... Humidifier also.
Plus there is a blooming panel with low caloric value as an under-canopy light.

Nutrients being used this time are Terra Aquatica Tripart, Flash clean and fulvic acid mix. The plants just got their full dose of nutrients, the water is freshly exchanged. I have some Remo leftovers, gonna use them at blooming phase towards end-sycle of the water reservoir since the Remo- series wont last efficient more than 8 days in bubbler.

Here a couple pics from today.



Now it's time to toke some Cream Cookies and chill with freshly tuned stereos. Today, Steven Wilson and Portugal. The Man

I'm gonna be updating this at least weekly so I will be gladly surprised if you join me in this mineral hell of a grow!

A bit more info would be in place...
The buckets are 20L/15L, airpump outputs 2x200L/min, big 15cm airstones.

I'm using the net to help spreading, and supercropping the strongest upper branches for hormonal reasons. When supercropping the stems will hold their weight, even with crazy yields - I'm going to remove the net permanently by second week of flowering. This way there will be an even canopy, will avoid the mess of binding wires and I'm able to easily transfer the plants out for maintenance.

Missing a secondary fan and some other climate related stuff, gonna get them next month. A thermometer wouldn't hurt ya know...

Last couple of yields have gone awry(at least got something), mostly because of humidity accumulation. Well, finally that is sorted from the way and I can put some real effort in this one!

I don't know what is it with bubbler, I'm simply not willing to grow in any other media. Can anyone recommend something as easy?? Really??

Plants are looking really good. Love the under canopy light. A researcher for Fluence released a video on YouTube recently with results of their research in under canopy lighting.

Re 1100 - I've grown at 1000-1100 (measured daily using an Apogee) and my experience echoes what Dr Hawley, the researcher at Fluence, discusses. Things go pretty well < 1100 but I've run into issues going higher.

Re. CO2 bag - unless you're in a sealed environment, the air flow through your tent should be such that whatever the CO2 bag emits is immediately removed from the tent.

With the setup that you've got, the equipment is in place to significantly exceed 400gm/sq meter.

Thanks for the input. I haven't decided yet with the bag though it costs only some 15€ for 3-4 weeks. The tent is in my living room where I also sleep so maybe enough CO2 from me.. There's no active air conditioning but a gravity assisted air ventilation in this building - so the CO2 would linger some period in the room, yes?
