OH YEAH!!! I would never NEVER EVER take a plant from outdoor to indoor. I was thinking an indoor soil plant. There are so many bugs and plant diseases out there, if anything you keep it by itself for 2 weeks and if you don't notice bugs then move it into the indoor garden. Just got an email saying my beans will be here in 3 days. AWESOME. Building my cab too. Hope it's finished by the time the beans pop.

It can be done dude if you use Co2 I wouldnt do it but you can kill all pests in a sealed environment by blasting your co2 up to 10,000 PPM it will kill all pests and bugs.

It is White Russian. I guess they wanted to stand out or something. It was a freebie, but I'm glad I'm getting it....White Russian is killer smoke. Not the kind of stuff I can take to work. HA.

It was an indoor soil plant. Not an outdoor plant. I didn't even take it outside because the risk of bugs.
It looks fine and healthy. No worries
I was just saying I seen a grow where somebody did that.
That gives ya a week to get the cab built. You got it..

I have seen some good results from the DM Zone. I have never used it but have seen some amazing roots by others using it.

Nice setup you have there Ray.

@ rays the only prob with taking plants from soil to water that i can see is the root structure,they will take but will be stunted for abit till the roots adjust to there new enviroment,
roots in soil you can see are very fury looking they grew this way to break down an absord air from the soil where as water roots the hairs are much further apart an they do not have too break down there nutrients there readily available for the uptake,
as said they will grow but will take some time like did yours once you switch start yellowing at the bottom fan leaves reason being they could not uptake nutrients due to the root structure differance so was taking stored nutrients within itself,
you could foilar feed for abit to help combat this though also they might wilt or show other symptons like overwatering etc,but still glad it all worked out ok an the only other prob that could occur as some one said is bacteria in these systems like dwc rdwc they will breed an colonise your root structure like wildfire an once you get slime it is very very hard to erradicate,
most composts multipurpose have some bacteria or fungus nats an other nasties your coco may have been sterile so no bugs transferred to your water culture system these are my opinions anyway as said glad to see it works out ok i just dont like it this way i prefer to start straight away in sterile system an kis,
cannot wait for this thread to proper get underway its gonna be a goodden good job on starting it blu

I did notice yellowing of the bottom leaves. My current DWC grow was started in soil and I just threw the pot into the water and let the roots grow out of the soil at the bottom of the drainage holes. Didn't really notice any problems except spider mites. Damn it! Just reminded myself.

But I won't be using soil anymore, I have a new setup and a cooler cloner is apart of that.

Hey there NTD! I'm ready for it to get underway as well. I think alot of people are in flowering now and may have just missed out on the start of this thread.
I'm in flower as well, but I'm getting ready to chop in a week and then move I'll these babies into their new home.
I had my clone in soil ONLY because I wasn't gonna run another grow right away and was gonna keep the clone to pull more clones off of her when I got ready to grow again. Then I said fukkit and transferred to DWC and sprouted some seeds. And ready for a Throwdown/Growdown!!
I'll have some newer pics in a day or so.
As far as moving one from outside in the ground to inside. Nope, I don't suggest it to anyone.
They grow different root systems.

I'm at harvest right now. But as soon as my beans come in, I'll be blowing this thread up. I also need to finish flowering in order to move from the closet to the cabinet. I think this thread will get as HUGE as some tasty dank nugs in the coming weeks. Just like our plants...give it time, it'll pay off.

Throwndown, as in you want everyone to start at the same time? or no? If not, thats good...cause I'm still buiding my new stealth cabinet :)

It really doesnt matter if everybody starts at the same time or not. It is more less for fun. But I would like to see some competition.
I more less wanted to see a couple grows with the same method and the same veg time (4 weeks)
as well as different nutrients to see the different results people get.
Gram per watts and girth/bud size/yield/frostiest. Winner of the Throwdown will recieve $1,000,000
Just kidding no money or prize. But you will have plants and the experience that is worth that much to you

View attachment 1600207View attachment 1600208View attachment 1600206

Basic DWC at this point. TechnaFlora nutez. Feminized mystery strains. 400W HPS in a DIY cabinet. I'm not really looking to impress anyone per say, but I for sure wanna learn more about this method along with its pros/cons. These 3 ladiez are on Day 6 of Flower and the screen was just put over them. They JUST started their 3-week stretch or w/e so with any luck they'll fill in nicely;)

Plants look good Minz! You def have the right idea.

NTD I got my Extrema seeds from Sannies Seeds. I purchased the Extrema and he sent me free El Monstre seeds. Which is what I have flowering now.

Woodsman, of course you count. That is if you have some pics to throw up for the throwdown. Lol
