Hey guys, i have some questions.... i got 3 plants in a 4x4x7 tent under a 600w air cooled hood, temps range from 60f (night) to 78-81f (day) in the tent, i am trying to limit the damage done to this trailer i am currently living in so i am trying to avoid punching holes into walls. thus my exhaust is actually vented into the heating ducts (hopefully to heat the house since its -29 outside right now)
I snapped a video of my setup, I have GH Flora Grow/Micro/Bloom, with a free sampler of Bud Blood, Big Bud and CarboLoad. I had about 13 clones. 4 of Super Lemon Haze, 4 Kalashnikova and 5 The Doctor all from GHS that never rooted and pretty much suffered a horrible death at my unexperienced hands,example. Thus i have now dropped two seed of SLH, one Seed of Kalashnikova, one seed of CH9 Blue Lemon Thai and one seed of CH9 Green Bud.
I was interested in going with a hydro system in the future for faster growth rate but my perception of hydro is changing. Since you can have a hydro setup in coco coir and just water it like dirt....
I am using Sunshine #4 mixed with about 25-35% more perlite but i never ammended the soil with dolomite lime (which is why my run off PH was 4.8 when i tested it for the first time on the first day of flowering). you can see the inside my tent, i changed the setup to the other side to exhaust into the heat ducting of the house, but you can see what it looks like on the 4th day of flowering
Heres my feeding notes:
Plants are in a 5 gallon grow bag.
Tap water: PH 8.2 @ 250PPM
Flowering day 1.
10gal res
30ml Grow
30ml Micro
30ml Bloom
2 tsp of Bud blood
750PPM @ 6.2 PH for Kalashnikova and The Doctor
640PPM @ 6.6 PH for SLH
Doctor Runoff 2200 ppm @ PH 4.8
Kalashnikova runoff 1850 ppm @ PH 5.1
(I added more tap water to raise PH and lower PPM, SLH seems to be sensitive)
SLH runoff 2100 PPM @ PH 5.2
I let them be even with the PH readings (first time with my meter, not sure if it was accurate, got it from hong kong for 80$)
I PH'd my res water down to 5.65 (This wasn't given to the plants till day 5, just straight water, something to keep the meter wet) after 2 days it was hovering at 6.7PH
Flowering Day 5
Fresh water, PH @ 6.7
Soaked all plants till i got about a gallon of runoff
SLH Runoff 1400PPM @ PH 5.5
Doctor Runoff 1650PPM @ PH 5.6
Kalashnikova runoff 1750PPM @ PH 5.4
Would like to get some suggestions on feeding, perhaps future nutes and or gear... i was thinking of Hygrozyme (or cheaper pond cleaner), Bushdoctor Kangaroots and Microbrew as well as Humic acid. Also thinking of a different medium (like coco coir) to avoid having to dick around with a soil that gives a PH runoff of 4
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, been on grass city for a year or so before i decided this website was closer to overgrow
