Hi guys n gals , thanx for the interest in my journal. It's been a challenge getting to where I'm at due to ph constantly rising to above 7.3 within a matter of hours after resetting it.
I've came to the conclusion that it's the clay pebbles bcoz the reservoir nutrient solution doesn't rise at all if it's not run thru the pots. Even ph ing the pebbles still doesn't stop the rise either.
There's nothing wrong with the plants as I've kept on top of the problem by hand feeding untill 2wks ago when I changed to the drippers that only let 2ltr per he thru and the ph has since been stable with the odd rise up to 6.3
Today 5th December
My jack herer are now 5wks into flower under the 250w hps and are doing extremely well for the lack of lumens but thanx to EBay lol "tomorrow" I'm adding the 600w hps I got this afternoon.
The small jack has done well so far considering that it was barely rooted after being cloned when I added it to the system , I know it won't yield loads but nun the less I'm still impressed.
The bigger 3 are gona explode once I add the 600w , and yeah sum might say there not at what they shud be but plz bare in mind ppl it's only a 250w I'm using lol. Pics will follow this post of the small plant and the 2nd smallest ,, big diff in size and shape.
