White Berry top fed recirculating journal. NZ

Its been a while since my last confession, & I must confess...

..I did not inhale.

Thought it was about time I logged & shared another journey from start to finish with whoever might stumble in & tag along. Should be fun. Usually lots of lessons & rewards & rewarding lessons hopefully.
Same system I usually run only 10 plants instead of 16, for those that dont follow me. I run a 16 site Nutrifield pro pot (32l) hydroponic system. I set it up to top feed & recirculate to a 200 litre tank. Ive always had the best results & swear by using the Canna Aqua range of nutrients, boosters & substrate. I keep my nutrient levels accurate by following the Canna grow guide on the website, its never put me wrong.

So thats the beginning of the boring part of any full length real time grow journal out the way. If anyone is interested in how some of my previous journals turned out or any friends/followers wanting a recap feel free to check them out here Gorilla Glue thats a tasty one. & this one has tasty nuggets achieved also.
I’ll leave you with those & these for a taste of whats to come

Week 2
1 week in they’ve just settled in & starting to grow now. Taken the first tip off, in 3 or 4 days I’ll take off the first couple of low/original laterals & start training them out from there. Looking to switch them to 12/12 week after next.
Up’d E.C to 1.2

Trimmed/thinned. In a couple of days I’ll start training them out.

Beginning of week 3 veg. Started training them down to open them up.

Start of 3rd week in flower. Looking like they guna be some fattys

Hey bruddah, I came to these forums after seeing your amazing grow journals, i was wondering how you found the nutrafield setup, ive been shopping around trying to figure out a DIY RDWC system and have been finding it hard to find a nice system with the return water feed and reservoir was wondering where you got your complete hydro system from? or did you end up having to re-jig it for the return feed? and also i see your only using the canna products for your neuts have you had any lockout, calcium or algae problems using the canna range? got a million questions to ask man thanks for posting this looking forward to seeing and learn more!

White Berry... as in Paradise Seeds' White Berry? I LOVED that strain. Heavy indica with sexy colas if you get the right pheno. There were a few number of phenos I ran across when I did this strain. I remember this hella pheno... super small compact nugs absolutely covered in resin and terps. Was just stunning.

Sorry for late reply bro just seen you post. I got the Nutrifield pro pot buckets, the matching top feed rings the 19mm & 13mm flexi rubber hose lengths from Hyalite Hydroponics northland. Then I got all the hose fittings from farmsource (used to be called RD1) way cheaper. I got a big pond pump from animates. I had a 200 litre water tank laying around which is only just big enough when running all 16 pots. Ive always used Canna never had any issues but I monitor PH twice a day. My hoses & res are all light proof & I cover the top of the pots so algae isn’t an issue either. Happy to share any knowledge with ya

Yeah not too bad. I did that exact same thing a little while back. Didnt do too bad think I got 3 or 4 lb took a bit longer had to veg longer to try fill the room with less plants. Longer veg meant more roots that became a problem blocking up the returns but manageable if stayed on top of. The 27 litre pots can take huge plants & in theory if the size of your room allows it, you should be able to get at least half, more likely 1gram dried per watt of light whether you have 6 plants or 60 plants. 3600w = 3600 grams in an ideal grow which is 8 & a bit pounds dry!
