[BigL420]

Yo DaC dont over water it them like I did my last two but you do want to keep them moist and warm

 

[bikeskill]

i had my sprouts in RW in ebb&flo system and flooded them every 6 hours and they were fine, just don't let them get bone dry or stay soaking wet to long

 

[DaCDaC]

Ya ive just mainly been winging it! doing finger test. If I had to guess it would be about 1/2 cup water/day

The babies are looking great,just wanted to update!

JB!! YAY your alive!!!! lol!

Its ok I understand the wify thing, mine doesint like RIU either. My main defence is "I could be out doing far worse things" lol! It works for the most part..ha

and thanks you I impressed myself with this setup! I didint think we had it in us!

Sprouts are 3 days old? im keeping them on 24/0 until their first leaves form. then Ill stick them in the buckets with full strength nutes. It shouldint nute burn I dont think. lol!


Thanks you for stopping by JB, I understand that you get on when you can! : )

how we doin man any progress?

 

[bikeskill]

I wouldn't put them in with full strenget nutes, you will kill them!!!!! do you have a ppm meter and a ph meter? you have to increase the strength over a couple weeks untill you get to full strength or they will die. and you have to give them plain water for the first week and a half to two weeks

 

[DaCDaC]

Oh well no biggy! Ill just leave them in the germ box for a week and just give them pure H2O, Then week #2 ill start feeding 1/4 nutes in germ box. Their just in RW cubes sitting on plastic now.

Then at the start of week #3 ill put them in the bubbleponic system and go with full strength nutes, Whatcha think?

[JonnyBtreed]

work the nutes up. 1/4 strength one week 1/2 the next then full nutes.

dac just do 1/4 for like first weeks than go full if you wanna do it so early

 

[bikeskill]

I think you should put them in the bubble system now. And do what jonnybtreed said.

 

[DaCDaC]

Ya I did some reading last night and realised that I was doing this whole thing wrong.

Me and DLC went out last night and spraypainted all the buckets and got the airstones soaking in pH balenced water.

The sprouts have been alive for like 5 days now,so Im going to go ahead and put them on 1/4 nutes in the bubbleponics system.
Ill keep them on 1/4 until the start of week #3 then ill switch to 1/2 nutes.
At the start of week #4 Ill start full nutes. and keep on full nutes until the last three days before harvest.

Thank you all for bringing my mistake to my attention and I will be correcting it today! I will be force to clip the current bagseed grow im doing now before she has even formed buds. But its either save one bagseed girl or save 4 White Rhino Girls.... The choice is simple.


Me and DLC will be constucting a new lighting fixtures in the box also to accomidate the 3 extra plants.

Again I Thank yall for lighting a Fire under my ass and making me see That I was about to kill them!
Ill be doing alot of work today and posting what all I got though at the end of the day!

P.s. Sorry about the book! LOL!

lol id save the rhino before i saved that bagseed, although it is our first grow .... gonna be hard to cut her down! but it needs to be done

and yeah! its a wonder we didnt get caught by the five-O painting those buckets in the middle of the night lol!

 

["SICC"]

you guys have no where to put the ladies?

and you stated full nutes until the lest three days of harvest, you should give your plants a 2 week flush period

it doesnt take as long for hydro but i agree it should be longer..
Im thinking like a week at least!!!
Just put the bagseed in the woods somewere if you cant do it in your backyard
Try to find anywere to put her, you dont wana pointlessly kill a healthy plant,
peace

 

["SICC"]

oh aight, i never knew that, i grew in hydro and thought it was a 2 week standard to any medium.

 

[DLC420]
