Hi all, back again with another post and pics. Sorry I'm a day late, I've been trying to add updates on Sundays . . . Again, comments are welcome on this grow journal. I know I'm fucking up things, let me know what I'm doing wrong! 12/6 overlapping leaves are 'sweating' on the leaves below...

Hi all, I've just set up a flower room for a bucket DWC grow, 5 buckets in total, all connected to a reservoir for easy maintenance. I bought several aquarium heaters, but they're too long to fit into my 3.5 gallon buckets:roll:, so I'm wondering if I can get by without heating the nutrient...

Nov 30: starting to see some branching on a few of the plants. leaves are definitly getting nice and broad. The runt is still easy to pick out, but growing right along with the rest of them. Ph jumps up to 6.0 or just above that every day, 1/8 to 1/4 t of ph down knocks it back down to 5.0 or...

Nov 23: Almost lost the seedlings today! I moved the grow lights up a bit to give the seedlings some growing room, and in doing so set the heating pad's heat sensor on the floor, then spaced out and left it there. I came back at the end of the day to find the grow box at about 100 degrees...

Week 2: Nov 16: Not much obvious growth in the past couple days. I'm hoping they're putting their energy into roots, because they're not doing much in their leaves. I'm hand watering them 3 times a day, as they hydroton doesn't really hold much water. Nov 17: A few plants are sporting tiny...

Ah, week 1 (more or less): 12 seeds were started in a wet napkin. All popped within 4 days and were moved to small rockwool plugs. 10 of the 12 managed to survive and pop up over the rockwool-- I'm counting this as their 1st day, as they're actually looking like little plants at this point...

Hi all, 1st off, I've cheated . . . I'm already over a month into this grow, so I'm starting by retroactively posting my journal for the 1st month. I've grown before, but am no pro. Last grow was 2007, so it's been a while and I'm working with all new equipment, locations, and everything...

Heisenberg, thanks very much for the pointers. I found your thread on breeding beneficial microbes and will give that a go. Perkins, future grows will definitley be mostly clones, except when starting new strains. Just getting started for now and that means from seed this time around...

heee! That's a tiny DWC! What are you using for your bucket? Do you know what strain of weed you got? Good job, keep at it and you'll have bud (if the plant's a girl)-- it's hard to mess up a DWC!

I got a 4 port pump from Petco for around $25. I'm hoping that will be enough to run air to 4 DWC buckets. You could score one of those and a 2 port air pump (costs a little less) and run all 6 of your buckets with only 2 air pumps. I've run 4 plants in a single rubbermaid tub with one of...

awesome, thanks very much for the response. It's great to hear others have gotten away with this. Did you cut down any males or have all females in your 2-per-bucket setup? Last time I did a DWC grow was 4 plants in a 15 gallon rubbermaid tub, and you couldn't pull one plant out without...

Hi everyone, 1st post to RIU:bigjoint:. I've done a few grows a few years ago, but then moved into an apartment and didn't feel safe about growing there. Now I'm back in a house and able to start up again. Previous grows were ebb and flow and DWC hydro grows of 4-6 plants each in large...
