Biscotti & Gorilla Zkittlez, DWC

Hi everyone!

On this occasion I have some new strains from Barney's Farm I haven't grown yet. Expecting lots from the Biscotti!



Setup

Tents:
80*80cm veg tent (convective air circulation)

90*90cm blooming tent with 220m²/h exhaust


Lights:
Veg, 100W Viparspectra P1000

Flowering, 400W Lumen King (80*80cm), driven maximum of 320W/ 1100PPFD at 20cm distance

+Under canopy bloom 26W


Nutrients:
Terra aquatica Flora + Fulvic, maybe Rhino skin later

Bubblers:
Air pumps 2* ~400L/h
4*15cm flat airstones

20/15L buckets




A couple days have gone since I put the seeds to germinate. Biscotti opened well and was put to DWC within a root-it cube, nutrients 5-5-5. Gorilla seed was really dark and didn't pop properly,just a small beginning of a tail so I can't even file it open. Decided to put it in soil and give it away if it germinates later. Too bad, I only have three of these Gorilla Zkittlez.

The season Here in Finland is quite good for growing now although there might be some humidity issues later at fall. Vegging tent is in bathroom, no issues there but a slightly higher temperature of the reservoir. The flowering tent is in the living room where I sleep, lots of CO2 and a good circulation of fresh air too. I'm so lucky to have an apartment to the west in the middle of the building, stays really cool. Yesterday it was 34c at 16:00 outside, but my flat had only 24c!

Feel welcome to join! Happy growing people!

Gorilla Z germinated and planted. A minor error happened...I put the new seed to the same wet paper to germinate and it got a bit slimy. So... I broke one of the leaves while taking off the helmet but I think it will be okay anyways.
These will have 6-7 weeks time to veg in the smaller tent since the flowering tent is in use until harvest and drying of the runtz muffins is done. Tent is in bathroom where ambient temp is a tidy bit high, about 26c. Gotta exchange water more frequently and also wash the buckets thoroughly every three weeks. Recent grows have had healthy root systems, excluding one plant with poor genetics and a broken airpump.

...Damn, Gorilla Zkittlez has a real struggle. Now it hadn't pushed it's taproot into the root-it cube well enough and some of the root was exposed to light. It withered a little thin and lost all its hair. I covered it with pebbles to protect the bare root and started giving kelp spray for first aid. Following days will show if the damage was too much, but at this point I'm still optimistic. Only one seed left of the gorilla... Biscotti doing fine, slow but steady. Need a fan there ASAP
