Thanks
I have a 600w hps with a digi balast. Using fox farm soil/nutes.

No monkey, but definitely a jungle. I waited just a little too long to flower, these BC streched from 14-18" up to 40-48". A little more then I was expecting

My BC form Barney's were duds so I'm envious. Some strains do strech 2-3x there veg height. Next time you'll know. My LSD went from 10-11" to 26" in about 2 1/2 weeks.

I measured my biggest one this morning....Pretty much 4ft on the dot with side branches that are even taller! I just wonder why mine seem to be flowering so slow...They are starting to get nice and smelly tho

Sometimes a batch will get a slightly more sativa based set of genes then a different batch of seeds. So yours may take a week longer then some others, but just be patient. Your plants are looking great.

Thanks man! Trust me i'm in no rush at all....I'll probably have to harvest at different times since this big one is hogging all the light...I think the smaller and lower parts will get an extra week or two....I just have never done it in hydro should I start flushing two weeks before the first batch I harvast or like a week before? just curious I like to plan ahead
I also had to move the light up higher since they bushed out so much also....It's hard to cover the area with a 400w

I think this strain gets just a little to big for a 6 plant bubbleponics setup....I have four going and it's just a big mess~! Next time definitely sticking with something a little more compact

I think compact is the way to go for personal grow. What strain will you go for next time?I think this strain gets just a little to big for a 6 plant bubbleponics setup....I have four going and it's just a big mess~! Next time definitely sticking with something a little more compact

I'm looking at a few right now....It's between white berry, chemdog, crimea blue, or aurora....There may be a few others i'm looking at that I can't remember off the top of my head....I think most of those should be good for a small dwc/bubbleponics setupI think compact is the way to go for personal grow. What strain will you go for next time?

I would say flush about a week before you harvest your first plant so the others get about 2 weeks. But, on the other hand, I've seen people run just water for 3 weeks in hydro and the plants were still fine (I have no personal hydro experience though). They just yellowed a little more. So in the end, it is really your choice.

I flush the last res change but since it's water only it's then variable as to when I cut by a few days. Get busy on the planned day I can then push it a bit. 1 week at least.
