I want to fine tune my dwc aero bucket to its fullest. Does anyone know what the best pump cycle might be? Right now I have it going for 15 minutes, then dry period 45 minutes. Thanks!

looking sweet m8 wat id do 4 sum of that right now, especially since i jus paid 25 gbp for 3.5 g of standard shite. well done m8:)

they havent really had much food m8, i over fed at first with formulex plant start, fcking shit dont do wat it says on tin lol. (wont use again). i dont usually feed for first 2 weeks bt thought id give it a go this time,,, luckilyu thgey were in small pots and a gd flush through sorted em out... they then didnt recieve owt for nxt 2 weeks ( 2-3 waterings) they then had 1/4 feed grow... before flowering 1 week later,, since flower they have had 2 1/4 strength feeds of bloom, and 1 jus water. my ph down does have nitrogen in it though?
temps right at the beginning were wildly fluctuating due to grw location and freezing temps, from 15.c to 35.c , this was for 1 week then temps stabilised,, inow run at 19- 20 at night and 27- 30 in day. with a cf extracting every 2 hrs for 15 mins. I checked my run off again and, ph 6.2 one of my girls has the ol yellow tip syndrome? burn i always thought, but bottom 3 sets o leaves are all yellow(uniformally) nitrogen def yes? lol its a fcking riddle,, still grw this bitch out and its dwc all the way.....
i though the bublles stayed on all the time m8, am i wrong there, or are u referring to ya little experiment wit aero?

Hmmmm...Ok.. Well, in that case, it might of been the temp fluctuations... So, many possibilities. Ever thought about Fox Farm nutes bro? Its good stuff. And really not expensive If your only growing a small crop. Id look into it If i were you.. And yes, what I was talking about was my Aero Bucket. Wanted to know how long I could keep my roots out of the solution/nutes. Because, if you let your roots get lots of oxygen, they will grow faster. The bubbles stay on 24/7, but the spray action is supposed to be intermittent. Ok, Just got back home, Gonna roll a joint. What are you up to? If you were nearby Id give u a sack. Peace, CG :)

I always veg with my fans on a high setting, oscillating fan of course. My girls dancing in the wind. What a sight to see. They lay around all day, consume only the best food, and get tanned under the best light possible. As if there in Tahiti. Spoiled brats. The branches and stems are getting nice and thick and strong. Big branches always give me top notch cola's. Bodybuilder plants for sure. :) They are growing much faster then I ever expected. Even the plants in soil are doing there best to keep up with the hydro's.. I doubt they can, or will. Can you believe I will be vegging these girls out for another 2 weeks??? These Glass Slipper Plants are gonna be freakin' HUGE!!! I have the room, what the heck!, might as well use it up, ya know. :weed:

Thanks man. Shit its too funny you brought up the tanning thing. I have actually got a good tan from my grow lights..pretty much all year round. My friends ask me why im so tanned!!! LOL!

Well, once again.. I tell alot of peeps, check out ebay, they will deliver it to your front door. Foxfarms has basically 3 nutes you will need. Grow Big, Big bloom, and tiger bloom. Those are the necessary nutes for a good grow. Like 45 dollars american to last you quite a while(Unless your like me). The others are additives, and yes, they do help. I see what your saying. Whats nice About fox farms is that cool feeding schedule. Its basically fool proof, and its proven to work as long as you follow the week to week dosages.


Your growing out Northern Lights.. sweeeet. I found a vendor who is sending me some Northern Lights #5. Love that strain..very low odor, and good ass shit. Ok, you have the best day possible. Chat l8tr! :)

Wondered what happened to ya Bro :)

Glad to see ya peekin' in on the Ladies :) Got done with feeding all the girls, and the res changes. Probably took me a 1/2 hour to get the job done(flowering room only). Wasnt too bad. One of my plants grew roots over the air line to the Stone. I had to untangle the mess..lol! They girls been drinking about 2 gallons of water each week, and I think they have been eating and drinking in a normal way. I have topped em off with plain water, and all's well. I have a bit of a problem. There getting too big, seriously. They all average about 18" in heighth right now, But, they are way too bushy. I have the light raised to encourage some heighth. Never thought id have a problem like this! LOL! Next time I will grow out only 5 of them with the light mover running(6 foot track)as usual. Im sure My yield will be incredible this round. I got 29 oz's out of the last soil grow, and very happy about it. But, I was growing 17... So, its not unbelievable. I like the idea of a bigger reservoir like what your doing. It may help out, or it may not. I kind of like the independant 1 plant one Bucket gig too. I dunno. Anyways, I shot a few pics .. check em out. Have a good day, and chat soon. Your virtual buddy, CG :) :weed::o

Hey Closetgrowth great lookin plants man. I started my plants in soil at the beginning of December and after two weeks they had barely grown at all. After some research I decided to try a DIY DWC bubbler. I washed off the soil, transplanted into net pots holy shit did they grow! They are now almost seven weeks old. All the seeds were bag seed that I had collected over the last couple years. I ended up with 8 small indicas and 9 sativas. The sativas are almost 5' tall and probably would have been twice as tall if I had not topped them multiple times due to limited ceiling height.

Anyways, my point is....I couldnt agree with you more. DWC rocks! The results are amazing.

One question for ya. How long does it take for you light mover to go from one end to the other and back? Can you adjust the cycle frequency?

Hey Lo :)

Thanks for checking out the grow :)

Yes, dwc ROCKS! Iam sold. First time for me. Ive been growing in soil too long..LOL! Sounds like you did the best thing. I tried Hydro about 7 years ago, and failed. Didnt know what the fuck I was doing. I was so frustrated I went back to soil. I realize now what I did wrong, and dialed her in. Yes, I have a 6 foot mover, and you can give it up to a one minute delay at each end. It takes maybe a minute to go across the track. I couldn't grow without it. A very useful tool, even if you dont actually need it(plant count). Personally, I think its a must. Plants need light at all angles, and thats exactly what a light mover will do for you. I have a 1000 watt eye hortilux hps hooked up to it, and it radiates real well. My plants in DWC are getting a little out of control. Growing too quick, like yours heeheehee. Isnt it funny? what a problem eh? The soil plants are ok, but the dwc are like 3 times the size. Hahaha! Glad you could stop by. You all come back now..hear? Have a nice day, CG :)

Couple plants are nearing the 20" mark, week and a half to go before 12/12. Lots of Cola Sites :) I can raise the light to about 6 feet if needed. So, Its all good! :hump: Wouldn't it be cool if they turned out bigger than my avatar image. I believe they will.
 
Hey Closet, I have to give you serious props for those plants. They are beautiful green, some of the healthiest I've seen. Just curious, are you playing music for them? I read an article recently talking about the various studies with how plants thrive with a very specific melody. I thought I saw speakers in your room...

Very nice...
