so ive decided to start a grow journal for my own records and hopefully to help anyone out there that may be experiencing trouble. i have two rooms, one for veg, mothers and clones, and one for flowering. Ive created a list of the items i use in both rooms.
Strain: Armageddon & two white berry
veg room:
Two 2' flourescent lighting fixtures w/ 2 t5 bulbs in each
one 105 watt cfl
the dual pod dwc system (2 separate res)
one general hydroponics 4 valve air pump
four 8 inch air stones ( 2 in each res)
nutes for this room include:
Gh flora gro
gh flora micro
gh floralicious gro
diamond nector
i started this journal about 3 weeks too late in the veg room so the plants are already growing, i also have a crop in its sixth week of flowering, but more on that later, right now i'll be focusing on the veg room.
(note i always ph my solution to 6.0 to account for fluctuation)
after the roots hit the res water i lower the res level to about a half inch under the net cup, so i can give the roots room to breath, when i start there is approx. 9 to 10 gallons in each res and after i lower to the correct level it then has 6 gallons of water. When the roots hit the water and i lower the level i add 3 tsp of flora gro, this will give them a good jump start without harming them or giving them too much. I then wait a few days to see new growth and any signs of stress, if there is no stress i add 3 tsp of floralicious grow which has all the vitamins and minerals the young plants need. At this point the plants should be moving along nicely and you should be seeing new signs of growth daily. When the water level drops more than an inch below the net cup i refill with 1 gallon of mild nutes ( which is 1 tsp per gallon) of flora gro, micro, and floralicious grow. Then at the end of 2 weeks i change the nutrient solution out with fresh water and nutes, i repeat this every 2 weeks until harvest, it helps keep things clean, prevents lock out, and your plants will thank you also
ok lets fast forward a bit, yesterday was the begininng of week 4 in the veg room, last week when i changed the res i added 3 tsp of flora gro, 3 tsp micro, and 3 tsp floralicious grow, i am using less because the plants are young and do not need a whole lot of nutes right now and when i refill through the week i am adding a mild solution to the res so they are constantly getting fresh water and nutes. I dont really keep track of (ppm) until they get into the flowering room because levels are so low they are not harmful to plants, and if your wondering about defficiencies floralicious grow or plus is great for solving those problems because of all the vitamins and minerals in that stuff, its just great for plants.
I will be updating this thread as much as possible so if you have questions or concerns feel free to ask or state your opinion. And last but not least the pics.................................................................................
