This has been a great start. The plants look great. Nice and tight. I cant wait to see how they react to the feeding! I read everything and I will keep up with this one. Very nice work. I also like the side projects with the smaller pots. Thanks for taking all the time to put this together.

I think the tubes on the ends of the droppers is awesome. I have problems trying to tip my nute container and fill the dropper. I will do that right away!

They are cool tubes by Silverstar, I think there is only one source in the south.

i pay a little over 140.00 if you need to save a few dollars i can set up adiscount for you. but for your saftey i suggest yo order direct or inquire about them locally

thay have the classic silver star dimple and amazing foot print for 6 inch cylinder. these refelctors eliminate hotspots and maximze your lumens even on the far end of the trays.

first feeding, i need ph 6.8 - 7.1



this will give a wide range of available nutes. Let me show you my first feeding contents,


You know the water is pure.... i have 3 older 2.5 gallon containers, all filled with 2.1 gallons about 9 liters.



my water is RO, i stripped EVERYTHING out. i will add sweet for Calcium and Magnesium



i am adding the sweet @ 10 ml gallon. i take the hose off after drawing up to
make sure the amount is accurate

So what do you trust? the drops, what i will show you over this grow that even with 2 pens calibrated every 3 days will read way off actual PH

Now to water, i need to apply without risk of damaging leaves, i use a pump sprayer with the end removed, Slow even watering ensures full saturation.

The most important thing this does is give you time to look at each one closely for a few minutes

Some of these are starting to show sex so the heard will likely start thining. I will start to take clones of plants showing female traits. some of these need to go 12/12 fast!

they will double in size in 4days if they dont react poorly to the to the Imidacloprid

another update in about 18 hours.

Any questings just ask

make sure you remove the tube after using and dont go from container to contsiner with them. or different foods...


NO PH chemicals in these either food products only

i dont know that why i will do all 3 everytime, when i trust the pens only i tend to get yellow, the 2 different foods planned will isolate problem exactly.
when i use high ppm 1300+ the color is very merky, the finished color is my guide still.
