Top Fed Drain to Waste Journal (12 OG) Looking GOOOOOD!

wat temp do u have when u feed ur girls?

It waters every 30 minutes or so and the chiller is set 68 but only gets down to 73 (Usually).. The water is always chilled!

N!ps

What? u water every 30 min??

lol, yup! For about 5-10 seconds at a time.. every few days I change the off cycle to about 45 minutes and the on cycle to about 5 seconds till they dry out a bit then go back to 35 mins off/8-10 seconds on... Still new to this system but they are growing like hydro! They are drinking about 110 gallons a week!!!!

The watering schedule will be mastered soon!

N!ps

wooow, do u really have to water them that much? do they need that much during flowering? or u jus like feeding them alot of water?

Its not coming out of the bottoms and if I turn it to 45min on /5-7 sec off, its too little so I have to say they need it! Maybe an hour off and 15 secs on would work... Still working on the perfect schedule!

They are big thick buds! I wanna give them as much as they can drink!!

How much water sould i be feeding my girls?? wat kind of medium do u have in ur pots that the water dont come out the bottom?

Yours are still small, in soil and only under a 1000. I cant imagine them needing water more than every 3-4 days at that stage... Mine are in Perlite, vermiculite and a tad of peat but for some reason they drink like hydro! Don’t get me wrong! It will come out of the bottom if I leave the water on for long enough (20-30 seconds) But I'll wait to flush them before run that much water through them..

Cheers!

ok , i get you. Man dats alot of water! Thanks for the info nipps, ill stay tunned..

Nah, you will have to find those from a chemistry supply house online... I had no problem ordering them and they arrived in days! http://www.boilerandcoolingwater.com/Chemicals_and_Reagents_S_s/698.htm

Happy Growing

Yeah i had a feeling it wasn;t something you could find at your local drug store.. thx for the link! I will be doing some reading... determination is setting in now just to see if i can do it..lol

Hell ya, good luck with your experiments! Doing the sex change is super fun! I flipped a Bag seed Duff man OG and crossed it with Purple Diesel. It turned out GREAT! I'm trying to isolate the better phenotype and gonna back cross it with its self at an attempt to stabilize it... Awesome Fun! Then I'll just need to come up with a name!

Happy Growing!

Thx N!ps... I have some Sensi Seed hite Russian Pollen just sittin in a container that i want to do something with.. I still have some learning to do though because i tried for shits and giggles to put some on the NL#5 i had just done and it didn;t work unfortunately.. so i figure back to the drawing board and in my quest i started seeing stuff on selfing and the feminizing which sparked other interests as well.. I am really wanting to get more into genetics and like you said be able to stabalize the good phenotypes that i might have cross my path. lol yeah i would love to be stuck in that perdiciment of not know what to call a strain i made on my own... that would be rad! lol I think i know enough now to do something or at least enough to get into trouble...lol Thanks for the encouragment brotha!!! I am sure i will have questions once it comes time so i am keeping your info for sure..lol

Sweet you read my journal? thanks man!!! Yeah i was a little dissapointed because of how long you have to wait to see if it worked but over all it was a learning experience none the less... That is another area i will be needing to do some reading on for precise times of pollenating and what not.... So 3-5 weeks you say? What week would you apply the pollen? or is it just 3-5 weeks before it would normally be finished? lol yeah trouble is fun.. seems i learn soething new almost every day or learn more of things i have an idea on... i've learned a ton jsut in the last 2 days from you bro!!! Thx

Hey Nipples your ladies are looking fantastic!! Can't wait for the harvest shots
Also I just started my new Aeroponic journal.. check it out.. I'll be needing as much help as possible since this is my first run attempting anything soil less.
Should be fun!

Just make sure to pollinate 5 weeks before planned harvest date... Indicas will be week 3 or 4 at the latest and i believe sativas can wait till week 5 or 6.. Only done this twice but have read allot on the subject and both my attemts were a success. We are all still learning! Glad I can contribute!!!

Happy Growing!

Thanks my friend! I'll be posting more shots in a day or two! I'm just backed up... I'll check out your journal for sure!!

Only a 3 day jump here but wanted to post because it’s getting good! Every time I go in the room another branch is bent over due to weight!

More supports going up!! Tying up buds is hard work!!

Here is the room at flower day 46

The KOG flower day 46

The HOG at flower day 46

Here is one of the Skywalkers at day 46

Looking good is right!!!! lol The trichs on those things are incredible... What do you think you'll end up harvesting off the 12 plants? do you have a goal you are trying to hit?

I really dont like to count our horses but we are hoping we get 5 lbs so we can last throught the next harvest.. I guess we will see! We really coulda fit 3 more in the room!! Poopsickle!
