So I decided to stop being dumb and make a real grow log, titled correctly. This is my first grow so any input would be great.![Abduct :abduct: :abduct:](/data/assets/smilies/abduct.gif)
Lighting/Venting
1000w HPS w/reflector and 6in flanges, 650cfm fan drawing hot air through the reflector to an outside 6in dryer vent causing negative pressure bringing fresh air in through a 6x12 vent. 24hr lighting for veg. Wall are lined with reflective material for stronger side lighting.
System
50 gallon rubbermaid DWC w/6 8in net pot using slica rock as a grow medium,(supposedly this stuff is good), 2 fusion 700 air pumps feeding 3 12in sand airstones and 1 3ft airdiffusing tube, fish tank heater set to 65, rio 1400 water pump w/bag for circulation,rez temp thermometer.
Nutes
FloraNova grow for veg and mad farmer ph up and down(mostly down
)
Also have FN Bloom. I dont plan on using any other nutes really.
Testers
Hanna primo PPM tester blue, and the hanna ph tester red one, both work perfectly and were under 35 bucks each.![Laghing :laughing: :laughing:](/data/assets/smilies/laughing.gif)
Training Method
For this I made the Octo Scrog
I did this so I could spin the whole system making training easy, but I found out its way too heavy to turn. Ohh well...
I started this grow with tap water huge mistake, my water is is super hard 547 pmm and 8+ ph I mixed in FNG to 450 ppm not knowing about hard water and after 2 days my clones did look great so I bought the testers and found out my ppm was at 1050 pmm and ph at 7.5, I had signs of nute burn and ph spots. I changed out the rez with RO asap and got the pmm to 489 and ph to 5.76 now my ppm has gone up to 548 and and ph is a daily battle
of adding ph down. 4 of the 6 clones have roots in the water and are now showing signs of improvent but still yellow leafs and all have grown between 2 1/8in and 4 1/2in. Any advice or input about what I have going on would be awesome.
Heres some pics and tomorrow ill post some roots pics. I plan to add co2 durring flowering.
