Some of the tape is fiberglass backed reflective stuff, was expensive, i'm using it mainly to keep the light out. and to reflect was a bonus it was about 30 a roll and i went thru two.
it would keep it a bit cooler i guess, still doesnt help that much with temps with the 1000w in there. and the temps we have been copping here.
i bought a thicker roll from a hydro store too, didnt use nearly as much and it was a bit more felxable
no photos as of yet. i had some rusty spots on the leaves.. i am still however thinking this is from the original problem as its on the older bigger leaves and not showing up on newer growth thats formed in the past few days
BTW taping your buckets was super important believe it or not, Ive tested before and after and it makes a huge diff to water temps use tape or a panda wrap.
Heh its hard not to update every day! im always anxious to see what people think , you get a lot of good vibes here!
i hope to make it a little larger one day! this is just a hobby for now! i love the hash i make
Yeah taping up was a good move.. i did it for light/algae reasons, i could have painted them easy but i think reflective/thermal tape was the go.. as i was dealing with heat too. tho i still needed a chiller in the end however.
i went from black buckets with just taped lids. to white buckets fully taped. i think i got around 2-3degree c drop..
Its been a few days, i've done a small amount of trimming to the bottom of the two right ones. the left one is short and squat. clearly very very indica. and i cant get into the bottom of her yet.. i can confirm i think i have 3 girls..
ph is sitting on 5.8 and ppm is on 710 they seem to be loving life!
i'm going to leave them for a few more days then flip.. i've cut back the light to 15 hours and will put it on 12/12 in 3-4 days i would like them to be about double their size now.. but i dont think i will see this happen
will need to get some cuttings in a few days too.
heres the photos.
Two mixed pheons
fatty indica pheno
Well i may have bad news now, i think the short fat one is a boy.. it does however have alternating nodes, but tiny tiny balls are forming, at this point it could go either way.. but i think male for sure since the others look totally different.
I've started using Co2 Enricha product, powdered co2 agent..
Flowering started today,
45L i added 120ml of a+b 120ml of c/zim, 50ml of rhizo, 120ml's of boost
worked out to about 850ppm 5.7ph also. will get some more photos shortly! i've left the boy in there for now untill i work out what to do with him.. i think i will make some seeds, hes nice and short, very branchy and fat, would be a waste not to use him for something but i dont know which to pollenate
i have....
very bushy Power Plant - Dp
plenty of various chronics
not so good white widow - Ghs
4 x mazar sharif's
a "bubble gum"
3 unsex's chimera c4's
a very tall fat white rhino girl. very thicked stemmed and strong (i'm thinking this may be the go)
Hey technique, my GWS was the most predictable out of all my strains, and stretched less then one of the AK 48's. I was totally gutted when my white rhino died.
A little late but I'm here, I've hardly ever seen internode spacing that tight. Those buds are going to be humongous my friend. TAGGED. PEACE LUVE AND BUDS!!!!!!!!!
