Hey NR :wave:

Those plants are looking beautiful mate, suprised how small the coco plants stayed though... I can smell it from here!!

:gday:

They look good,you're right.This RDWC setup works great,for sure better then a single big bucket where the roots are all together ;)

Hi noreason :)

Today I discovered this thread, very nice setup I keep fingers crossed. About grapefruit from female seeds I can tell you its such a awesome plant. I grow it several times, very stable and bushy :) Grapefruit smell and nice sativa effect. Try ICED Grapefruit from female seeds also very good a little bit stronger.

Keep it green bro!
Peace
pad:wave:

Nice to see you here Pad.I still have some of your gears,just wait the right moment to sprout'em ;)
One of my grower friend talked very well about the grape and I decided to try it.At now I took only a couple of clones from the faster one that looks better with less stretch,but maybe I have to keep a mom from the other grape too,don't I?
Hope to find a good mom in one of the grape however.
:wave:

How did I miss this grow?

I'm in!

Waiting to see how that grapefruit turns out. I've heard some really good thing on that lineage.

Hi my friend :wave: Will see what these bitches can do.Hope to see fatty buds :D hope to keep everything sealed with extra co2...but temps are raising....and you know better than me what this means ;) but at now the grapefruits seems to react very well

wow che spettacolo, promettono proprio bene le bimbe!
ottimo lavoro nore! :good:

Grazie fratello :) Speriamo che vada a buon fine questo ciclo.L'estate è nemica di noi growers nello stivale....

Hello all good people,news from the grow room tonight along with some shots

Parameters :

Air temp : 23 - 26,5°
Water temp : 20 - 23,5°
RH : 65 - 75%
Ec : 1,1 - 1,2
pH : 5.4 -5.6
co2: 450 - 1300 ppm

The plants overgrow the room men! they are huge and stretched a lot!I'm pretty sure I have 3 sativas phenos out of 4.
800 w for all that green is really not enough,but I can't add more lights for this run.

This is the slower of the group.Few pistils,no thrics and no smell.

Grapefruit #1

This plant si huge! Its branches go everywhere. I think it's the most sativa of all, look at those forming buds and its slim branches.They remember me stuff like african sativas.It's continuing to stretch and I need to crop every day.Really huge plant.
No visible thrics and an undefinable scent

Grapefruit #2

This plant is a little faster than the others as you can see.Thricomes are already visible in small quantities but the smell is undefinable.

This genetic from female seeds carry in it a funny thing.Flowers are appearing on the leaves,where all the blade starts.If you look better you can see one or two....I already saw stuff like this but in this genetic it's a pronounced trait.

Only this shot because c99 it's trapped in the middle :D

I like this little chemDD.Not much light it's reaching this plant...but it's a beauty the same ;)

Cloning stuff

I took at least a clone of every plant but the most sativa Grapefruit (#1)....I hope it will be not a superduperkillerpot :D

Your grow definitely rocks ;) Really healty and vigorous plants i see...

but those sativa leaning gals are at day 28 and have yet so few buds? if they continue with this speed of flowering they will need 13-14 weeks at least (damn)... I hope that will come out dank, the long wait deserves some killer stuff ;)

And the Chem? Is she the last putted in the room? With how many days' difference? She looks to be faster than the others, and those tiny trichs on the leaves are really promising ;) Any nanners on that girl? Be careful especially on the lower buds, she's extremely sensible to the stresses :)

Hey brotha :wave:
I think all the plants in rdwc are a bit sativa dominant but I think also that plants in rdwc start to flower a little after the ones in soil.
Why? I exactly don't know but I think is something related to fertilizers.So I think,generally, some days delay are regular,but these bitches are slow.
If they will need 3 months and more....the only real problem is the heat.In august I'm pretty sure I can't keep the room sealed because we will arrive at 30°C and more in the shade :D but it's just to create an air re-circulation in the case.

Your little chemDD has 2 week less than the others I think...it vegetated only one week and it's already forming flowers,much more than others.Yeah it's promising good :) I'll keep a closer eye to nanners ;)

Amazing work, Mastercraft...

Looking good in there bro, G'Luck!k+

:tiphat: thank you friends

NR, nice looking ladies.

I wanted to ask you about your nutes especially the BcuZZ Hydro. What is that stuff what is it supposed to do. I really like Bcuzz products and use their bloom and grow in my mixes.

I also use a GH three party which is probably very similar to the 3 part you have.

My mix is 3part, Bcuzz (grow or bloom depending), Diamond Nectar, and Clearex or Carboload.

I've never had any problems with Carboload or Clearex, both of these sugar products work great in my mixes and the sugar is really beneficial in crystal production.

Did you find out what caused your solution to re-solidify?

super crop in the jungle!!!

Nice to see you here rastaman :)

Fuck...they really overgrow the room.2 of them are still stretching after a month of 12\12 !!! I'm talking of Grape #1 and NYCDxBG.

I used micos in everything that has soil as medium...not only in the growroom....I have no comparison but all my plants are happy...maybe in the next future I'll start a grow comparison with and without micos ;)

Hi buddy :wave:
I like B'cuzz products too :) The hydro booster I use (0,5 ml\lt) I think it contains various complex molecules like proteins,vitamins and stuff like these...but I'm really not sure.I bought it long time ago and never used...so I'm trying it in this run.
If you're interested contact ATAMI staff,they often reply really fast ;)

You're right....GH 3 parts should be very similar to dutch formula 3 parts...and maybe the next run I'll try them.
One thin I'm sure...the dosage of the 3 parts is not correct as report on the label....too much N if you follow their guide lines...so I run my own dosage....let's say similar to Luca's formula.
One more thing I know for sure is that I need to add Ca and Mg in the rez every other day or the plant will suffer showing burned spots and edges.

I did not investigate about carboload and reactions in the water.....I'm just waiting another sugar product from Atami for this run.

Many other people use carboload in hydro...but I can't risk right now,because if a reaction will appear again it will be a pain in the ass to remove all the slime in the buckets filled of roots.
I'm using carboload for plants in soil on my balcony btw ;)

From the next water change I'll use only bloom and micro,along a sugar complex.That's all.No more stuff for my ladies.I think somewhat less is somewhat better....and flush will be done only with plain water at 0,2 ec and then adding only RO water from the de-huey ;)

Keep following hydrosun and let me know your opinion in the future :)

It is like a cooking show, everyone makes great food and does it a little different than the other guys.

I don't like the 3 part ratio either. I use 5ml / gal (3.8L) micro, 2.5ml bloom or grow, 7.5 bloom or grow. Then I add the Bcuzz, sugars, and diamond nectar; but my mix of the three part is half of what the label says.

Yeah...it has something similar to cooking :D but let me understand your way.
You use to add the same micro dosage in every stage,isn'it?

My flower mix is:

5ml per gal (3.8L) micro
7.5ml bloom
2.5ml grow
2.5ml diamond nectar
2.5ml b'Cuzz bloom

You are correct I never change the micro always 5ml for veg I use 7.5veg 2.5bloom and 2.5b'Cuzz grow.

My mixes come out between 750 and 800.

So you keep adding ''grow'' part till the end,till the final flush,right?

And one more question....do you increase dosage as the plants start to bud or let the same EC\PPM for the whole run?

I use to increase dosage if plants absorb more nutrients than water.

One time,in a past dwc grow, I arrived at 2.4 mS\cm (very high) but usually,when the plants are fine and transpiration works good, I keep EC around 1 - 1.5 mS\cm
