im thinkin next feeding stop giving any lucas formula and just go w some monster bloom, most plants look like they have plenty of N, thinkn the 0 - 50 - 30 will help them bulk up & get thick.

Don`t make me pull a "pics or it didn`t happen" like in the inductive light thread...:moon:.......lol......

Made a post in your "ebb and flow bucket" thread in hydro section and yas never came back...anyways.........

If yas decide ta run em holler , cuz I ran DIY 5 gal bucket setups in flip rooms for over 5 yrs with dialed results....

The main concern with the manufactured units is the bullshit controller bucket that have the cheapest float switches that will stick after prolonged salt exposure from the juice , and then flood the room and burn the pump up in the process......and.......

The small ass feed/drainlines and if yas grow too big a plant before flip , rather build too big a rootmass by end of stretch , flow stops from roots clogging said feed/drainlines , and imminent crop death from root rot ensues with the quickness.........but.....

Ebb and flow buckets dialed and hoonin are all but bulletproof once yas know where the danger zones are and howta avoid em.......Heath talked me into em cuz he swore and be damned that....

NO chiller was required , and I went with it and never looked back till upgrading to more plants per room and stacked bulbs.......anyways....Hope all`s well with your bitches....and....

Holler if I can help.....

Peace.....Freds.......:ying:....

^^^2 of the most impressive plants in the room are "keeper phenos" of testers from hazeman seeds that a pal gifted clones toward this room... i have contacted him asking for more.... impressive, gage green & hazeman got my attention with these 2.


lots of yellowing in the room at this point, plants havent been fed any N about 2weeks, last week was all monsterbloom ( o - 50 - 30) this week all flush... many plants seem overripe by hair color, haven't scoped them yet to check trich cloudy/amber... will do soon.

If you look at your bud you can see the trichs turn a dull white color when they get close. That is when I use the scope. If you see glints they are not close and need more time. This may save you some time because a quick look is all it takes.

:yeahthats

I use one of those piece of shit loupes, for nothin'. Makes me feel like eye surgery was a waste of $$.

I do the at-a-glance as well. Saves me from feeling old, if nothing else. The "glints" lookout is perfect advice. My quick, gut, at-a-glance is if I see something shiny/glinty, I don't even bother with the f*ckin' loupe.
