Subscribed, I'm watching to learn, please keep the updates and photos coming, also details about feeding might be useful, LED vs HPS.

Oh, regarding feeding, I feed once a week with the same solution I use in Hydro.
The rest of the week plain water.

The soil is 30%humus, 10%sand, 30% peatmoss & 30%vermiculita

In flowering I add Natural Red Guano.

Thanks, the soil goes to the garden. Any other sugestion? (this will be probably my last indoor soil, DWC much easy to keep)

Regarding the leds I must say that they are working good. Better than HDI? donno yet, the Moby had extra veg work with the leds since I made her everything (topping, cropping, prunning) the last 2 weeks, and she respond great. So far I haven't notice big differences with MH (so is great!). Thumbs up for the leds until now, main reasons: They feel SAFE than HIDs, specially for small spaces & Moby (high light demanding strain) is reacting good to this led.

Last Sunday (08-18-2013) just change to 12/12 so, NOW THE GAME IS ON (For this leds)! :dance013:

Great Update! Ladies look good. I am running DWC / drip system. Have been running into root rot issues... Suspect reservoir temps. Ran this system for over 2 years now. Thinking of switching to drain to waste ( Dutch Bucket system). I have one test plant going and it is doing great. Going to automate the feed schedule. Yeah looking forward to the flowering stage...

Check out my twist on F & D. I use Hydro Halo Rings as rainforest shower heads.

Grow medium aside from 1/2 starter cube is river rock

Now on version 2.0


I am expecting explosive growth

Original plan was to move them into 4 liter APs, but shit a SOG using these as is (2 plants/ HH Ring) would be awesome, so I will test that with 2 of them
