Looking good, when are you flipping?
Yeah I hear ya, maybe there is something with better thermal property that could be used with safety, stainless steel pipe? I am not sure though!
Hehe yeah I'm kinda glad I haven't ventured into pure hydro yet, it would probably be overwhelming. Coco is really nice in that sense - it's not that hard to do. I am honestly loving the fact that I can grow big plants in 1 gallon pots.
I flipped the lights like 3 days ago now! Hopefully the net will be filled out real nice by the end of stretch.

The polyethlene Im using is safe it is used for RO water systems. Where my copper is cooling has no effect on the system because the water im cooling never gets into the nutes. The water is contained and running through the poly pipe never getting into the bubble bucket that's why I have the poly sitting on the floor to test for leaks between the pipe connectors. Hope that makes sense

I know I saw first hand when testing Coco against the bubble bucket my Coco blew right past the bubble bucket , but it could be my in experience with both. But im not just going to cut my huge bubble bucket tree down till it's been finished
95% of my plants are in Coco and probably will stay there. I might add some other soiless amendments to help the Coco and to possibly make it where it does not need to be ph'ed I hate messing with acid's my bro has it down no messing with meter's or any ph shit and he is setting up multi LB grow's try 76 lites 150lb's I know I know my show proof or it's not true, but I dont give a damn if you or anyone else believes makes no diff to me. because I know and have seen it go down!!Ah I hear u uncle, sounds like a great way to cool the res for sure. Interesting about the coco blowing past bucket. I do very much like coco now that I gotten the hang of it a little bit more. Right now the girls are thriving and they are looking very healthy, very nice green color. The EC is at ~1.35, I don't know if I should up it more gradually now until I see yellow tips on the fan leaves just to max it and then gradually get it down again a few weeks before harvest? What do you guys usually do?
Pic update, i managed to be around the girls training them until the light came off, they look really healthy if you ask me I'm really pleased with how well everything is going. They are drinking like a gallon of nutes every day now, almost no run-off at the moment. As you can see the girls are starting to go into puberty!

Sprayed the girls with some insecticide... And forgot that you shouldnt have the lamp turned on. I have been feeling bad for days now, because they look terrible.
Will they recover without any huge damage? Most leaves have some chemical burns or something, but they have not wiltered, even tho brown spots on them.. Is this normal when this happens? Will they get completely stressed the fuck out because of this - production has pretty much haltered in the last 2 days since it happened from what I can see..

What did you use on them, only time I've seen results like that was using way too strong a mixture of pyrethrin
The leaves that are damaged will stay that way, but new growth should be fine.
Also, what strain is that?

That's exactly what I used - and probably a bit stronger than adviced, hehe. But yeah I removed a lot of the leaves that were severely burnt - and so far they are not looking too shabby anymore - it looked worse than it had impact I guess, because flowers keep growing and such. I think I will add some PK into the nutrients soon, to give the production a little boost.

Careful with the pyrethrin in flower too, shit tastes horrible so don't use it later in flower
Thanks, good to know - I have looked over some leaves now and the buggs seem to be dead - I can still see eggs under the leaves, but if nothing starts crawling in a few days I think I'll be safe (?)

Looks good! How far along are you?
Thanks
I switched 30 days ago now, so I would say another 30-40 days until harvest if my calculations are correct - I'm gonna look over my last grow with the same genes and see how long it took for them more exact - I don't wanna pump them with nutes right into harvest like last time hehe.
