coco is my favourite medium, it has the advantages of both worlds: soil and hydro. Plants thrive, crops are tasty and yields generous...

Whats the capacity of those pots? You need tropf blumats, not the juniors.

The led rig is really impressive curious about the costs?

Good luck man you have an admirer!

about $400, real watts are 160w, though what counts quth LEDs is the binning (selection), and these are top notch leds.

Glad to have you on board!!

The pots I'm looking at are actually 3.5 in pots and they are .7 liters.

Yep, AFAIK regular tropf blumats will work.

The girls, on

Nov 2nd:



Today:



I'd say they`re loving the HML they grew almost a couple inches in three days!

Blumats are the best thing since sliced bread! it has feed 6L since Friday, that's peace of mind...

RH max 83%, min 58%, temp max 23C, min 21C. No humidifier used...

Today is flip day, I'm wondering to take out the girls to train them, (a PITA as that mean removing blumats) or to simply train from above w/o moving them, will try to locate the 3mm tubing locally, if so I'll take them out and replace the tubing to the blumats.

Also thinking in using a DIY shelf to support the res, as the toolboxes prevent me from taking them out easily.

Looking great man, jealous of the Blumats!

Mahalo!

Thanks Tex! they're truly a bless, and also cheap: my setup cost like $16!

Update: I did the flip, switched to 12/12.

Observation: the girls already had preflowers, all four.

This led some double and triple checks, followed by some serious head-scratching.

The only conclusion I could come up with is either their maturity (they're 7 weeks old) or the kind of light switch, from PLL's to LEDs.

Any other hypothesis? photoperioud has been constantly 18/6.

I got my hands sticky training them!

Here they are, 3d day into flower:

The Atomic Hazes have took off!!



Front view:





There´s 10L left in the reservoir, that's 12L feeded in the last week.

Your setup is so sick!

Bad news, checked the girls this morning to find the timber pieces glued to the chamber ceiling had collapsed and everything were all over the girls: timber, HML bars, drivers, scrubber...

The worst thing: the HML bars were cooking everything under them, my luck the use of mod screens, which held everything, preventing more damage; also the HML is fine.


I propped everything again, this time drilling :(

Hopefully the girls will recover soon...
