Update:

I know it's been awhile, but not a lot new, other than had to cut a few buds off the top cola on the left. It is so dense (no air circulation) that mold took hold. Sprayed a few days with h2o2, but decided to cut those away for air circulation and to stop mold from spreading

Maybe 2 weeks left, so I dumped nutes and replaced with fresh. Hope they finish soon.

2 females in veg tent grown with NPK RAW will replace the 2 grown/bloomed with EH.

The young-uns will bloom with NPK RAW Bloom, as are the 2 @ 2 weeks in bloom are currently

Looked back in this thread. Seeds were started on April 10, so not too far beyond normal finish time

very nice plantz

Thanks. This is previous thread. check out Hail Hydro 2.0...

Checking finishing plant this morning, the cube came apart and the entire plant fell over during the night

Nutes in the bottom tent cover. Phew, nutes did not make it to the floor, but will use my small cement mixing tubs from now on.

I planned on making a fresh veg solution (more N) < 350 as the leaves have lost most of their chlorophyll and there's ~ 10 days left

Fortunately, no snapped branches

Babies: none of the seeds popped, so I dropped more seeds directly into the coco pellets

wtf, i don t think you ll have a lot of cleaning work after cut! sweet smokes

So basically you may perhaps gain a week off veg and an increase in yield of say 30% if your lucky....all so you can spend your time and money on ph meters, ec meters and ferts and boosters and oh lets not forget to preventive spray for bugs and PM because your plants are so weak and have no immune system.....yea hydro so 1990's....I can't believe people still stuck there.

where do you get your bad information?

anyway, this thread has been replaced with my new thread Hail Hydro 2.0 New Beginnings

Here's a teaser: 3 medium branches. Wet weight 78gms. Shit, all the other pictures are in my cell phone.

You need to sub my new thread Hail Hydro 2.0 New Beginnings

Hey Petflora,

Great thread, packed with useful info, pictures, experiences. It is plainly obvious you put a lot of solid thought and effort into your setup. Well worth emulating. Like the focus on environmental factors, Rh, DO, TDS, water quality. My experience has been that Hydro most definitely can be a huge improvement over soil. I had to learn this the hard way. It started when I noticed how much of the time plants in soil were too wet or too dry, pH would rise, nutrient lockout set in, burnt leaves, stunted growth. All problems that are easily addressed with Hydro. Anyone growing in soil still can get a taste of the possibilities doing this. Put an air stone and pump into a pail of water and water your plants. You may be surprised at how perky your plants become. Roots cannot drown in Hydro, they can in soil. That's what moved me step by step into flood and drain.
