Nice to have ya mightymite and ancientmariner
Ancient I would definatly go with some sort of rdwc the growth is insane. I finally have some nice roots they should explode with growth in the next couple weeks. I check on em every 2 days and I can really see the roots exploding every time I visit.
Turbo I actually would like to get the 5.5" pot lids so then I could run the water level an inch or two under the pot I cant do that with the big 8s. We'll see how this gos Im sure the 8s will be all good. Get them pics up.
I'll have an update this weekend these things are getting mad roots

Day 18 in under current veggin
Pumped the ppms to 710 ph 5.8 in the uc the tray sits at ppm 520 ph 5.8.
The pks are blowing up great and there loving the dutchy gold nutes. I havent had to add ph up or down to the system at all. I just add back a little water and bring ppms up and bam right in range every time.
I'll be back I have some great pics I'll pop up later I have to go to work

Who says you need metal halide to grow thick plants

Who says you need metal halide to grow thick plants

Heres some pics as promised.
Im expecting to be flipping these lovely ladies mid next week. As long as the smallest one is at least 30 inches tall. Who knows I might have to let em go another week just to let em blow up a little bit more I want big ass roots to feed these soon to be monsters.
Remember everybody the little ones you see are about 5 day younger than the bigger oners.

Group shot



The 2 larger ladies



and look at this leaf



Heres the ebb tray with 15 pk and 1 sensi star we'll see how the pk lollipops



A little root porn



Heres the difference in 5 days growth for roots (same plant)



Hs you are exactly right these things are growing square just like the containers.
Enjoy the show

I am really liking the simplicity of this system it is very stable and I think that is key to healthy plants.
I almost forgot to mention how great the dyna-rok II is working I have stems fatter than my finger already and it holds the plants in place very good. I will definatly use this product again Im glad to say Im pretty much done with hydroton.

The dyna-rok is a silicate stone. You still have to rinse it be for you use it but its not half as bad as hydroton plus its more heavy so it holds the plants more stable. I flushed the system after running a week because the water was slightly cloudy but after that clean as a whistle. Im not sure how good its gonna clean after the chop but I will let ya know when the time comes.
So far so good

damn BG,those PK are lookin killer!!! cant wait to see some nugs as im sure you cant wait either,so how many days do you plan to flower that PK for??
 
Nice Job on the PK BigGreen those ladies look great. The roots look so insanely healthy. My roots tended to have a more dark tan brown color to them. I do feed the m Liqiud Karma though and it tends to stain them. I admire your roots my friend.

Im so glad these pks are doing so great my last 2 grows had to be scrapped and never finished. So yes I am very excited for this grow I love to watch them grow. Plus I check on em every 2 or 3 days so I get to see much progress every time.

Greenthumb:Thanks for the kind words. I belive these only take 55 days to flower if you were asking how long until I flip I think Im going to let them veg for 2 more weeks.

Brothergangja: Im glad you like them. Thats one of the reasons I strayed away from floranova in my dwc dont get me wrong I love the nova I just like to see nice white roots and thats what dutchy gold is giving me with great results.

sirsmokalot: Nice to have ya riding in the back seat stick around I have a feeling that when I flip these lovely ladies its going to be one hell of a show.

Update tomorrow night so stay tuned

Porn stars like high nutes

Porn stars like high nutes

Sorry for the delay but my computer screen burnt out.
Everything is growing like crazy. The pks aint as tall as I would like at 4 weeks but there thicker than shit. Theres eating the nutes up like mad I bring em up to 750 in 2 days there back down to 650 so it looks like tomorrow after the flush Im gonna bring em up to about 850 ppm.
Enough talk heres some pics I took today tomorrow they will be 4 weeks veg.

Heres some root porn they are like 2 ft long and about 10 inches thick try to compair to the 8 inch net pot. I can barely get em out of the uc now.



Heres some group shots


Remember theres 3 smaller ones that were put in about a week later than the rest.

Heres the ebb tray getting over grown Im gonna lollipop the shit out of em at the flip.



and heres some solo pk shots



I hope everybody enjoys the show Im hoping to switch em to 12/12 next week but Im also taking hydrosuns advise to let them hit at least 30" befor the flip.
