Hey IC.
I figured it was time to start a diary, since i have finally got a full table of plants going again. Had a rough summer where i lost a bunch of mother plants and clones, but im slowly recuperating. Heres a little stats:
Flower room is lit by 3 x 600w aircooled HPS. 4 x 8 DTW table with 14 x 3 gal pots with a 50/50 mix of coco/perlite. Automated drippers connected to a 2500L/h (660gph) pump, in a 50 gal reservoir. I use RO water or rain mixed with tapwater for cal/mag.
Mother room is lit by a 400w MH Adjustawing and mothers are handwatered in soil.
Both rooms are cooled by passive intake with fresh outside air coming in. I do have a mobile AC to handle RH and low nighttime temps in the flower room.
Like i mentioned i had a RA infestation this summer and lost some of my mother plants, and a couple rounds of clones. But things are finally back on track and this run is my first monocrop ever. The cut im rocking is a very special cutting selected from Kromes limited release of The White X NL5 x Leopard Kush X Pure Kush. The cut goes by the name Niterider, and is a truly unique plant. Metallic lemon kush flavor with extreme potency. Frost on top of frost too.
Theres 14 x 3gals on the table, and they have been veggin for about 3-4 weeks startin under the 400w halide and then under a single 600w, and finally under all 1800w. They have been topped once and since tied down and spread out for a (somewhat) even canopy. I have been growing sog style in soilbeds since forever, so im still learning about how long to veg fewer plants and canopy management. So all tips, tricks and advice is always more than welcome. Im using Canna Coco A+B base nutes @ 1.2 ec/5.8 ph with Grotek Silica @ 1ml/L. Have been handwatering @ 1L/day until today, but will fire up the drippers and feed em twice a day with about a liter per feeding. They are starting to look like they could use it and the pots are gettin kinda light only gettin fed once per day. Anyways...pics:
Mother room:
I think ill flip these come sunday, but im not sure. Gonna bump up the feeding frequency, so they should take off the next cpl of days, but im not sure if theyll be big enough to flip. I have only grown this lady single cola style so im not sure how she reacts to having multiple tops. Like i said...any advice is welcome.
Stay Safe
