thanks guys...

I upped the Epsom to 1 g though and i am also running 1-3 ml/gal h202 (based on plant size), and 1 ml/gal floralicious plus for the last 5 days of each rezz cycle.

Rezz cycles = 2-3 weeks.

pH is set at 5.4 for veg and 5.1 for flower. It is not downed until 6.3 in veg and 6.1 in flower; at which point i take them back to 5.4 and 5.1 respectively. For down mgmt i use citric acid for the first pH (helps prevent Ca bonding) and then choose nitric or phosphoric acid as the second and third applications of acid depending on which i think will help the plant more.

Hey DS - I wondered does the use of pH down/up cause Ca bonding?

What would inform your choice as to whether to use nitric or phosphoric acid?

Finally if I understand correctly. You use the full nutrient profile posted, and then periodically top off water(for 2-3 weeks). Does this mean, you don't add back any nutrients during this period of time? Are you adding the h202 and floralicious plus, but no other nutrients?

Otherwise it looks great, and am going to try vegging my clones(until they go into coco), above those trays as well.

How are you doing since the accident? Hopefully better.

It can cause bonding, citric acid helps to prevent this from happening.

Id use nitric any time i saw a N deficentcy, and phosphoric or citric otherwise.

And yes, i don't add back other then the floralicous/h2o2.

This coco was in 48 hours of darkness and under the lights the same day the row was cut down....

Man DS the grow is looking on point brotha, beautiful pics.

 

[Yes4Prop215]

damn that ultima is lookin nice! awesome grow as always love seeing how you do things...

We run 1 can fan per 4 hoods. No ac or dehumidifier needed =0.

Personally im not a fan of raptors, they dont cool properly and throw too large of a footprint. i would prefer 3 lights per 8X4. But i had to work with what the had for now.

Thanks.

DS

3 600s or 3kws over 4x8? thats pretty interestin.....so the raptor has a large footprint but the lumens are too spread out? you are still getting nice rock hard colas under those raptors though! better than a yield master lol..

Wow DS some AAAwesome Flowers! That Chem Ultima Lookin SO GOOD!

 

[toohighmf]

I want cuts off that mommy... Dayum! outrageous..

 

[BCMaster]

No kidding, I haven't seen chrome like that for years

 

[eburna]

literally an inspirational grow! I have my seedlings in rockwool on a cupcake baking sheet I had lying around, hoping for roots like that, lol. It must have be time consuming to train every plant to grow on those screen. The chem ultima looks DANK. Very nice work, sir.

 

[desertsquirrel]

few more ultima pics..

 

[toohighmf]

Hope everything worked itself out bro. ultima looks like just what the Dr ordered fa sho! tell me theirs mom around with a rack of kids somewhere for me!!! Let me know how you like that Denkyu BTW.. peas mon

 

[desertsquirrel]

Thanks twohigh, i still haven't decided if i should address the issue or just send my assistant over to keep the pics coming. Got screwed hard, but i still miss the girls, you know?

Anyway, when the chem is ready for testers you will be the first to know, and thanks again for the bad ass gear, can't wait to demo it on here for you.

Take care brother talk to you soon.

looking good man

 

[desertsquirrel]

Hmm. Unfortunately i was taken off this project. I haven't posted as id like to remain professional in the face of adversity. I will try to have someone else get in there for pics if the legalities work out.

Its defiantly been another serious lesson in trust, patience and resolve.

Thanks to all of you who have posted, you have no i idea how much i appreciate it right now.
