Water NLx Grow Log - 400W MH/HPS - Bubble Bucket
Hey hey!

I waited until I had the seedlings into the bubble bucket to make this so there'd be a bit more to show. They were started under 52 watts of daylight for about 4 days then they were moved underneath the MH.

Grow Info:
Strain: NLx by Alien Click here for info
aliennlxbigbud.jpg
Room Size: 2.5'x2.5'x10'
Light: 400W MH/HPS for veg/flower - 24/0 veg cycle
Number of Plants: 4 plants - 5.5" netpots - 28g resevoir
Hydro System: Bubble Bucket - 2 pumps(one dual outlet) - 3, 12" air stones


Day 3 (under CFLs): Yep, they're in a caserole dish!

Day 8:
-Moved the 400W MH a little closer - it sits about 2ft away from the tops now.
-Temp is a steady 77 degrees with 25-30% humidity.
-Killed off two of the sad seedlings.

I have a question..what nute mix are you running in your bubbler because im running a bubble bucket system with a few plants in it on day 8 using cheap floragrow/floramicro nutes @ 1/2tbsp per gallon and this is what mine lool like, and there under a 400w MH also.





the last 2 pots just recently got germinated so pay no attn to them.

Let me guess, no tds/ppm meter. Dude you really need one as well as a PH meter. The nutes will work ok, might throw in a pinch of epsom salts now and then to ward off mag deficiency.

Yea a EC/tds/ppm meter and ph adjusting supply's are a must..cause them plants look a bit skinny,and kinda stretched.

Is this directed toward me? If so, I do have a PH meter and the water's at 5.9. No nutes, just water. They're small because they had a rough start without a humidity dome (it was in the mail for a while) and I had to repot them.

They're streched because they (10 seedlings) grew underneath only 52w of CFL. It'll stop now that they're under the MH.

fyi its rockwool and hydroton rocks.

The PH part is directed at anyone who reads and your PH should be 5.5 and u should be giving nutes, I give them nutes from the get go in hydro, 150ppm worth for clones and seedlings. Of course without a meter its guess work. Oh, and I do know what I'm talking about.

I'm going by <a href=http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/6883/nutrientchartsoillandhypc0.jpg>this chart</a> here. I wasn't aware I could give them nutes this early, thanks that's good to know - I'll do it up right now in fact. I've read a PPM meter is not needed if I go by the nute chart on the bottle and change the resevoir water frequently (which I plan on doing).

Day 10ish:
-Seedlings are lovin' the 150ppm nutes.
-Only one of the four plants has roots coming out of the bottom of the netpot so far. I imagine they'll start taking off once they're all getting bubble-fied.
-Slow start, but doing well
-Lowered the 400w MH 1" today.

Temp: 78
Humidity: 36%
