  5. And forget to mention.. the two site tub is for.my micro cab grow, the five site plant is an experiment.. to see about cloning, making fem seeds, the three have bwen in dwc... for three days... then soil for another 4 days.. now back into dwc... the amount if stress these have had, and if they make it, should prove to be nice strong mother plants... at least my thought on them.. hope that clarifies:D
     
  6. Hey man. I'm curious where I should keep my PPM's. I got some clones that blew up and got really big. I trimmed leaves, supercropped and LST'ed a bit about a week before flower. More because I had to because I was running out of space because the clones were bunching. Anyway, I increased nutes up to around 700 PPM in Veg, and about 5 days ago switched to flower. Where should my PPM's be? The plants are big and healthy, just wondering what I should aim to keep it around. 
     
  7. 700 is where I always keep mine. I use aquaflakes. This is a highly debated topic so I'm sure others would have different opinion.
     
  8. Picked up a ppm meter.. :lol:
     
  9. Here's a pic today.. New to dwc.. I think they look good..for the stress I've put them thru.. it will be 4 days in the tub.. phed checked daily and maintained..

  10. The net pot and hydroton seems a lil dry. It should be dripping wet from the bottom of the net pot when removed from the bucket.

     
  11. Thanks for the quick reply.. the water sits about 1/4 inch away from the surface of the water....bubbling up.. it's a 140 gallon pump.. running 4 stones.. I have a 300 gal pump.. ill switch then out and see how it goes?
     
  12. Sorry.. correction.. the pots sits 1/4 inch above the water surface..
     
  13. Checked on them today. Ppm sitting at 200.. PHed at 5.5. Git the bubbler worked out.. needed less water.. with more room between surface and pot.. it gives more "bubbler/misting"effect... much better. Thanks fir the info..I'm going to start a thread over in hydro in the next few days.. Thanks again
