3600W Hydro Ebb N Flow. W/ Bubba Kush

Discussion in 'Hydroponic Grow Journals' started by silentkloak, Aug 28, 2014.

  1. Ok, straight to business.

    I'm running (6) 600s, (3) 6ftx4ft trays, (2) 100 gallon res. (1) 12,000 btu A/C. As well as fans, pumps and air for the system.

    Iv got roughly 96 bubba kush clones. Currently they're bathing in a 280ppm GH soup. I'm running such a low ppm the first few days hoping that some of the clones withcatch up to the others as far as their root development goes.

    Here are some pice

  2. Ok. So I raised the ppm to about 680. Plants seem to be doing well.

    Ph is 5.8

    Flooding every 4-5 hours right now.

  4. I love how each time I come into my room I can see new growth now.

    Due to such low ppm I nute locked the plants. Since then ive been foliar feeding them with a 450 ppm mist.

    Plants have turned around and are showing sign of stay growth as well as returning to normal color.

    Agreed!  96 bubba kush plants = heaven.
     
    PPM stands for parts per million.  Same thing as TDS and EC.
     
  10. Lol still confused on the TDS and EC :huh:

    Total dissolved solids and Electric Conductivity.  All 3 are fancy names for measuring the amount of particles/nutrients in the water.
     
  13. Ohhhhhhh okay! Is there a thread on GC you can direct me too so I can look more about it? :)

  14. There are a few good ones stickied in the beginners section. Look for the ones that mention pH and ppms.

  19. perfect!  :smoking:
     
    I'm very interested in following this grow because I don't see too many ebb and flow journals.  I'm wondering.  DO the plants need to be re potted at any point?  Are the roots expected to grow and hang out of the pots/hydroton or will it all be contained within the pot?
     
  20. No repotting. Rootsjust grow invite tray. Usually I'd have about twice as many pants. Roots will grow out of the container
