Tis me first hydroponics grow. 4.5 weeks into flowering. Space Candy and Conspiracy Kush. Just curious how i am doing compared to my peers?
I'm about 2 or 3 days behind you and I'd say it looks like you are right on track! Your girls look very happy! I grew for many years in soil but this is my first hydro run as well. Doing a single plant for mine but looks to be pretty close to the same development as yours.
NanoGadget you got it going on! Are you dwc? Whats you lighting and strain, if you dont mind me asking?
Looks pretty nice man...right on track...check out my grow journal for comparison. Updated every week, just about to havest beautiful critical kush. Smells amazing. I had an extremely short veg period so nugs are small but they are fully mature.
Thanks! I'm running RDWC (which stands for recirculating deep water culture if you're not familiar) under a CLW Solar Storm 440 light. The strain is Papaya. Got her all by herself in a 3x3 tent and she is filling it up nicely. You have a journal going? if not you should continue to update on this thread. I'd love to watch your progress, especially since we are so close to the same stage of flower.
I am also rdwc. Veg i used about 1000 actual watt led's, as soon as i noticed first signs of bud i switched to de 1k watt hps. I have 3 ladies in 5 gallon buckets, 4th bucket was male. I do have pics from seed to now. I will work on my journal.
Right now i keep getting root growth into my drains at bucket bottoms preventing drainage. So today they are not recirculating untill i can drain and clear roots again. I think i vegged for too long and have too much roots. Lol
My Solar Storm is 350 watts actual in bloom mode and I've had excellent results as long as I don't try to go bigger than 3x3. My last two runs with it I've pulled just a tiny bit under 1 gram per watt... not bad for a 4 year old blurple.. lol. What kind of LED were you using?
Also, I didn't have problems with the roots clogging because I did a mod to my system recommended by a buddy. I use a GH WaterFarm, and before the grow I took a drill and doubled the number of holes in the bottom of the top section. This allowed the roots to grow freely into the water reservoir section of the bucket. I also added an air stone. basically makes it a hybrid of traditional DWC and RDWC...
