Hello all and welcome to my perpetual grow. I just harvested my first grow which consisted of 4 White Widows. While I was growing them, I germinated a few more seeds and took some clones to eventually get myself setup for perpetual growing. This thread is a result of them. Configuration 1 4x8 Tent 3 4x4 Tents 4 QB800's [3000k, 660nm] 2 QB288's [3000k] 1 QB288 [3000k, 660nm] 2 AC Infinity Cloudline T6's Soil - FoxFarm Ocean Forrest Hydro - DWC / RDWC (Waterfall) General Hydroponics / Advanced Nutrients 5 Gallon Buckets / 7 Gallon Fabric Pots Strains: White Widow / Gold Leaf The 4x8 tent I will be using only for the bloom cycle 1 4x4 tent will also be used for the bloom cycle The other 2 4x4 tents will be used for the vegetative cycle The 4x8 tent is powered by 4 QB800's in 3000k spectrum and far red 660nm Strain: Gold Leaf - Entered Bloom Cycle on April 5th, 2019 Strain: Gold Leaf - Entered bloom cycle on May 3rd, 2019 Strain: White Widow 1st Gen Clones - Entered bloom cycle on May 27th, 2019 Going to be converting my whole system over to RDWC. Mounted on the wall outside of the grow tent. Also mounted outside of the tent is the AC Infinity fan
My current veg situation. The plants in the Soil are 1st gen White Widow clones. The plants in the RDWC are 1st Gen Gold Leaf clones.
My current bloom situation. More issues. Checked on the bloom tent today and half of the hydro plant was bent over. Some of the stems were bent at a 90 degree angle with a crease. Checked with a loupe because it's close, but not a single amber left. Maybe a few weeks left yet. I tied it up the best I could with some twine, but learned a lesson. So, all future grows will be trellis'd.
u went from nuub to master pretty quick monvrch, those buds r huge! u can purchase some badge clips with retractable reels and hang them above. They work good.
That's a pretty good idea. The twine was a pain to tie inside the tent. And I'm far from master, but thank you.
A little update for the bloom tent. Did some heavy defoliating today. Also tied up a few more budsites. I'm convinced that if I was defoliating and tying from the beginning, the flop wouldn't of happened. Maybe don't need the trellis. Time will tell.
Lovely!! I think you should buy some plant yoyo's though instead of using that string, plant yoyo's will make your life so much easier.
Another little update. Everything seems to be moving as it should. The Gold Leaf in the DWC is almost ready for harvest. As soon as that one is pulled out, I have 2 white widow clones that are going to take it's place. @GrowerAnonymous got the yoyo's in today and can't wait to install them. Thanks again for the recommendation.
Dunno if you can see it with fresh eyes, But i see it because I look at it all day in the tent. But there is a violet tint to the upper budsites. I ran a flexible from the central air duct to inside the tent, pointing right at the hydro.. hoping it would turn more purple. But, I guess it just isn't in the cards.
