New grower in New Mexico

My set up: Three 5 gallon dwc buckets in a 4x4x80 inch tent. Two 400w l.e.d. lights ( California light works Solar Storm. ). My nutes are the complete line of heavy 16 Started with 5 seeds of Nirvana's Ice. All 5 germed quick in paper towel and were moved to rock wool plugs. Two were too scrawny and got culled. Moved the remaining three into the hydroton in the dwc. I'm guilty of over watering due to my newness. I believe one more will be headed to the trash. Here are the only pics I have on my phone with more to come this evening. They are now 13 days after being put in rockwool I hope to update this thread at least every weekend so that I may track my own progress and also get advice and tips from the pros.

Sounds good to me, Soup. I will be home in a bit and have a bunch of pics.My girls aren't doing well. I think I over watered way too much. Lots of droop, yellowing, and stunted growth. Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Grasscity Forum mobile app

Here they are in white light. Notice I had to put some river rocks (cleaned and rinsed) in one because I ran out of hydroton. I'm almost sure it'll die messed with it's roots too much. Nice new water ph'd to 6 Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Grasscity Forum mobile app

 

Everyone is looking fine today but my biggest won't UN droop. Water is fine, lights are good, temps are perfect, but she just seems downtrodden. Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Grasscity Forum mobile app

I appreciate it Soup. Yeah I'm only using ph'd water for now. Next week I will slowly introduce them to delicious Heavy 16 Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Grasscity Forum mobile app

 

[quote name="dishphead" post="19172635" timestamp="1387204676"]a small tip on the running out of hydroton, I suggest you use smaller netpots next time. those big ones take up a ton of hydroton with no increased benefit. I use 4 or 6 inchers and they work great.[/quote]Definitely a good idea there lol Sent from my Nexus 7 using Grasscity Forum mobile app

 

I realize that I've started this journal in the wrong section. Is it possible for a mod or myself to move this to indoor journals? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Grasscity Forum mobile app

 

Any who.... The girls are perking up! Lot less droop and signs of wanting to stretch? Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Grasscity Forum mobile app

 

Some delicious food for the girls starting next week at 1/4 power. Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Grasscity Forum mobile app

 

They're Solar Storms from California Light Works. 400 watts each. They veg, bloom, and use uvb to finish flowering. Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Grasscity Forum mobile app

 

I won't be able to see my plants until Friday. Work sucks. The wife says they're looking great. She even named one of them Dave despite me explaining many times that they're female. Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Grasscity Forum mobile app

 

Woo! These girls love light, water, and nutrients! They've tripled in size since Monday. I do have a problem though. As you can see, one girl is super low due to my running out of rocks and such. Is there a way I can bring her up to the level of her sisters besides elevating her bucket? All have dangling roots so I can't just lift and refill.

I've noticed that two of the girls have brownish roots that look a little gooey. Is this normal?Sent from my Nexus 7 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
