thought I would share my second grow with you lot as I am using a new method and my mess ups may help somebody else. my first grow thread is here.. http://boards.cannabis.com/indoor-growing/156820-my-first-go.html

ok thought I would try the dwc method this time, I've no experience of this sort of growing and in fact don't have much experience of any sort of growing! so please keep any questions simple.

I am using a 10 litre bucket (cost 20p from a boot fair) a high-tech fishtank air pump with twin outlets (cost £5.00 s/h from boot fair). also have two 4" airstones and a couple of metres of tubing from local aquarium shop. cooling is supplied via my old pc power unit and lighting is an envirolite 200w flowering bulb. nutes are ionic bloom for hard water at 7ml per litre, I will also be adding ionic boost when it gets here.

the plant is to the best of my knowledge a super skunk and has been flowering for 10 days. I placed the rooted clone in 3" rockwool cube and then into a 3" net pot with a few clay pebbles to fill the gaps. i placed this in the bucket 30 days ago so its had about 15-20 days veging.

will be dumping the solution to refill with fresh in a few days and will post some shots of what's going on underneath.

almost forgot to say that I am not using a p.h meter or ec meter just to see if I can get by without them.

few more pictures, now using ionic boost at 1ml per litre. started to tie her down a bit as my cupboard is running out of room. I dont think I have lost a single leaf yet and i'm almost 3 weeks into 12/12, my last one in soil had dead leaves pretty much all the way through although never in huge numbers.
