Blue Mystic grow log...

MG the tent I have and pretty much all ones being made now do not have that kill the plant syndrome. I have been running mine for about a year now and the only thing that goes on inside there is formations of Bud!!
There was some kinda vapor leeching going on with some tents a whlie ago but thing most companys got there heads out of their arses and have not heard of anyone losing plants to tent syndrome or whatever it was called, sorry cant remember very well. Fell off ladder at work today and just got home from ER a lil while ago. Morphine kinda messing with thought process atm. Got mine from BGH Hydroponics | Hydroponic Supplies just shy of 3 bills. I have the GL120

Now that you mention it... i do remember 80cfm now.

Also I paid $140 for my Homebox tent on sale and $80 for my Growlab mother tent. Cant remember the site for the homebox but I got the Growlab brant new on ebay from a hydroponics shop.

As for the horror stories... It was called "outgassing" from tents made with PVC. When PVC heats up it releases toxic gasses. They still make tents with that crappy stuff so you have to make sure it lists 100% PVC free material. All of the more expensive makers seem to have switched. Moving from small cabs I built in my closet to the use of tents was the best investment ive made so far in my hobby.

Here are some pictures after 1 day of flowering. She has perked up real nice after the flush. Tons of pistols have showed up seemingly over night.

Been busy lately and havent had time to update. Ive been having some issues with my DWC again... It seems when I add FF big bloom to the res it seems to stress it out and the PH rises so fast. It ended up getting some PH damage on the leaves. I gave it 1/2 strength dose. I finally dosed it with h2o2 when the ph problem was getting out of hand. By the time I left in the morning and got home from work it was near 7.0! The h2o2 seemed to fix it. This ph problem made it stop growing...and it already has been gowing so slow! She has been slow from the very start. Must be a bad pheno...

Am I doing something wrong with the big bloom?

Also another question for you guys... Ive heard many different answers so I would like some more feedback. When should I stop pruning leaves when in flower?

that is why i havent started to play with DWC yet.. its scary on the dark side! lol


~MG a.k.a. le Maine développé

we dont prune leaves so cant help ya with that one

So the Scotts soil mixed with perlite is doing much better than I thought it would. She is starting to bud great. Shes not stretching too much. Seems to be about an inch between nodes. She getting stinky and her trichs are starting to show.

Picked up some really nice organic butter that im going to use to make cannabutter. That should be fun. Also picked up a satalite system that connects to my UFO and has 8x individual sockets for CFLs or LED spotlights. Also got a 9w 660nm LED spotlight to fit into one of the sockets. I will be able to point that at the shorter tops for better coverage.

I plan on polinating some lower buds at the end of this week. I think the seeds should be done by 6 weeks... if anyone can confirm that it would be cool.

Here is some bud porn... These are at 2 weeks exactly.

Some more shots...

hey so im sorry if i missed this in the post.... how did you keep the little ones wattered before the roots were reaching the water??? did you just keep the bucket full to the brim???? also how is the roots lookin now?? any sludge?? no root rot?? im debating on soil, deepwater, or areo ponics for the next go round. and also how many times do you have to top off the water in the bucket???? man this makes me wanna go this rout. alot less gear required than a areo set up. :hippy:

Aero is real tricky and sensitive DWC is alot easier for sure
