Water Farm/DWC club

my point exactly...my, my if we just stayed on topic around here, alot of info would be bypassed, Happy Holidays

so true latewood! Merry Christmas Everyone!!:areindeer:

merry x-mas to the bear family, and everyone else of course . :noel:
hey bear finally a half assed pic. of our room for everybody , a look at our set up . we started 6 beans hoping to get 4 good ones for w/f , all 6 germd . the best 4 went into w/f , the other 2 i didn't have enuf heart to scrap . they're in pots of soiless mix in middle of farms .

the 4 in farms were veggd for 5 weeks topping them at the 4th week . the dirt plants were not topped. they are all in the fifth week of flower now . 4 d/p blueberry , 2 indoor mix mutts .

i'm noticing not quite the bud mass i'm used to w/ other strains w/ this blueberry , not gonna be any forearm sized stuff .:( more of a nugz type plant . very dense tho n much more tricomes on the blueberry than the mutts . the 1 blueberry in dirt has turned really purple in the last week . is this a phenotype differnce or might the w/f blueberries turn purple too ? the loss in yield might not be such a bad thing as long as it's got wicked potency . not to mention maybe not having to tie up all the heavy branches to the ceiling like last grow . :thumbsup:

gen. hydro shoulda made w/f round to damn it . woulda been easier to spin the top pot every cpl. days if you didn't havta pick em up to do it .:mad:

hey latewood - no bad karma , i hope ? i just didn't completely understand your answer i guess ? i did learn dif. between hardwater/softwater n the paticulars as to why . i just didn't see it as a concrete answer to bears question if 130ppm. was to hard to fully utilize the g/h 3 prt nutes . "thread jumping" ??? :confused: because i refered to blues other thread on the r/o sys. ? i'm just here to learn all i can man and maybe help somebody in the process , maybe make a friend in the process .:)

hey weedhound-sweet job bro. i'm a big animal lover . well dog lover . i'm looking into training n running therapy dogs at our local hospital right now .

tryin to get good close ups of flowers too but our camera sux .
peace
your cuz

Nice plants X!!! And nice buds too! (even tho they look a little fuzzy).

That's a nice grow room you have there too....how tall are those babies? A friend of mine and I used to run our dogs down to a nursing home years ago once a week....very informal.....extremely rewarding all the way around. These days its lots more work...more rules...testing dogs for health reasons etc.......but still just as rewarding if you can get it up and running.

hey weedhound ,
i'm kind of a techno. retard lol . i don't know how to shrink pics. via a photo shop program . i do it via the camera itself n i lose all photo clairity this way . = fuzzy pics. lol

hey all...I don't have animosity against anyone...sometimes I get in a hurry and don't clarify things as well as I should.

Hey Xcrispy and the rest of the gang, happy late Xmas. Xcrispy hope all was well with you and the Mrs. for the holiday. Well you got some pics up, will have to have my wife look at them and describe them to me a little better.
Seems like you have put in alot of work despite your condition and I applaud you.
So with your grow right now, do you just think that it is the strains that are looking like they are producing slower or do you think that it is the W/F??
Well, good smoking to you and yours.

hey folks ,
i found lotsa pics. n helpful info on the waterfarms at that i/c.com site bear , much thanx for the line on sooooo much more info . :thumbsup: i'm gonna havta bootleg some of their pics. -n- tips over here for everybody . ppl. makin manifolds verses running farms in chains to = out p/h -n- ppm . i still think recirculating them is the answer tho . i don't even remember who to thank for that tip ? :bonghit: < too many of these maybe ? i wanna say weedhound .

weedhound - w/f girls are prob. a good 40in. tall + the height of the farms themselves . the 1000's are still reaching the bottoms of the plants tho , we removed the wings/reflector from cooltubes n don't try to keep the lights over the canopy , you look at room pics. they're down between the row of girls . the lil nugz at bottoms are as far along as the ones up top .

bluebear - 3 out of the 4 in waterfarms are blueberry , the 4th. is the mutt cross and is filling in like they did in the last grow , much better than the blueberries . lack of fullness/yield isn't the fault of the waterfarms it's def. the strain . it might be a blessing in disguise tho. tying all that mess up to the ceiling so they don't fall over was a huge p.i.t.a . looked like some mini krusty stuff going on w/ all the strings . also if the blueberry is as potent as it looks 2 pounds of funk is always better than 4 pounds of junk . meds. will just last me longer .:D

i'm gonna havta start a thread -n- pick everyones brain as to a strain that has the best of both worlds w/ potency -n- yeild both . any idea latewood ? etc... :what:
peace everybody

hey all ,
instead of running farms in chains n dealing w/ p/h -n- ppm flux.
i saw someone on another site try to fix it this way - creating a manifold . it probably makes for much easier rearranging of farms as the girls grow too . i'd add an extra t fitting opposite the valve pictured to go to a 7th. bucket w/ a pump so it recirculates still tho .
peace
