I hear you kp. I waited a little to seriously tie them down and try to even them out, but they keep getting bushier(I know a good thing) and I'm worried they'll shade eachother, that and those Afghanis are leaving the northerns in the dust for height. I'll have to get you pics soon to show you how much I've trained them so far. I am planing on getting some flourescents to mount along the walls(tube not compact) with my next paycheck(and last since I quit). So hopefully I can mount them in there as stressless as possible. Don't worry I won't change them, just a lapse in rational thinking.
heh, this one is for anyone who can afford nothing ;) the diy dwc bucket with a pump, two airstones, and household items...
deffinitely a simple set up, a deep water culture bucket with limited budgets in mind. this will be a complete grow diary, with a just rooted clone as the experiment plant. the strain is dutch passion's blueberry.
the first thing you'll need is a 5 gallon bucket and lid. i procured these items for free at a construction site in a nearby neighborhood. wash thoroughly, as there may be any number of bad things waiting to grow in the bucket along with your plant.
next, you'll need a net pot. i made one by poking many holes in a 12 ounce cup. i put a long shanked screwdriver in the woodburner for a few minutes, and punched right trough the plastic. after a hundred holes or so, it's ready for a medium.
choice mediums are rockwool and hydroton; crushed lava rocks can be used also. my free alternative is driveway gravel. i selected small and medium sized gravel, and washed well (same reason as above), and sterilized by boiling for 10 minutes.
in that ten minutes, i cut a hole in the lid, using the bottom of the cup net pot as a refference. i got the cup in place just as the rocks were ready to come off the stove. i then strained the gravel through the net pot, and set in cool running water for ten minutes.
once the gravel cooled down, i punched two pen sized holes in opposite sides of the lid. i then ran my airlines through these holes, and connected my airstones. i possitioned the pump atop the lid for easy removal, and connected the lines to it...
now, it's time for the cutting. this one has just put out two little tap roots. i placed the cutting in an upright possition in the gravel, and set rocks around the base to hold and stabilize the plant.
after that, i filled with water (so that the two inches of the bottom of the cup are under water) set under the 400w mh, and plugged it up.
viola! a super cheapo dwc bucket!
next...
and the rest of the story...
ps, the diary won't be here... i copy/pasted to save on typing
