Closet Caramelicious Hydro grow mmmmmmm
Welcome all, this is my 1st hydro grow, 2nd ever grow. My seeds this time are caramelicious and some of the other random seeds sent from amsterdammarijuanaseeds.com Other attempt failed after I discovered my best plant had a dick...that prick. Anyways, I am taking this grow much more seriously and I plan on using the following things in a 2x2 veggie cabinet and a 4x2 flower cabinet.
-Advanced Nutrients Grow, Macro, and Bloom
-two 105 watt cfl's for veggie growth
-Home made drip/flood system designed by me.
-400w hps on a 3.5 light rail.
-Rockwool and hydroton
-Fresh2 smell eliminating cfl's
-4" computer fans
-9" household fan
Will include pictures as often as I can, I have a pretty nice camera so they should turn out pretty good

Looking might fine, I take it you are using an ebb and flow system?
Closet Caramelicious Hydro grow mmmmmmm
yea it is a hybrid ebb and flow and drip system, i designed it to see how she would work...
so some more babies poped out of the rock wool today, their names have yet to be assigned. I also added the nutrients today (advanced nutrients grow, flower, and micro) Only a little to start though ;)
Feel free to give any feedback anyone...anything you dont like or anything that will improve my setup is appreciated, thanks :)
Closet Caramelicious Hydro grow mmmmmmm
you know i could......hmmmm food for thought
Closet Caramelicious Hydro grow mmmmmmm
My advice would be that change happens fast in hydro, keep a close eye. Also I haven't seen your setup but I assume that you are running drippers directly onto the wool if so there is no need to flood too. Watch that wool if you over water it the babies will dampen off. :thumbsup:

thanks for that advice m8! How often do you water with rockwool? I am just using a moisture testing probe and I am turning out with perfect moisture. I am watching my babes like a creeper, dont you guys worry! This caramelicious stuff looks amazing!

Hey again all readers, I know this thread is kinda boring because it has no buds yet :) But if you could stick with me so that I can perfect my hydro set up, that would be sweet, and I promise to take loads of pics often. Anyways let me get to the good stuff....
Their was a death in the family...poor misty went down as a result of overheating :...(
On a good note all others are very healthy...except n00b #2, he is still under the ground trying to reach for the stars.
Here are all my lil sluts...

And if you guys have any idea what is wrong with these two lil babes I want to fix it fast so give me your best guess!

sorry and one more wierd looking plant (spots)
Closet Caramelicious Hydro grow mmmmmmm
The burnt leaf tips usually indicate fertilizer burn. Go very light on the nutes until you have three true leaf sets. and watch the ph, wool tends to modify the ph some. test your runoff water and adjust acordingly. Losing the seed leaves is no big deal but if the problem starts to move up the plant flush the wool and go lighter on the nutes. Hope this helps. :thumbup

Yea for sure, I actually checked the ph and it snuck from 6 to 7.5 from the rockwool or the nutrients (at 600 ppm) during the first watering. Looking very good today, much bigger leaves getting 3rd set. Two of the caramelicious had weak stems and I had to give them a brace...currently fans blowing on them to make the stems stronger. I will update tomorrow so that you can see their progress, those dirty sluts!

So sorry about not having more pics up sooner, the babes are looking good after 8 days from the seed pop. Nutrient burn seems to have disappeared and leaf growth is thriving :) I started the nutrient schedule of advanced nutrients macro, grow, and flower. Any other nutrients suggested by anyone? I am stoked on that closeup of Beatrice!

These photos are great! I feel like this camera may be a Nikon D80 with a $200 flash and maybe a fish eye lens.
Closet Caramelicious Hydro grow mmmmmmm
here are the babes 9 days from peeking their heads out of the ground! they just grow up so fast. switching to 12/12 in the next few days when I get the "Office" fully set up. Let me know how you think they are doing! :) enjoy

HOLY shit these look awesome! GREAT fucking job!
BRAAASSSHHHHH

Hey guys, just returned after going underground for a month lol. I have had a lot of progress and flowering was induced during 2nd week of veg. Big closet or "office" in full operation and most of my babes are healthy. I now have 6 bigger plants and four smaller "bitches." (bitches have to stay in the shitty 2x2 box) :)
The reason I return, is I seek advice. My beloved "Stallion" has begun to blacken around the base of the stem and is becoming very weak. I have extensively looked through my books and browsed the interweb (lol) for answers, and came up dry. She has already fought through one episode of this, and I need to make sure she can pull through another. She has many pistils showing now and I hate to see her go to waste. Anything helps!

Also there are some shenanigans happening on the leaves, kind of a light brownish color maybe mold of nute burn? Either way it is spreading throughout the leaves and the leaves have wilted a lot. Should I take her out of my room for the well being of all the other babes? Clone the shit out of her???
Oops sorry I didn't add the porn in the last post, how rude?
Closet Caramelicious Hydro grow mmmmmmm
please guys I really need answers, the stallion is my mistress and I dont think I can live without that slut!
Closet Caramelicious Hydro grow mmmmmmm
well the stallion is long dead, thanks everyone for the help! lol i guess you guys are over seeing caramelicious grow, so fuck it
