Doco's Waterfarm Hut
Well, the plants seem to have survived the transition from bubbler to the waterfarm so this will be the start of my latest adventure, Doco's Hut 3.0. This is my first time getting wet with hydro and naturally I am running into various little problems but I guess thatâ??s another way to learn.
First I overfed them and most of them got some nute burn around the edges of the lower leaves. The Ph was running high (6.3) and I tried correcting it a couple of days but just couldnâ??t get it to come down so I made a fresh batch, made certain it was phâ??d to 5.8 and only about half the nutes I used before. Tonight I checked again and the Ph is up at 6.7 so Iâ??m not sure wtf is going on. I dunno â?? like I said, this is as much a learning experience as anything else â?? Iâ??ve got plenty of herb from my last harvest so if I muck this up itâ??s ok.
After that first res change I knew that two piece GH Res/Controller combo was a goner. After some quick footwork and just a little spilled water, I eliminated the secondary res and now just have the one that the recirculating bucket feeding it directly.
Plants seem to be growing well despite my clumsy start. These are just over 4 weeks from seed, germed the beginning of April. One thing that is really perplexing me is this new digital ballast I have does not seem as bright as my standard old clunkerâ?¦maybe itâ??s just my perception but Iâ??m scouting for a 1000w now. I am putting way too much time & energy into this to be half steppinâ??.
