    Stinky's Crash Course in "nOOb Hydro"... Welcome to the Darkside

    Stinky, why do you choose to use the HPS on your mama's? Is it that it's what you have, and it's your spare, or do you favor the HPS for veg. Because that is my choice of light source.Veg and flower.Just curious! You never fail to help me!

    Ga Grown!

    To answer the 'how big' question, what you see is what you get- that bud was an entire plant. It also had about a half dozen fan leves on it, but I cut them off when I harvested it.
    I only use the HPS in flower. The confusion over mothers under HPS is that my focus is actually on clone production rather than bud production, and I often have old retired mothers kicking around who have outlives their usefulness as clone donors, so I toss them into flower. When they are in veg, I keep them under T12 shop lights with cool white tubes until I need to harvest cuttings off them, then I put them under my MH400 and hit them with N for a week, then feed them bloom fert for another week, then harvest cuttings. The bloom fert is good because a mom at the point of being cut should be very slightly N starved and have plenty of P available so the clones will root well.
    Thank you Rock. For an experiment, I thought it came out rather well.

    Everything is down and cleared out.

    I've been scrubbing the troughs and about to run the pots through the dishwasher to prepare the setup for another round.

    Now we clean hydroton...
    Shown is a big bin with all the hydroton that the system used (equivalent to a 5 gallon pail full) and about 4 gallons of water with 40 mL cannazyme and an airstone in it. I've removed the chunks of root matter. I'm going to let that sit for about a week and then rinse it off and adjust the pH for re-use.

    One thing I noticed with this system is that there is no need to adjust the res temp. Since everything is spilling over hydroton all the time, and cascading through air, it stays at approximately ambient air temperature- so if the room is at proper temp, so is the res.

    It's the same deal with the airstone. It was completely unneccessary and I removed it early in the grow. The cascading action is enough to keep the res aerated.

    I highly recommend this method to aspiring hydro growers.

    And then we smoke the spoils! I'm a bit thunderfucked at the moment... :drool:

    Uh oh... what's that under the domes? Could it be... noooo... but it IS!

    OMGWTF!

    TO BE CONTINUED.....

    wow, I've been off track from this thread for awhile.

    LOVE those colas! Beautiful. Going to grow some DG this summer outside and hopefully get a few clones (IF I can figure out cloning)

    As for temps and ph etc.....my favorite saying is that's its all good.....right up until you have a problem. Stinkster didn't get a problem so she wins. :thumbsup: Unfortunately, I've had WAY too many so it behooves me to check carefully.

    Lol!
    I can't say that the grow went perfectly, either... I did end up with some toxic salt crap at the end because I wasn't changing the res often enough, but the effort-to-harvest ratio was very low, and in my book, that's great!
    Watch out Hound, before we know it, Reaper will return to the internet, only to discover that his 'Daddy's Girl' is the new 'It Girl'! I'm doing my part to spread the love across New England. She's such a cutie.

    Under the dome may or may not be a fresh round of clones with some real winners in the group...
    Stinky may or may not have gotten her hands on some members of the Diesel/Chem family recently...
    Only time will tell!
