harvested my first hydro-plant today :thumbsup: ... as expected, some major differences, soil vs hydroponic ... Positives: improved growth and better yield :thumbsup: ... Negatives: time-consuming daily 'chores', her pleasant 'citrus-floral' aroma is more of a 'sour cough-syrup' smell now :wtf:, and I had humidity problems for entire trailer ... she also took 2 additional weeks to finish, 64 days instead of the usual 50 ... (but that may also be because of low (50-60) grow-room temps this time around, I won't lay all the blame on the hydro) ... regardless, my next grow will also be hydro ... I am now adding a 3rd solution reservoir, (recirculating), to minimize maintenance, and hopefully allow me to leave home for 2-3 days at a time ... photos are of the single plant's yield, trimmed, manicured, but not dried ... molasses made an obvious difference, the buds are HEAVY, gooey, and DENSE ... luckily for me, she also must be very resistant to mold, as my humidity was 95% with lights OFF, and still 60% with lights ON, door open :wtf: ... it's no secret, my plants and I survive on 'Luck' ... thanks again to Xcrispi, StinkyAttic, Treetops, Weedhound, and local friends for the help, I'd have been lost without ya :thumbsup: ... further proof that 'newbie' growers can have excellent results, if they just READ the Forum posts, and disseminate the growing knowledge already here ... I strongly recommend going back thru all the old pages of Cultivation info, as most questions have already been answered, repeatedly ... good luck, and goodbye, folks :jointsmile:
