hey hey
I used to have some pictures, but sadly I lost nearly all of them. It was a couple years ago that I did my growing. I had a rubbermaid tub that held 12 gallons of water; an extremely simple DWC setup. Had a couple of cheap air pumps attached to two 5" airstones from wallyworld. Couple fans for blowing air around in/out of the closet. Used GH's FloraNova grow and bloom. PH was always crazy as hell cause I had those liquid testers.... actually I had two liquid PH testers and they both gave me completely different readings! I just gave up trying to adjust ph up and down and just left it alone and stopped checking it. I also had a Bluelab Truncheon, which I really didn't need but it didn't hurt of course.
I really really wish I still had some pics to show, but I did find some pictures of the final product. Hmmm.... I haven't gotten 50 posts yet here so I dunno how I could post them. Here's the photobucket url's for a few pics of the buds:
this one was almost 5 grams:

Oh yeah, I also forgot to mention that it was all mediumless from seed to harvest.
What I did was scrape the seeds a bit with a razor because they were really thick and tough. The soaked them in a cup of RO water with Superthrive until they popped and then put them into a damp paper towel until the sprouts were several inches long. Then I put the best looking ones into a tiny plastic container that I'd made into a mini bubble bucket, still with just plain water with superthrive. Once they were about to outgrow the mini bubbler, I moved them to the 12 gallon res and started with 1/3 strength nutes. I was using those styrofoam pool noodles to support the base of the seedlings.
I ended up only keeping one of the plants which was the best female of the group. The strangest thing happened too... when it was a newborn in the minibubbler I accidentally bumped it, completely cutting it in half about an inch below the cotyldons! I thought it would immediately die but i left it sitting in the bubbler and like a miracle it started to grow new roots just like a clone would! I'm glad I kept it and nursed it back to health, it gave me some damn good buds as you can see!\"There\'s no right, there\'s no wrong, there\'s only popular opinion.\" - 12 Monkeys.
