Recirculating DWC - Custom LED Grow
Ok, after several requests I have decided to make a grow log. I'm pretty busy day to day so I will try to keep this as updated as possible.
Grow space is a Secret Jardin DR100 (3'x3'x6') I have three buckets set up with drip rings and each bucket has an airstone and a flexible air tube in them.
I planted the seeds from misc seeds I'd collected so I have no idea of the strain. They were planted in a bubble cloner in rapid rooter plugs on June 5th. They sprouted on June 8th. I was just giving them 5.8PH water with one drop of superthrive per gallon. I then transplanted them to the buckets with hydroton on the 11th due to RAPID root growth. They were starting to intertwine in the bubble cloner.
On June 18th, the fifth set of leaves showed so I drained the tap water and filled the system with 5.8PH using latewood's formula of 1-1-1 (1=8ml). Using the general hydroponics flora series.
I can't upload pics yet, but I will when the forum allows me to.
The light is a custom UFO for vegging. It has 56 453nm blue LED's and it has 34 430nm LED's. It's bright as could be and puts off no heat. The root growth on these plants is unbelievable. They are staying rather short..so I think.
Right now I'm running the light and the air bubblers 24/7. I'm only using the drip ring on for 30mins every two hours.
One plant is ahead of the other two. The very edges and tips of the first set of leaves looked a little dry/curled. I didn't have a recirculating fan in there until today....lets see if airflow makes a difference. Ambient temps stay between 78-80 with no exhaust fan.
My flower light is another custom light using 100 660nm LED's, 12 453nm LED's, and 7 430nm LED's.
Anything I've left out other than pics? Lemme know!:thumbsup:ledtime Reviewed by ledtime on . Recirculating DWC - Custom LED Grow Ok, after several requests I have decided to make a grow log.
