Hydro week 3, red stems

[MrGrapeGod]

Hey, so all my hairs have changed to a bronze orange, but i haven't completed the flowering cycle. What's the deal?

[tinytoon]

The red hair thing is common in my grows, about 4 weeks out??

The color of the hairs means nothing except strain related. All turn after harvest so how do we know a white strain from a normal redhair ?

It's the color of the trichomes that matter.

I was waiting for our resident trichomesoligist to reply in hehe. I was gonna say trichs but didnt want to take Loc's favorite subject lol

It's about 5 weeks about, i wanted another week with the final nutrient and two weeks to flush the plant with just distilled water

4 or 5 pretty much the same just different strain

Hydroton ! me too ! Can we talk about that stuff cuz'n i don't know many
who do ! After germination in rapid rooters you put the seedlings into the
hydroton. How far down do you bury the seedlings...right at the top...
Or closer to the bottom ! ? and yyyyyyyyyyyyyy !

The more your plant is at the bottom of the netpot the more stability it will have when roots grow out.. But for some the plant is short so it will have to go closer to the top. Just put them as deep as you can same as soil.

On some plants we put them at the bottom and just enough tron to cover. Then as the plant gets taller we fill in the rest of the netpot with tron.
