2nd go at DWC, 4 1/2 weeks into veg, critique plz!

**FENG8890** · 10-21-2010, 12:00 PM

This is our 2nd try at DWC hydro. Our first crop turned out to all be males (boo), so here we go again!

We use Stealth Hydro Nutes (anyone know of better nutes? We haven't been happy with ours), 4 27-watt 5,000k CFL daylight bulbs right now just for veg & we've also been adding some hydrogen peroxide every now & then to get some extra O2 to the roots & spritzing the underside of the leaves with carbonated water to get them some CO2.

These plants are about 4 1/2 weeks into veg. We're thinking of waiting 6 weeks to start flowering, but what is everyone else' opinion?

Is there more we could be doing?--Doing differently?--Do they look decent so far? Critiques MORE than welcome!

I use General Hydroponics, I will be switching to Canna's nutrient line as I've had great success with some of their products

do Canna nutes come in powder or liquid form? Stealth Hydro uses powder, which works fine for the PH Up & Bloom they give us in a jar, but for some reason the PH Down & Grow nutes that came with our order came in plastic baggies. I guess moisture got in the baggies somehow, even though we sealed them after each use, because now it's turned into this paste & I don't want to even use it on the plants anymore. I think I want to try liquid nutes...
how does everyone think they look for 4 1/2 weeks into veg, though? We actually decided on doing 8 weeks veg before flowering...
