Temps in the low 70's, ppm 450, PH 5.8

Roots have made an appearance at the bottom of the pot so will hopefully be able to remove the top feed tube soon and get rid of the water pump.

I might have topped early but I do have 2 sets of growth nodes coming through, I figured it's worth the risk with such rapid veg growth with DWC setups

Hopefully man. I’m planning on taking clones from this grow, moving to a bigger tent and increasing to up to 4 plants with the 2 lights.

Plan is to try and get up to .5g+/w with a combo of plant training and dwc but I don’t know how ambitious this is with such low end lights.

Nobody seems to have a good sample size on results given experienced growers usually invest in cob or hps setups
I think .5 grams/watt is attainable. I've done a couple grows in soil with similar lights and was almost there. Doing my first DWC grow right now with those same lights, but it's a lower yielding strain so it's looking like a similar yield. I'll know for sure in about 2-3 weeks. :bigjoint:

Doing a little maintenance so thought I would take a look at the roots, apart from stains from the hydroton everything is looking good.

Some interesting growth where I topped the plant, hopefully I've set up for 4 nice clean cola's. Plant is looking extremely healthy so far, really couldn't be happier with the move to hydro.

Topped up the water, ph sitting at 5.8, PPM 450

Day 15 of White Widow

Will be adding the second light tomorrow, excellent growth from the topping sites. If I wasn't under time restraints I would top again at all 4 sites but I don't want to lose another week of veg time.

Will just be topping the top 2 sites and will flip once the new growth kicks in later in the week.

Day 16

Now have ~270w of blurple being pulled from the wall in a 2 x 2 tent giving me 65+w/sq ft

Also see the 3 topping sites, I never thought I would be topping twice in the first 15 days of a grow!

Will do a res change today - bring it up to around 700 ppm and keep it at 5.5-6 PH

Will flip by day 21

PPM settled on 810 and PH of 5.9

The plant is also about 6" closer to the lights after moving to a 5gal res from a 2gal, still no signs of having to back away so all good!
