Thanks bro! I'll be posting pics soon. Didn't want to hijack ur thread but I'll def let u know. I'm always lookin for feedback from guys that have been in the game a little longer than me. Scribed

im pretty much a noob but im experimenting and learning every day.

so for todays update.

I drained the big wonder woman and refilled her with 5.8 phed grow big hydro at 600 ppm. bout 1.5 tsp / gal in my water.

new pix next update.

Todays update

the indica and the widow got burnt looks semi bad.. nute burn Im guessing.. they havent gotten any worse since I flushed them a couple days ago.. i'll have to be more careful I guess. new pix of the ladies..of course the wonder woman has no burns on her lol. Thats her loungin in the flowering tent today.

Updates

4/29 Fed the 3 hempies wonder woman got 700ppm indica and widow got 400 ppm of grow big hydro and big bloom phed at 5.8.

4/30 Decided to do some LST on the wonder woman. I topped her a while back and she grew out a nice pair of towers. Heres lots of pix of her. I think shes beautiful Lol

5/2 Fed the ladies. Wonder woman got 1000 ppm and the indica and widow got 600 ppm of grow big hydro and big bloom phed at 5.8. Hopefully this wasnt overfeed, but only one way to find out.

That brings me up to date.. enjoy the pix.. I trimmed up the burn on the widow and indica and they look good again.. they seem to like a bit less than the wonder woman does on the ppms.

Lookin good brother. LST looks nice and clean, that should make the girls happy!

Thanks man. not sure what im doin with the other two. They need to grow a bit more still.

Update.

5/4 the gals didnt like that last feeding.. rather than let the burn get worse I flushed em and cut them back to grow big hydro only at 475ppm.

5/5 they look fine today glad I didnt wait and let them get ugly. I have been putting them in the new flower room during the day to enjoy the hps and some other cfl lighting in there.

How often and how much are you feeding? Are you adding full strength nutes every time you water?

I feed them when the bucket gets light or dryish in the res at the bottom. As far as how much, ive been experimenting a bit to see what they can handle. I only gave them one full str and they didnt like it.. so Ive cut it back to about 1/2 str at the moment. Rather than go by 1/2 tsp etc ive been using the tds meter and going by the ppms. I post how much ppm everytime I feed. I havent tried giving them only water since they have no other source of food. Its a learning experience. I'll post some new pix next update, it sounds worse than it is I think. They actually look good

Good to hear they are doin good. The only reason i said anything is because it was recently brought to my attention that the dose amounts on the bottle are for a 1 week hydroponic cycle so if you're using hydro setup then you feed once a week and then just top off the res with water when it gets low, then change out all the water and redo the nutes for the next cycle. what this means for us hempy and soil guys is that we need to decrease the amount we give them during every feeding or we go toxic. It was news for me @ the time and i'm not 100% sure this is right but it does make sense. just food for thought. not trying to imply that you don't know what you are doing or that you are wrong. They are lookin good bro. keep it up. can't wait to see the pics.

actually what you said makes sense to me also.. I think im doing it wrong Thanks for the tip I appreciate it. Feel free to critique anything you see me doin thats wrong lol.

No prob men. like i said bro, not sure if you're doing anything wrong for sure or not. just what i heard and it makes sense. try it out and let me know how it goes, and don't forget to tip the scales happy growing bro.

How they lookin bro? Nute burn any better?

Im behind on updates as usual. They are doin fine I think. Will get updates and new pix up at some point today.

Updates and pix

5/6 watered the gals with 5.8 ph water

5/9 flushed out the buckets and fed with 500 ppm grow big hydro and big bloom.

5/11 watered the gals with 5.8 ph water

They seem to have stopped getting any further burn.. I think its gonna be time to up the ppms soon as they are gettin bigger.. that wonder woman is just nuts lol

I think im gonna build an aeroponics tub soon less work hehe
