thizz13's stealth dwc!!!!

that's glorious!

you might wanna try side-lighting with a couple more CFLs per side, so 4 in all.

Home Depot has 120v outlet (2-prong) to medium-base (CFL-size) socket adapters for like $2

and those extension cords with 3 outlets on the female plug, you know, they have two outlets on one side, and one outlet on the other end?

grab a couple cords and 4 adapters for like $10, and some 5000k bulbs and your plants will be grand and ready for flower in no time

or they might be ready already, how tall is your box?

Blessings!!

here's some pics

It's like 16-18 inches maybe this little guy is for fun I'm searching for a location for my hps's!!!

I have about 35 cfls I could usebut right Now the box can only handle 8. I have 6 inch pc fan for fresh air, n a 4 inch extracting into my mini carbon filter I need to get it cooler

Added my ppm meter, and my ph meter

put on a small carbon filter

what do u think?

Temps 75-85
water temp 57-68
ppm 490-510
ph 5.9

Hey thizz that looks good ... how do you like the nutradip gear mine is on the way !!
From what I have learned in theory/practice, is that your PH is dialed in 100 % for your application aka deep water culture , my phenotypes grow very fast in veg in that range.
The difficulty lies in keeping it there as the nuts are consumed (without adding 2 much of stabilizers)... so constant PH is paramount.
In my case, as per the strain I grow (phenotype) the ladies hate the heat ...85 would screw them up ... I have learned the hard way.
(Please forgive me if I am telling you stuff you might already know ... I don't know your experience)
So if you can dial it constant at +/- 1 (80) that might help .... but that pertains to my strain .... and thermal dynamics in the grow room.
I also had to purchase a portable air conditioning unit to achieve this. So in a small stealth you might have no options.

Also, there is two types of heat .... ambient and radiant heat.
To have ambient at constant, through the light cycle is one thing but ... one must also take into consideration the radiation generated from the lamp used. I am taking about the distance the lamp is suspended over MJ. And this will depend on the wattage u are using at the time.

So in essence, you can have ambient temp at lets say 80 constant .... with fans going (this is good to keep the air from stagnating and for the movement of co2).... but in reality, if you set up your light to close ... the tops will get way more heat .... past the 85 mark .... effecting the growth.

Please forgive me if this tit bit is redundant as you might know this already.
I pulled up a chair and will be watching.
One more thing ... what strain are u working on here .... I would like to be able to taste it as I glance at your pics.
Cheers

Thanks puff, I'm hoping I can actually finish these out, my other hydro setups were ended short let's just say that.. I love my ppm meter!! And I'm not sure on strain just some home grown clones from a buddy I'll Do sone update pics later.. My roots are taking off and it's only been a couple days I'm so excited hope u enjoy

Current stats

water temp 61.9
temp 76.3
ppm 470
ph 5.9

new root growth I'm proud of myself it's actually working
