    high humidity is good for till plants about 16" then u wanna start bringing it down so its pretty dry else might mould your buds - loads of time to work it out

    if u running a resi heater make sure no light gets in - with nuted up warm resi bactia loves to grow if any light gets in, so run airstones 24/7 - whilst roots would like tepid water its an added risk from disease like root rot or pests oh and bacteria that might be growing - so i think most growers (myself inc) keep resi safe side of cool (60 for me - warms in pipes a bit too when flooding)


    anyway cant wait to see some pics of your girls mr G

    gl dude

    More great advice! Thanks so much man, I didnt know about covering the res, just did that. The bubbler has been going 24/7 too
    And a big relief about the humidity, I got lots of time to handle that one

    nice seedling pics dude - those nodes look gr8 - close together

    when u gonna pot them? what nutes and extras u using?

    im researching nutes at mo - + cannazyme, nutrazyme, h2o2, - at mo i using all 3 nutrazyme promotes strong veg - cannazyme keeps roots clean - breaks down dead stuff and h2o2 low strength adds o2 to roots once a week strong strength flushes pipes, sezi and cleans roots

    at mo am in research mode - no conclutions as yet will keep u posted (i am sure u have a way to keep your system clean)

    keep it up bro

    Thanks buddwasher, they look pretty good, no major stress yet and the roots look great!

    I'm debating weather or not to put them in to mesh bottom pots or just let them hang out in the cubes surrounded by the clay balls, also debating adding some grow cubes to the clay once they get a little bigger to retain just a little more water, not right now as I think they were over watered before I got em.

    Ah yes NUTES!
    That is next on my research list, I have done a little so far just to figure out what they want right now.
    Right now they have a 1/2 strength Liquid Karma diet and a dash of Great White Shark for rooting.
    I have a ton of nutes that came with the set up and some more handed down to me.
    I will probably be using GH Gro, Bloom, and Micro since it was I have the most of, over a gallon of each.
    I also have, GH FloraNova, Kool Bloom(2-45-2, Mad Farmer MOAB (Mother of all Blooms-1-52-2, Fox Farms Tiger Bloom (2-8-4), Dr Hornby Big Bud (10-40-7), Spray n Grow Micronutrient Complex and a bunch of different ph downs
    So I gotta research what I have and see where and when to use it, if I use it.
    I am a cheap skate so to keep the roots good and clean I am thinking of the 6 drops of bleach per gallon since most of my nutes are non-organic, the h2o2 is pricey and works better with organic nutes I hear.
    If you stumble across any of the nutes I have in your research please let me know.

    I checked out your pics, your plants are looking great! Cant wait till I am at that point!
    Great job man

    yeah i dont know enough about nutes - so much too learn, fortunately have bumped into old m8 who is in the nute industry so i hope to gleen all the knowledge i can from him - will cost me alot of beer money

    h2o2 is hydrogen peroxide ~(hair bleech) so it cheap - only buy the 35% strength stuff and if u really wanna save some cash buy it from a hair dressor i pay about $2 per litre

    as i use some nutes with enzymes in them i have to be careful - so when i rezi flush i then do one flood with just water and h2o2 - wait an hour and add nutes

    gonna be several months b4 i really know my nutes set up and timing - but its good fun learning

    thanx for looking at my grow, i put some new pics up today

    and as for placing empty cubes in buckets with clay balls - i see your reasoning never heard it done b4 - i been advised if i want to increase amount of water held to add something like perlite or vermaculite to clay ball mix

    but tbh i am happy with just clay balls - my 1st grow used perlite on its own succesfully - i think what ever u go with they all work real well - i would put a new post up asking for advise on this idea incase we missing some obvious downside

    and mesh bottoms - they trying to sell them to me too for my next grow - dont think i will bother as like u i am a cheap skate lol

    keep it going dude
