Good job managing the situation.
Glad to hear the diy ress worked out.
The plants are looking good and healthy.
Here are a few pics: What do you think? I think the roots should be longer but they were stalled a couple days by the problem stated in the above post. That is my water temp gauge not my cab temp. Just in case anyone was wondering.

Oh! The roots will double in size in no time!
Thanks! The roots are really looking good now since I raised the level back up. Even since I took those pics. And they all seem to be mostly white roots. I think that is in large part to the small amount of bleach that I put in the res.
I guess we found out how important the water level is in a DWC .
yea. lol. good thing we both found out early enough to save them. things are looking good on your op now. props to ya. tried to give ya some rep but i gotta spread it out some it says
Lol! I tried to rep you earlier , but I have to spread it around too.

looking good so far BluBerry you should read my grow thread from the beginning I think you might like my seedling method which i modified a touch after the first two BBG and now it is perfect for hydro no transplanting shock or hassle with worrying about putting them into veg to soon and the pics are proof the system works great anyway if you shop around you can get a shop-vac mighty mini for around 60 bucks on the high setting it will move 500cfm and pretty easy hang and modify for vent ducting also pics of this in my thread and if you need a intake fan check out the in window fans most come with temp sensors and settings for direction and easy to mount in a corner of the grow room well have a great day awesome Blossoms to all Later

Thanks for stopping in Matatan & Kid. +rep to ya both for posting. I plan on doing the scrog by leaving the res in place and draining and filling with water hose thru a drain port on the igloo. If that wont work then ill get a submerged pump and place it in the res and drain it that way. Where there is a will, there is a way!!
Ill post some pics of the water hose hookup for the drain/fill if anyone wants to see it.
Day 14:
Two weeks old today. They are really starting to look good. Extrema has a spread the width of my 5 in net pot. El Mon 1 is really perking up, she actually is a little farther along than Extrema. Once in a scrog net it really wont matter tho but for now I do comparisons between the three plants. El Mon 2 is on 2nd node while the other two are on 3rd. Came home and cab was 85 and res temp was still a steady 66. Loving the Igloo res so far. Still havent got my filter and fan ordered so my intake/exhaust is still half ass. I did hook it up to my air duct in the floor beside the cab and dropped it down to 74 with the cab door completely closed. I usually cant close the door without it raising to mid 80s. So once I get it set up properly I should be in the money with that.
