Sorry for the delay. Hygrozyme, pricey at 500 bucks for 20 liters but you use 8ml per dose or something like that. Google it and it will take you to their web site. Seems like it is a must have for hydro. Completely compatible with any nutes and h2o2. This stuff eats up decaying plant matter.

Sounds like I am in the clear, I have a small bottle of hygrozyme I bought at the hydro store early in the grow for $20 "suggested by the seller" and have been using it since mid-through the flowering stage so I'm glad I had it and didn't even realize I was fixing the problem! You can get their stuff at hygrozyme.com!

How much do you expect to yield for the six cup kit? I'm thinking about getting two kits to get 12 but your grow looks like to be more what Im looking for.

Also why did you put three seeds in each rockwool? Thanks for the help. Im just trying to get the maximum yield for each kit. Any suggestions?

When I started out I was such a grow noob I looked at the instructions the company had an example for doing cilantro in rockwool and had placed multiple seeds in one piece of rockwool. At the time I thought this was ingenius and would be able to fit tons more plants and later realized I made a grow noob mistake and wasted a bunch of seeds cuz not all the plants could fit under the light and some outgrew others. How much do I expect to yield of the 6 cup kit? Do you mean when its full? I have no idea really on an expectation of yield on my 3 existing plants as of now. I am hoping for a couple ounces hopefully off the forbidden fruint and even more since I have 2 plants of the mystery. Right now I do have 2 plants growing out of one single cube which are the mystery weed plants and both have grown almost conistently the same and have been near the same size the entire time. The problem with this is that they both being next to eachother in the same cube take up eachothers light, I had to train them both with mini-bungee cords to get them into their own light. The only advantage of me putting extra seeds in was a process of elimination where I was able to cut out all the slow growers and keep all my strongest growing genetics as the main plants in the cubes. By the end of the first month I had cut the plants down to one in each cube except the mystery weed that I kept two in because they were both so big. If you are thinking about getting a stealth hydro kit like this you need to space out your pods a bit more for the plants, you should really make it yourself. You should start your first grow with a couple plants, its hard to concentrate on a ton your first time, its much easier to be able to tame 3-4 plants. If you want maximum yield its all about genetics in my opinion, find the best kind of strain for your grow area, and your own tastes and you'll be set!

FLOWERING Update:

Day 63

This week forbidden fruit is the main feature as she is my big budder and the mystery weed plants are just taking their time, I will be doing another feature for mystery weed as the twin plants of her go. This week forbidden fruit has been getting really bulky really fast and I think a lot is due to the change of nutrients which seems to be doing a lot to help both of the plants after all the yellowing that happened on the stealth hydro nutrients. The forbidden fruit never yellowed that bad in the first place, my mystery weed is worse for wares. The pistils have started going orange and the stems are so bulky I had to tie them up with string to support the bud weight now, I think she is ready for harvest in about a week to two weeks. My problem now is that I want to do a flush but have all 3 plants in the same resevoir with the roots entangled and am trying to figure out if I can do some small flush like getting some clean R/O water and I had heard about clearex, taking out the nutrients, running the R/O water for 1-2 days to let the forbidden fruit clean up a bit and then harvesting (would this work?). I know you "can" just go to the end feeding a plant nutrients but I've heard its better to flush, what solutions do I have here? Mystery weed wont be done for at least another month and I can't leave forbidden fruit in there that long. Suggestions?

Enjoy this weeks bud pics!

i like how them nugs are lookin on that forbidden fruit, gettin a lil frosty...

ChroniComedian · #57 05-28-2008, 08:31 PM

Thanks, I am thinking about harvesting her really soon, am still wondering about how to do an early flush with her in the same resevoir as the other plants, anyone?

JordanTheGreat · #58 05-29-2008, 12:05 PM

depends on how much earlier u wanna harvest... you could flush once, pull the fruit. feed the other one and then flush that one when its time to go...but that will only work if your harvesting schedules allow enough time for that
