Bumpy bump

hi Stev

I currently use a wilma 4. I have 4 3ft tall plants that are 25 days into flowering using 3x3 rockwool cubes inserted into Hydroton clay pebbles.

At 1 week into flowering i was feeding for 15mins every 2.5hours


Now i am feeding 15mins every hour on the hour.

I also run 3 feeds during the dark cycle.



I use CANNA AQUA FULL LINE UP current EC1.2 during flowering MAXED out at 1.6EC pH5.7




Link to my journal if you want some help i explain everything in there.

Im unsure of your nutes as i dont use them

It all depends how your RES is coping with everything.

Do you monitor your RES levels?

I monitor mine daily checking for increases/decreases in the RES EC and pH ready for my next res top up or res change.

I monitor by checking the EC, If the EC decreases by more than 0.2EC then i top up or do a res change with 0.2EC higher than the last time.

If the EC increases by more than 0.2EC then i top up or do a res change with 0.2EC lower than the last time.

IF your EC increases then your pH will Drop so this too needs accounting for.
If your EC decrease then your pH will rise so this needs to be accounted for.


Check out my journal link as it may explain a little more about how im running this system (it is my first time using the wilma and a hydro system) But i have a few grows under my belt and i never stop reading magazines like URBAN GARDEN MAGAZINE and other articles online.

As long as you keep control of your RES levels you COULD run this system 24/7.
