Remember the temp of your water is directly related to it's DO saturation. I don't do flood and drain, only RDWC, and I'm running without air pumps/stones - I simply rely on the waterfall effect and the water temp. - which I keep at about 68-70, then in the last few weeks of flower I gradually...

I agree with Doug - you need at least another week. If you are feeling frisky, you can introduce some stress techniques to finish it off. In the last 48 hours of their life hit the plants with an 8/16 light schedule (8 light 16 dark) and lower the RH to ~30%. If you're using hydro, lower...

Damn. I don't know you, or anyone else around here, but I got to give you props for being open to change your mind. Too many people these days say or do something and hell or high water they will dig their heels in and refuse to budge, so it's nice to see that there are still a couple...

Someone else mentioned something that is pretty important that you may have missed. What is the PPM of your source water? If you aren't accounting for that, it could make a big difference. While your plant may not necessarily be starving, it certainly may not be getting the optimal amount of...

Not sure if someone else mentioned it, but just a little tip about ph that a lot of new growers get wrong. You absolutely do not want to constantly be micro-managing it. Only adjust when it's on the high side or low side of your range. The reason being that different nutrients are absorbed at...

Right, so as long as there is circulation, like in a RDWC setup, that O2 deprived layer would be constantly replaced by the saturated layer above it. I ditched my airstones/pumps almost 2 years ago when I built my RDWC system - it's basically a UC setup, except for in the UC systems the pump...

Thats plenty. Always keep in mind that it's the actual surface agitation that increases the rate of gas exchange between air and water, not the bubbles themselves. I basically have the same setup as you except with the ez stor squared buckets - I find that the squared buckets make for better...

If you are using a powerful exhaust fan, turn it down or get a smaller one. How many fans do you have running? Too much air will lower your rh. Do you live in a dry, arid environment like the desert or something? If so, you may consider a cheap used humidifier if the other suggestions don't work.

White widow is awesome. Never tried white lightning though - is that a cross between white widow and something else? You setting up a dwc unit? I have a rdwc tent going at the moment but I'm kind of experimenting on the side with high pressure aero, so I'm in the middle of planning out my build...

Technically it's not 100% Sativa and is considered a hybrid, you are correct - I thought it was somewhere around 80/20 but I may be wrong. All I know is that it is pretty damn potent.

Just wanted to mention that I went to overgrow and have been reading your journals. I feel like I've been following the same path as you were! Great stuff brother.

Thanks so much for all of the info Larry - I will check out overflow.com as I've never heard of it. You make some real good points about trying to keep all of the plumbing and fittings the same size - I've been going crazy trying to put together parts that all fit. Like you, I was planning on...

Wifi is a sativa Purple Urkle is an indica and I kid you not, there is nothing else like it. I know a lot of various strains claim to have a hint of berry or fruit undertones, but Purple Urkle literally has a strong grape flavor (the aftertaste actually reminds me of Fruity Pebbles cereal)...

Damn Larry that C99 sounds looks like a great producer. I don't really mess with autos or clones because I've always been of the opinion that they produce inferior product potency-wise and I'm not growing on a large enough scale anymore that necessitates having mothers and constantly cloning...

Hey Atomizer, That's awesome info - you basically answered my exact question as that mesh you got going was exactly what I was thinking. Do you mind if I ask why you use the mesh if it doesn't really assist in fanning out all the roots? You actually put the plant right in the mesh as opposed to...

Can we get pics of your setup? If you truly want some help, just be honest and open minded. How many lights do you have running? Are you growing the same strain as your HPS grows? Are you using clones? Did you switch up your nutes? Since you bought 12K worth of lights, I'm assuming you are...

sounds to me like there is something wrong - there is plenty of information all over the internet of people using HLG leds with excellent results. I would start going through all your variables one by one and trying to figure what is different from what you used to get your HPS results. You...

That's sweet Larry - especially the first pic - wow! This is what I'm going for. What was the yield on that plant? How long did you veg?

Looks great Larry. If I could give you a like I would!

If you can find the seeds somewhere look for WiFi Cake or WiFi OG - I just had some from a friend and jesus christ it is strong. Tested in a lab at 31% thc. Will be my next grow after my purple urkle is harvested - which, for me, is hands down the best tasting smoke there is.
