4 weeks old hydro should i bin???????

well heres my bluerberry clones from a friend, i have a thread started in my sig from when i started the grow and cant see why it isnt growing as fast as i was hoping i think soil was quicker! so im thinking about binning them and putting 6 in 11ltr pots in the same space and store the hydro set up for the future

If they are growing slower than soil, you have something off. Either the strain, your nutes/water, or your setup.

here is the link from when i started the grow if you want a look,, but i have already made my decision and going back to soil for the time being

Pots are too big and plants will try to fill with roots before growing. Plus it looks like a ph and ppm issue in there.

super i think im going to scrap them and go back in soil anyway m8

How far away is your light? He stunted them big time right off the hop by way overfeeding them. They are growing slow now because he is only using a 400w MH which looks to be WAY too far away from the plants!

Also, the hydroton looks wet in the pictures. How often is the feed schedule? Insufficient air to the roots will also contribute to the slow growth.

it was on whilst light were on now i have switched down to 15 mins every 45 whilst light is on,,

im thinking about unpacking it and using that as a flower room and my 3x3 as a veg...

il get sum more pics the day when i go along to it

You were watering for 18 hours straight? REALLY? You are wondering why you have had slow growth; that is your number one reason right there.

You never said how far away that MH light is yet either?

If you want to actually learn how to grow in hydro, I suggest you run the course and figure a thing or two out along the way.

next time round i will. but losing my 3 that where due down has put me in a right hole! the light was about 12inch away.....


that is gona be my flowering room now and my 3x3 as a veg room i have a couple in already

the 1st pic is the 2 best blueberry out the wilma
2nd pic is a psycho killer my m8 had in his veg room for week or 2
3rd pic dog cut been in his for couple days
and last is a psycho killer lemon pheno hes had for couple days....

if i didnt lose those 3 i could of let the hydro go and see how i got on,, but cant afford to at min so maybe hydro next year again when im back on my feet
