Here's my little Purple Kush a couple of weeks into 12/12, just starting to form little budlets..

Some of you may recall that I also has a Freedom Kush in that little Flood and Drain tray, but there just wasn't room for it to thrive, so I got creative and rigged up a hanging basket for it, and put it into my 4x4 tent. I put it on my drip system with one emitter, and it drains back into my regular DTW system.

Aside from the sometimes dark humor, here's a shot of the setup I'm using. Mars Hydro TS1000 on left and TS600 angled on the right. I've been dicking around with the distances a bit to try to find the right amount for the smaller plant. They're both full out now at about 18" from the top. I'm having a lot of fun with this grow. The basil was older when I got it so it's flowering as well.

I've been keeping plants in solocups for a majority of veg now. I've learned you need to feed and water more often. Sometimes water 2 times a day.

Yeah once a day doesn’t seem to cut the mustard. I moved mine closer to the tubular heater and woke to find this sorry sight.

Now I bottom feed during the morning then do 50-100ml on top before I go to bed. Also keep her in the sun for a few hours. Seems to be enough for now but I don’t know if I can water more often.

Might try and make my own water spike for the night time? May work.

It's looking good! I find I need to lean on fish emulsion a lot more with solo cups in veg.

Had the EC at about .65 and recently raised it to about .9. Had to back it off earlier after noticing some slight burn. It's a work in progress for sure. She was just fed this morning with the new amount so this'll be a good test. Still using MC single use.
