Very nice setup. I run T5HO in combination with T8 Kitchen/Bath.

Looks like once you get your growing solution down you will have a fantastic setup.

Good luck have fun!

Soil is so much more forgiving than Hydro. I am clueless on Hydro with the exception of an Areo Cloner. You have great roots but it looks like you have heat or nute issues. I can help with the heat but have no experience with the soluition for DWC.

How are you exhausting the hot air from the room.

Oh and the corners I was like WTF also.

Bonzi......yeah we willl see how my soil babies go.....Yeah def not a nute issues...all the pics prior to adding any nutes... I had a major heat issue both with the room and water temps... I was totally excpecting my big light to give off heat like a cfl..... So they hit like almost 7 days and just kinda stopped....The roots on the Shortrider in the DWC are looking great....compared to the Master Kush seeds that were in the bubbleponics....but the Short rider are auto......so I have no clue how those reallly work......

Ahhhh ventalation....honestly the part I unfortunately spent the least amount of time researching and planning for..... At the moment I have rigged up 2 diffrent fans one ducted in and one out not sure if thats sufficent but at the moment my temps are alot better Im fluctuating between 77-72 at the moment...I also am working on my own CO2 thing as well.


Hoping they get going soon lol..... and eager to test out some in soil.....

There are good arguments on both sides, I'm sure you have read them. It's really a matter of personal preference, but pick one and stick to it.

I look at growing as mathematical equations with variables and constants. Stability is the key. You have alot of variables in your grow, I would not worry about CO2 on this grow and concentrate on stabilizing the environment, turn the variables to constants and then you can make small adjustment to "Dial it in".

Mothers are like that.... yeah they are. <<<<<< Think about this

Here is some bud pron to spur you on:

Sweet, they look great! roots are flourishing. how do you measure ppm? or do you? will that wool just dissolve in the hydroton?

great job miss.. I just made an update .. soil though.

looks like you figured out your problems.the babies look alot better.looks like a minor nute prob.other than that everythings goin good.ive smoked both strains grown from soil and they are outstanding highs.the MK is one of my favorites.it will grow quick when conditions are good.nice picks you should check out the AURORA INDICA,one of the dankest plants ive ever grown,knock-down one hitter shit.GL!

I agree with bluesdad, you may have a nute issue with the spotty leaves. I am not sure, but I believe you can find a thread on over or under nute issues. gawd knows you can find about anything else, aint it great!

They do look to have great structure other wise.
