600W C99 Organic Scrog

different countries, does make it more difficult to work some problems out

so the tap water not any good but, have you got a few diffent types of bottle water to pick from ?

have you got a ph pen ?

say there's 4 diffent bottle of water to pick from, the ph could be diffent in every bottle
so 1 bottle may have a ph of 6.7 and another bottle 7.5

so the bottle with 6.7 would be great without nutes and the water thats 7.5 would be good, when add nutes as the nutes could bring it down to 6.5

so you control the ph, by using diffent bottle of water,

no you control the ph with ph up solution and ph down solution.Your water can be any ph as long as you adjust it.You can also use the homemade version of up and down
.Baking soda -up and vinegar -down.Thats what i do,works a charm.Although i only do 1 or 2 a time so it's easy for me.If you got a hydro system going youd better just get the up and down solution.

hi puffdatchronic
his tap water is no good and wants to keep this grow orgainc so looking as diffent ways of doing this

all non orgainc grows will contrall there ph just the way you say,
look at this list and you may get what I am trying to say

http://phconnection.com/Bottled_Water_pH_List.html

start with a higher ph 7.2 to 7.6 and after adding nutes it could bring the ph down to 6.5-6.9

Well I was hoping they would need water last night but after the finger test I think they still have about 2 to 3 more days. Wednesday night will have been a week since I lasted watered. Im off to work to my rig in Nowhere, New Mexico for 7 days where my phone hardly works. Ill be back home in Texas on New Years Eve. This will be my GF/weedsitter's first test. I told her how to do the moisture test with her finger so we will see how she does.. Wish her luck.. Now sadly the last pictures you will see for a week lol..
I had to name them sooo..

Goodluck girl .

good luck girl

Well I forgot that I can post pictures from my phone with the RIU app. Thanks to my fantastic chick y'all won't have to wait 7 days They got a watering of plain distilled today. As far as types of water goes I like distilled cause I know its gonna be around a 7. Go box directions say not to adjust ph. I have 2 tablespoons of lime per gallon in the soil so it should be pretty stable. I do have a ph and ppm meter though and when I mix my first batch of nutes I will ph it. If its way low, like a 5, I'll bring it up. I have the organic ph up and down. I think its called earth juice but I can't remember for sure. My two little ladies are doing good. Still small but healthy and that is what matters right now..

I cant believe how small they still are for almost day 20. With no signs of def. or burn

Tell me about it.. I have faith in them though. As long as they keep showing me progress and no signs of problems I'll baby the shit out of them.. On a side note.. Anyone that has to be away from their plants on a regular basis should check out a Dropcam. Its a $150 wireless camera designed for smart phones. Just plug it in, register it with your router, download the app, and you can see a clear picture of your plants at all times. I'm going to mount it to my oscillating fan when I get home..

Oh and just to throw it out there... I only smoke maybe twice a month. I have to worry about drug tests in my line of work and as much as I love smoking I have bills. So you can say I'm a responsible pot head lol.. It would be cheaper to buy weed than to grow it. This is just a hobby for me so I'm not really worried about how long it takes. That's why I'm not freaking about their size.

it is an addictive hobby isn't it.

sorry I have not been on, had a lot of famly round for christmas
your plant looking good and slow growth is down to low light

you could use a single t5 tube and have it just the right distance from plant, it will not strech, but will grow very slow

Very addictive!! I have a 4 bulb 4ft t5 fixture about 3" above them. They have really picked up the pace after their watering Wednesday. Looks like I have 4 nodes as of today and am starting to get shoots in between nodes. They have almost started to grow out of my Dropcam screen. Growing like weeds

Well it looks like my oscillating fan crapped out on me. By the time my gf can get to them (tomorrow night) it will have been 3 days without air circulation.. Should be ok but ughh. Poor babies

I'm sure theyll be ok..Yours are speeding up now then?

Another grow i"ll be following. My C-99 though is from Mosca Seeds "Cinderella 99 BX-1" 10 reg seeds. so who knows if i'll get a female, just half to wait and see.

Well as promised they have grown As to why they were so slow or stunted I still have no idea but screw it. They are still green as can be so nutes till their next feeding.. What do yall think?

ADAM & Cola.. Are your c99s slow too?

lookin good ,love the leaf serrations...hope mine looks like that!

Dude, mine is slow as hell. from previous grows i don't remember it taking this long to get going. But today I got my new tent and I'm running both of my 2ft 4 tube t5's at this momment so I'm hoping growth picks up. And once roots get below the net pot and hit some water i know this plant is going to sky rocket, I just need to be patient. I'm probably 12 days behind yours. You will see the difference in growth from soil to DWC. The difference is astounding. i'll throw up a journal myself in a few days when there is something to actually write about.

They look realy good, the nodes are close and the plant is green ( no signs of stress ).
plants need very little air flow at this stage,

keep up the good work
