First time grower using DWC Cab

It would be nice to get some advice from novice growers. I am concerned about how and when to top and the best ways to get good results while flowering.

check out my journal.. i would say top above the 3rd node once it gets to 5 - 6 nodes.. it seems like your cutting off a lot but it comes back super fast. this should leave you with six tops and scrog that shit out. its not hard, all my tops look excellent with the same lighting. advice on how much undergrowth and fan leaves to trim on this site is very opinionated in both directions so do what you want. i like to follow the getting scroggy videos on budbook that guy is awesome.

DWC is deep water culture hydro

People are helping, The above is good advise. Check out uncle bucks topping tutorial thread, search for it, very good information there. Also if you have specific questions, ask them. Many people are going to look at the pics and with no clear questions all the input you will get is. "good grow, peace" etc etc.

Welcome to RIU.

yeah what are you talking about man? I answered the only question you posted but i can tell you whatever you need to know, although it would be easier to check the journal. And its my first time through so i dont know how you get more novice.

and thanks bats

how old are your plants? nice set up.

yeah i'm dribbling

Love the look of that mate, job well done

Will be keeping an eye on your journal.

this forum is starting to suck. no info from novice growers, nada. whats the point of having this site if nobody responds. I'm starting to regret joining this forum i thought it was one of the better ones.......guess not

i liked this post because it sounded great ... dosing you girls with some BBBBBLAST... however i have no clue what you've given them LOL.. i might be on my own with this one but here goes

who makes it
what is it
how much is it
and what is it for ...LOL i'm guessing its a nute... additive of some sorts...

and BBC ... yeah a little searching goes a long way, but having the right people following your thread is often enough to sort most problems out, and much more friendly then the good old look it up for yourself routine...

i do often browse through past threads relating to problems i might be facing.... and thats why this site stands out from the rest .... plenty of people have been there before and documented it here... we are truly lucky growers

how big is your grow space and how long you plan to veg them for? will you keep all 8 plants in that space for flowering?

same base size of mine... 3's enough mate, my cab is full with three

some new pics.



I have switched them to 400w hps and 20/4 light.

high man, hopefully you're still around, ...if so is there any chance you could post up some construction shots of that cab? ...or if you didn't take them maybe some close looks at how it's put together? ...especially intake and exhaust holes?...i have a friend who has a similar metal cabinet and likes your mods and would really appreciate any help you can give on how you put it together and how well it's working in relation to your expectations.

thanks in advance, bozo
