I am growing Taiga by Dutch Passion and Phatt Fruity by Barneys Farm.

I am using an NFT system that i have built myself.

I would not describe myself as an entire Newbie. I have grown on numerous occasions with mixed sucsess. The last grow i completed was Taiga, and despite the other logs i have viewed it did truely autoflower for me, on 24 too.

So, back to this grow. I have also used NFT before. It produced fantastic yields so i thought id give it another go.

I am growing out of rockwool and i am keeping the ec value (inc water value) at 1.0.

Ph is at 6.2.

Light is air cooled 250 watt HPS.

As my space is small, temps do rise to about 28 degrees.

I had an initial problem with a fluctuating ph due to not presoaking the rockwool, but this has leveled out over time.:-P

I am growing two taigas and three phatt fruits in a 20 litre tank. I intend on keeping them small to fit this space. I hope this is possible.

As the grow as progressed I have become confused. One phatty is looking ok. More vigorous. Dark green in most places. Shoots coming out. The other phattys are light green in colour indicating a nitrogen def. Why would the other be doing so well and the others not? Please can somebody help me? I have obviously included an air stone in the resevoir to oxygenate. They seem to be rooting ok.

The taigas are a week younger and are smaller. One has curled leaves but remains green and is still growing.

This must be a good grow. This is going to be a very detailed log and many pictures will be provided in order for it to be so. My camera is playing up so piccies will go up soon. Could somebody pls help me in the mean time if poss. :-P They are now up. The picture of the air pump provides ventilation from above.

I have recently discovered that the ph was indeed too high again. I dont know why it keep doing this. I have lowered it to 5.8. It was nearly 7. This may have been causing nutrient lockout right? Paticularly the Nitrogen explaining the light greeness?
 
Dude i speak the truth and will be honest with you, that grow area is a mess...


your words dude---I have grown on numerous occasions with mixed sucsess
