Lighting 1st DWC grow, BAM by Pal

[Pal23]

Added 15ML of A+B, EC now reads 1.8, I hope you're right Vira! : I'm ordering the cleaning kit along with Canna Start and some Silica so I know I'm equipped for the next grow :smokebuds:

yup 15ml was i minimun guess dude ...

I JUST made a res for my mishmash as Im having probs & it needed doing ffs ....I put 40ml into 18L in the end . So say thats 35ml/15L .... you will have 25ml/13L (theoretically !)... Try it & see Pal ? ,and get a decent meter bro ... there all you have to rely on & the most important bit of kit you have :

I dunno why I didn't think to get it cleaned/calibrated after the PH pen issue..it's always the little things that get ya. I'll see hows she's looking by the time the delivery gets here, might not be worth keeping her if I do a fresh grow with the Canna Start and perfectly calibrated equipment..hoping everything arrives asap but who knows, could be friday knowing my luck! I'll keep you updated on what happens to her at *1.8 ec*

bud ,if you check my noob thread at the start of the 1st BM grow .I had the exact same problem & worked it out when Kush N Ko said my vegga amounts sounded low .... I got the bluelab & my old meter was reading twice as high so after the supps it was reading nearly the EC i wanted (just like you now) I had no room left for the vegga after the supps ... The Meter was the problem & the rest is history dude iggy Hug:

Glad I'm not the only one bro :High 5: Problems like I'm having right now would probably put people off ever trying DWC again but I'm not one to give up or be deterred, it's more like motivation to keep pushing my skills til I get it right, and I will get it right..eventually : Can't thank you enough for continuing to look out for me bro, gonna hit you with some rep just for bein there! :smokebuds:

Like Dub said ..if it was easy would we want to grow ? ! ...& you gotta go through it all once to know for yourself !. Your getting all the learning in quick ha :stylez rasta smoke:best way to go mate :smokebuds:

Day 21

Hey all, start of week 3 today. Woke up and took the PH down from 5.9 to 5.7. The smaller undergrowth was starting to push out so I've done some leaf tucking to let the light in today, looks a lot better for the boost in EC, possibly looks like she could take more still?? (Vira that's where I need your advice today anyways heres some pics from just now.

she looks better than yesterday already mate :smokebuds:If you want to up it more just go no more than 5ml each & wait . as im on 35ml now I doubt you will need more than 30ml total ?. ...she might handle 35 in a few days but see how another 5ml of each effects her 1st Pal :High 5:If you can get her roughly in the zone until you get your meter calibrated she may well bounce back & turn out great ?:stylez rasta smoke:

Exactly what I was thinking bro, but you just said it better than my brain. I'll go add the 5ml and will probably update again tonight if I see a change..first hydro attempt - it's all fun and games
