Indoor Dale's 3x3 with marshydro FC-3000

[Lil Dab]

Alrighty then folks just finished up my first run with the FC-3000 and I loved it so why not do it again.... Cleaned and sanitized tent, light, fans, irrigation system, and got everything ready to go yesterday... Got everything put back together and dropped beans in seed soak WK 1 diluted to 150-200 ppm then 1 gram kelp added ph 5.9 (calibrated ph meter).. Let beans soak for about 2 hrs while flushing coco and prepping everything else then straight to their final homes 3 gallon coda core series grow bags.. Also added pot poppers to pots for preventive measures



I had coco already buffering in week 1 solution here is my complete slated schedule for this run subject to change though... I have pretty copied MOG latest schedule +50 ppm Calcium & -25 potassium for coco BUT I am using RO only and also hope to do this run without any added cal-mag I also plan to add the missing bennies very soon order will be going in

Got the lighting set for germination running 24/0 25-30% @ 24" from pots

Now here is your starting lineup Night Owl Mango Mrr, Mutant Genetics Granite Haze, Mephisto Forum Stomper, Fastbuds Cherry Cola, and a bonus Mephisto Sour Stomper that is going in a solo cup in it's own grow

Well unfortunately the first bean did not germ not sure what happened bean hadn't done anything I really wanted to try this one again so I dropped my last one in a warm seed soak last night. I put seed in seed scuffing tube first then soaked for 3 hrs into the final home that I flushed again also using a humidity dome this time may have not had enough moisture the first time

Whole tent Day 2 almost 3 Lookin good nothing to report I suspect CC should be up tomorrow if not Monday

 

[Lil Dab]

Completely forgot to update But the second Cherry Cola germinated she was up on monday so i removed the dome and she got some feed <200ppm wk1 to just slight runoff then I left her till today which pot seemed pretty light again so I feed the girls again 200 ppm wk1 ph 5.85..Looking good so far

11/9/22 Day 3

 

[Lil Dab]

The rest of the gang is looking good not much to report feeding to 20% runoff every other day <200ppm ph 5.8 wk1.. I am going to get the rez setup for them tomorrow and starting getting them automated by the weekend No change in lighting yet they look to be getting plenty for now no stretching

Well update time been busy getting rez and irrigation system cleaned and setup. Which i am ready think i will turn on so for now girl will get feed 1 maybe 2 times a day for 15 min using .5 gph drip emitters that should give 1l feed per pot (stoner testing) which also is what it has been taking get 10-20% runoff when I feed so we should be good to go girls still getting 200ppm ph 5.85


Girls are staying real short and squatty so I have been raising the light up I am at 30" from the pot now at 30% ish still running 24/0 but will switch to 18/6 in a couple days

Temps and rh have been good thinking I will remove the humidifier once I go 18/6 it is getting old keeping it full and I haven't need one in the past once girls get old enough

So I ran into a little issue completely overlooked having 4 flora flex caps on the ez-pz trays was going to be too wide and they would overlap.. So I ended modify them to fit my 3 gallon grow bags... used a torch and a razor bade heat the blade up glowing with propane torch and cut right through like butter Now they fit perfect and I can train to the side of the bags when the time comes

 

[Lil Dab]

Girls are doin good today was start of week 3ish so that meant rez change and I'll start my weekly mini flushes... Girls got wk3-5 <300 ppm with bennies to >20% runoff I'll wait till tomorrow till turn irrigation back on after mini flush and since their still kind of young...

I left the light where it was as far as height girls seem to be happy but I was ready to switch them to 18/6 and when I did that I turned dimmer up to 50% so now they are getting right around 300 ppfd at the canopy Temps have been pretty low so turning up the light will help with that hoping I don't need to move driver back in the tent but might be needed for late winter

Not much to report right now thanks for stopping by everyone
