So i opened the tent today and i had to have a double take. The top i smapped off has recoverd over night and is mow 2 tops thriving , ill post pics soon
Indoor Northern Lights Blue Auto-Waterfarm-LED
- Thread starter Smokechoke
- Start date
Day 43Noticed that my ppm went up, i guess between the roots sucking up water and whatever nute mix was left in the hydroton it was at about 250 ppm with about 1.25 gallons of water out of 2 still left in the res. needless to say i changed the water today with just plain phd tap water,the leaves of the undergrowth on the bottom most part of the plant seems to be a very light shade of green and getting crispy while curling in on them selves even with just phd water for a couple of days now... Any ways i plan on hitting it with 3/4 strength bloom nutes and a 1/4 strength grow and some cal mag to keep it simple and see how she does next week when im done with this flush.
About the accidental decapitation of Northern Lights Blue Automatic.
Turns out she recoverd remarkably fast and not only is their two main colas there is three. Have a look see tell me what you think? I believe that this was a blessing in disguise due to the fact that im clearly limited on space.BUT at this point im pretty sure this plant is being stressed quite hard. Heavy nutes to no nutes at all, (besides whats left in the hydroton thatbhasnt dripped through right away) then the topping,plus the dying leaves on the bottom. Does anyone have any suggestions or is it as simmple as me just cutting the shit and being responsible and careful??

Well happy 4/20 everyone
I started some LST today and there is much more light getting to places it needs to be. I took an 1/8inch bit and drilled wholes in the grow chamber. 3 to a side and one in each corner. I gave her a res change but this time i used spring water rather than tap water to see if that helps the dying leaves issue. Since flushing, the sickness has slowed to a crawl but is still relevant. Any ways she got a dose of half strength Flora Gro, then i gave it 3/4 strength Flora Micro and Flora Bloom. She also got a full dose of Cal-Mag.Running my PH at 5.8 and my TDS is right about 1000ppm All i can say, this girl is a bush !! Soooo short and stalky very very bushy which is fine with me, im about a week away from being half way and i couldnt be more happy. I cant wait to see how things play out from here, does anyone have any advice? What should i be doing that im not? How can i improve my set up??

Every branch i tide down is now in a full blown search for sun and every one of them are already pointing up again over night. Is it okay for air stone to sit directly underneath my root mass so long as the bubbles arent our of control? Which they arent there very fine and tiny bubbles it looks beneficial lol dono if it is. But, any ways ph is at 5.8 ppm just under 1000. Today ill add my other set of cfls just for kicks, hope it doesnt make my temps skyrocket i no it may look a little jerry rigged ( no offense to any jerrys out there) but shes gettong bombarded with light now and hopefully from here on out. Well see

Fyi i now hav two 2700k 23w cfls and i have two 5000k 23w bulbs
Day 47
Ever since changing my res with bottled water from the store i havent had to adjust my ph once. It has stayed steady @ 5.8. Shes drinking a good amount of water now and growth doesnt seem to be slowing.. I took her out of the tent shes exactly 12 inches tall and 22 inches wide from leave tip to leave tip. What i thought was going to be three colas is more likely going to be two solid ones and a slacker. One of them is becoming dominant and grew about 1/2 inch taller than the others so well see how it goes..walked into my room yesterdy and i had a fruity but dank smell hit me in the shnozz and it caught me off gaurd. At first i said to my self " no,cant be?" But sure enough i stuck my face in the tent and yup. It was her alriight. Reeking of of deliciousness. Its starting to get a litle more exciting as i see more and more hairs everywhere i hope shell groe atlest another 6 to 8 inches taller that would be prime hight for my set up
