Theres eighteen more days to go and the buds are starting to come together nicely, the first pic has been lightened to enable the biro to be viewed. This gives an indication of the size so far, all the buds are within 1 inch the same size.

Some ar a lot fatter though :reallyexcited:

Although you do lose yeild by only using enviro's to grow with, it seems i'm still going to get a reasonable yield.(hopefully)

The next grow i'm going to add a 400w hps to increase yield.

:thumbsup

Oh and extraction and filtering, both of which i could do with.

How often do you feed them? I'm having overwatering problems in my waterfarms [have the controller 8 pack]. Trying for 1 hr on 1 hr off... Whats working best for you?

 

Also what medium are you using besides the hydroton? Rockwool cubes? 1 "?

thanks

I'm running mine 24/7 but it is only one not 8.

I have a single airpump running the dripper ring and 2 airpumps running a toblerone shaped airstone.

This is done by using a Y connection to join both pumps airlines into one, this i then feed down the level indicator tube and into the lower tank, connecting to the airstone, or if you don't mind a bit more noise you can just use a T piece and make a tank ring out of airline. This method is ideal when the roots are established, i usually find 1 week - 10 days and they're free feeding, so they are getting lots of extra air straight to the root system. More air = more growth = bigger yields.

I did have 2 running the ring as well but found keeping the tank topped well up and using one makes it run at its optimum.

 

I'm using hydroton apart from the smallest rockwool block (1inch) for rooting the clones in.

 

Hope this helps :scratchin
