Lighting 60 day Grapefruit auto, HS1+DIY, 0.12m2

25 01 (day 25 from helmet)

EC rised up to 970ppm, so i decided that it is too much, so i removed approx 2l of tea, added 2 l of tap water with 375ppm. Final EC i got was 875ppm.

28 01 (day 28)

That was not too much, after all.
Plant shows clear hunger on N and P, added 0.7l of tea i removed earlier with 925ppm, and added some more nutes:
Cellmax Hydrobloom A 5ml +B 5ml
Cellmax Flower power 10ml
AN Bud Candy 10ml
Cellmax PK booster 10ml
Final tea is pH6.0, EC 1115 ppm
Shower with 50ml distilled water + 0.2ml Plagron Vita race + 0.1ml Plagron Sugar royal

30 01 (day 30)

Shower with GHE Bioworm 1ml + 20ml of distilled water

01 02 (day 32 form helmet)

Plant still shows clear hunger on N and P (some lighter leaf tones, lowering EC of tea, rising pH) added approx. 0.8l of tea i removed earlier with 925ppm, and added some more nutes:
Cellmax Hydrobloom A 3ml +B 3ml
Cellmax Flower power 3ml
AN Bud Candy 3ml
Cellmax PK booster 3ml
GT Liquid silicone 1.5ml
Vitalink Biopac 3ml
GHE FloraKleen 5ml
Superthrive 5 drops
Hesi Supervit 1 drop
Final tea is pH5.9 EC 1130ppm

Seems like this baby has no chances in finishing everything in one month (its 60 days Grapefruit - btw :D ), but that is absolutely great, as she will grow a bit bigger. Made some more LST today and removed couple of bottom leaf, which were covering new branches. Nothing major.
Here are few photos for today.

Looking great in there man! May I ask why u don't pull the top over for training as well? I'm interested in doing a dwc run myself as it creates the fastest growth which is awesome for our autos!
 
Thank you for kind words, man. I like to grow my plants in nice shape, develop its bottom and side branches, to take all the space in that tiny box of mine. You will see - center cola will be close to lights, but wont reach them, and all side branches will dominate there. Im planning to have 30+ of colas on this plant, if everything goes right. This will be done by simply removing some fan leaf in needed places at needed time and LST. I was using bending technique earlier, but never got a results i get by using techniques i use now. And there is no difference for me now between autos and photos - everything works similar for me.
DWC really is great method. But BIO DWC is even greater thing. After you learn what to do and few mistakes, ofcourse :D

34 day from helmet

Looks like this little baby decided to turn in to hyngry monster :D Here goes my experience with her, i cant feed her enough, and that bio stuff in my dwc has made roots to go totally crazy :D

02 02
Shower with 3ml of Vitalink Foliar + 40ml of tap water, pH in the DWC tank rising.

03 02

PH of DWC is 6.0 again, added 3ml A + 3ml B of Cellmax hydrobloom, pH dropped to 5.8.

04.02

Removed another two fan leaves from center bottom. PH is again 6.0, that beast is sucking nutes like crazy, tomorrow will feed her even more. Looks like plant will be in ideal shape for this box and last "floor" of new nodes is growing, flowering will begin just soon.
These bacteria on roots are making this... :D

Topped dwc with rest of tea i made earlier and added some more nutes. It looks that there is enough of everything, but red stems says that i may add some more P. So, added 4ml of Cellmax PK booster and 10ml of Cellmax Superenzyme. Ph was 6.1 in the morning, EC was a bit lovered since yestedray, but i think this is because of these bacteria and lowered it to 5,8. Did not added any of other heavy stuff, will se in few days.
Looks like preflower ended and flowering gas begun. Most beautiful part begins :)
And these roots.. First time i see this explosive root growth, and now i am starting to understand, why grim is getting his monsters. Have bought agrobacteria, will try to add make my own bio tea for dwc with them, compost,sugar and air. Something tells me, that this will be killer stuff :) Will tell to you too, how it is going.
And here is my baby today. Totally sweet plant :) Damn these autos have their charm, do they? :)
Will give shower with GHE Bioworm today. 1.5ml Bioworm : 30ml distilled water.

10.02
That's it, no more space for vertical grow, top of the plant is burnt. Bended it on one side, removed burnt tip. Nice tree shape is lost :(
Gave her shower with Canna Biogen 0,5ml + 100ml of distilled water.

11.02 - today
Here we go. She's growing even more. Gave her first test of compost tea i made. Method of making tea was extremely easy - brewed it for 3 days in warm place with some sugar and air. Got nice clear yellow liquid, which has only weak smell (not unpleasant, btw), looked to it thru microscope and seen there lots of small organisms, quickly moving here and there :) Will see how this will work in dwc. Got ozonizer, if something goes wrong :D

And here she goes. Its day 40 :)
