Long time no see AFN fam.
Life has been CRAZY busy. Juggling WAY too many things lately. Sorry for the lack of updates.
The bucket style Ebb n Flow system I made is working GREAT. It's given me NO PROBLEMS whatsoever.
I also built the Window AC unit Water Chiller. It's keeping the reservoir at a STEADY 68F and Barely runs.
Dropped the cooling coil from the AC in a 5 gallon bucket. I bought some stainless steel tubing from a brewing supply store and made my own cooling coil.
I have the stainless steel cooling coil in the reservoir, and a 500gph pump circulating water through it from the 5 gallon bucket where the AC cooling coil is.
I just put the thermostat from the AC unit in the 5 gallon bucket and it works perfect. No need for a digital thermostat.
I'll get some pictures up of that soon. It's SOOOO easy, I recommend it to anyone looking for a chiller.
I have to say, Auto Extreme is a CRAZY plant. I'm at 63 days and I could harvest right now with a pretty good haul.
Think Different has NEVER flowered this fast. If these plants keep on going to 90 days they will be MASSIVE.
Compared to think different, Auto Extreme is a light feeder in my experience. I'm running right at 1.0 EC / 500ppm.
I've tried pushing the EC to 1.1-1.2 and the plants HATED it.
VERY easy strain to grow. So far the buds aren't quite as dense as TD, but the smell is better, and the buds are FROSTY.

DAY-63
Your dead on about the lite feeding. I've burned the hell out of my extreme. She's in with all the other ones. I've sampled some and i think you'll enjoy her a lot. Real heady with a nice body buzz. Grow looks amazing tav!
