Indoor Duckster gives Wilma a go

[Eclectic Elle]

Hey Hairy how they hanging bud. In hindsight I'm thinking a 4 pot single res system may not be best for my slipshod style but WTF I had to give a go or two.

I don't measure ppm or keep an eye on the res pH, I just pH any new bucket of feed and water that goes in. Seem to be doing OK with that! There's keeping it simple and there's being a lazy fecker, guess which category I'm in LOL!

Oh yeah Sanger, Wile, Itisi, and Elle all have or do use wilmas - a host of fine growers all - I should be able to learn a little something. Stay warm bro.

That's quite the compliment to throw at me Ducks thanks man! I'm still learning, this is my fourth grow with a Wilma and I love it. Mostly I just let it get on with it and throw a bucket or two in when it gets noisy because the runoff has a long way to fall i.e the res level is very low. The guys are all way more experienced with Wilma than I am!

Subbed up Ducks! lets see what you can do with em

Make a mess - that's what I do best

Lazy fecker - that would be me. Not really, just with so much going on in my world, the simpler the better.

Don't mention it Elle. We are all "still learning". Besides, 4 Wilma grows is much better than my none!

I have an inferiority complex, but it's not a very good one.

I like simple too, but then I complicate things myself LOL. Just for the heck of it!

I shall be having more of a play with the Wilma a little later in the year. Right now I know I can do autos in it but I haven't tried photos yet. Coming soon!

Aw feck me running - it's been a month since my last update. Just been so busy that i can barely manage to keep up with the girls. I peeked in on the girls this morning and discovered the Wilma only had about 1 inch of water left. Guess that's why they were looking a bit droopy. This is not one of my better efforts. Between the age difference girls on a shared res and me not having the time to do a proper grow I'll be happy with whatever i get from this round.

I did a complete res change about a month ago. Since then, once a week I top off with 6-7 gal of RO water and then add nutes. Was planning on doing that today but after adding the RO water the ppm was above 700. Thought that would be way too high after I added nutes, so I pumped out as much as i could and then added 8 gal of RO and the ppm is now about 200 but will be higher after I add my bloom blend. and now a few sorrowful pics.

Cheese day 54 Loving the extra head space in the tent. She's only 39" but that would be a struggle in the cab. Her buds are stacking up but she got a def but not sure what. Some of he leaves are a bit crispy but not sure if that is part of the def or from lack of water for a couple of days. Did not seem to affect the other two though.

Hinesburg Special day 48 I guess this one is doing ok considering the large knot at the base of her stem

Triangle Kush day 39 Finally starting to get a bit of growth out of this one but i doubt she will provide much yield.

The seedlings in the 4th Wilma pot and in the soil pot both bit the dust. Oh well.
Ta for now Thanks for stopping in.

I think theyre doing pretty good duck! Especially with 2 weeks age difference.

It is what it is - something is better than nothing eh. Hoping to have my semi-retirement (HA) job workload down to a dull roar before I start my next Wilma grow. Maybe i could pay better attention to the girls. Dude I been meaning to ask you for the Wilma feed schedule tha @Eclectic Elle mentioned.

Heres my old beat up schedule if you can read it!

Those measurements are ml per 10 litres of water.
