Hey ducks, dug out a few pics from my 1st grow with the wilma.

1 plant had been harvested at this point, on the right at the bottom you can see the roots growing along the drainage channel.

^this one was obscured by the front plants till harvest, nice surprise eh?

Are the roots that vertical line of white below the green pole?

Thats them, pretty much fills the channel.

The green pole is a heater, the joys of loft growing in England.

Interesting looking heater. No need for heaters in my neck of the woods.

Ok so a bit of a problem this morning. The chees has been leaning on the walter white causing her to tip up against the far cab wall. This morning she was pushed over where her net pot kept falling through the top of the res. I straightened and tied the cheese upright. Then I wacked off about 10% those stringy buds from right side of the cheese. Then I had to harvest most of the biggest best developed buds from the walter white. Then I was able to pull her out of the res. straighten and tie her upright. I know that it's only for a few more days but I did not have time to do any more of the harvest today.

A few pics
Both girls after I had finished hacking, straightening, and tying. Still have lots of chopping left to do.

A 149g wet weight for the buds I took off the walter white. Those are drying in paper bags. Also have 2 small and 2 large bins of trim and stringy buds from the cheese air drying in the bottom of the cab.

Thanks for popping in :smoking:

Forgot to mention that I found a new supplier on amazon that carries the Wilma that I was looking for. It was about the same price as a 4 pot autopot system and I was already leaning in the Wilma direction, so I bought it. Normally wouldn't buy form a supplier with no track record, but the purchase went through amazon so it shouldn't too much trouble to get a refund if there is a problem.

What size wilma did you get?

It is supposed to be the 90 x 90 x 20 with 18L pots. I know it is a 70L reservoir but I only plan to put in 30-40 to start with. How often do you change your res?

 

[woody]

My schedule ups the nutrients every week. But i dont really do a full change- i just add the new stuff into the res.
Unless it gets messy in the res or ec is too high.
Like during week 1 and 2 the plants arent big enough to empty the res before its time to up it.
But when they are in flower they can empty my 40l res in 3-4 days
