Grow Mediums Nebula Cheese + Alien RDWC Pro (55l pots)

[true]

All changed out today.
Res dumped, 50 mins.
Refilled with RO water 90 mins, I have a 1000l tank already full of RO water + Air stone bubbling away.
House & Garden Aqua flakes A & B up to EC 1.5, then Plant Magic Cal Mag finishing off at EC 2.0.
PH adjusted to a nice steady 6.2.

Then I had to get a fresh brew on.
50l of RO water in my swing top bin, in goes my heater, earth worm castings, bacteria and molasses.
This will be ready in a couple of days.

So all being well now, this little cal mag ting should be packing its bags and pissing off home.
The ladies are filling out nicely, the nugs are forming and theres plenty of sugar around already.
Fingers crossed now for the last 4 weeks or so.

Peace

Just over 4 weeks in flower.

Im hoping the cal mag def is behind me. Should I remove the affected leaves? Normally I would be in there but its such a thick jungle, walking through is hard work. I cant see the huge 55l pots anymore
Anyway here are a few pics to wet your whistle. Sorry the lights are always on, Im either in bed or out when the lights go off/on to catch a few pics with no HPS lights on.

EC 2.0
PH 6.3
Res temp 19c
Lights on 25c
Lights off 19/20c
Humidity 30/40% lights on off

The stink is criminal ! Really really mental, I thought about handing myself in its so heavy and dank in there. Truly this sort of thing should not be aloud
Im stepping up tea production to counter the bad week of cal mag issues. I know the ladies are back on track as there drinking like hell again. Thats a great indicator I think, no drink = something is up.

Mighty nice grow you got on your hands. A lot of fun toys

I just had some questions:

1) how do you keep the temps down with all the lamps you have + dehumidifiers?
2) what sort of chiller do you use?

Regarding RO, i am amazed you can have 1000L of RO sitting around. RO usually is not a water what likes to sit (2-3 days the most, since there is no bicarbonate in it). Your water bills should be insane, since 1L of RO = 3-5L of waste water. Thats a lot of water, per household. Just a thing to consider stealth wise.

What do you mean by distilled water doesn't like to sit?

What could happen if it "sits" more than 2-3 days?

I haven`t researched what happens per se but my RO machine provider told me that water isn`t stable and it is not advised to keep RO sitting for longer that 2-3 days. And the source of this information is Aquaphor.

For me it makes sense, since RO (not distilled water- there is a difference...) is empty water without hydrogen or minerals.

Looking back on track now True :kusht:

Yeah I'd whip off any affected leaves that are badly damaged as they ladies will be putting energy into trying to repair those.. Pointless whip them off mate & let them put all energy into bud development.. Week 4.. It is that time after all.. Bud time!!
