Dutch Passion Steely's 10th Grow. Dutch Passion Auto White Widow, LED, DWC.

That WW is going to be a monster!
 
EC of 1.0 :D

Shit I was running my normal ones on EC 0.8 :p

Steely you got to tell me your EC from start to finish or I am just going to start with underfeed

Is it true I am suppose to run them on pure water for the first week?

I was imaging just running a weak ppm of root boost and veg. nutrition and then hit them with the flower nut. when she stops growing vertical, maybe that is a mistake ... guess I just have to wait until I can plant and read my ... plant

anyone wanna give me a good tip on a Autos diets from seed to flushing ?

I normally flush for nearly 2 weeks but maybe I will need to cut that down little for the auto. week in flush :p
 
new seedlings until the first set of true leaves need only water. In DWC, I then take them to about 200 ppm ( .285 EC ) then 2-3 weeks later go to 600-700 ppms ( .85 - 1.0 EC ). I personally keep the ppms there till the end. Some people increase the EC as high as 1.8, I don't believe its necessary. Flush a week before chop with distilled or RO water

Sorry, didn't mean to hijack your thread Steely!
 
I wanted Steely´s answer ;D


haha thanks Pop but yeah then its the same as I do normally but just much much faster ... I think I never gone over 1.6 EC except when I had some ridiculous amount of lights and Co2 on a plant but I not done that for years, think it messes with the taste a bit but normally keep it about 1.2-1.4 in towards the end of flower, maybe 1.6 if its a large sativa and then I stop with flower nut and only add bloom buster for a week more and then 9-14 days of flush

its really hard not to hijack a thread when you just start talking :D sorry Steely !
 
Haha, it's not a hijack but a conversation, like you said :)

Pops was doing hydro before me.

When the seedling is in the root-riot i just have the riot soaked in pH 5.6 water and squeezed a bit so not so soaked.

But i have nutes in the bucket from the start, at 500ppm/1.0 ec.

My chipset is Hanna, conversions are slightly different for other types :

I was going to start at 0.8ec but i'd heard she was hungry as she grew so wondered if she'd be hungry at the start, and she seems to be!

Another client has just signed up with me so one more and i can buy the new LED, i've just started my own business so cash is tight but it's building pretty quickly.

Looking forward to a big, fat white widow for xmas ;+}


Cheers,

steely
 
Can't believe how quickly she's growing, 7cm now and the stem is thickening so quickly (day 11) :



Forgot to take root shot, but she's trying to grow a root above the surface !



Can see those nice, Indy leaves forming :)


Cheers,

steely
 
The waterproof cam idea would be great. Cant wait to see it, they are looking lovely and healthy dude.
