Grow Mediums Steely's first hydro grow. LED DWC.

Thanks gbd, yes i found some EWC tea recipes when i was searching earlier but decided to go for the rot stop.
 
Day 17 ...

Day 17 in the HydroBox!



Fan is helping the cooling :



Think i managed to hold off what looked like the beginning of root rot due to temps by using unfiltered tap water that smells like a swimming pool and a tiny drop of 20% H2O2 :



She's doing ok :



The Rot Stop arrived today so i've added that to the mix.


Cheers,

Now u got some roots steely. .. :) this going to be awesome! Do u have space for her? :coffee2:
 
Cheers Tdam:)

I have 3.5 feet vertical space and the box is 2 feet square.

I've only grown AKRs in 3L pots before and they never reached 2 feet high so hopefully enough room, it's a short strain so ...


All the best,

steely
 
hey steelrat your lady is looking real good mane! I'm gonna keep a watch on her, I'm trying decide if I want to run a DWC this next go around.. Good luck on her! ! !
 
Cheers peeps :)

My water-pumps arrived today :



My hose line still hasn't come, though.

My PPM meter calibration fluid arrived and as i expected my meter is WAY off.

The meter was reading 3.54 times the real value, so she's been enjoying a real PPM of around 300-600 (EC 0.4 - 0.8), wihch falls in line with everyone elses experience!

Trouble is, the meter didn't come with a cali stick and it has a strangely shaped hole, not a philips screwdriver shape.

Anyway i used a computer scredriver to get in there and adjust the thing and it is just a cheap piece of crap, it's uncalibrateable! Readings all over the place.

So will have to buy a better meter.

Outdoor AKR is doing ok, she's always gonna be slender and short but she's healthy and enjoying the outdoors :




Cheers,

steely
