Indoor throxic grows Mephisto - CDLC and Sour Stomper. With Floraflex!

Day 61, added 8 gals - 2119EC 5.93pH. Between second and third fertigation, I ran the drip for 58 mins to see adequate runoff. Noticed CDLC drip line clogged and hand watered additional 2 liters for her and 1 liter for SS. Not sure the Drip Clean is working out in my scenario. In the future, I'll try drip emitters instead of the drip line.

Day 62, raised lights and plants for better drainage. Also replaced CDLC's drip line. Seeing a calcium deficiency. It could be light related, but I'm not too worried at this stage of the grow.

PPFD from top of canopy: (sp-3000 @ 80%, sf-2000 @ 55%, sf-1000 @ 77%)
CDLC - 730
SS - 1150
PC - 1150

Day 63, added 8 gals - 2127EC, 5.95pH, +1Tbsp Cal. Not sure what to think of the SS, buds are really spaced out and airy. I'm guessing it's the ruderalis in her. If she doesn't thicken up I'll have to make hash out of her.

Looking good man. I'm going a little more compact this round to see how they will yield in comparison to them getting taller. Ha! Like I had a choice. But interesting anyway.

Weird about the Stomper. I haven't grown that one yet.
 
I'm enjoying watching along @GreenBean ! That Mendel is a beauty. Yeah I've never seen growth like I've had with this Sour Stomper. I feel I need to try another bean to redeem her. I've seen others turn out looking more like the Ethos in my tent. Though, the next grow will be a couple photo beans.
 
Day 66, added 8 gallons, 2238 EC 5.95 pH, +2Tbsp Cal, 3/4tsp mag. SS drip line is clogged having to hand water 2-3 liters a day.

Day 68, added 8 gals - 2238 EC, 5.95pH, +2Tbsp Cal, +1tsp mag. It was an experiment, but there was too much clogging with the salt nutrients in the drip lines so I replaced the drip lines with drip emitters. I can take these apart a lot easier to clean them if they get clogged. Some quick math, I'm using 8 1gal/hr emitters, so they pump 1 gallon after 7.5 minutes. I have the timer set for 10 mins, 3 times a day, so I may have to dial that back, but I'll be keeping an eye on runoff; trying to aim for 5-10%.

I also stuck the SS in the dark for a couple days - gonna hang her after she dries up a bit. I should get a good bit of hash as she was frosting up nicely.

Like the drip emitter setup! I almost did one myself when I was building mine. I have a semi-auto watering setup similar to yours. If you end up having problems with the drip emitters clogging as well you could try out hydro halos. I've had mine for awhile and they've yet to clog on me and are easy to adjust flow on.

Only real downside is cost. If you search around eBay you can get them pretty cheap. I think I got a set of 9 for like 40 dollars.

Plants look awesome though. I hope the CDLC I just dropped turns out looking as nice.
 
Thanks for the hydro halo recommendation. I'll definitely have to give those a try if these emitters turn out to be bust. Good luck with your CDLC! I'll be popping another sooner rather than later. She's smelling so good!

Cdlc is some dank bro. Better have smell proof ways of transporting it. Will stink up your car. Found out the hard way. My mom was not to happy. Was in my suitcase And made my clothes and my kids stank man. Some really good stuff.
 
Day 71, and I'm starting up the Full Tilt. All refills moving forward for the next two weeks will use the Full Tilt. 8 gallons added to the res, 1672 EC, 5.99pH. (1.5g/gal B1+B2, 3g/gal Full Tilt, 0.4ml/gal Drip Clean)
