First hydro grow. She’s northern lights photo period. I’m 31 days from the flip. She’s about 2’ diameter and maybe 1.5’ tall. Running GH flora plus liquid koolbloom and hydroguard. I’m just curious what people think. This has gone better than any soil grow I’ve ever done.
So my reservoir is more roots than nutes at the moment. I don’t really have space for a larger reservoir and definitely don’t have space for RDWC. This is just after topping off the reservoir today and the root ball is basically out of the water in spots. I’m day 24 of flower. Swapping the reservoir is fairly easy (I do it once a week), but it seems like there potentially isn’t enough circulation to adjust things like PH thru out. To be clear I’ve not seen any issues so far and she’s chugging along great. I’m just worried if there’s something I could or should do to get ahead of potential problems.
Edit: it’s a 6 gallon bucket
Northern Lights photoperiod
First time doing defoliation week 3 of flower. I think I did ok. First two photos are from today. Second two are from 17days ago. My hands are a little too big to get in there much more than I have already. But how’d I do?
Looking for feedback from folks with more experience than me. I had been thinking about how to construct this for years. But in the last year I committed to building it. First hydro grow and first grow in about 15 years. I think I’ve got it dialed in pretty well. But advice would be appreciated. I know my cfl and blurple sold school but until they die I’m not looking to spend more on new. Looking to do continuous harvest on a monthly basis
Veg is the blurple chamber on the left.
Flower is the center.
Mother and clone is on the right although I have nothing actually growing in there currently.
Above the flower mother and clone is where my filter and pump are housed.
The flowering plant is northern lights photo from seed. It’s about 15 days into flower.
Veg plants are clones. They’re about 15 or so days into veg.
