Big'G' Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 Thanks Dust Here's one looking down on them. I think if I remember rightly they're not even a month old.They're still not looking for any food. And I lowered the light by 400mm. Peace my brothers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 As requested brother TokageIm really not sure if I should feed them a little?????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 Yeah Tokage only ph water which I must say is a little strange to me, ive never gone this long without feeding. Mind you this is only my 2nd crop using aero, skipped the hydro thing. There is very mild yellowing on the first leaves that wasn't there yesterday. Here's the other end of the girls a wee upskirt pic if you like....... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 Lol I'm just on after giving my girls some food so I'm glad to find you've suggested that, thanks brother Tokage for keeping me right I've had use the feed I got and gave them 20 grams to the 50L. This has given an Ec of .7 and a Ph of 5.1 . I'm going to check the Ph again in an hour or so and take it from there. Hopefully they'll take off like plants on steroids lol here's a pic of the yellowing I mentionedJust checked after 2hours Ph 5.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 In the 1st pic above you can see the healed break. Im glad it pulled through, now she's benefiting from my guilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blixy Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Looking good, I'm not brave enough to have a set-up like this yet, its hard to tell in the pictures but do they stretch a lot under the LED? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 Thank you brother Blixy, To be fair the first light they were exposed to was a halogen mini flood 100w. Which I wouldnt expect to have the best spectrums, and I think that's why they're a bit stretchy. They were put into 12/12 2 days after I got the led.

Blixy Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Those god damn no good bad spectrums, why can't they just fuck off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leopard Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Hi Big"G"5.3 is a very low pH, I recommend that you get on 5.5 to 5.6 during growth or you'll of deficiency poblem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 Brother LeopardMany thanks for bringing such a useful table of info on what nutes are being absorbed at different Ph readings. Im sure many others will find it most informative alsoPeace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 AarrrrggggghhhhWhat could this be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 Other than the "scaring" one of the leafs things seem to be going well. The roots are coming on and the main stem on each girl is putting on nice girth. I think it'll be a few more weeks before I put the SCREEN in place. There's no change in the water conditions........ Ph5.5 Ec .7 and temp around 27degRoom is kept at 26degC give or take 2-3deg. I've still to get a carbon filter and some ONA BLOCK. I think this could be a smelly crop, theres been fragrance for a few weeks now but it's mild at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big'G' Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 Looking at the pictures above and the ones at the top of the page from 6 days ago, the girls are doing well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokeythabear Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Thats a really cool set-up..and a damn cool profile pic..coming from someone who grew up in the '80s lol. I've always thought aeroponics was really cool, and I know it's not that technical but it so far seems foreign to me. I haven't seen too many set-ups like this so very cool to see one man. Thanks for sharing!Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 Thanks SmokeyThis is my 2nd aero grow. The 1st was with a mix pack of seed from which SSH was one of the pack. It did so well with very little care and effort I decided to grow 4 of them this time. Not doing it to sell but to save spending on nameless damp sometimes wet weed. This way I know what im smoking it'll be dry and really nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 TokageBrother I have an issue with some of the leaves curling and not having that perfect look. I'll load up some more pics tonight for you to cast your words of wisdomPeace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 I think I may have been a bit quick with the panic of not having the best leaf. I think the girls are just getting used to the feed. But hey that doesnt mean no porn. Im thinking about covering the clay balls due to the last photo, thoughts please my brothers......Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Do you mean to cover them because of fear that the light will hurt the roots?Yeah Tokage thats what I'm thinking. What do you think? I don't need mould or algae kicking in. Peace and thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big'G' Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 I will have to look into that cloth stuff, for all I need lolThank you brother tokage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Jones Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Looking good mate, you could use 4" block covers to stop light getting to the bottoms or make your own by cutting out 4" squares of black & white plastic (the stuff people use to line the walls of growrooms).Also to ensure a good yield have you considered getting another 90w LED to run side by side?I've worked with various LEDs for a while now, and ultimately it works out as around 1g per watt if everything else is perfect, just like with other light types.

Big'G' Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 Hello brother badgerI have though about another led identical to the one I have. It would still be a good deal lower wattage than the previous 400w set up I had run in the past. Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
