4k coco vs UC

Totally!!! I haven't even hooked up my co2 bottle yet
been 2-3 days now. First day co2 was up at 2000ppm. Then I turned fan on to bring it down to 1500ppm. Yesterday it started out at around 1350ppm, lights just went out and it was at 980ppm. I have to look over plants today before lights go back on. I bet co2 will be back up around 1300-1400ppm. Think I'll get away without running my bottle for the next couple days until plants really start using it up.....
Really loving this "sealed room" I've been able to maintain so far 70% humidity. And thats with a crappy little humidifier. Hoping to have a good humidifier in 2-3 weeks, then I'll have no problems maintaining 70% humidity even with 3000w blasting!!!
Have you over done trellis training before? Or is this your first time?
That's sweet. Hope you take lots of pics for me please. Be nice to be shown how to trellis from someone that actually knows what they are doing!!!
so your basically going to weave for about 10-14 days or until plants are done the stretch period?Do you set your trellis at one height and let the plants grow into it? Or do you start low and raise trellis as plants grow?
Update day 1 bloom
This is going to be fun. Look at these little plants in the UC. I can almost guarantee they will catch up and pass the height of the plants on the coco table.
Loving the CS nutes as well
Pearly whites. Tomorrow Im going to cage em
Coco up next

Looking awesome!!!!! Can't believe how much healthier your girls look now. You still giving just straight aqua flakes on base days? No cal-mag or anything else? I picked up my 5 litre bottles of aqua flakes today. Thanks for the recommendation!!
Can't believe how quickly the UC is catching up now!! I do think you'd see some faster growth from your coco girls if they were getting dripped 3 times a day and up to 5 times a day during peak flower...... either way they look great!!! Looking like your whole scrog table is almost full and you still have all of stretch. Looking forward to the show your putting on 8)

Very nice and clean BigGreen. Looking forward to seeing how you train these ladies. Do you supercrop them or is the frostbite a naturally viney plant?
Is that table on wheels or how do you get to the plants against the wall?

Pure coco works well when you're hand watering, but with your DTW setup like that you should really cut it with something for more air. Have you tried that yet?
I didn't really start seeing the faster growth that I was used to from the UC until I started mixing in chunky perlite and or chunky coco so it would hold less water and I could get more waterings in per day
That is weird.. what kind of lighting over the moms?
Also looking back, your roots look really good! Do you think those pots will hold back the roots or are you going to up pot? Have you tried out the fabric pots (smart pots) yet? For plants that size you could easily do 1g's and that would help with being able to water more often. I have done side by sides with the fabric pots, root routing pots, and regular pots, and the fabric pots are always the best roots and plants.
If you go that route, the cheapest and easiest I've found is just HOME DEPOT ONLINE

Ah yes, the T-5's I forgot. I got rid of mine but I did like it for sure. I would have kept it if it had just a little better penetration for larger plants. Can't beat them for under 18" tho..
As for the 1g's, I would agree if you used those same style pots, but with fabric pots its actually BETTER to use a smaller pot. You'd have to see how the roots look when the plants are finished to really know, but what happens is the roots grow straight out until they hit air and then they stop and get fat. So instead of having the long spindly roots that go round and round, you have what almost looks like an upside down afro. (if that makes sense). If you're not sure you could always run just a couple of them next to your other girls and see how you like it.
