Thanks Bobble, definitely need some polarized glasses when the 1k`s
on, I try and do most of my work during the first/last 30 minutes when
it's only the 2 x 400 MHs... even then I don't stare at the walls, lol !
Dan, I did the same routine will them last round and they really did
not stretch that much, maybe 16 or 18" after all the weaving I did.
Going a bit heavier on the base nutes, with way less boost [if any]
this round as well... 5.7 PH at 850 ppms... still rock'n the nova too.
unregistered, right on, hang out all you want... lots of good folks do !
tleaf, Ya...
I really have too get on that, if you look closely, you can
see the pattern of the nets in the reflectors, it's all about the angles !
I picked up a cool stash container... it's pretty "Slick" literally !
My Shit don't stick no more...
Have a great Sunday everyone and may peace
be upon you.
Dab'n out,
Sprout.

It's day 8 and my girls are stretch'n their legs a bit, everyone
that is except the Nightmare diesel, she definitely needs more
time in veg from now on, after seeing budmans big bushes I'm
going too start her sooner, like right now in fact, new toy too !
8 Nightmares I'll keep the 4 best and gift out the rest...
They've perked right back up since I took that pic too.
As for the flower room, well it's probably easier to just show you.
The gap on the right side is where the Nightmare is... she's about
two inches below the net, I had the same problem with her on the
last run, thus the need for a head start from now on. If the smoke
she produced wasn't kick ass I wouldn't even bother, but it is, so...
Anyway here's the room.
Give you an idea of much they've stretched so far.
Environmental stats.
Just doing my thing...

what I would like to know or need help with is Calibrating my TDS pen correctly,
currently, my Tap water is showing 3.4-3.6 ph, @77f, am I able to add the relevant drops of ph up to arrive at 5.5-5.8ph then calibrate my pen, I also have ph 6.5 for aquarium usage which when added to the correct abount of water will sit at ph 6.5, I could then use ph down to bring it down to again 5.5-5.8, and calibrate my pen using this method, but until the pen is calbrated it woud all be guess work which i dont want to do????????????
any assistance greatfully received.
you can't use water to calibrate . it has to be a calibration solution bought at your hydro shop or online .

The secret. Keep wet and warm
I soak in a lil mixture of things, ph to 5.5.
Take my cut out of a cup of water after bout 2 days dip in gel and put into cube
Keep wet plain RO after a week I check things for roots
After roots lightly feed once or twice while the slower ones pop
In ever use a dome. I never have need to harden plants off. They root fine and I don't lose plants. The most common way to kill these RW is to drown them on the first transplant. I got a method to avoid that too. Nothing special just the obvious for avoiding losses.
That's all
The more favorable temps pop roots faster. I've had em sit in my cold garage for two weeks and do nothing and move them into the veg room and blow out roots in a couple days
After a week I try to let them get on the drier side here n there to coax out the roots but mostly keep very moist. I water the tray like 1x a day or less enough to keep wicking up water but not sitting in a puddle. The grooves in the tray will give water to roots.

Thank you Sir, dually noted !
Dan the man... this ones for you buddy, visited a friends garden today
where I've secretly been testing this stuff, his gear was looking tits,
greener than green and they had some serious stalks on them as well !
Soooo, here we go, one...
50 scoops later... it will probably be easier to just weigh the stuff in the future @ 5.5 grams per gallon !
I adjusted the PH down too 5.8 and left the extra circulation pump
running too mix the solution up good and warm up that water a bit
before their next scheduled feeding in about 5 1/2 hours from now.
The Gorilla glues are looking real good this round, bigger than the
last run, the bottom of the main stalks are huge so they should be
pumping water and nutrients to the tops like there's no tomorrow !
Artsy fartsy shot...
Fingers crossed...

Cool !!! your gonna be happy with it dude, really !!!
whats your water ? & did ya get Hard or soft formula ?
I feed by the EC & mix in 5 gallon buckets , but 50 scoops seems like alot to get 1.4 EC !!! thats a scoop per gallon , i use a level tsp to get 200tds in 5 gallons . 3 tsp's would get me to where you are at 6 -700 tds
i'm stoned & the math could be fuckin with me lol
just keep an eye on your ph for a week or so untill you get used to it & what it does in your system , but a circ pump usually raises my PH ,
& just a heads up in case you decide to use their additives , both the Plus size & plus life both leave a sandy residue in the rez , my OCD couldn't handle it & i dropped them both .
i use 0 water (RO/DI ) & the HR RO formula .... your water may have buffers in it , i dunno , & that makes a difference with the PH .
I love the stuff , but i only use the base .

Dan, I have unsoften`d tap water that comes out of the faucet @
210 ppms. I have both the tap water formula and another they call
"The dirty" formula (contains humic acids) for my mother plants as
I maintain them using fox farms ocean/forest... my dirty girls lol !
Generally when I do a reservoir change out my PH will bounce back
nearer to 7.0 by the next day, couple drops of AN`s PH down and
it stays put... the circulation pumps on a timer and comes on for 15
minutes 8 times a days, I like my shit mixed up and who has the time.
I'm going too go get all fuck'n baked now, new shit freaks me out !

like i said you'll get it figured out for your system , you know what yer doing
just givin ya a heads up about the PH with this stuff 
i do notice real quick with this stuff if my PH is off , more so than other nutes , maybe cuz its a 1 part that has everything in it , & i use 0 water , i dunno
but like my 5 gallon veg bucket .... the ph climbs over a couple day , but my 18 gallon rez's ..... the ph drops over a couple days . fucked if i know why
