Yay! You returned for an update? Any room left for some dried bud shots?

Mine isnt aero, just dwc. Much easier and cheaper to build and you dont need the water pumps. I can make a small tek in my journal if it will help. On that same note, if you need help replicating anything from this grow, I'd be happy to help. Anything you ask for, I will try to do my best to help. Really like seeing other people succeed too.

I would think something like that would be suitable for the grow room design forum. But not too sure about that. It would get more views over there. Seems like a pretty simple set up. KISS is always the way to go.

Oh ok! thanks so much.
yeah I guess the main thing is how do I build a DWC like that set-up.
I also want to do scrog, I think I have a good handle on it.
Love this grow though, one of my favorites on the site.
Thanks Integra21.

Ok, I got asked to put some finished bud shots up, so here they are. These are my white widows that have been curing for 4 weeks. They have an almost spicy floral smell and a taste i cant quite describe, but it is kinda musky and sweet with almost a zippy bite like a lemon head. It makes my tounge go numb first hit like nummise.
I will also have a real update coming alter.

Ok. I have done a little tweaking to fight a spider mite problem. I Have added an extra humidifier to keep the rh@55%. I also dropped the temps down to about 72F. Did this because the mites best breeding enviroment is 80F and dry. Also finally fixed my RO purifier. Initial ppm is now under 10 instead of the previous 330. The Flower res stays at a constant 71F with between 800-1100ppm. These plants are hungry. Put 1200ppm mix in 2 days ago, and this morning it was at 450ppm. Added more nutrients to bring it up to 880ppm. The plants are growing fast and dont seem to show signs of slowing despite the mites. I have sprayed twice with a 1:3 alcohol:water mix and it seemed inaffective, so today I steped it up to Einstien Oil(neem oil) and gave the girls a thourough soaking. I hope this works, becasue i am quicly running out of days that I can get away with spraying, because as the buds grow, moisture will lead to mold problems. But as you can see in the pics, its a small infestation, barely noticable. No webs. Here are the pics.

Yeah, If it weren't for the damn mites, It would be going perfect. Always got to have some problem. I'm even more pissed because I just sprayed them, left for 5 mn, came back to check, and they're still crawling around. This Neem was supposed to kill on contact. WTF. It was the first time they were sprayed with this, so they shouldn't have built up an immunity.

That res seems pretty shallow. I would love to see some more details on your DWC setup. Would you recommend a larger/deeper reservoir if the space constraints allowed for it? Is there anyway to clean/swap airstones once the plants are that size?

Do you have any use for the roots? Surely they could be used for something. sadly, we don't have enough root porn on this site.

Mites can be a total pain in the ass. You need to launch a full on attack now before things get out of control, as there is a certain point where their population will just totally explode. Pyrethrin based miticides work well and are low enough in toxicity that they are suitable for indoor environments and early flowering.
If you don't want to do that, soak a cloth with your neem oil and individually wipe each leaf. Repeat after one week.

Thanks Geo. I have already sprayed twice 3 days apart with a 1:3 alcohol:water mix. Waited 2 more days and Sprayed every thing down with Einstien Oil(neem oil), and It has been a couple of days again. They are still there. Going try one more spray later today, and if that fails, I'll move onto the leaf wiping. If that fails, I'm going to try some predator mites. Found some good ones the feed on mites, larva and eggs, and after they're gone, will get all Hanibal Lectar on themselves. I appreciate the help Geo. I had never thought of wiping. Now I have something to fight them well into flower when the spraying must stop.
