New to Growing Autoflowers and to Hydroponics

When doing seedlings like this I leave half the rockwool cube exposed so I don’t dampen off. Also hand water until I have a couple sets of true leafs then let the system rip :+1:t2::green_heart::sign_of_the_horns:t2:

That’s what I missed using was the rock wool will use that next go around. This system uses air to push water up which causes a lot of extra spitting. Turned down the flow see if that helps. Haven’t started feeding mine yet was getting close to new leaves. Thanks again

Rock wool seems to be the trick and cutting back the water. 2 weeks now and way farther along thank you all again

Right on buddy :+1:t2:
Glad your moving forward :oncoming_fist:t2::green_heart::sign_of_the_horns:t2:

These girls are on a roll. Question how do we get the skunky flavor or more flavor from them ? Is it let go longer or just get what you get ? Looking for some good ole skunky flavors not like the dispensary crap or flavor at all.

Genetics, Genetics, Genetics :green_heart::sign_of_the_horns:t2:
A few growers are chasing that Skunk Tail :wink:

Same here I sure miss that flavor and tht smell. Amnesia haze is ones going now next is super skunk so will shall see. These have a very nice aroma so far can’t wait to try them.

Another question when should I do the last hard trimming of leaves ? I usually just trim a little at first and do a really good trimming before the harvest. Not sure how much to take off and not hurt them.


These are them

I think they look great and wouldn’t do much if any trimming on them :+1:t2:
The top one I can see light all the way through and the second one you could use some stakes or string to just open her up some and let her be :green_heart::sign_of_the_horns:t2:

Awesome will definitely do that. Crazy how two of them all started same and treated same and two totally different shapes. Thank you again for the help

Anytime buddy :oncoming_fist:t2:
Keep up the great work :green_heart::sign_of_the_horns:t2:

Is there a way to flush them or is it necessary since doing hydro before harvesting? I know when using soil I just flushed with clean water at the end.

Big debate over that buddy :person_shrugging:t2:
Only thing I flush is the toilet :grin::green_heart::sign_of_the_horns:t2:

Sounds good to me. Only did the flush thing once and tried it without doing and wasn’t much difference in taste or smoothness of smoke. So will just let them finish up and enjoy them. They are looking so good and close to ready can’t wait. Thank you again

Making ya drool huh :hugs:
Now it’s not flushing but the last few/couple of weeks I add just pHd water to the rez which lowers EC basically just being cheap ass :green_heart::sign_of_the_horns:t2:

Yes most definitely drooling everytime I go in to check them :joy:. I have been watching all that also ph is staying good and all others seem to be right on spot. I’m hooked on hydro now for sure this will most likely be my best harvest and best looking girls so far. And all thanks to you and all the help. :clinking_beer_mugs:

Figure last watering top off I will just add water no need to keep feeding when about to chop down :rofl:. I’m figuring another two weeks and one will be ready.

It looks like you got the spider Farmer top water dwc kit that rubber ring if you were to bury it about an inch below the surface pebbles it should stop hitting the greening parts of the plant, and possibly would drain back into the bucket faster. Only problem with the “drip” feeder ring is once the roots get to the res the ring is no longer needed.

Got a lot of great advice and people guiding you.

Yes it is the spider version. First go with hydros learned a lot right off. Will for sure be pushing the water halo down found to much flow they will drown. Also keeping the basket out of the water enough very nice setup easy to use and maintain. Cleaning will be fun with root ball it’s filled up the whole bucket.

Definitely great place for help and awesome group of peeps knowledgeable for sure.:+1:
