[SykonoT]

Higher check out this diy dwc/ wick system I made with a 2l coke bottle



I don't have meters and testers I'm just following the chart I follow for the soil grow but Ill use nutrients mix and not plain water lol figured I'd try it and see what happens

[Weedguru Higher]

You should see some fantastic growth now that the roots have room to grow

[SykonoT]

[SykonoT]

[Weedguru Higher]

sYkonot...I get it now lol. I always wondered what the sky o not thing was all about

[SykonoT]

Yep lmao it was my first xboxlive name

[(weedguru)scarf]

so the roots grow in the bottle?

[SykonoT]

Yep just for now till the roots grow out I have a string going from the grow medium down to the oxygenated nutrient mix and eventually the roots will grow out into the nutrient and it'll grow theretill I have to change reservoir to bigger

Well ok I have this old timer telling me raise my damn light up to 16 inch away from the tops and if I'm not mistaking I think it's 6-12 inch for a 400 w metal halide with cool tube?

[Weedguru Higher]

16 inches is awfully far away..

Did he mention why he thinks it should be at that height?

He claims that if it's close and even if it's not hot,he said that te rays coming from the light is Hanna burn and hurt them lmao idk how true that is but I'm keeping mines at 6-7 inch away

[Weedguru Higher]

6-7 inches is pretty damn close...like too close. You can't possibly be getting proper light coverage for all your plants being that low seems to me

Recommended typical OLH distances:
400w HPS: 1 foot
600w HPS: 1.5 foot
1000w HPS: 2 foot

I haven't a clue what Hanna burn is. But yeah of course if the light is too close the leaves will burn even long before being in contact with them

[SykonoT]

I ment the rays of light will burn them lol damn auto correct

[Weedguru Higher]

Oh.. that's why when I googled Hanna burn and it turned up nothing lol

But ya he's right...they can get burned if they are too close

[SykonoT]

Idk but this is the droopy one and a nice pic of them

I should have a decont yield right lol??
