    DWC, in addition it has drippers into the baskets. You can see a video of it on Stealth Hydro's web site. Those plants kept outgrowing my indoor chamber and I would have to keep knocking them back. Those cuttings were what I used for cloning. That is why I won't know what they are until they...

    Trimming and training

    Well I did it, but had a wild surprise. I cut those plants down to about a foot and half. I did not want to keep paying the power bill and nutrient bill with no fruit. If they don't do well, I'll clone the surviors and put new plants in this spring. As I was cutting them out, deep inside where...

    Trimming and training

    When I started with the hemp fertz, everyone told me grow and bloom was not needed for peppers, unlike hemp. I thought the Chile focus wouldhelp with anything they were lacking.

    Trimming and training

    I started with dope nutrients from the supplier for six months. After flower drop then switched to General Hydroponics with a 2/2/2 mix. Now also using Chili Focus for top offs before changing the tank every 2 weeks. I need to add about 3 gallons every 3 days.

    Trimming and training

    I have 5 plants in a hydro system. I have over 315 watts of cfl over the top and two 85 watt cfl lights on the under side. The plants all are about 4 feet tall. I have to trim almost daily to keep them from growing in the lights and burning. The tops of some of the plants are so dense the are...

    Turn on the Bloom

    I think the problem has been the lights. I've ordered new fertz for when the current ones run out. I added a couple of lights under the canopy where all the leaves had fell off. I came back after a weekend out of town and found my first fruit. I was surprized to see that it was a Bhut. I'm...

    Turn on the Bloom

    Here is week 14. Lots more blooms and more developed but still no fruit. Buds are really starting to appear like crazy. If you look close you can see that the plants are almost to tall for the grow chamber. To encourage some fruit, I just added two additional CFL bulbs, in case the problem is...

    Turn on the Bloom

    Willard What brand of fertizer do you use. Can I add it straight to tap water and ignore it for two weeks or does it need constant pH checks? Does it work well with DWC ? I'm going to be ordering soon and if you can make a recommendation that works for me, I'm going to switch.

    Turn on the Bloom

    After 3 months of growth with no fruit and dropped blooms, I have added the bloom fetilizer. Now lets see what type of crop I get. This first picture is 12 weeks in the grow mode with high Nitrogen Hopefully the phosphorus will get these blooms fruiting. I just bought a cloner to start my...

    Hydro Question

    I did some research based on your reply. That makes sense. Thank you. The bloom fertilzer should take care of that balance. I feel better now. With the size of these plants, it will be worth the extra time to start producing. The grow fertilzer was a 3 month supply and the bloom another three...

    Hydro Question

    OK, now I'm getting concerned. The plants outside are starting to show fruit. The indoor plants have zero. I have a small fan that I move around inside, I've done the gentle shake, and even have tried using a paint brush. In one more week I change to bloom nutrients. Since the nutrients I'm...

    Hydro Question

    Here is week ten. Impressive growth, tons of dropped blooms and zero fruit. I've turned the lights back to be off eight hours a day. In two weeks I start the bloom fertilizer. I also included a pic of outside plants from the same batch. They are just now getting thir first blooms.

    Hydro question

    If your system does not have a drain valve, install one at your first nutrient change before the plant and roots get too big. You wil need to drain about every two weeks. Mine is on a wood base that allows me to drain the tank into a gallon jug. I then use that water / nutrient to water my...

    Hydro Question

    I took the plants out of the cubes and rinsed off the dirt. I spread the roots out in a cross and put them in the hydroton. My systen has delvery direct to the roots in the cups plus the normal DWC. The roots made it into the tank within a week of planting. I like the fertilizor that comes with...
