Hi Ledbud,

I managed to pick up some Barneys Farm seeds, arrived today (next day stealth delivery from within the UK - Pick and Mix as recommended on this actual forum, so touch wood, no issues there).
I got Tangerine dream, LSD, pineapple Chunk and Vanilla kush. I'm building a wardrobe set up with a Helios 6, CO2 and full Ecotechnics fan and CO2 controllers. I'm waiting for a Bubbleponic unit that's about 80 litres. I've decided on House and Garden nutes, and I can't wait to get cracking. I know I can go at higher air temps (80-85 degrees) with CO2 and use more nutes as well, but it looks like I will have to bolt a chiller onto my Bubbler to avoid Pyth, and I might need advice on that. I chose H+G as they are clean and will not clog airstones and water lines, plus they have nice enzymes.

Ledbud, what nutes did you use for your DWC grow, and any chance of looking at your figures. All I have to do is wait for that damn bubbler , and of course, decide which baby to go with first. I'm figuring Vanilla Kush first so I can get used to the set up, then go whole hog on one of the premiums, LSD or Pineapple probably. With a tub that size I might even do 2 strains.

Thoughts and advice anyone please.
Wish me luck and peace to all.

hi mate
i never use chiller, co2 is good idea mate, you will get bigger buds.
you will get good result with your set up.
i use canna aqua vega and flora, canna rhizotonic, cal-mag by Plant Magic and cann PK 13/14.
i use canna start for first 20 days then go on to aqua vega.
i start at EC 0.8, my tap water is EC 0.66 so reall EC is just 0.14 on week 2 i go up to EC 0.9 and up to 1.1 on day 14.
day 20 i go with aqua vaga at 1.1. then i see how plant respond to feed.
I check EC and PH ever day, if EC go up, plant not feeding so i bring EC down by 0.1 if EC go down plant hungry and i up EC by 0.2.
this is how i work out what my plant need.
PH always at 5.8.
i no expert mate but it works for me. i got 8.5 oz from my sweat tooth auto and 10 oz from my TD.
i think i can do better as i still new to autoflower, still learning how to grow autoflower.
hope this helps mate.

Thanks for that prompt reply mate!
I appreciate you sharing your notes man, that's gonna be a great help. I nearly fell for the Advanced Nutrients over hype, but then having looked at the huge list of diluted, overpriced bottles of confusion juice, I made the decision between H+G and Canna. H+G pipped Canna, purely because of the great DWC and Bubbleponic reviews.
I figured a chiller only because res nute temp should be around 65 degrees, and my ambient temps will be almost 20 degrees higher. I've hear of some growers sticking a bottle of frozen water in the res every day as a cheap fix to avoid rot and nute uptake issues, but as you can see from my set up I am going all techno with bells and whistles on this. It must be the disco lights doing it to me (NB Helios 6 is NOT a disco light in any way!).
I'll put up some pics of my cab so far, pretty soon!

ya man your set up is high tec.
I am bit low tec.
keep up good work mate, i will help you where i can but looks like you done you recharge.
pot plants are easy to grow just give it love and care. go slow on feed to start with, you can push them hard when they get bigger.
happy growing karma and cant wait to see you set up.
post some pic soon mate, i am all excited about your grow.
