coco vs nft, ft Growers choice San Fernando X Purps

[Vador]

Week 7

# of plants = 3 (2x coco, 1x nft)

Formulex = 2ml/L
Fulvic = 0.8ml/L
Rootstim = 0.8ml/L

Background E.C = 0.5 (3 stage filter)
P.H = 5.6
ec = 0.9

Light = Invisible Sun V bar (150w) @25% (37w) GLR light cycle

weeks later and the coco ones are finally topped now, slow going this is.






Nft is well ahead now, considering all 3 plants are drinking from the same barrel there is a remarkable difference


gave her a thin out and no doubt will be topping some nodes this week




one of my favourite things about nft is chucking bleach in the tank once in a while and let it clean the tank

I was reading down and see you say "I thinned her out". My heart stopped, I thought you might have gone mad again .

They are coming along lovely mate

Week 8

# of plants = 3 (2x coco, 1x nft)

Silicon = 0.5ml/L
Calmag = 0.5ml/L
A+B = 1ml/L
Fulvic = 0.8ml/L

Background E.C = 0.5 (3 stage filter)
P.H = 5.6
ec = 1.1

Light = Invisible Sun V bar (150w) @25% (37w) GLR light cycle

Up until now all 3 plants have been drinking from the same barrel and had formulex for the main feed, now they are on a+b, one for hydro the other coco, all on 1ml/L

After topping the coco ones have started to bush out now. ive been bending the branches and flattening them out to get them to spread.
They are finally at the size I can start doing something with them.










NFT one is looking sweet, she is starting to touch the walls now though, need more space. After this grow im gonna do away with this setup and make more space.

Foliar = 2ml/L
Silicon = 0.5ml/L

Starting to run out of room again, plants are touching the sides of the tent and stopping them grow out as well.
When the flower room is empty in about another weeks time ill be moving things around and making more space so should have loads of veg space after that

here are the coco ones

This is a cool example of the growth differences of the media. Fair play for doing all that extra work

Thanks, its not been too much extra work to be fair, just means i have to mix up an extra barrel of nutes each week.
I was expecting there to be a difference between the two methods but wasn’t expecting this much, ive done everything i can to keep it fair, same strength nutes, same light distance and intensity, same everything really except for medium.
Thanks for looking in
