    Let me know of you want any help digitizing your data collection. I'm trying to get a web based tool together where growers can use analytics for theirgrows also see other growers data for comparison purposes. I'm building out my bluelab data visualizations today. Checkout my sensorpush (ambient temp,rH) charts if you want @ www.diygrowdata.com ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿค“๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ“Š๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ€๐ŸŒณ

    Hey farmerjim, my Blue Lab Combometer does not log data. However, Iโ€™m really getting into the weeds....pun intended, on my grows. Iโ€™m keeping meticulous notes so I can look back to see what works and what doesnโ€™t. Iโ€™ve just gotten into measuring and monitoring ppm. During past grows I blindly followed the feed chart for hydro found here on GWE. The results have been very satisfactory. But I think I can do better utilizing ppm. As I started out on my current grow, during the veg period I was still using the feed chart. However, Iโ€™m now into week 13 and using ppm to better feed my plant. Over the last 3 weeks I have gone from about 450 ppm to 1000. So far my Jack Herer is responding nicely. I do my checks everyday when the lights come on and adjust ppm and ph at that time.

    48 x 48 x 80 tent
    DWC
    600w MH/HPS with LED to augment during flower
    I do photoperiod strains ( gives me more time to dial it in )
    One plant at a time
    This is my 7th grow

    Does the combometer log data? I have the guardian and it does. I'm a datageek and am basically teying to pull together a bunch of growers data so everyone can compare the details of their grows to others. Just me and 1 other person right now lol ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿค“๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ€๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿ“ˆ

    Great group. Iโ€™ve been at it since day one of legalization here in Cali. I prefer photoperiod strains. Gives me more time to get to know my plants.

    Now that Iโ€™ve been at this for a while Iโ€™m going to try to really get it down. For background, Iโ€™m in a 4โ€™x 4โ€™ x 80โ€ tent using 600w MH/HPS with 2, 300w Roledro COB LEDs to augment the HPS during flower. I have a brand new Sun Systems sealed/ventilated hood that I am running my iPower 4โ€ 190 cfm fan through and dumping the exhaust out a window and I still have trouble with heat. I struggle to keep the temperature between 80 to 85. I know that is high but I have to draw the line somewhere since electricity is my major expense. Iโ€™m growing in a DWC set up using RO and I do one plant at a time so that one plant gets all of my attention. I use GH Flora Trio nutrients with CaliMagic and HydroGuard. During past grows Iโ€™ve pretty much followed the feed chart found here on GWE and closey monitored PH with total disregard for ppm and always topped off with plain water. With nutrients at this relatively low level I experienced tip browning that was attributed here to nutrient burn which I am finding difficult to believe since my ppmโ€™s weโ€™re well under 500.

    Recently I purchased a Blue Labs combometer so now I have access to a quality ppm meter. My current grow is a little Jack Herer girl that is entering week 13. So the stretch is over. All of this being said, during an earlier nutrient change, with everything in and ph set at 6.0, my ppm were 470 which is pretty low from what Iโ€™ve been able to gather these last couple of weeks. During last weekโ€™s change I kicked it up to 640 ppm. Today weโ€™re up to 1000 ppm. So far so good. Sheโ€™s thriving. Canโ€™t wait to see how the colas fatten up.

    Gotta love hydro.

    I agree with stoner it is a really nice looking plant . Is that the 1st strain of Gorrila glue seeds ? Thats what i have to start soon . The older seeds before they crossed them are mostly an indica. Now the newer strains are getting higher in sativa . Im an indica guy sativas push me to close to paranoia
