Indoor RDWC grow. Candy Queen, Jack Herer, Blackdog Phytomax 2 800

[BassBuds]

Hey all. I'm starting the thread a bit deep into my grow, but I expect this to be the first post of many.

Here's my setup:
Gorilla Grow Tent 5x5
Versatile hydroponics 4 site RDWC system
3 home made bubble buckets
Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Bloom/Grow
Black Dog Phytomax2 800w light
Hydroguard

I'm growing multiple strains. I popped a couple mystery seeds that I had saved over the years (I think it may be gorilla glue) while I waited for my candy queen seeds to arrive. I also planted a few jack Herer. When my candy queen arrived I through 2 feminized of her in the box as well

Here are some pics of the initial setup

Week 1, and ro system setup. Popped some mystery bagseeds because I was impatient.

Week 3 of mystery seeds. Week 1 of Jack herer

Week 4. Moved the big gals (hopefully) to their buckets

 

[BassBuds]

Added my scrog. Now have 4 plants in buckets. Added drippers instead of top feed for the buckets to help them grow more roots

 

[BassBuds]

Sprouted my candy queens. Created a bubble bucket out of an old cat litter container for the jack. Moved the candy queens to the buckets when they were ready

Plants are vegging rapidly now

Grow room is filling up now. Started to do a bit of defol and cleaning under the screen

 

[BassBuds]

Plants are growing like crazy. Some lollipopping and defol

 

[BassBuds]

More lollipopping and defol shots.

Did a heavy defoliation and made the switch to flower

 

[BassBuds]

That brings us to a few days ago, we are about 3 or 4 days into flowering. I've just given the plants their first dose of bloom nutrients and bud blood.

 

[BassBuds]

Defoliation recovery completed in like 2 days. Absolutely insane growth rate on these plants.

 

[BassBuds]

My 2 time lapses that I've done so far.

Wow! These are pretty cool! Thanks for posting them. Plants are looking great!

 

[BassBuds]

Could use some advice on bloom boosters. I started flowering with bud blood, and plan to switch to big bud in a week and a half or so.

Anything else make a meaningful difference for people?
I used terpinator in my last grow and was pleased with the results. I hear good things about overdrive and bloombastic.

I want too shelf bud, weight is less important, but who doesn't want big buds

 

[BassBuds]

So all the plants are female. All 7. I couldn't be prouder. I'm so stoked. Added the second scrog net (hopefully this will help even out the height difference. Also took some pics with the light off to give you guys a better idea what these gals look like.

All the plants are starting to show white pistils. I'm seeing a bit of burnt tips on all the plants but I think that's because I lowered the light a little bit. I'm hoping the plant gets accostumed to the extra umph. I've also noticed the candy queen is a much lighter green color. Not sure if that's a deficiency or just the strain.

Clones are starting show some decent roots
