So I have to give a shout out to @Kingaizen69 for his awesome low wattage thread and a big shout out to @Mr.Sparkle for his amazing microgrow threads. You 2 gentleman were the inspiration behind this “ghetto” project. Let the show begin
this is the 5 gallon microgrow Gatorade container
not as bright as everyone else’s grow lights but at less than 15w and runs on 6v solar it works! The leds will run on 3.7v but like emerald I kicked it up a notch

And with @Mr.Sparkle running his microgrow at less than $11 worth of electricity for an entire run I’m guessing that this would cost you about $2 for a run. But it’s on solar so it’s actually $0.00 per run

Expect your plants to make you work in DWC.
You need to push them as much as you can. The idea is to gradually build up the ppm weekly. As they feed and the water level drops you need the ppm to sit stable. Once its sat stable every time you top off the rez your the solution needs to be the same. If its higher in the rez than you oriinaly started just dilute to correct levels. Your looking for the ppm/ec to sit stable and the ph to rise ever so slightly. If you use regular tap water you shouldn’t need any calmag. I’ll pull up a chair and watch the fun.

I know it’s only been < 24 hours since I posted the first pic of the little one. . .But i do believe she looks a teeny tiny bit bigger after all night in the GG (ghetto grow)
What do you guys think?

Ya if this little one just survives I will be. . . I just lost the last 8 of my ReikoX s outside to the heat and SGS. So she is the last of the MEHECANS and she’s getting the most babying I’ve ever given to a plant. Hell I made her her own house equipped with track lighting and A.C. she’s got it made better than me hahaha

You need to give them a good dose of LITFA
After you leave them alone for a few days its easier to see the growth, and I think its rewarding in its own way. Of course there is happiness to be had by everyday gardening too, but many times new growers don’t LITFA enough… The “care” can have a negative effect on the optimal progress of the plant even though its “made out of love”. Love kills?

Ya your probably right but the others died from Part LITFA overdose, Part mega harsh environment, part SGS (sh*tty grower syndrome) so I’ve been a little more noobish and technical it is my first time growing auto so I am. . . Hahaha got to get your feet wet somehow
