Welcome Paul.......good to have another member aboard......Winelands area

I have same problem in my room (5m x 5m x 2.8m).......I have a 35 liter dehumidifier......good interior fan circulation and external in and extraction on full blast. I realized that the incoming and extraction is changing the entire rooms air in 6 minutes.......so my dehumidifier is really not...

I have had huge problems and lost many hours of sleep with over watering in the past when using different growing mediums over various grows. I have worked out myself that getting it right is firstly understanding what growing medium you are using. Pure coco with 50% perlite drains very well and...

For those of us (like me :confused:) without mothers......reliant on buying in clones and caught by lock down, with en empty flower room between cycle.......time has been spent cleaning, sanitising, disinfecting, modifying facilities and are now super keen to put in a new batch and get back to...

I moved vegging clones (18 hours light) from indoors under CMH's to outside. Semi shade and then full sun.......potted up to 6.5 liter and again to 15 liter. Once the 15 liter pot is filled out, I will end up in 70 liter outdoor bag.....with a mixture of super soil and a little natural compost...

In coco......I use PH....5.7 to 5.9 for veg..........5.9 to 6.2 for flower. I would stick rigidly to correct ph........ensure water temperature is not too cold or too hot..............and foliar spray at lights off with 120 ppm calmag........can't harm the plants. spray 2 x 3 days...

I only have 3 grows under the belt and feed my plants using a decent EC pen to set my total ppm's and a decent PH pen to set my final PH.......I also set my water temperature as summer its too hot and winter too cold. No water gets into my garden without being spot on on all three...

Perfect reply Mr X.......thank you.....the theory all adds up.....just wanted someone who has done this on a consistent basis in practice, to confirm. Next time I consider do this i will think things through more carefully and root at 14/10 instead of the traditional 18/6.

:Namaste:

Thanks you all for the healthy advice.......I am going to go with a CFL to add the extra 4 hours light hours to ensure no flower trigger. I will set the light timer to drop very slowly.......... 15 minutes a week to meet up with the natural light cycle......but I will only try that after a month...

I have seen raging debates all over different forums from all over the world and they all seem to go around in circles with very heated debate. The gist of the argument is half agree with your theory and the other half do not agree and are experiencing flower being triggered. Some clever guys...

Hi Guys and Gals I have rooted clones and put them in small pots 3 days after rooting under dome......they have been kept indoors on 18/6 for 5 days.....so from roots showing under the dome till now, they are a total of 8 days old. I want to take 8 of these rooted/potted clones and move them...

I am 61.......started indoor growing and I'm on my 3rd run. Smoked from the age of 14 till 21.......then stopped. I am going to start smoking again in a moderate fashion.

I basically agree with everything you have mentioned....from my research, this is my understanding of how things work. My confusion is that there are companies out there selling this "hybrid" coco super soil, if I can be permitted to use the phrase........saying, simply feed ph water through to...

Ok....so the coco base with (perlite, vermiculum, peat, worm castings, rock dust, bone meal, perlite, guano, micros, aminos and whatever else they put into the mix) is really a sort of "HYBRID" .....classed in the coco substrate category, but definitely not a "super soil".......so must be...
