Hello folks. Ive been off the grow for about 6 months, and am now ready to start again. This time im going bigger. Ive decided to go with a 3m x 2m x 2m tent and have got 4 x 480w Full Spectrum Led Grow Lights Now then, I have a 12 pot IWS Flood & Drain system and an 8 pot Wilma. What sort of...

Cheers bud. I cant even guage how they should be to how they are currently. I made some seeds on my last run and its first time trying them, so this is is going to be a bit of a shitty test run on them. Ive kept a mom of this cut, so if it turns out fairly decent ill run it again. They look nice...

Hey folks, Ive only just discovered this. My timer has a few stuck contacts i think. I have lights on from 8pm to 8am, and im currently 4 weeks into flower. Last night I found out my bloody timer is switching off for 30 mins at 3am then switching back on. Only reason I found out was because I...

Hello folks, I'd like to start a perpetual grow and would like some help on how to set this up and if it will work. Imstruggling with how I should organise the rotation and duration of stages, so I'll list my gear and space. Hopefully someone could shed some light on when to move things around...

Well I went and checked on the girls that I thought were late bloomers, and I almost shit myself. Found out that a part of the segment switches wasn't operating properly so they were getting 14 on and 10 off ! No fucking wonder they were creeping into bloom. I've switched out that timer and put...

Haha no problem, although I can understand where youre comming from, clay in a soil mix would be a nice ammendment depending on the source. Ive not heard of hydro Buddy nor use any calculators in my ammendments, I just try to judge by what I add and when and gauge the PPM's before/after a feed...

I wished I didnt sell my CMH ballasts just for this, Id have ran 10k bulbs the last week ontop of dimmed cobs just to finnish !

Totally agree, I forgot to mention I use 660nm red at lights out to " try " and circumvent this. the 660nm puts the girls to sleep rapid instead of the 1-2 hours it would with a conventional switch from lights on to lights off, allows you to run a 13 on / 11 off, but only 1 of my tents has this...

Hello there Sir. I use an 8 pot flood & drain system that is roughly 70% clay pebbles / 30% rockwool croutons with a 180 litres res, and have an 8 pot Wilma drip fed system that uses 80% rockwool croutons and 20% clay pebbles that i use the same nutrients in. I dissolve the AA in a jug of water...

There are 2 types of silica, the most common is potassium silicate K20 - Si which is a highly alkaline solution which is a good PH up, and there is silicic acid which is a very weak alkaline which is refered to most commonly as bio silica which has very little effect on PH but if im not mistaken...

Ive experienced shock when going from 630w of CMH to1980w of Quantum Boards ( not even close to ran at full power ), i beleive it was due to the change in light as I didnt need to disturb the medium as they were in the final pots at the time of tansfer, ive been trying to find the info that i...

I also induce a long dark cycle before starting the 12/12, usually 36 hours just to let the bitches know what time it is :cool:

L-Amino Acids mate. I use the Aminos by RAW NPK that help to keep Ca in solution and can even reduce/eliminate calcium deposits and reintroduce them into solution, they also enbale the roots to take up Ca at an increased rate. But I use Clay/Rockwool Hydro so it works for me, so im not sure how...

Ive read tons of posts asking the same question. Myself I tend to let the plant decide when day 1 of flower starts. If you havnt let the plant reach maturity and you flip, you will see an extended period of veg like growth until she starts chucking pistils, as I grow from clones, even they show...

Cheers bud. Ye I run them on 6 x HLG320H C1400b drivers on dimmers, and I didnt run them on that run anywhere near to max wattage, and it still stalled them. Just started a run with 10 x Inhouse Genetics Platinum Kush breath on them through veg and 2 weeks into flower on them, and Ive cranked...
