I've been adding co2o2 at the moment. Is it pricey? I read about people making compost teas, is there plenty of bennies in that?

Yup. Couldn't stand the sight of its green roots no more so off they came. Gonna see if it won't regrow new roots like I just cloned it. I'm thinking I should trim back some leaves? Half of them have died so maybe I should just see which ones are OK and snip off the rest? Anyone got ideas?
It's in the outhouse/crapshack/back shitter enjoying a darker setting. I'm gonna keep it in flower so I've just halved the bloom nutes and once it's got a bit of a root system going I'll put it back in with the other. I know not to expect much if anything from final yield but it's more about finishing what I started now haha
Not even sure if it'll survive but it's been a fighter so far. I've got 5 more random bag seeds germinating atm, I'm getting more worried both of these fuckers are male anyway.
Staying positive, at least I've dialled in the perfect grow environment for the next lot.

Getting some good growth. 14 days in flower, although I noticed I was only on 13/11 by accident so I flipped it so only 11 on / 13 off. Might catch it up a bit with the darkness. I really should stop getting ripped before doing important things haha I was so confused as to why I haven't seen prominent preflowers.
It's gonna be a boy, I can feel the disappointment already. At least it's growing well. Talk about dialling it in - 1100ppm co2, 24C, 64% humidity. Quite happy.

Today's update. Dudes looking bushy, my fermentation is providing adequate co2, all is good except the fact it is shaping out to most definitely be a dude. Or hermie. I'll pull it soon. Hopefully my new batch of seeds will be ready to go in a few days.

Boy... Knew it.
There's still life in this baby. Might just surprise me.
This and more coming shortly via paper towel / plate method. Works for me almost every time. I'll get as many as I can going, veg for just 2 weeks and flip to find a female. Then try to either flip it back or clone if big enough.
Not giving in!

And here it comes. First one off the bench. I'll call this one Uno. 2 days since popping. 5 more still germinating with 1 peeking open. I hate the early stage. Reminds me of how much growth and waiting I'm in for lol
At least the first time I was kept busy tweaking and perfecting the fridge.

When you say root problems you mean there is a foliar spray to help root rot?

They can absorb water through there leaves, and survive quite awhile being sprayed twice a day, if you worry about nutes you can feed that way too at regular intervals.

The 1000w ebay leds are usually around 300 real wattage

3 days since popping and I've got some green stretching out looking for the sun. Taproot has grown about 3-4cm in a day.
Please be the girl I'm looking for uno, I will take good care of you and may even make you a mother one day!

I assumed it would be less, but not to that extent! Seems to be doing OK so far. What would my 300w eBay UFO led be then? Like 50w? Haha

It's good to know if I ever have root problems again, there's some "first aid" like that to help. Cheers mate

I just bought a kilowatt meter and found that my Illuminator jumbo ufo which is suppose to replace a 400 watt hps uses 150 watts at the wall and the Mars Hydro 300 pulls 136 watts at the wall

So does that mean it doesn't necessarily matter what brand you are using, nothing is what it seems?

Yeah unfortunately the companies muddied the waters with the way they advertise the models.
Basically from what I can tell is they multiply the number of led's in it by the wattage of each led, so if there are 100 5 watt led's it would be a 500 watt but if you run a led at max output it would burn out quickly so they run them at around 45% of maximum wattage so the 500 model would be about a 225 watt draw plus some more for fans and circuit resistance
