Fuck all going on here AE, growth has slowed way down because the bucket was dry for a whole day and I didn't realise. Fan leaves are really drooping and curling but I think it should be ok now after her feed. Are you going scrog with your grow? You have so many plans I get confused with you sometimes lol.

hahahaha yes it gets a bit mental when i let the brain ramble.. but you guys are a great sounding board so i can be forgiven for that.;)

going hempy or a "hempy for dummies" aproach if you like, with a scrog screen and a slight vert lift to the edges so to maximise overall area, just waiting on a mother now to progress....

so be prepared for lots and lots of both silly and outragous questions hahahahaha...

oh and how long are you getting from the "res" in your buckets?

i have some empty 10litre paint tubs here, i plan to make a 1" res at the bottom and fill with perlite and a 70/30 compost perlite blend as medium on top. this will be my final pot.....

Sounds like a plan, just dont use organic nutes as they would get nasty sitting in the rez. Getting about 3 days in between waterings now, going to water everyday to maximise the growth, she really doesnt like being treated rough.

my seedling is coming back to life under the cfl and the cobra is doing well under the leds i just gave her a liter of water with some pk 13/14 and a little cal mag, she drank it all up with no run off so good signs from her,

take it easy on the coco nutes cause i was following a chart and it was way too strong and it tends to burn the plant more than organic food i was using in the past like biobizz, got a plastic bin and drilled a hole in it ready for hempy so i hope this seedling make a go of it

Seems everyone is agreed that the Bluelab is the best. Bout 80 quid.
Probably get it in a fortnight. Its the last thing I need for a nice little setup so might as well

yep, you have to have the gear to get the results...

and belive me i hate haveing to pay for shit, but you really need things like a good ph pen and stuff...

great news kang, light at the end of the tunnel and all that..;) do you think any of the problems were genetics, just given that some react to nutes different than others and so on....

My perpetual plans were 10 week strain (probably advertised as an 8 weeker is best), 1 veg and 2 flower rooms. Veg room gets first batch of seedlings, 5 weeks later (let them get from seedling to full veg but just barely) they go into flower room number one whilst second batch of germed seedling go into dirt in veg room. 5 weeks later these go into flower room number two.

Replace these with more germed seedlings, which 5 weeks later will be able to go into flower room number one (cos its crop will have had 10 weeks flower). When these seedlings go into flower replace with new germed seedlings for flower room 2 (which will now have had 10 weeks).

Rinse and repeat brother.

You could do this with 1 plant per cycle or an infinite number, and it's assuming minimum number of flower rooms and limited veg space. If youd say four flower rooms and one veg you'd get an 8 weeker and flower from clone every 2 weeks...that's my ultimate setup...maybe when Iv escaped the rent trap ;)

My problem is I can smoke them far faster than I can grow them :(

bahahahaha.. same here... the double flower room is a crackin idea, i don`t think i could manage it space wise tho, so the time will have to be spent vegging i suppose, i`m locked into the scrog at the min .. but failing that your setup might be worth a shot, even little and offen is better than a lump sum at times....
