Welcome New Members!

well im growing some bagseed which was just mixed amongst may other seeds I started in June and im growing in 5 in 1 searless plant food with perlite, some nice topsoil and some water crystals but i soaked them in Yates: Seaweed Booster, mainly because i didnt have enough money at the time to fill a nice 2ft hole up with good bags of of fert and plant food. anyways my plant has been flowering for 2 1/2 months and is smelling like pure mango it stands at around 5 ft and has been fairly successful for a first outdoor grow

Unfortunately the visitors to Amsterdam are the ones who did it.
If people would respect and obey other country's customs and laws
they would not do a thing about it, but people have to get stupid and
act like animals, disrespect everyone and everything and this is what
happens just look at our own city parks! any ?'s graffiti, garbage, tags
broken glass, kids can't play and then we take it to another country!
As for our own problems, the politics of weed are deep and complicated
there is too much money involved for the gov'mt to leave it alone it has to
be taxed and regulated for them to be happy. Unless there is a mass uprising
of people in a concerted effort it isn't going to happen in my lifetime.
Sometime we just should be happy for today, I grew up under the strictest
drug laws in the nation and never spent a single day in jail! because I respect
people and don't flaunt it in their faces.
I've been growing for 47 years and have a perfect record.

Why does ph change?
I have to lower mine daily.
from start 5.6 to 6.3 in a day is this normal?
my nutes have no info at all
but after long chat with guy at hydro shop he said to follow instructions exactly.. ie 4ml per litre that cranks 1600 ppm ...... sounds hectic..

and any ideas what to do with this bubba its just so so thick n bushy...
Should I trim some leaf or something?

I have bubble rez pumping to plants dripping back to rez.....
have a piece if screen sitting on top of her sometimes ..

Its so bushy if I water it with foliar feed .. come back next day undergrowth has wetpatches still ..with fan blowing on her too

Do not foliar feed, how often does your pump cycle?
You might need to drop your ec a little the plant is a little over fed
you can also raise your light. This will make the plant stretch.

Twice a day is right but it might be getting to much nutes.
Foliar can cause mold and fungus on the inside of a plant that thick.

I have tap water at 8.4 ph
and ppm of 130..
Is this considered hard water?
Is it normal my plant is so finniky..?
or is it possible that I do need a micro nute sup. To counter what may be considered hard water

That is a very high ph for canna the ph should be 5.5-6.5.
Is this reading by a meter or municipal standard.
Are you using desalinated seawater?

Hello.. I am starting to grow. I wanted to know how much nitrogen my plants should have they are about 5 inches and have probably 4 sets of leaves. My fertiliser npk is 22.6.12 is that to high in nitrogen.. I know it is for flowering but I'm not up to that... Another question. One of my plants probably the biggest about six inches does not have any serated leaves at all just the round ones. Is that weird? Thanks guys

Hi mate welcome
im fairly new aswell but advice I have recieved suggest less is more ..
seedling stage should be like a quarter mix of suggested on bottle..
probally none at all just water..
if ph is ok .. the plant searches for water n nutes as it needs it.
I have learnt to feed plant a touch more nutes till it shows signs of too much then back it off a bit watch ph and see how u go... im sure someone will correct ne on something.. please do as it all helps

I hanks for replying. I probable should have added it comes with two sized spoons and I added about half of a 2.5 g spoon to about 400 mls of water between 3 plants. Only one is in a big pot so it got a bit more. And they had a bit of a normal water in the morning so I just gave them a little bit. But any other input is much appreciated

That fert. is way, way to hot, your plants need a very mild mix right now like 4-4-4
or even less. The description you gave on the plant does not sound like cannabis
cannabis has serrated leaves at the first set.
If possible go to a hydroponic store and get a fert. made for cannabis, until then
just give plain water.

It came with the same seeds... What if I just dilute the fert heaps

It is made for tomatoes fruit and vegetables.. Not sure if that matters but I read they need the same nutrients as tomatoes
