They are monsters mate, and so healthy looking well done.



Ahh sorry to hear mate that sucks, i hope it hasnt cut in to your total yield too much. We have had a ton of rain here too the ground is mush, and to think 18 months ago we were in a drought running out of water with burning embers bouncing off the ho.se.
I think its like anything in life hard work pays off.
I'm not the smartest cunt but I have a crack.

So true mate, i'm definitely not the sharpest tool either but i try and learn something new every day and go until my back tells me to stop. :D

Small update on my first grow, the 4 plants on the back right i transplanted a few days ago to test my soil mix. They loved it, greened up and growth picked up so i went ahead and transplanted the rest yesterday.

I only had 10 x 2 gallon fabric pots, i wasnt expecting such a high germination rate so 3 of the girls got the 5 gallon pot treatment.

A couple of plants had a little yellow on the bottom sets of leaves, but overall I was really impressed with the root development and overall health.

The new soil mix is mostly an organic soil with a light mix of Searles 5 in 1 (Thanks reza92), peat moss, Whoflungdung, Sea-Mungus, chicken manure, perlite and a dash of dolomite lime. Looks ok to me

Todays task is cutting some more of these pot risers

watever the packet says.
prolly not ment to but I put mpk on em early in flower I just wanted em to flower cause last year was shit l. late flower.
Na mpk early on in flower won’t hurt. That extra p early would have been good. Can add some potassium sulfate (potash) or kool bloom now to help them finish.

50 ml of Dr Greenthumbs hydrolsate.
50ml ogs aloe and kelp ferment.
and last 2 to 3 weeks been using pure crop 1, 100ml.
was using 10 litres but doing 15 now as the sprayer is 15 max.

I spotted these plastic pavers in the Bunnings nursery section. I get 6 pot risers out of one paver sheet to fit in 250mm saucers, they raise the fabric pots 1 inch https://www.bunnings.com.au/cirtex-pebblelock-0-5m-permeable-pavers_p0215399

Great job LR, gunna be a jungle in there
Thanks mate, the seeds germinated better then i expected. So i gabbed a second 4x4 tent, and i will flip 9 to flower young i figure this will get some finished flower in the shortest time possible. The other 5 i will let veg longer in the other tent before flipping, and take a few clones from and give that a try too.

No you don't. Don't have an exhaust or an intake in my room... Why would you want an exhaust if using CO2? Just pissing money down the drain.
some people exhauste sealed setups at lights off. Co2 during lights off is counter intuitive and a waste as plants need oxygen at night.

Yeah some people do, it's not needed though. There's no negative effects from high CO2 levels at night, so if you exhaust you are just going to have to replenish it when lights come on. I like to let my CO2 build up at night ;) my tank doesn't even squirt til a few hours after lights on. If I exhausted at night I would go through tanks 25-30% faster, and I can better control the environment with the room sealed.
