    DO I NEED A BIGGER POT??

    Hello all just finished my grow after returning to drain to waste coco. The grow was very disappointing but could have easily been due to other factors (young plants in veg getting lockout maybe). When previously growing in coco drain to waste I used 20 litre pots but after some research I...

    Why have Athena changed their Feed Chart

    Just an update on the Athena Nutrients. I have changed to Shogun mid grow and throwing the Athena away, what a waste of over £300. The plants just don't like it, probably my worst grow to date that hasn't had an explainable cause to be so bad. 2 different rooms, 3 different strains. Some of...

    UK GROWERS AND ELECTRIC PRICES

    I live at the end of a long rough lane with a neighbor half way down. Few years ago I was getting burst car tires every week, the bloody idiot was burning pallets and using the ash from his stove full of nails to fill the pot holes.>:(

    UK GROWERS AND ELECTRIC PRICES

    I was conned into buying panels about 8 years ago before I started growing (been growing 6 years). It was only since I have been growing they have become useful, and then only to a certain degree and obviously certain times of the year in Northern UK.

    UK GROWERS AND ELECTRIC PRICES

    I have solar panels and they do help a bit but not this time of year. Off topic but I was reading about a guy in Ireland got 5 years for 19 plants?? Sounds madness is this true?

    UK GROWERS AND ELECTRIC PRICES

    Hello, we all know how much the electric now costs. Are many people quitting the growing game and either stopping smoking or now buying off the meter by-passers? Reason I ask is because I have developed a few new grow related products that I had intended to introduce later this year but may now...

    Why have Athena changed their Feed Chart

    Anyone know why Athena changed their feed chart? The UK one says feed a max of 2.7ec on the heavy feed chart yet the one on their website says feed at 3.0ec all the way through. This is the feed chat we get in the UK

    Advice mixing Athena Pro by PPM/EC rather than weight.

    No mine hasn't but my mate has a full tub of bloom and its in one piece it's crumbly not powder. He goes off weight and he has deficiencies or more likely a cal mag lock out.

    Advice mixing Athena Pro by PPM/EC rather than weight.

    I have just re read my post and I haven't worded it very well. What I wanted to ask is if I just wanted to make a full 200litre res up disregarding the stock tank (say I was at the end of a run) how do I mix the res by PPM of firstly core and then make it up with the correct amount of Bloom to...

    Advice mixing Athena Pro by PPM/EC rather than weight.

    Thanks PJ the point is the bloom and grow absorb moisture adding weight so it knocks the whole mix out of wack. My Athena is just loose and not full sachets.

    Advice mixing Athena Pro by PPM/EC rather than weight.

    Just had my Athena Pro delivered and would like some advise. I have been reading that many people are getting what look like Cal/Mag deficiencies. This you tube video makes sense to me. The guy took leaf samples. It turns out that when mixing by weight the Bloom/Grow parts can become heavy...

    Another question does the higher EC feeding kill beneficial bacteria?

    Understanding Athena

    I am talking 1.8 with normal Nutrients (Vitalink). Are you talking you run 3.0 with Athena? If so what is your run off reading?

    Understanding Athena

    What I do not understand is what makes their feed (Athena) so different from other feeds that it can be fed at such high levels??? 3EC of any other feed I have used would fry my plants I normally push to 1.8.
