    Rusty's 1200w "Amsterdam Bubblegum" Hydro/DWC

    I love Cannazyme, but its 10 times more expensive per liter than H & G's multizyme due it its concentration. I've been using Canna for years but would like to see if H & G is better value. The guys at Wollongong Hydro are taking Canna off their shelves and replacing it with H & G. I think I...

    Rusty's 1200w "Amsterdam Bubblegum" Hydro/DWC

    I desperately need to upgrade my system. My pots are wearing out, magnetic 400 watters are getting old and noisy (600w lumatec dig, bulbs, shades $1000) , I need 3 separate tents (flower, veg, breeding $1000), better fans and 2 carbon filters ($1200) and I also want to switch to House and...

    Defoliation - removing fan leaves for higher yield

    Beautiful. I also prefer colas the size of my arm. I have experimented with various forms of mutilation (pinching, FIMming, topping, LST etc.) over the years and I found that removing fan leaves reduced the harvest significantly. I've found that buds in the shade have far more trichs and...

    Rusty's 1200w "Amsterdam Bubblegum" Hydro/DWC

    I only just realised you had a grow going. I'm only one week into flower but its a six week strain. When are you planning to harvest? I'm hoping for late August (27th).

    Got a layer of foam in my reservoir

    BB knows his shit dude. My advice is to get an EC meter A.S.A.P. From those pics I'm seeing a lot of stretch and some nute burn. When I started out initially I had no idea what EC/PPM was. I was putting the recommended dosages of nutrients and additives into the res without considering...

    Rusty's 1200w "Amsterdam Bubblegum" Hydro/DWC

    The male is Amsterdam Bubblegum. It was by far the biggest plant in the grow. I am planning on breeding the "AB" with my own strain ("SS"), the "DB", maybe the SLH and I'll also get some more AB seeds too if I have the room. I would love to get my hands the floja genetics. That strain looks mad.

    Topping in flower

    I generally try to finish topping and FIMming before I switch over to flower. I've found that it causes weird regrowth (foxtails?), retards budding and kind of defeats the purpose. Instead of two smaller colas, you get one smaller cola with two manky, leafy, green bits on the end. If you really...

    What water temp

    How cold is rainwater usually? Plants love that shit. I grow in R/DWC where cool water temps are essential for plant health (I try to keep my water below 20ºC/68ºF). Mold and fungus thrive at higher temps, plants absorb less water, water evaporates causing a concentration of nutrients in the...

    Rusty's 1200w "Amsterdam Bubblegum" Hydro/DWC

    I got some decent pics last night but it takes way too long to upload. I've got my DIY bubble cloner going. Its just two plastic drawers that I've sanded and sprayed. Cutting the holes was a bit of a bitch but the rest was freaking simple. Its got three different flavors, "Sturdy Sherbet"...

    I took Jimmy's advice a month ago about using Superthrive. It sure as shit doesn't do everything it says on the packaging but it's still great stuff. I think they sell 120 ml for $12 on ebay, IMO it's definitely worth the "outlay". 6 days into flowering.........

    New Member! Taking over an existing grow.

    Damn dude, you really have your hands full. Nice setup I have had to "strengthen" circuits before but it involved trial, error, electrocution and blowing things up before I got it right. If you're a legal grower you should really get a licensed electrician to wire it up. I think I remember...

    Damn dude, I'm up around 2.0 - 2.2 EC by the time I switch to flowering. I was told to keep feeding them until they show an adverse reaction. At 650ppm I would save a fortune. Do you have a grow journal? EDIT: My stuff smokes great, gets you high and tastes good. I put that down to a 10 day...

    I will be here, waiting in anticipation. I spend about $250 per grow at the moment on a mix of Canna and Dutch master nutes and additives. I am going to switch to House and Garden once I finish off this grow as its far more concentrated and will end up being cheaper in the long run. In...

    Your OCD ROCKS!! It looks like a laboratory. What brand of nutrients do you use? My grow/bong room is always a complete mess and I definitely smoke, swear and eat around them.

    It goes without saying, but that is a very tidy setup. Love your work.

    Does Sea Breeze affect MJ development?

    Makes no difference dude. I am less than 200m from a beach and I have no problems. If anything, it's better because of the stability of temps close to the sea.
