Looking mighty fine Guapo! What size lights are you running there? What about the res size? Grow on bro.

Hey Faller and thanks for your reply. I took the mother plant clones from some plants (grown from seed) that were at day 35 of veg, just before I switched lighting to 12/12. It's not really stressing me out, I was just curious as to what effect it might have if I do a grow using clones taken...

Hi all, One of the mother plants I established a few months ago seems to progressing further and further into flower and I have no idea why? I took the clone for the mother plant while the donor plant was still in veg and it has been under 18/6 or 24/0 80w CFL ever since. The other two...

I did a bit of minor stem/screen training today as there were plant tops sticking a good couple of inches above the screen. Being fairly new to Scrog I don't really have a clear strategy of how best to direct stems to so I'm just really moving outwards towards the screen edges like wheel spokes...

Hey Mustang, How much 3% H2O2 you should use add depends on how often you want to add it. If you want to add H2O2 on a daily basis then 5ml per gallon = 35ml of 3% H2O2 for your res daily would be a good amount. If you want to add it say 3 times a week then use 10ml per gallon = 70ml of 3%...

The calibration solutions are just for using to calibrate your meters which you should ideally do every month or if you start getting results on the meter that don't seem right. You won't need much at all in your case and the meter should hopefully arrive with a couple of packs of calibrating...

Nice! Well it sounds like you found yourself one of those good hydro-dudes then :) Grow on bro!

Can't help you there I'm afraid as I live in Australia. Suggest maybe just try doing a forum search here for a meter? I ended up buying a Bluelab Combo Meter which wasn't cheap but is bloody awesome. Good to see my bros in New Zealand coming up with the very nice cannabis-growing goods :)

Hi AB, Can't answer your questions about FoxFarm nutes as I use General Hydroponics Flora series of nutes in my DWC. EC (Electrical Conductivity) is a measurement of TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) and is generally recorded in ppm (parts per million). Basically this tells you how thick your...

I'm not so sure about the health of Tmac's root structure. The pictures of the healthy white roots don't belong to Tmac's plants. It looks like Tmac has roots growing but I can't see many feeding hairs on the roots which could mean nute uptake trouble. If you look at the pics of the plants that...

Hey Tmac, what nutes are you using? Are you measuring pH and ppms? If so what are they reading at? I don't know how the water farm is designed but I assume the reservoir is light-tight and the roots aren't being exposed to light on a regular basis? What is the temperature of the nute solution...

Shame, shame on you Hydro-Pusher-Man! What good is a multitude of free samples of what you need a shitload more of if you want to run with it an entire grow? They know you'll be back next week to buy a full bottle of at least one of the free samples once it runs out after you dump the sample...

Hey Sadie, those trichomes didn't submit the way I had hoped they would. My first go at making bubble hash wasn't an outstanding success. In the YouTube videos everyone's hash comes out pressed nicely and it crumbles easily when they chop it up before drying it. Mine just stayed clumped together...

DAY 6 of 12/12: Nice unseasonably-cool summer weather is hanging around this week much to mine and my cabinet's joy, meaning my garage has an ambient temp of roughly 75F/24C. The cabinet has min-max temps of 68-81F/20-30C. 2 days ago I added 15ml of GH Floralicious Plus to the res (1ml per...

Hey thanks SugarBear! How you going sir? Thanks for that. My pH is back at 5.8 today so I think I will just leave it there for now. DAY 3 of FLOWER: Nice cool weather means cabinet temps at 77F/25C and res temps at 66F/19C without any frozen bottles at present. Have included a few pics...

Thanks for that chart rslaven! Looks like there is nothing wrong with always staying at the magic 5.8pH except for missing out on some Manganese. What are people's thoughts on dropping the pH down to 5.6 for a few days to get some Manganese in the girls' diet?

Cheers VO! I've enjoyed watching your grows along the way so I hope you enjoy mine. I Guess the veg stage is not the most exciting so now that I'm in 12/12 there might be a bit more action to post in the coming weeks. G.

SWITCH TO 12/12 : DAY 0 FLOWER (Day 46 from cutting) I like my tap water. It has a 70ppm and a ph of 7.0 with hardly any nasties in it and comes out of the tap at 70F/21C even during summer. Today I drained the res of veg nutes, refilled it with 15 gallons/58 liters of tap water and added...

I added the Scrog screen today as shown in the pics below. I was tempted to set the screen at 8" and start flowering but I ended up setting it at 10" as any extra vegging they do now will mean more bud later on. My screen frame is made of 20mm PVC pipe with metal eye hooks screwed around the...

Thanks rslaven. It isn't my dream setup but I think it makes pretty good use of what little space I have available to me for the whole cabinet. I would ideally like to use a 250w MH to veg but I just need to get another grow out of the way before I buy any more stuff so the HPS will have to do...
