Skunk in Autopots:my 3rd indoor grow

Good to see some nice big Aussie grown plants, subscribed!

Where'd you source the orginals? I'm a bit over my bagseed...lol

Hey Knickers ,,,,,,,,,,, I got the clones from a m8 how got them from a m8 who got them from someone else who was selling clones... they were going for $150 but we got them for half price.... an excellent investment they have turned out to be.... but I also grow from seed and have some mothers on the boil ... I would suggest you order some from a seed bank,if you can't get hold of clones... I have never had a problem with ordering seeds... :weed:
 
Any banks you could suggest? Are you super cautious/stealthy when ordering? I haven't ordered seeds before and not too sure how many precautions are necessary.

Thanks for the help! Also what nutes are you using?
 
don't use your own name and don't get them sent to the place you are going to grow in... and you should be fine.... most of the established seed banks are fine to use I've even got my seeds when I've ordered from the cheap sites ((cannabisseeds.com)) but if you want the great stable genetics buy from seedsman,,,they have heaps of breeders on their books... I'm using THC A and B for flowering... :^)
 
Hey Petey ,,,,, I have been growing outdoor for over twenty years ((on and off)),,,, but indoor only 2 years..... its been a lot to get my head around but I am finally making some progress.. :^)

Where can I find info on THC nutes? Google isnt helping me :P
 
here's a photo of the label .. I get ie from my local hydro shop ...its run by 2 Dutch brothers who claim it is their own product....but I'm sure ,,if you can't get your hands on it there are plenty of other brands to choose from that would work just as well....

Hi Jats,

As Knickers, I don't know THC A+B. Google says a lot about THC but not regarding Total Horticultural concentrate:-?

I use flora series from GHE, well known in hydro.
Seems it works good in coco, with a good PH buffer.

As I told you, my young girls were not very happy : yellow head and leaves, plants beginning to die...
I know my mistake : the first hand water in little pot was without nuts...

This is an error of soil grower : never nut before 3week because nuts are already in the soil.
-> no nuts in the coco!!!!!!!

second hand water direclty in autopot with nuts but they really suffered.

I think now they are alive:lol: as you can see on the picture. we can see the head is green again but we can see below the head that they had a hard time...

see the pics below + my grow room (autopot/ drybox/ mother+cut)

-> the cut (northernlight + white diesel from sensiseeds) are for my second box where I will do a grow 100% soil because I'm a coco newbie as you can see and I want to have something to smoke if I fail the coco project:eyesmoke:

Bye

Poldijk

Hey Plodijk,,,,,, I know.... I made the same "mistake" with my seedlings they were the first ones I have grown in co co and I did'nt start feeding mine until week 3 but prob should have started in week 2.... still we live and learn... it looks to me like your plants are over the worst of it..and they look like lovely plants too......I like the look of your setup too.. your mother looks like a yummy mummy to me.... hopefully its smooth sailing from here.... I think you will Love co co as much as I do,, once you have finished your grow with it.. :^)
 
Hey jatz re molasses, I believe it can also be used in hydro/aero with good results. It's about proving the carbs and micro nutes to your plants, especially mid flower. Not sure of quantities for autopots but I
sure the info is out there. I also think because coco is an organic medium the microbes in the molasses may be of some benefit?
 
Hey Knickers,,,, I'm kinda scared of using it....so at this point I'm going to follow my intuition and leave it alone....
 
its tap water..... the ph is around 6.5 constantly,,,and I haven't changed the res since I set it up(( I add about 18 litres water/food every 3 days or so))...I just started adding flower food about a week after I flipped the switches and keep an eye on the levels... Because the water is not recycled it is possible for me to manage it this way ..oh I'll have some more pics up on sunday.....and oh my.......are they ever taking off.... :^)
 
6.5 is as alkaline as I would like my water to be. Does coco grow better with a higher pH? What's the ppm of your tap water?
 
Hey All...... Its 3 1/2 weeks since I flipped the switch on my girlz......and they are starting to chunk up a bit now as well as still growing about 3 inches a day.... I can virtually see them growing...beautiful

the seedlings did freak out a bit....but they are getting better everyday..... :)

I think coco can handle up to 7..... I'm not sure about the tap water ppm because a friend has the meter at his place ((he's had it for a couple of wks now ,,I should get it back))
but I have measured it and it was within the exceptable levels,,,1600..? I think... I'll measure it again when I get my meter back and let you know...:-)

I don't think your tap water is 1600 ppm dude, that seems crazy high. My tap water is 120 out of the faucet. The plants are looking incredible though dude, you are killing it
 
I am a little confused about where I pulled that number from,,,but I'll get back to it in the nxt day or so.... HAHAHAH I can't believe you called me dude twice....LOL :lol:
