I got 11 going in total and 2 of them are regs so will end up with at least 9 plants all going well.
The ww x ak and the bb cheese are gonna be big uns.
Those pics are about a week old so they are even bigger now.I've a feeling mold be prevalent this year if the weather continues as is so gotta be in the ball with them when the time comes.

Thanks Jenks! Fairly happy so far. Just hope i aint got root rot.
Jay its a scrog style grow. But unfortunately a few branches got stubborn and shot up. Plus i didnt weave enough of the screen hence the gapsYup its a blue lab meter. Measured the stalks and the average is about 14' and the tallest is 17'
Scrog is my favourite method of growing, has to be the best way to get the most from a plant...
you running dwc or hempy..? Was looking at one those blue labs.. Seams to be the bollocks,
I have a blue lab as well.No calibrating or storing in solution makes life a lot easier, they'll even be taking the ppm of the water when cleaning under the tap.
I'm very happy with it anyway.

Well the ww is looking amazing fred! Got a good bit of sunshine the last few weeks id say. Hopefully mold doesnt set in. weather has been so mixed recently hard to tell what would happen! Kinda tough of keeping track with peoples grow on this thread. if you dont visit for a week or so your 10-20 pages behind 
Jay i only got into scrog because of Scotyballs, Dr amber and a few others. Tis my second scrog grow. First one i lost to root rot but hopefully if this ends up a successful grow i shall be a very happy camper come harvest time! Yup the blue lab is awesome. got mine second hand for about 35e. its great for mixing and testing!

They really took off with the spell of fine weather we had for sure, they're still going well though and absolutely loving the fishmix.Well the ww is looking amazing fred!

Did you order seeds from them?
I read about them before so thought the site would have been gone by now, I'd contact the bank and do a chargeback.
The blue truncheon doesn't measure ph only ppm and ec.
What ph pen did you get?

Yeah had ordered a couple of beans, glad i didnt order loads though..!!
Got a ph from flee bay but not one of the yellow ones that are flying around.. came with calibration fluid... may just get the hang of things now...!
I had one of those yellow pieces of crap from ebay, the one I had was wildly inaccurate but you may be lucky with yours.
Still worth investing in a decent one when you can, you'll get a Milwaukee ph pen on ebay for about 35-40 quid delivered or keep an eye out in advert.ie or donedeal, I got my hortilab on adverts for 25 quid, they are about 60 new.

Ahh well honestly i think i have root rot. There are quite a lot of sick leaves. All i can do is wait and see. Yup the last grow was a Northern lights scrog that i lost to root rot. DAMN YOU PYTHIUM!!! DAMN YOU STAIGHT TO HELL
Well all you can do is hope that no mold gets on her. You have any preventive measures? Like any spray to prevent or stop mold?
Ahh Jay feel bad for ya. Ive only ever gotten seeds from pickandmix. Great service. Ive only ever ordered twice from them but all was good. Ya you should get a blue lab meter. Although its not Ph only ppm meter. But still great though. My fucking ph pen ran out of those small watch batteries and ive just been using a ph indicator for the past few weeks to see what the ph is. Not even close to accurate. Really got to get some batteries!
I find it good anyway, I calibrate about once a fortnight and it is never off by more than 0.1.Thats the Ph pen i have too fred. got it like three years ago and barely used it until last grow. Thought it was ok. worked anyways so i was happy out
I killed seedlings when using the cheap ebay one.
I have Bordeaux Mixture here, that's for powdery mildew and I will get something else soon, fruithillfarm.com have some good preventatives and are based in Cork so delivery is quick with them.

Ive never calibrated my one. Just been half arsing it. But when i get the new batteries tomorrow im defo going to calibrate it. Have the liquid ph solution so will use that as a guideline. Ahh well your sorted so. All prepared anyway. And ud want to be after hearing about this storm warning :/
The storm is the last thing I wanted to hear so will have to try and shelter them in the morning, don't want to be losing branches on the big ones and it might be too much for the smaller ones.
When is it forecast for?
