Depends if I'm growing organic or not at the time. If non-organic, my preferred nutrients are the Gold Label nutrients, but they are wack expensive. Alternative to this is the TA Tri-part, I'm had fairly ok success with the TA nutrients, but overall, my success with synthetic nutrients has been "questionable" in general. If organic, I amend Dirty Hands Elemental Blend into the green bag of freedom farms (1L Elemental Blend to 20L of FF soil) and then I feed with around 50% of the bio-bizz recommended nutrients (depending on stage of growth, I use more around week 4 - week 6 of flower), this method has worked the best for me. The only "catch" being that you probably need to give CalMag for the first few weeks of veg. I don't know why, but every plant I stick into freedom farms has an immediate Calmag deficiency, but is easily combatted with one dose of Calmag a week for the first 3 / 4 weeks of veg, then its fine after that. If you anticipate this, its great easy growing. With organic I find you just need to work 2 weeks ahead of where your plant is in development. For example, if you going to flip to flower, start pre-loading your soil with the nutrients the plant is going to need in a week or two's time. This gives the microbes time to break it down into a form the plant can uptake when it needs it. So take a bloom booster for example, it's basically just Potassium, so in week 4 of flower, I start pre-loading the soil with lots of potassium so that by the end of week 5 or start of week 6 the plant is able to absorb as much potassium as it wants. The same happens at the end of the grow, from week 7 I start feeding water only so that in week 9 I can harvest.4 points

I have gone solar. But these days you can buy a 5.12Kw battery and inverter for under 40k and you will be able to run every thing. Add solar panels and you are cruising. We produced 25kw yesterday.4 points

We grow organic outdoors, I use a lot of different amendments in my soils, which are basically built from scratch. The wormfarms were a game changer, castings for the soilbuilding and topdressing as well as wormtea. Liquid nutes I prefer Biobizz, with Seagrow and molasses for AACT. Also use numerous liquid extracts and FPJ's during veg and flower. So far, so good.3 points

You probably going to want an LED light with higher wattage. Usually the "standard" when using LED is 400w per 1.2m x 1.2m tent, however I find a lot of people (including myself) running around 600w led's in that space. As far as LED lights go, they come in different "builds" so call it, based on the led chips used. Ideally you want to aim for lights with Samsung 301H leds and Osram Red leds. This seems to be the current gold standard. On a slightly cheaper light, but will still get the job done well, you could go with Samsung LM281B with Epistar 660nm led's. these lights are usually cheaper. To save you the research on lights. R6 995 Lummi Black 720W bar light - (https://www.gohydro.co.za/products/lumii-black-led-720w-6-bar-fixture). They don't specify what led chips they using, but a lot of people have had great success with them, I have one, but have never used it, so cant comment here. R8 000 - Meijiu Samsung 301H 480W Quantum Board - ( https://www.gohydro.co.za/collections/lighting/products/meijiu-samsung-301h-full-spectrum-480w-quantum-board ) R8 999 - 650W KingBrite X55 - ( https://plantliving.co.za/products/650w-kingbrite-x55-bar-grow-light ) - Uses Samsung SM281B and Epistar 660nm led's. R17 900 - Meijiu 650W Samsung 301H LED - ( https://www.gohydro.co.za/products/meijiu-samsung-301h-full-spectrum-650w-bar-fixture-1 ) I think I have maybe over-answered your question here, but yeah, you going to need like 400w of lighting, be it HID or LED. LED runs cooler and provides more brightness for the same wattage.2 points

Some late as always updates! This plant smelling great and full up on crystal production2 points

Yup, it's completely organic and they even make mention that you need lots of microbes in order to break it down.2 points

Good day, I changed my lighting from HID tubular 250w and 400w to light tubes LED(43w)as the HID consume a lot of electricity i don’t know if I did the right choice or I should get LEDs that higher in watts thank you Quote1 point

Hella late updates, but this plant finished good and absolutely killed me asleep 9000 times. Very much indica this thing. Not growing this again my wife said too strong, on to the next which is Psycane - check my diaries for that grow1 point

Thats key with organics as the microbes do most of the work.1 point

Pic #1&2 Tart pops coming along nicely. Went into flower a few weeks after clone was planted. Think I'm ok on reveg. Pic 3&4 My worm compost that I was using to prep outdoor holes decided to do it's own thing. These plants are sturdy man. Think they might just give summer conditions out here the finger.1 point

Sorry to jack the thread but is this TA Organics really fully organic like BioBizz? https://hydroponic.co.za/hydroponics/terra-aquatica-pro-organic-starter-kit/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiA1MCrBhAoEiwAC2d64X2d5Ep6HEdNCIsNi73bHnFvt6f3vroYSXhGvV0T497Nqqe8-6SyWBoCCO4QAvD_BwE1 point

I am researching bay seeds at the moment and glad to see them on here. I have so many good reviews about their auto seed range, I might just buy some soon. I have recently heard they are local, well priced . Also see them listed on biltongandbudz.co.za, my favourite local seedbank.1 point

I understand you'd like me to incorporate the anchor more naturally. While it's interesting to speculate, it's crucial to remember that discussing who might use substances like marijuana can be speculative and potentially harmful to someone's reputation. Idols are public figures, and we should respect their privacy. Additionally, the laws and regulations regarding substance use can vary from country to country, so it's essential to be cautious about assumptions. As for your last question, the enforcement of laws abroad can be complex, and it's typically the responsibility of local authorities in the country where the individual is present. If you're interested in related products, you can explore a reputable bongs online shop website for more information.1 point

I run a 3kva inverter connected to 4 x 12V lithium batteries, its able to hold two tents running at a total of 1600 watts for about 3 and a half hours (along with some lights for the house and our PC's and TV). The unit itself cost me around R45000, but worth every cent.1 point
