I like the look of those stands for your pots. Where did you get them?

@MYNS have you germinated your seeds yet?

Members can only come 1st in an SOTM once every 12 months, or 2nd and/or 3rd twice every 12 months.

@Fridge just a heads up

but to be straight, i wanna try the TA stuff... everyone who has touched it has improved dramatically in their grows... they gotta be doing something right...right??

Well... every 3 part nute other than theirs has essentially been trying their best to copy them... that says it all really. No disrespect to them but EHG... as opposed to GHE... FFS c'mon! They even admitted it was intentional

Ja, but I just hate the drama... And insta just overflows with it...

My long term goals for my lines are not just to get into home grows... 

From next spring totemic is filling a few fields, and a few greenhouses. The brand is here to serve the local market, and an international (probably dropshipping) pop-up seedbank isn't going to damage that

 

Fair enough bru. At least it's all documented here if any shitty accusations come to light

Either it's a crazy coincidence (which I highly doubt), or this "breeder" most likely came across you on Instagram and found inspiration for the shitty random bulk seeds they bought and are now reselling.

They honestly could be labelling random genetics as chocolate gelato. The similarities are far too obvious... you describe the line as "carrying a sweet, fruity aroma on a subtle spiciness" and they describe it as "Sweet, Fruity, Spicy". The lineage listed is of course exactly the same as well.

They look to be new on the scene, judging by their google reviews (probably fake), but are establishing themselves quite quickly by the looks of it. I get your vibe of wanting to let these guys do what they do but you don't want it to get to a point where people are wondering whether you are the counterfeiter. Maybe setting the record straight in a IG post, which you can refer people back to, might help to just make sure you get ahead of the shitstorm that may brew. Just a thought

General Hydroponics and Terra Aquatics are the same, not so?

Use to be GHE and now changed to TA?

I was wondering why TA's bottles looked identical to GHE!

I would like to try out Organics Matter but don't see it around the Cape(maybe I'm blind).

I know Futurama stocks it in the cape, dunno who else

Welcome @donnob

Decent setup you got going there

I see you signed up twice for the growoff. Did you receive the link?

Very much agree with you on the signs.. but ^^ if you feed every second day Cal and Mag.. is excluded with his Ph range. First look at the pic, my head went: Stop that pyrol crap  but he didn't used any.

I didn't see him mention that so ya definitely not Ca def then. To throw another spanner in the works, someone suggested he spray for mites... which could lead to more burn and even more confusion. So @Keegan I would really hold back on the pesticide spray for now until you've addressed the current issue, which definitely isn't caused by mites

@Marzcanna any particular reason why this was posted under conspiracy theories?

The burned sides of the "teeth" point a bit to Nitrogen toxicity... very hard to diagnose when you don't have one of those leaves in your hand to feel it. 

That was my first thought but Ca def displays similar. Could be many issues working hand in hand here. Bottom line is the plant has been getting too much attention and just needs to be left alone now for a while.

@Keegan would you be able to give us a pic of the entire plant?

Dunno hey... that kinda looks like overwatering to me... or even nute burn

edit: after a second look I'd say either calcium def or overwatering. There may be mite damage but the most visible issues there are not caused by mites

Been a week now since the seeds went into soil. Very evenly matched between the 3 at the moment 

They got their first dose of ExploGrow last night
