  1. Good stuff. Welcome. How's your planning for the summer outdoor season? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  2. Fed the Ladies this morning. Banana and apple smoothies with ecobuz molasses and some epsom. Happy girls. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  3. Also known as ''weather stripping''. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  4. Welcome. Any pics of the setup? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

  6. Hydro nutes are salt based and suitable for inert hydro mediums like coco and leca hence you need to ph etc..(you control everything) Soil is an intricate biosphere with many automatic internal regulating ''processes'' and contains additional elements/amendments as you mentioned as well as micro organisms(they do the work, but you have to keep them happy). The soil has the capacity to buffer your feeding to the plants required ph in the rootzones. By feeding living soil with hydro nutes you are damaging the soils natural buffering capacity and possibly killing off the natural miro organisms that facilitate normal feeding in soil. Basically causing a shit storm in the rootzone that will affect your plants negatively and making it very difficult to diagnose and repair. If you want to stay with soil, do a flush to get rid of the salt based stuff and aquire a ''micro'' innoculant to put the good beneficial organisms back in the soil and some organic nutes.

  7. Morning bruh, I grow organic in soil, but have done hydro. First thing. Hydroponic nutes in soil is going to give you all kinds of problems. In my opinion it's either hydro or organic, mixing the two is really problematic. Your plants are showing tip burn allready, so too strong nute mix and the leaves look ''hard/crispy''. 2nd plant also looks like early stages of N tox. Give us a rundown on your grow, indoor, outdoor, nutes, brand etc.. it'll help the more experienced hydro growers to comment on a possible solution. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  8. Aweh lekka ppl. Pic 4. The Fruit Punch line is on the edge of the next level. 2 best boys and girls. 2-3. Seedsman Lemonchello haze doing her thing. Smelling dank and skunky. 1,5,6,7. Fruitpunch ladies flowering out. Terpine profiles weren't impressive and the bloody Nanners in late flower don't help either. 8. Growing out some Gorilla X's and a wildcard Swazi bag that germed on the greenhouse floor in winter. It's will to live earned it a place and the vigour is clear being double the size. 9-10. The Purple Russian Express from Kalashnikof is not disappointing. Not a massive plant given the time of year, but she is more stinky spicy purple bud than anything else. 11. Some actual ''tomato'' trees bearing fruit. Staying organic with the feedings, supplementing the Seagrow and Ecobuz with banana and apple smoothies (incl wood ash and coffee grounds). Molasses and AACT keep the micro flora happy. Softsoap and canola spray for the aphids and whitefly. Had hoped there would be fewer bugs in winter. Only highlights the importance of IPM for all growers. Good growing all. Cheers.
  9. Agreed. Those leaves look hard, could be N to as well. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    Need advice

    It will also contain some humic and vulvic acids which are beneficial. But more ''micro innoculation'' than ''nutrient'' as@SkunkPharm mentioned. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  11. Agree with the bark(acidic) and ''nursery potting soil'' comments. Most ''store bought'' mixes are not ideal for cannabis-some are even lethal. Would suggest you look at aerating the mix as well by adding some perlite, it will also aid with drainage. Also with that size bag, go easy on the watering. Those size bags will take long to dry out, you risk the seedlings damping off. Those size seedlings need about 250ml every 3rd day only and no nutes untill about 3 weeks old.

  12. I use Tapatalk for a number of other forums incl 420SA - convenient to have them together, but have problems across the board. Browsing through threads and it stops...get a msg ''Tapatalk has stopped'' Replying with text is ok'ish but uploading anything is a problem. Did the restart and reload of the app to no avail. Could be handset related, but same ploblems on the S5 and A5. So I'm living with it for now, frustrating...but not the end of the world. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  13. I use Tapatalk only for quick browsing and even then it is problematic- freezes and stops but that is Tapatalk itself. Uploading pics is even worse, resorted to going via the website. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  14. Are you uploading from your phone or pc? Via 420sa website or using a platform like Tapatalk? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

  16. Cool bruh. Tea looks good. The ''teabag'' thing also messed with my setup- no vortex and all kinds of bits, sand and floaters etc. Tried a different technique, to avoid any solids in my brew bucket. Pour the ''solid ingredients'' from your teabag into a seperate bucket, add a few liters of water and stir vigorously to extract as much goodness and micro organisms as possible. Strain the ''mush'' and add that liquid to the brew bucket. Repeat. Then add nutrient source and molasses. It might not be 100% efficient at extracting all the goodness out of the solid material due to shorter contact time with the water, but its damn close. Works well for me, can't tell the diffs.

    :(

    Seems that medium is too hot. Seedlings and young plants struggle with a too hot (nutrient rich) medium. You can flush, basically you gonna flush a lot of the nutes out of the soil, defeating the purpose of using that soil in the first place. They allready suffering, they may pull through or they might not, but they will take a knock either way. What I would do.....carefully transplant the seedling out to a smaller pot with a ''blander'' medium. Let them recover and start growing again. When they are ready transfer them back. Heed the suggestions of the other growers and decide what you want to do. Auto's are unforgiving as they are on their own internal timer. Playing around with photos and bagseed helps to learn without breaking the bank. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    :(

    The droopyness could be ''overwatering'' related and those brown tips might be nutrient burn related. I don't feed my seedlings untill about the 3rd node. But it's a different case as I use my own soil. What is in your medium and how it was prepared may also play a part. a. Indoor/outdoor? b. Strains? c. Photo or auto d. What medium e. Preparation f. Nutrients/feeding if any g. Water schedule and ''what'' water. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  20. Aweh 420SA, Been busy in the dead of winter. 1-3.Our Kalashnikof lady is getting dank and Yummy with a Capitol Y..... 4-5. Then we have an accidental clash of Titans. Chocolope x Gorilla..... 6-7. My chosen Fella to further the Fruitpunch line. Strong, vigorous, bullit proof, slow to flower, fruity mango and stanky, pukey stem terps.... 8. Fruitpunch boys and girls at 5/6 weeks Clearly showing sex and demonstrating good vigour, even in our cold winter.
  21. Some pics. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
  22. That is a pretty comprehensive pictorial from around the world, very interesting. I have grown some nice Swazi gold from said country. 60% of the plants grew as typical Swazi but the remainder expressed differently, indicating possible foreign influence. Still have a few beans in my bank that will be planted. Did enjoy that sativa and they grew very well in our coastal climate. Wouldnt mind growing our famous Dbn Poison one day.
