  1. Flowering : Week 3 All going well, ebb and flow working nicely. Feeding (gh powder feeding long flower) at acout 1 EC, then let it reduce to .5 before back to 1. PH meter still broken.
  2. Flowering : Week 2 Ladies are doing well, seem to be happy on ebb & flow. But..., 5 mins after takin picture, the input pipe became detached. I tried gluing under because if it's mounted properly, it doesn't drain fully, and I don't want pools of water in my tent, especially as it gets warmer and drives up RH. I'll try a different glue tomorrow, although I suspect the plastic tray is purposefully 'non stick'.
  3. Update on the ebb & flow conversion. Everything is installed and working, just figuring out the timing. I don't have another digital timer, so may just do 10 mins every 2 hours on a switch timer, that's on the main daylight timer. I will switch to fabric pots for next, and maybe switch medium to leca.
  4. Update on the ebb & flow conversion. The 1.2 sq m tray arrived today, along with pump & drain fittings. Did a test run, some calculations, and realized my tent platform needs more support. That's quite a lot of water... Some early flower shots.
  5. Flowering : Week 1 Not much to report. First full week on 12/12. Manually watered, added 1.4EC powder feeding. Just ordered the necessary to convert the flower tent from Autopot drip system to a full ebb and flow. The autopot jams and overflows at the slightest impurity, which has then caused powdery mildew... The tent is on a raised platform, so easy enough to convert, theoretically...
  6. They're 2-4 months old. I would normally veg for another month or so, but I've got the chocolope (indoor growoff) in the pipeline and some imported Nirvana GSC & Sherbet Cookies seeds that I'm itching to pop.
  7. I have a tent full of plants, and a shortage of stash, so flower time ... Mixed batch, originating from clones and seeds, although they're all pachamama stock, so just taking what I get. Theoretically, White Widow, Gorilla Glue #4, Super Lemon Haze, Super Silver Haze & Blue Kush. I say theoretically, because previous experience has shown they end up pretty much the same. Nice, but not what was expected. So, here goes....
  8. Heya @Oolong83, looking good. My only advice is to plant them as soon as roots start showing because ideally I cut off the jiffy bag. The roots will grow through it, but seems to constrict the main root ball's size if left intact.
  9. I've bought chilli seeds from http://www.seedsforafrica.co.za/collections/extremely-hot-chilli-peppers and http://livingseeds.co.za/vegetable_seeds/peppers-chillis. Given up on veg garden though, birds strip it of everything except stalks - hate to think what they would do to any cannabis plants.
  10. Howzit, I'm a long time user, newbie grower. No medical reason for using, apart from self diagnosed OCD, i.e. without a daily dose of dagga I become impossible to live with. Just getting into growing, tired of smoking majat. Only just (after 20 years of using) realised how much more there is to cannabis. My ideal world is complete legalisation, taxed but open marketplace, and lots more education. Cheers for now...
