Hi guys does anyone know where I can find the carte blanche piece from last night ?

Cheers

What's your soils ph level ? There's a whole bunch of stuff going on there.

More than likely the vermiculite that cause it.... horrible stuff that ...

When you say "mould" that's a very broad term . Like 420 said without pics theres not much we can help with but personally I highly doubt it was the humidity .

Neem and pyrol both have equal chances of burning your plants but both can be avoided. Neem OIL and pyrol are both oil bases so if you spray your plants and put them back under lights you are going to fry them. The oil acts like a lens under light . You must spray just before lights off and let them dry out sufficiently otherwise you will burn your plants.

That being said NEVER spray oils on plants under 1000w lights , the oil needs at least a week before the risk of burning isn't there.

My preference is pyrol as neem smells like ass....

Looking good bud.

Take those last bits of stork of were u topped them , make the cut as close as you can to the bottom. Leaving that small piece is a waste of plant energy,  the plant is keeping  that stork alive for no reason. Same goes for any branch or leaf you take off , the entire piece must come off.

Don't be scared about abusing your plants,  they can take it. Also try drilling holes in the top of the pot lip and tieing the branches to the side with plant ties (lst)

Agreed Maxwell 

11w are useless in a grow environment.  You basicly have to put the lamp in the plant to have any positive effect otherwise it will premote stretch .

Didn't see you post there 420 , 

If you have a look at the plants they are still young as they haven't started alternate noding so I would put it down to preflowers and not loadshedding but I could be wrong as well:-puffin

Hi bud

That's spidermite , have a good look under the leaves there will be to y black specks (actually red). Those are spidermite , I would recommend pyrol. As for the pistols , am I right in saying the plant is still in veg? If so u can still veg as long as you want , those are just preflowers that show when the plant is sexually mature.

bud don't get ahead of yourself..... forcing hermies and making seeds from female seeds does not make for good genetics....do yourself a favour and go research genetics and seed production .

Cheers

Reaf

You should try starting training a lot earlier. General rule of thumb I use is if it has 2 sets of true leaves she can be fimmed and started to be trained. A well trained plant can easily double your yield.

Hi bud

You are throwing away money , turn one if those panels off or get a smaller 135w cfl.  Seedling can not utilise all that light . Generally seedlings and clones go under a 135w led panel I have until I need more light.

Cheers

Reaf

Hi bud

I am a bit confused here... are u running 600w for seedlings?

@Toby No. I'm in the East Cape. It makes no difference where in the country you are. If it gets intercepted it happens at customs. Just take out the insurance and stealth packaging option. They will keep sending until it arrives.

 

Well it actually does matter were in the country you are ..... Cape Mail is on the ball and the guys in Cape town have major issues getting seeds. I know growers that have there seeds send to friend's in JHB and then the friends send the beans on to cape town

Cheers

Reaf

Looking good bud. You planning on training them at all?

I moved away from passive intakes a while ago , I use a 6" powered intake with a centrafugal fan designed to work with resistance moving about 400m3  an hour and then a 8" extracting moving about 650m3 an hour through carbon.

On the intake I use batting from the material shop as a prefilter and a hepa and a secondary  filter.

Cheers

Reaf

This is the prefilter  pad I use for my intake into my grow. This is in by no means a dirty area , I am anal about my clean environment. ..

Basicly  the filters been running a month... and the pic speaks for its self

Very cool , wish I could have been there. Thanks yo all those that attended for the greater good

It will probably work but why try go cheap and easy... you have spend so much on your grow , why now feed sub par nutes. In hydro it's the life blood . So it's the old story , you can but I wouldn't. 

Cheers

Reaf

Make sure u order bloom and grow because it is a combination system

You gotta pay for the panel and shipping right. Then the thing arrives and there is a problem? You gotta pay and mission to ship it back (Assuming they will take it back). I can replace my HID's in an hour. Capacitors, ignitors, bulbs, ballasts etc Can be easily troubleshooted and repaired yourself. JOMO:-peace

 

 

 

 

I couldn't agree with you more , that much down time on a critical piece of equipment is scary.  My personal option is you will still get more yield of a digital hid , lot of hype around led panels . It's just there grow footprint is terrible.

2 x 1000w digital hid will kick 4 x 400w led panels ass , just my 2 cents

Cheers

Reaf

Honestly I haven't seen flora  bloom... if you growing in soil you want an organic nute , I would highly recommend biobizz biobloom and biogrow combination. It's the only thing I would use.

Cheers

Reaf

When greenhouse opened there strainhunters seed bank I was send sample of all there seeds , it took me a good part of 6 months to grow them out . Some were fail genetics as in just kak plants mist hermied and I got only 1 plant out that's sort of a keeper...

Don't forget about subcool and jaws gear also top notch stuff. Lately I actually am enjoying royal queen genetics as well.

Cheers

Reaf

Hi bud

First off what medium are you using? Because you are going from organic nutes to chemical nutes.... big no no there bud.

If you going organic then biobizz and if chemical hydro then nutriplex. You can't flip flop between growing techniques because you will run into major trouble.

Www.growguru.co.za stocks both nutes.

Cheers
