ok so mine looks to be about 8 with my ph testing solution. Ill try get a digi PH tester end of the month.

I havent actually tested that spring, however interested now. Ive also only fed with tap water and never concerned myself with PH.. last tests told me it was fine, but I hear reports from others now that the PH is quite high. Will test mine this evening.

9.56 PH? Sheeeesh... Ill check mine again actually, last check was around 6.

Seeds are potted, under some CFL's...

Right.. ill sort it out pronto. Ive usually germed in coco, and then putting under the light early, or as they pop. Always had issues this way though, root system isnt properly developed yet and watering is a bit tricky. That said, I have been wanting a bit of stretch, will help make a nice strong stem before the nodes start. Will raise the coco up a bit to support.

Loving life, think Ill move them to coco tonight, and then under some CFL's in the next couple days. Sorry focus is all wrong..

Already in our time! you just have to cross borders.. Soon though, its happening.

yeah cover the soil/coco with some mulch or hydroton balls to retain some water.. also helps keep the soil firm when watering.

Organic nutes stay in the soil a bit longer than the chemical nutes so you can often skip a feed, just give water inbetween. If you see nute burn, dial it back. I generally use the upper limit of the nutes during full veg and flower, so about 3-4 full caps(30-40ml), mixed into about 10ltrs of water. Each plant generally gets about 2.5 to 3lts of water per feed. If outdoors, and hot, You could feed more regularly, and top up with plain water every day. I generally go on a feed today, no feed tomorrow though. As they move into full flower, I tend to feed maybe every day, until I see that there may be a bit of burn, then dial it back, flush etc and continue. I could be going about this all wrong, but sort of works for me.

Just up the road from me, do all my grow hardware shopping there.

I approve! send feedback That said, I farking hated smoking cigs on shrooms, MDMA however I could chain them. Was close on 9 years ago I quit, on my bday. never looked back.

The site has gone live today so okes can put in their orders. Price may be a bit of a blocker for a few peeps, but the fact there is close to no risk and a guarantee of delivery makes it worth while.

The filter paper would just be a backup, but if you cant get activated carbon pieces then you need lots of filter paper. check any aquarium store etc for activated carbon and perhaps a hardware store for the filter paper (not sure if the aquarium shop will stock that).

I made a slightly different change to my lifestyle, and it was around what I eat. this in fact made a massive difference, once I never knew could even exist within myself. I cut out carbs and sugar (although i cheat a bit now) but generally stay away from them. My weight is even now, but initially lost close to 20kg. Was a bit overweight. To me it made the world of difference, and when I smoke now, I dont get tired and lethargic, it has a different effect on my brain when it doesnt have to contend with carbs/sugars. It was like a new lease on life for me. That said, I dont let travel stop my habits. I travel regularly for business all over the country and into africa, and always take something to smoke. I have undetectable methods to get past security etc. That said, they do not check locally at all. I go through security with bud in my pockets its that lax. have been for 10 years now. I guess if it was harder I would have regular detox sessions, but hell no. One needs weed in those places, makes it so much more enjoyable, especially after work.

Love Tool!! So many grow vids with tool in the background.. You are 100% right on though. Best thing one could do.

Impressive regarding the Caffeine, still a massive vice of mine. I dont drink (very rarely do I have a beer or a whiskey or some red wine), or smoke tobacco. Marijuana keeps me centered, my wife knows this

Looks good man. I love diy jobs like that. Like the run off idea as well.

This morning.. looking good I think..

would love to see a pic.

Been looking to DIY this myself, currently dont have one. Exhaust goes back into the garage and remains contained however I think I need one. I started to actually collect some tubs for this. Was going to use one of those 5kg protein shake tubs, with a smaller 2kg tub on the inside, or something to that effect. Using a combination of activated carbon as the filter, along with activated carbon filter paper, and the drilling of lots of wholes in the sides of the two tubs. You basically chop the bottom of the big tub off, push the smaller tub up, inside, and glue it to the top. Inside tub is wrapped in a stocking, outside tub is wrapped in activated carbon filter paper, with activated carbon pieces between the two tubs. Havent found the right sized tubs yet, and I dont take the stuff myself. Always open for a simpler method though

Lights on at 18H00, off at 04H30 for now. I feed at 18H00 and when I get home the following day, the coco is dry and the leaves are wilting. So I water once more just before lights out. So tonight I'll see if there's an improvement. I see. I have a similar regime, lights on at 6pm, when I generally give them water. this ends up being enough for at least 2 days. I wait a day, then water.. coco isnt dry by the next day. Outdoors is daily though. you mentioned a 3.8lt feed, is this per plant or across a few?

isnt that PH a bit low? How are you dechloronating? Yes definitely on the low side. As long as I keep it between 5.5 & 6.5PH she should be fine. It's very difficult to get the PH spot on when you only diluting 1 litre at a time. As DP grows I will have to use more which makes it a bit easier to adjust ph spot on . Im interested in what could be lowering the PH there. Amino acids? Im not even bothering with de-chlorinating. I know you can let it sit for 24 hours, then add a touch of sugar to get rid of the chloramines which remain but I dont think this would lower it. My tap water reads 6 ph out the tap. Couldnt you just use a bit of ph up, enough for 1 liter? I spose it isnt really bad enough to worry.. heard egg shells on the surface also helps regulate and gives calcium boost.

As well, would like to see the results. Is a 3am topup feed required?

Interesting.. surprisingly I have a memory of this myself, however it supposedly never existed? http://www.snopes.com/did-sinbad-played-a-genie-in-the-90s-movie-shazaam/

really bad attempt at a comparison.... one can be measured, the other cannot.
