  1. Wow bud, now I truly see the light...thanks for that Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  2. Green house seeds also sell nutes and those listed may be suppliers of the nute range Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  3. How the dang to you maintain that temp and humidity? With regards to the buckets are they airtight ? Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  4. Depending on what's in your soil. I have recently noticed a label on the Freedom Farms soil advising the soul should be ph between 5.5 and 6.0 which was unusually low according to my research so I sent Derrek a mail. That and the differences in his soil and this was his answer: Hi Mark Thanks for your mail We dont add Lime as Coco coir has a naturally high pH. Below is the answers to your pH, ingredients and soil difference questions. Regarding the re-use of the soil - It is recommended only when your using it in a raised bed system i.e large volume containers. Re-using the soil from a potted plant will most likely not give you the great esults you get from fresh soil. Please let me know if you have any more questions. Ideal watering pH for Freedom Farms Growing Mediums: 5.5 – 6.0 Pure coconut coir has a pH between 5.8 - 6.8. A substrate/soil pH of between 5.5 and 6.5 is ideal for nutrient uptake in most plants. Freedom Farms Coco coir is buffered and charged with natural amendmments. The high Calcium content of our amendmments maintains the pH in the 6.5-6.8 range and will prevent a decrease in pH (substrate acidification) resulting from fertilizer application or waterings at a low pH. The soil pH is therefore buffered against decreasing pH. On the other hand, an incremental increase in pH resulting from tap water (pH 7-8.5) use can cause the soil pH to increase above the optimal range for nutrient uptake. The soil pH is therefore not buffered against increasing pH caused by using un-pH’d tap water. Watering with a pH of 5.5-6.0 will ensure the pH of the soil remains in the optimal range of 5.5-6.5. Organic Classic vs. the Pro Growing Medium The Organic Classic blend is formulated for organic nutrients (mainly). Later on in the plant's growing cycle you can add inorganic nutrients if you allow for runoff. If you apply inorganic fertilizer from the start you might burn the plant leaves due to EC stress. So we recommend you either just give water at the beginning or the recommended dosage of organic nutrients such as biobizz, seagro, nitrosol, fish hydrolysate or Freedom Farms Microlife. Compared to the Pro, the Classic has a greater Cation exchange capacity, a higher active organic matter content as well as a balanced semi-slow release organic nutrient component. It will also hold water slightly longer, due to its higher coco coir and compost components. Classic Ingredients: Coco Coir, Worm Castings, Compost, Perlite (10%), Vermiculite, Organic Nutrients, (Volcanic Rock Dust, Bone Meal, Gypsum, Fermented probiotic bran. The Pro Growing Medium is a specifically formulated for the application of salt based/inorganic nutrients and allows you to control the nutrient balance more. This mix has no additional nutrients apart from our vibrant base dry amendment mixture (same as in Classic). With the Pro you have to feed a balanced inorganic fertilizer nutrient formulation (which includes all Macro and Micro elements) from the start and apply again as plant requires with development. The Pro has three times more perlite than the Classic which makes it especially suited for fertigation which also allows for growing a larger plant relative to its root system size. Due to the increased aeration and drainage of the Pro, the medium dries out quicker. Runoff is required with every other nutrient application to avoid salt build-up. In between salt based nutrient applications, organic nutrients can be supplemented to stimulate microbial activity and add the beneficial aspects of organic amendments. Pro Ingredients: Coco Coir, Worm Castings, Perlite (30%), Volcanic Rock Dust, Bone Meal, Gypsum, Fermented probiotic bran. Kindest regards Derek Freedom Farms Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  5. Yeah, but with the recent ruling in place allowing us to grow one would hope the seeds will now be deemed okay Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  6. Depending on what it's been declared as, I don't think they declare it as seeds. Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  7. If it's the liquid that changes colour I may put you off by saying you can't see jack shit once your nutes are mixed in. A PH pen from GT Hydro is a way better and safer option Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  8. That Crystal Gelato has my attention. Looking forward to see how she turns out Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk

    Hello

    Damn I forgot to mention Hoochy and Pat is hiding somewhere Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  11. Hey bud, I think we need to link the new people to some of your soil receipts hidden in here. They gonna need it [emoji120][emoji108] Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  12. Gonna melt the trichomes away [emoji23][emoji23] Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk

    Hello

    Dude I told you to pull in long time ago. Stick to a nice Kush ...less paranoia lol. Tell Blaze to get his ass over here too, he was once part of 420SA and wee need him back. Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  15. Aah yes, where the dialing code is 031 because that's what the outdoor growing temperature is Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk Hahaha......036 brother.......... It's a little warmer today Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  16. That's a shame. It seems a little unfair that I'm going to still have to walk around with the burden of a conviction for something that is now considered legal (even though it's going to take a little time to work it's way into the constitution) Surely there will be recourse in the future? I have no doubt that many others have the same problem as I do. It makes life very difficult, applying for jobs and visas. I'm sure it will come with time, it makes no sense not to Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  17. Beautiful bud Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk

  19. The butler's pizza is a genuine ad. Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  20. Is it the same plant and the progression thereof or are you running a few of them. The last pick has got some serious frost going there hey Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  21. Hahahaha, at least we've met hey Toby. U feel like you dreaming 2? Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  22. We should indeed. [emoji23] Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  23. Mark, from Parow Cape Town. Northern suburbs is lit with stoners. Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  24. I'm in Parow bud, a stones throw away. PM me, I can't help with a GF albeit my wife has a few single friends lol. Btw there is a few WhatsApp groups out there I'm sure. Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
  25. But we only started growing yesterday... Hahahaha, officially. Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
