    I'd love to give that a try as well. So far copper soap has been my go-to for PM Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Best & worst grow. Bay11 last year, about half way through flowering when the pics were taken. Lost 90% due to mold in the buds while it was still growing :( Humidity was just too high last year Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Always best to start slow. I started with a ppm of 150 & gradually increased it to around 1000. Also, don't let the grow & micro mix before you add it to your reservoir. You might get a white precipitate that doesn't dissolve. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    I used it in my very first soil & autopot grow. Works very well & you can add a lot before it burns your plants. I would suggest getting a ppm/ec meter to properly monitor your nutrient concentration if you dont already have one. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    I've used Gewinn-tech. He's alright. Haven't used the light much, tbh Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Try copper soap, it's worked with my last grow & its non-systemic. I've found that baking soda only helps for a short time & the PM eventually comes back if the humidity doesn't drop. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    I see Hydroponic.co.za will have stock end of Aug. I might get another one as well. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Actually, its caused by cooler temperatures & high humidity. Some strains are also more susceptible to mildew... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://hightimes.com/grow/how-to-avoid-powdery-mildew/amp/&ved=2ahUKEwjA9fzEx8ziAhUUShUIHf6JAyYQFjALegQIARAB&usg=AOvVaw3mUt3yummbxi7gqrPS8-Xu&ampcf=1 Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    The highest you should aim for is 1000 ppm or 2 EC, A, B & C combined. Some plants can handle higher, but you risk burning them. Very dark leaves, usually mean almost too much nitrogen, burnt tips usually follow if you increase your concentration. It's all about reading the leaves. Lol Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Me neither... a good soil will stay moist for a few days & if you use an autopot, it never dries out. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    That chart wouldn't work very well with cannabis because of the shorter veg cycle. By the time you hit pre-flower, you should be at 2 EC or 1000ppm or slightly higher, depending how the plant handles it, & then once in flower you reduce A & B, and start adding C.

    I've placed 3 orders with them. Next day delivery in CT. Auto blueberry with one order, but I still prefer photo period seeds... Autos are finicky. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Still nothing wrong, it's completely normal... the only large leaves you'll be left with at harvest, is the fan leaves on the colas. Almost all the other leaves will yellow & fall off before then. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    It's normal. Old leaves turn yellow & drop off, moreso when flowering starts. As long as the rest of the plant looks healthy, then u have nothing to worry about. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    There are arguments for & against flushing. I prefer to half my nutrients & a longer cure time. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    How dry is the medium when you water? Which potting mix? Are you feeding any nutrients? A pic would help. I've seen grows in perlite only, so I'd guess one of those questions above is where the problem is. Edit: Some potting mixes contain added fertilizers, stay far away from them, they're likely to burn the crap out of your plants. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    There's always the seed/clone exchange. I don't have any issue giving away clones either as it's practice for me; and if I have good genetics, like the Bay 11, it keeps the strain alive, since I won't be able to afford those seeds easily again. Basically paying it forward.
  18. Jimmy-z
    Why not buy a 5 pack, plant 2 & make clones to fill up your grow space & give to friends, etc. That's what I'm going to do with my Bay 11. I popped 2 & gave away 5 clones while I practise for next season ;) Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Did the prices go up? I think I paid R1100 at the time I split my order with friends , so they paid me 250 per seed. Didnt hurt the wallet so much. Lol. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Cannabisseeds.co.za I got my order the next day. Ordered last year & the year before. I think one out of 15 didnt pop. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    I've actually never had an issue with them, apart from long delivery times. Ordered twice from them & the last order was R2400 for some Bay 11 seeds late Nov last year. They also replied to my mails a bit late, but they came through eventually. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    What's your growing medium? What are you feeding? If it's promix, did you buffer it? How old is the plant? Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    I got these from takealot a while back. Cheap, but it works. I tested our tap water, & both the pen & drops confirm 6.5 Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Well, they all look really good & healthy. Even the mutant. I'm lazy when it comes to my grow, so I start off in the final pot. And I plan to move completely to autopots at some point, when I have some cash to spare. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    That's interesting to say the least... I'm actually curious about the GDP. I couldn't get any when I was looking for seeds early last year, so I went with Bay 11 which is GDP crossed with Haze & is a sativa dominant strain. How fast is your GDP growing? Mine is a pretty big bush in a matter of 5/6 weeks. In the pic, they're the 2 on the far right. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk
