  1. Those are lekker looking shorty pots you got there. What literage are they? I have a few 70's from Freedom and they feel too tall for indoors, I 've gone no-till and growing veggies in them outside instead.
  2. I thought that about the SC from the Farmacy too. Really chill smoke, ticked all the boxes and the smell mellows in the cure beautifully. Just my opinion but it needs to be scrogged, which is no fun indoors. Next time I'll grow it in 3L pots, keep them small so everything gets good light. Did the Big Bhuddha grow the same? Would be nice to grow two strains and still get a proper even canopy.
  3. thanks man it's pretty for sure. and I was going to ditch it in the beginning coz it always looked like it was struggling. Glad I didn't, I dig the wake and bake strains.
  4. ahhhhh! Much appreciated I never would of thought of that. Will keep an eye out.
  5. tiny bit of this going on...
  6. the glue has been ridiculously light sensitive. Maybe i messed something up in the beginning and it never recovered. Dunno. Couldn't flush coz of the damn scrog net. And unfinished work before it went in.
  7. pics - some from last week some yesterday bruce banner
  8. are those homemade sticky traps I see, or store bought? I only ask coz I tried with a few substances on yellow card and every one of them sucked.
  9. what do you do with your custom made soil after the grow? It must be pretty depleted at the end or no?
  10. yeah i got one of those ram fans... of all the things that I've bought it's gotta be the biggest disappointment. Made me very wary of ram products.
  11. if you don't mind me asking, what is a s1 f1 seed? does this mean you're going to have feminised cheese auto seeds?
  12. yewwww! lookin' fine fine FINE!
  13. I wasn't sold on the hashplant but thought I'd give it a go anyway. Mandarin cookies grew strong out the gate and stretched a lot - it looks like it could be a high yielder if it was grown with similar plants and not mixed in with shorter strains. Pineapple express was a slow starter but is looking very healthy now... supposed to stretch but I only topped it once, maybe twice and I've barely trained it compared to the others and it's the same height. Time will tell. the super cheese has been solid so far.. I think it'll produce nice buds.
  14. thanks man yah sounds good, as long as it's a balanced output you got it nailed
  15. bonsai mums coming along slowly. Just a learning project this, for if I come accross something special in the future.
  16. Day 14 of flower. ferts per litre: 1ml grow, 2ml bloom, 7ml fulvates elixir. Next sunday 20ml humates/litre. Overwatered 4L per pot last time, took 4 days till next water so today 3L per pot. soil ph: 6.5 to 6.8 any advice on humates/fulvates in ff classic soil? Looking at what's in the soil I assumed these would be helpful but I don't want to overdo it. mandarin cookies pineapple express glue bruce banner blueberry hashplant super cheese
  17. Air movement. messed about with placement of fans. I'm not sure about these box fans... they blow a lot of wind but they're quite powerful for under the plants. I've got a couple of lithium fans coming to test out. My feeling at the moment is that: a) running just the extractor during loadshedding is not enough, the air won't be circulating in the canopy enough and b) I'd rather have 8 X 5v fans with battery backup than one 40v fan. Cost is obviously an issue but i was blown away (pardon me:-) by how much difference the little fans made in circulating passive intake air under and up through the canopy.
  18. man, getting your environment sorted requires more work and money than I had anticipated. I've now put environment ahead of growing for this cycle... still learning on the grow but these plants have been stressed by a number of things: some understandable mistakes, some stupid mistakes and some inexplicable decisions have been made! One of my favourite things to do is break out the Mighty for a little lift and then do the days grow work so that probably explains a lot. My concern now is that I'm pretty sure I've got a case of light stress. Initially the plants reacted really poorly to the light being lowered. I had another go in late veg, dropping them 50-100mm each day. Got the light down to 600mm but that was before a few colas stared to mess up the uniformity of the canopy. I've lifted the light to 650 from the top cola's but eish, I'm not sure if I should lift it more or not.
  19. @Prom Will the wattage of that little globe be enough to trick the plants? I think you were talking about much stronger battery lights. Is there a minimum light requirment that you know of? I know you have lots of testing equipment!!!
  20. Just as a side note I see sonoff sell a din switch that recognizes when loadshedding hits and then sets off scenes accordingly for things that are connected to inverters/generators/etc. Handy thing to know about.
  21. Thanks everyone for your replies. I'll go for a major tech then, I also see I have a Toptronic that was connected to an old geyser... probably could've used that but it's over a year old so not worth the risk. Found the isolator switch for the old geyser in the roof so gonna run that down and use it to clean up the electrics now that the setup won't change for a while. A secondary db board is required for it to be properly safe. Will leave the heater to run off a normal house circuit so that old geyser circuit will easy handle everything else, has a trip and can be surge protected at the db. @Prom Yah I see those I've found one that is reviewed as actually being trustworthy from a battery point of view and have ordered a couple. here's the link if anyone's interested (UK brand) aurora lithium @Naughty.PsychonautAs far as air is concerned, I'm busy installing a little 12v inverter to run the extraction and circulation fans and also the dehumidifier if I need to. I know this is going off topic a bit but I've been measuring the RH under canopy, in canopy, above canopy and at the extraction fan. I am now convinced that a lot of growers try to compensate for poor air circulation by turning their fan up. It's crazy how humidity sits under that canopy. I now have 4 fans in various arrangements to test and it made a huge difference, a massive difference, in evenly distributed humidity. My fan running on about 6 (with filter attached) will empty the air every minute... turning it anything higher than that you're barking up the wrong tree. Thanks again everyone
  22. Having said that, I don't have a problem with the name myself. I'm just saying there are people that will freak out and it's entirely understandable if you know where it's coming from.
  23. You think like this because you are not German. U know the old saying 'don't mention ze war'? If you've spent any time in europe you will realize that the cut to German people is still super deep. Put yourself in the shoes of a person whose entire nation was hoodwinked into some batshit crazy genocidal madness. Someone who's own family lineage may well have participated in this. It's not a joke to those people because their own attitude is the antithesis of everything that hitler stood for. I know the view from here is different because we're removed from it but trust me It's not shallow, peoples pain should be respected on this because it's real pain my man. Crazy but true!
  24. Very nice man, was about to pull the trigger on a few of these netbows so this is a timely post for me. so you didn't use the litre per hour drippers and manifolds connected to those, just measured the output and used a timer?
