Hi everyone 

I wish you all well today.

so I have just completed my first grow I’m still pretty noob and I grew in potting soil mixed with bonemeal and fed moderate amounts of seagro most of the until closer to the end as I could now see the bonemeal burning them. I never used any flowering nutrients thinking the bonemeal would provide enough of the P, I wasn’t happy with the bud sizes ( I’ll post a pic ) I saw some EHG nutrients on growguru site it sounds ‘ amazing ‘ as most are trying to market there product but before I go ahead and purchase the A, B, micro kit I would like everyone’s opinions on the matter, I’ll be using it in coco only grow next ( I’m revenging the same plant, time wreck) and putting it in a scrog this time, but after that I want to do DWC so would it be possible for those nutes to cover me through a coco and dwc grow ?

Incase this info is relevant I’m using 10x 15w LED bulbs @2700k 1520 lumens each.

thanks !

 

ps I posted a pic of the nutes im referring to, aswell as a few bud shots

@Jimmy-z thank you so much for taking the time to reply I’ll give those nutes a shot and grab a meter while at it, do you have any tips on how I could increase my gram/watt ratio for future grows as I really want nice nice nice uniform buds so I will be using a screen but there is much I don’t know. Any advice would be much appreciated.

 

thanks

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.

@Jimmy-zthank you I’ve written that down as I wouldn’t of know how many parts per mill to use so start slow and move up.

@CreXthanks for your reply and you have some great thought I will start a journal once I figure out this forum I did I fact take weekly pics of my last grow but I’ll rather start a fresh one here and reply to your last 2 questions, 

 

im using 10x Luceco 15watt LED, 2700K, 1520 lumens, and I cut the plastic bulb part off, so 150watts and 15200 lumens in that small space and yes I have this other side of my closet that I will be using with a scrog (will make a scrog coco diary ) I’ll send a pic so you can get a feel for the space. It’s dimensions are 76cmL 54cmB 1.7m H.

In the pic is the revegging plant I have my screen ready for the scrog just waiting for her to reveg it will take about 3 more weeks and the baby cheese plant is an experiment with wick passive hydro 

i would like to apologize as I haven’t figured out how to reply as a pose to making a whole new comment.

Your buds don't look bad at all! Iv just finished a grow with EHG, nice and simple to use very straight forward I just followed the recommended amounts on the bottle as my Ec meter was broken and checked my ph regularly I'm sure you could dial it in much better with a working Ec meter. Training your plant well helps you get more grams, I wouldn't know if other nutes will guarantee more grams as Iv never tried but ye I'm happy with the EHG it does the job.

@SneakyDave thanks sneaky dave I’m new at this not even a scale yet, I put my timewreck in jars today for curing didn’t get as much as I hoped hence I want to try better nutes and better training, I tried a dried non cured bud and I was kinda blown away by the potency, it’s a 24% thc strain but I’m not sure if I grew it at that level it’s capable of with only seagro and bonemeal but really looking forward to trying to pull more in my indoor stealth closet space more to come in the future!!D555E891-7BA2-4DFD-AA63-A01044437E1A.thumb.jpeg.fc92faf8b8b3aeabb5b961b158924cdd.jpeg

@420F0R3V3R generally id think that well grown bud you grow yourself would probably be better and more potent then what you could get off the streets with some exceptions. Its handled less so less trichs fall off and you control the curing process you have no idea what the bud you buy has gone through it could have been left in the boot of a car for a week you wont know. Don't worry I'm new too still no scale also lol.

Yield does not look terrible.

 

I think the EHG nutes are similar to Hortimix nutes which I have heard good things about and it's really well priced!

 

If you wanted to increase yield and quality, I'd suggest using nutes and not just relying on the soil and bonemeal for nutrition and consider upgrading your lights at some point.

Lol dude at the shop told me its basically Hortimix with food coloring.

Yeah, I think Hortimix may be cheaper. So rather just get some Hortimix then.

After a quick test I did, and ingredients list between hortimix and Nutriplex, my findings are that you would need about a kilo of each hortimix powder to reach a concentration close to the bottled nutrients... Which puts the bottles nutes at a marginally better price in my opinion... 

But let's see how long the hortimix lasts and what kind of results I get.

      Hello growers
      I would love to have an opinion on this topic. Let me update you on what I have been working with. I have a one plant indoor grow inside a 80cm x 80cm grow tent. I use a 40l fabric pot with both Orgasoilux and Freedom farms soil (green bag). The bottom half I use Orgasoilux(20l) and the top half I use Freedom farms soil(20l). Throughout veg all I give the plant is Biodyne Environoc 401 (microbes), Molasses and water. This results in an extremely healthy plant.
      Once I flip to flower I start using organic bottled nutrients. In the past I have used Biobizz Bio-bloom, and more recently I have used Dirty hands inc - Bio-Phos (Jamie's brand). I give 3ml Bio-Phos once a week early flower and up it to 5ml every week mid to late flower. Plus a molasses feeding every 2 weeks and stopped using Biodyne microbes 1 week into flower.
      I was thinking about completely ditching bottled nutrients and going the topdressing route for flower. I was thinking of maybe topdressing a week before the flip with Jamie's elemental blend. I am just worried if it will provide enough for the plants through to harvest. I was also thinking of maybe using my own topdressing blend of Dry kelp, Gypsum, Malted Barley and Worm Castings. Would love an opinion on switching to topdressing for flower and if the elemental blend should be more than enough to take me to harvest. If you think I should just stick to bottled nutrients for flower let me know. I am going to include photo's of my 2 previous grows using the method I have stated above. Just trying to get the best quality flower possible :)
      Some thoughts of mine...…
      Topdressing vs Liquid Nutrients?
      Biobizz Bio-Bloom vs Dirty Hands Inc Bio-Phos?
      One topdressing enough 1 week before flip?
      Elemental Blend or my own flowering mix?
      ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      My Grow:
      Medium: Top Half Freedom Farms soil (20l) + bottom half Orgasoilux(20l)
      Additives and Amendments: Molasses + Biodyne Environoc 401 Microbes + Dirty Hands Inc - Bio-Phos + Mycoroot (seedling)
      -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      (Seedling)
      - Solo Cup + Freedom Farms soil + Mycoroot
      -Transplant in week 2 of veg to 40l
      -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      (Veg Stage)
      - initial inoculant 2ml Environoc Microbes
      -1ml per litre  Environoc every 2 weeks
      -5ml per litre Molasses every 2 weeks
      -Stop Environoc 1 week into flower
      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      (Flower Stage)
      -3ml Bio-Phos every week (early flower)
      -5ml Bio-Phos every week (late flower)
      -5ml Molasses every 2 weeks
      -Stop Bio-Phos 2 weeks before harvest
      -Feed molasses until harvest

      First time growing photoperiods, quite excited. 

      Genetics
      Hiroshima by Renegade Seed Co.  6 Pack

      High THC, and according to the product description should deliver "high yields of dense, rock-solid buds."  Hoping to achieve that.
      Want to make one a mother and start learning to clone. The description says "These highly stable genetics produce two phenotypes at most." Should be easy to choose a winner to reveg.
      They advise topping, which I am also looking forward to learning. Want to also try "FIM" a plant or two to experiment. 
      Grow Setup
      Same as before. Here
      ~
      Lets go 
      9 November
      Seeds arrived. Also received a Promotional 2 Pack of G-Fawke.

      10 November
      Seeds into a glass of spring water. Onto a heating mat and into a dark cupboard to soak for 18 hours.

      11 November
      Seeds started showing roots. All 6 seeds popped, gently took them and placed them root facing down in Jiffy Preforma Plugs. 
      Covered the holes slightly and into the ROOTiT Small Propagator they go. Heating mat underneath, and gently misted with spring water. Also threaded the hygrometer reader through a ventilation hole, to see the environment reading. 
      I think this reading is fine for germination. Any and all feedback welcome.

      Hoping for them all to push out effectively over the coming days. In hindsight I should have maybe done the paper towel method to get the roots longer, before putting them into the plugs. I've also previously had a failed germination where I watered a bit much, so just gently misting this time as to not drown/stunt the seeds.

      Hi everyone, 
      I am currently looking to purchase an indoor setup for myself. Nothing fancy or big. Just enough to be a new hobby. I am always willing to invest in more stuff later, just dont have the money right now.
      So basically my budget is Around R5k. I am willing to go over, but anything lower is always preferred.
      I got a quote form MarijuanaSA and want a few opinions on it, or just a whole new quote for those that are willing to make one.

      It seems to have all the important items in it. I can buy a few items that do the same at lower prices, like on takealot. I am looking at 0.8x0.8 or a 1x1 tents. What would be better? I want to grow around 2 to 3 plants at a time.
      Then, I would really like a cheaper light to use but just cant seem to find a good option that is less than 1k...
       
      So basically, I am asking for assistance in selecting all the basic items for my first ever indoor grow. Whatever saves me the most money and gives me enough items to get away for at least 2 harvests before investing more.
      I already have soil and pots from my outdoor plants.
      Any help will really be appreciated as I barely know what I am buying with indoor growing equipment.
       
      I have a small list of just a few items that I am putting together to use as a purchasing guide. Here it is for a general idea of what im currently looking at:

      Good morning growers. 
      Currently have two plants vegging in my indoor setup and I noticed this morning my one plants is start to show pistils?? The light cycle has has been on 18/6 since seedling and hasn't changed since. Was wondering why one of the plants is showing pistils while it's under veg? I thought pistils only come once u flip to flower under 12/12 cycle. Not very happy because I wanted to still veg out the plants for longer and recently just topped them. If anyone can give an explanation that would be great👌😉. Plants have been happy the entire time with no deficiances, problems or stress. I would say it's been a perfect grow so far. And they are photo periods not autoflowers. Is it possible for the plant to shoot pistils and show its sex while still in veg?? Or is it guaranteed flipped. Thanks guys would appreciate your knowledge on this topic
