Bit of update on the 4x4 run with the OG Kush few issues here and there but nothing more than the strain i’m growing. One plant at back is a light feeder and a bit of a mutant with some of the new growth looking slighty deformed.
Added in the 350 R spec and i’ll be looking to give it a week or two then flip.

Looking good.

if that was me though I’d be getting rid of anything dead that’s laying on the top of your medium.

The biobizz stuff is crap IME , just too thick and stinks and unless you use 3 x the recommended dosage it doesn't really do much.

I've been using those living soil grow , bloom , bloom2 and worm castings powders you have though and they are fucking amazing , been using them coming up to 2.5yrs now and best amendments and nutes I've ever had , massive nugs and great healthy plants .

How do you use them ? And what worm castings are you adding to the mix ? I watch mr Canucks on YouTube and was gna follow his mix but without the Gaia green nutes and use the living soils off eBay

I just see pics all the time from people slating how his plants look burned to shit at the end of flowering.

I could be completely wrong now about him but the last time I checked one of his “latest” videos the thumbnail was of a heavily yellowed plant at harvest.


I’m just not a fan of heavy yellowed plants at harvest time.

Yh they do get a massive fade and some crispy leaves at the end but the finished buds he’s showing look really good he’s a dry amendments guy he uses a 2-8-4 mix four weeks into flower at a rate of 1 teaspoon to a gallon of coco seems to be good finish on it I think

Living soil is better agreed but as bottles go i think biobizz is the best obviously your own inputs would be better but for straight off the shelf i find its the best tasting n cleanest nute line

Been pondering a switch to LEDs. Idea to get some bars and have them constructed in a light tower (without tubes - which even when they look clean to the eye, apparently are not haha). I just love the challenge of vertical growing!!! Just wondering if there would be enough clearance between the walls and the centre point of the cabinet. Its 1.5m wide so we have 75cm max between wall/canopy and the centre. Anyone else using 315cmh? Nice lights but do they fuk yield as much as a 600hps.

Thanks.

Tbh it’s a pretty easy grow at the minute.

I only refilled the tote the other night since it was first filled around the 25Th September lol.

I can allow the runoff for approx 6 days to collect under the table the only thing I’m doing is pulling any leaders back under the screen right now so tend to empty it sooner.

the irrigation is set to 1minute feed 3x a day which provides runoff each time it runs.

Got a constant HX1500 pump in the tote and an HX8810 for feeding cycles.

It makes it much easier when you auto feed. Lol.

I have better things to do than sit there watching plants grow lol.

at most every other day I tuck, every 2 days I empty runoff and every 3 weeks approx I refill the tote.

Obviously refilling is subjective to how many plants in what size pots.

when I had 2 in 18L pots of coco I was refilling the tote weekly lol.

I have a friend that uses auto pots …. And he said it’s the best switch he’s ever made just the price of the setup puts me off I could probably d i y it for a lot less

I’ve just made switch to fabric pots hoping to see a difference from tried and trusted plastic pots running strains I’ve run in the plastic pots before so I will be able to tell next thing for me is switching to organic amendments I always get the same taste of the weed when I smoke but it smells different to the nose
