    Here we go..

    I have run Autos at 12/12. I bought a new tent and had a couple of photos I used as mothers to flower off and they looked silly sat in a big tent, so I had a 3 pack of Auto seeds as a freebie, so chucked them in too. They worked well enough.

    LED was the future

    I'd never go back to HPS. LEDs are a country mile better. Yes it is hard to keep them warm in the winter.

    Regular vs feminised

    I can go to places like RQS and Sensi Seeds and get some decent seeds for under £20. I have a box here with just the freebies that get sent out. I have 20 Big Bud x White Widow that were buy 10 get 10 free. At the moment I have 5 Northern Lights Autos by RQS going that were literally 100%...

    Deficiencies & ADVANCED NUTRIENTS

    I used to fuck about with shit like this. I used Plant Magic Old Timers, I was mixing 5 different products at different ratios each week. I really believed that I could "dial in" some magic formula and have some killer weed because of it. The lockdown happened and I couldn't get it. So...

    Regular vs feminised

    TBH seeds are super cheap. If that were the case I'd just buy some more.

    Regular vs feminised

    If you are going to go to that amount of effort you might as well just keep taking clones. Back in the day it was reckoned that regulars would yield slightly more than the fem version.

    Worth the wait?

    I'd take off the dead and dying crap and finish it normally, i.e feeding till the end. Not saying it is the right thing to do, it is what I would do.

    Don’t beat me up but I’m gonna flush my organic grow lol

    I think flushing is total nonsense. TBH I have no experience of top dressing. Whilst I don't think flushing is a thing I do believe in the law of diminishing returns. Once I hit week 8 I back off my nutes by 50% and give only plain water for the last week. Basically I have reached a point...

    Don’t beat me up but I’m gonna flush my organic grow lol

    Don't believe a word that breeders tell you about yield or the time to harvest. They know that people want the maximum amount of weed in the shortest possible time, so that is what they tell you. There are so many variables that will affect the harvest time, the only true answer is that it...

    Anyone else remember when growing weed was simple?

    It is a select few. I had some friends over from the US and Sweden at Christmas and we churned through a fair bit.

    Anyone else remember when growing weed was simple?

    I always have loads left over. But then I always see my friends right with some at Christmas and things like that. If I only grew what the Wife and I needed I'd probably only do one run a year. I need 6 ounces every 3 months, my last grow yielded 18 ounces and I have identified a whole load...

    Anyone else remember when growing weed was simple?

    Where I am half an ounce would set you back £160 ($140). So if I knew spending $1000 on a piece of kit would give me an extra half Oz every time I would consider that money well spent.

    New here and to Growing! (Need LED advice)

    Autoflowers are not for beginners. They sound simpler in theory, but the practice is a little different. When you are growing under lights you get to be God. With a photoperiod plant you get to control every part of it's life. You get to say when it flowers, you can keep a plant in a...

    White Fuzz (Maybe Mold) on riot cubes?

    I germinate on paper towels and transplant into homemade plug planters filled with potting compost. As soon as I see roots appear at the bottom of plug I drop it in a bigger pot.

    New here and to Growing! (Need LED advice)

    Personally I don't think you'd go far wrong with a 4x4 tent and 600w of LED lighting. I have 4 x TS1000 and can quite happily pull 18 - 20oz from a 4x4. The initial outlay of 4 lights like that will be higher, but with them being dimmable and having 4 of them means you can control your...

    What do you guys think

    Complete and utter nonsense.
