Ah OK, I'm not talking about growing in straight compost here. I'm referring to a pre-mix - generally with other ingredients. Maybe that's where we're getting our wires crossed. No growing in pure cow poop going on here. :D

Well, each to their own I suppose. I'm happy it's working for you. I've never had any PH issues in compost which generally sits at 6.5, fed with tap water at around 8. Good luck though.

Compost is a fundamental component of living soil. It's what brings the bacteria to the mix in the first place. The difference is that living soil is comprised of a far greater array of ingredients which can feed your microherd for much longer whereas simple compost will run out of steam...

Testing run-off in compost won't help. This is a coco grower's approach. In compost the microbes are correcting the PH for you prior to delivering the nutrition to the plant's roots, so anything you're running through the soil won't have had the chance to have been affected by the soil life...

Quite dark patches with sudden edges at random places on the leaves.

Clover is a lighter compost than All-Mix so would have needed feeding sooner. Clear Phosphorus deficiency going on too IMO as already mentioned above. There has been a dodgy batch of Clover circulating in recent times but I think they've got it sorted now, which could explain the possibility of...

I wait until there's just enough root mass to hold the soil together but not choked up with roots. Transplant them now and you run the risk of the root-ball falling apart. In your situation I'd give it 3 or 4 more days but that's just me. Sorry, just noticed this was 4 days ago. Oh well.

I find sitting on top of the fridge-freezer for 12 hours with a tennis racket and singing George Formby songs helps put things into perspective.

My ex-boyfriend tripped and fell into my tent once, the bastard. One main stem and several branches snapped. If they're broken beyond repair, the leaves will very quickly become limp and lifeless, otherwise they can be held back together. Soldier on I say. ;-)

I use the 62s but I'm thinking of going for something like 54s. I find that I'm having to let the weed sit out for around 12 hours before use otherwise it just jams up the grinder. They definitely eliminate the need for burping the jars though so hassle free and no concerns of mouldy bud.

I think a lot of people make the mistake of setting them up when the soil is piss wet, something I'm sure could create the ideal environment for gnats/rot as the soil will remain at this moisture level. Once I've transplanted to the final pot I wait until the pot is about one half to two thirds...

Ah, couldn't see that in the pic - sorry. I did come across this elsewhere though and the plant started growing normally once it put out its second or third set of leaves. I wouldn't worry as long as she's healthy. That's the thing about us girls. Take good care of us and you'll get the...

Looks normal to me. Why do you think it's weird?

Hey Pacifier. Yeah, that bottom watering is dead easy, isn't it? I had some fantastic results doing it this way in living soil but I accidentally let the roots sit in standing water for too long and - well, you guessed it; root rot. Nowadays I use Blumat and love it. There's no need to even...

Thank you, although it's afternoon over the pond here in BunnyLand. Oops, just realised you sent that hours ago. Never mind. Mupp mupp

Thanks for the nice welcomes guys and apologies for the delayed response. I was out in the garden scouring for lettuce and it's time-consuming. Feeling hoppier already. :cool:

Bit of a giant leap in pot size IMO, unless it's an auto. Mine go up in stages to fill the final pot nicely with roots. Maybe check your root temps too. If you keep them warm then they'll dry out a little faster.

Ah there you go - 120W

Well it says 'Made in China' so i'd be sceptical at least. What's the make and model? Usually, when bought on one of the online marketplaces you can scroll down and find the actual wattage/power draw. Otherwise a quick web search should provide you with the technical info you need. My first...

Have you checked the actual wattage of that 300W light? It could be something more like 130W and you'll struggle to flower 5 autos with one of those. Sorry to bring it up but this little bunny made that mistake once.
