    Atami Wilma pipe size

    I have a 10 pot Wilma system and would like to change the stake drippers for a ring type instead for better coverage. Can anyone tell me what mm piping I need to do a diy job? Also I might need some T fittings for the same piping, Im not sure which ones would fit. Any help would be great.

    Calcium Nitrate/epsom salts - How much to add?

    Just one more question, Is it possible to use Calcium hydroxide in hydro? I have read that it is somewhat soluble in H2O, but the PH is very high. Would it be ok if neutralised? If so, How much to add to the Rez? Thanks!

    Calcium Nitrate/epsom salts - How much to add?

    Thanks for the help Atomizer, I'll just make a separate calcium nitrate concentrate without the epsom salts. So to be clear (having a slow day) 1.87g Calcium Nitrate per gallon of rez water?

    Calcium Nitrate/epsom salts - How much to add?

    hi guys, I have a calcium deficiency in my hydro grow. I am using coco coir and my plants are in really bad shape. I have bought 500g of Calcium nitrate and 500g of magnesium sulphate to make my own cal-mag diy additive. I found a recipe by 'fatman' but I am confused by the amounts needed...

    So all my plants went hermie

    I have 10 plants left from the same mothers that were put straight into 12/12 and they are hermieing too. Nowhere near as badly as the first lot, just a few tiny nanners. I fixed a small light leak that may or may not have been the cause. I am just going to pick off whatever little nanners...

    So all my plants went hermie

    I ended up ditching all of the plants, there were more pollen sacs than buds so I thought it not worth it to continue. My poor plants had a hard time in the first few weeks of veg , with almost freezing temperatures and a light leak probably causing them to shock and freak out. I'll live and...

    So all my plants went hermie

    My first hydro grow has turned banana shaped. I have 25 Sannies 'Madonna' in the 4th week of bloom and most have most have turned hermie. I'm pretty sickened. :wall: It was a light leak that caused it Im sure, or possibly genetics or shock. I pulled off 1 developed nana, but there are...

    The Irish Growers Thread!

    Yeah, I could just buy a standard grow/bloom, but from reading around the GHE flora nutes do look to be the best value, and even better value when used in the Lucas way. Advanced nutrients etc are pretty expensive in comparison depite being almost the same thing i believe. I'm only new at this...

    Should I prune?

    I am growing in an atami wilma 10 pot system. The strain is 'madonna', I vegged for 3 weeks before 12/12 and on the first week of bloom I pruned a lot of the lower branching. It is the end of week 3 of bloom now and all of the plants are growing into each other, both side shoots and fan...

    Atami Wilma 10 pot - What Strain?

    Hi guys, I have a 10 pot wilma system. The pots are small and close together. What would be a good indica/sativa strain that isnt too bushy with good yield suitable for growing in the wilma? Thanks for the help.

    Hi Prof, I did have the ppm up at around 800 for a few days to see how they got on, and I did notice a little of what looked like nute burn, so I added water to lower it again. The system Im using is an atami wilma, it is basically a recirculating drip setup with a rez and pump. One thing I...

    My plants are mutated and weak

    I am growing some sannies 'Madonna' strain clones in an atami wilma 10 pot using hydroton clay pebbles. The mother plants are doing great sitting in soil and the cuttings rooted just fine, some in rockwool, some in coco. The only thing is the clones were sitting around in the propagator for...

    The Irish Growers Thread!

    I'll have to try something because most of the plants are growing mutant weird looking leaves. It looks like something might be lacking in the Hydro nutes Im using. All other conditions I can think of seem ok. Might go back to soil, arghh :) It is disappointing for my first hydro grow.

    The Irish Growers Thread!

    Hi lads, I bet this has been asked a zillion times, but Im wondering what nutes you would recommend for a hydro drip system using clay pebbles? Its an atami wilma 10pot. I was thinking biobizz or advanced nutrients as they are available locally. Also, is Rhizotonic worth buying for my setup...

    Transplanted Clones are wilting in Hydroton.

    No, I forgot to PH those cubes before I stuck in the cuttings. They still rooted fine, albeit a little slowly. The wilting only happened since they were transferred to the hydroton. I'll give them another few days and see what happens.

    Transplanted Clones are wilting in Hydroton.

    Hi lads, I am on my second grow, the first was a soil auto lowryder. 5 Days ago I transplanted some rockwool rooted cuttings from a standard propagator into an atami wilma system with hydroton. Some are looking OK, but most are wilting or curling a bit. I have a 400w HPS over 3 feet above...

    Has anyone come across 'psilocybe cyanescens' also known as 'wavycaps' in Ireland? I found a fair few this year. Very stronge buggers, incredibly visual. In fact the patch I found is in its third flush right now. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psilocybe_cyanescens
