thanks for the advice tellno1, I'll take that on board =) If anyone has more input on this it would be much appreciated. Cheers

Hi folks, I've literally just started to grow Great White Shark and have a few questions. Since my last grow didn't do so well I want to make sure this one turns out OK. I have germinated 8 seeds and am using a 400W HPS light. Is this light strong enough to deliver the lumens/heat needed for 8...

just tested the pH there and its showing that its still a little alkalie - is it fine to flush again with the water and lemon juice? or do I need to wait until the plants need watering again?

Ive added just over 1/4 a tbsp of lemon juice to my water then watered the plants - hopefully there will be a drop in PH when I test it in a few hours! Does anyone know if I need to keep doing this every time I water? Cheers

I did a PH test yesterday and it showed the soil was more on the alkaline side

If I change the PH of the soil, do u think that they'll come back to health?

cheers shadeslay i'll have a wee read about that :)

Thanks Bamfrivet. When is the best time to check the ph of the soil? when it has just been watered or just before watering? Im about to do a ph test. I didnt think to test my tap waters PH as I assumed it was around neutral. How do I go about ajusting the PH with a lemon? Do I just juice it over...

DIY sounds good. do I just add these to the water? or just put them ontop of the soil? cheers :)

The light is 400W. I read somewhere that it was to be just over a meter away from the plants when they are young. I have a fan which is also on a timer blowing into the room with the door ajar, although I dont have any extraction fan or anything.

I use the plates really just to catch the water so it doesnt go on the floor, i empty them if there is water in them. Should they be removed completely? Im growing skunk NO1. I water them with tap water, but only if it has been sitting out for a few days to get rid of the chlorine. Im just...

yeah I read somewhere to let some water come out the bottome so you dont drown them. Not sure if thats right though

my temps are usually around 80F. cant put the plants outside lol. neighbours would have a fit lol

where can I buy PH solution and how do I add it? cheers

Its soil with added perlite. I tried a PH test a couple of weeks ago and it was slightly more on the acidic side. I thought I would have buds and onto a diff lighting schedule but I was waiting till there were about 12" tall lol. Its not going very well

I know, it sucks lol. I havent used any nutes at all. I read that the soil Im using has enough nutes for the plants full life cycle. I used John Innes NO1 for the first 6 weeks or so, then I repotted them with John Innes NO2 soil and into bigger pots because I thought I was maybe stunting their...

hey folks, I'm having some trouble with my grow - its been nearly 8 weeks in veg and they have only grown about 6". I thought I would be into flowering by now. The plants dont look as healthy as they did, the leaves seem to be getting lighter, there are some spots on them and they are a bit...

hey folks. I have started growing skunk no 1. I've had them in veg stage for about 7 weeks and they are only about 5 or 6 inches tall. Is this normal? I thought that I would be in flowering stage by now. I'm using a 400W light with reflector and have just repotted into a bigger pot as I...
