Happy birthday Fred me old China.
I've never had spiders (touch wood) but I do get predator mites for them and I get the other type that eat thrips too. I also get beneficial nematodes for fungus gnat larvae. I use those on every grow. Belt and braces, prevention is better than cure and any other sayings you can think of lol

Hope you had a good day fred. :) Hugs to the kids, and mom and dad too.
The last test was a bit of an anti climax. They need to be more ruthless. England won't get to number one in the ICC rankings by taking their foot of the gas like that. The ODI's start on Tuesday. I'm not sure if Jos Buttler will be playing. I hope so after the way he played against Pakistan. I don't trust Pakistan to play to win. It seems like they lose from a winning position too many times for it not to be suspicious. That young one that got jailed in England for spot fixing is playing against New Zealand at the moment. It should be a life ban for anyone found guilty of that kind of thing.

Call me a pushover, but I feel bad for the kid. Don't think he should have got off or anything, just that it's shitty how his captain was in on it/ pushing him towards it (if you believe the kid at least). It's all shitty, though and why I love the ashes, to me there's no question the two sides are trying as hard as they can to win.

I'm not so into one day cricket, we'll see if I catch any of the matches. That last test was a dud.

You got a link for all those bugs you buy? And like how many do you use for what size garden?

That's the ones I get. The spider ones are one the left and thrips to the right. The nematode things come in a little plastic box in a putty like substance. I get them from a shop called Growell. It's like a chain of shops and I'm pretty sure they do mail order. They are about a quid a sachet. I put two of each on every plant.

Someone asked Andrew Flintoff if he'd done anything to influence the outcome of a game and he said yes every game he plays he's trying to influence the result to win and that's the way it should be. Everyone trying as hard as they can to win.

the cloners still frigging leaking. I've determined the issue isn't the hole for the power cable but the fact that the floors aren't level and the splashes are simply gravitating to the hole naturally ffs. Doubled up 2 cuts to each neoprene disk or there about.

How bad is it leaking? Is it safe to use? Could you stand the whole thing in something?
That's a lot of cuts. I hope your labelling is up to scratch lol

I popped a Sensi super skunk and two Sensi Jack flash and I don't know which is which already lol
They look awful too.

Its only a small amount really I've put a tub down to catch it overnight and see what can be done the morrow. Annoyingly this cupboard was plastic lined up until recent pull down.

My labelling was bang on today stuck parts of a plastic cup in between the neoprene and the collar. Did each strain separately so unless I do something truly stupid like kick it over it should be fine. Famous last words...

Sensi super and jack flash eh. Circa? You had em stashed or they new?

They from around '07 ish. I'm surprised they even germinated. They look almost albino. I've overwatered them. I haven't even watered them though. I just had the coco too wet when I put them in.
Any tips for coco? It's my first time using it. Is it like soil? You water/feed when the pot is light?

Coco is essentially hydro, its inert medium & holds no nutes so once its reached about 2 weeks ish it can take a light feed after that you feed every water. Pretty foolproof tbh.

Some mix in perlite some don't. You can re use it if you use certain products like hygrozyme I think its called, turns old dead root to food.

Otherwise aye much like soil.

I've layered it with hydro pebbles.
When you say like hydro. Do you use EC or ml per litre to measure the feed? So far I've been doing 3ml per litre of base nutrient along with root stimulator. The cuts seem fine so far but I haven't had a look since the transplant yesterday.

That's how they look now. In NFT I would flower them in around 7-10 days from now. Which I'll probably do this time because there are eight this time rather than the six I have been doing. If I get around six a plant I'll be happy with that. I hope I'm not expecting too much. With six I used to get about eight and a half a plant like clockwork image.jpg
