To be fair iam, they would want to have been lucky to get this far. Back in June/July it was freezing around my spot. Dirty, cold North Atlantic wind. Thinking about some semi auto's for outside next year though. Supposed to be ready for late September and they might get the burst of sunshine when the kids go back to school the last few weeks

Mould got 90% of the plant in the end, I will have 2 fans circulating air 24/7 now an exhaust also going 24/7 disposing of any moisture in the tents air. It's a terrible thing to happen as it ruins maybe 3+ months of getting that plant to harvest only to be left with shit at the end. I will do everything I can to stop it happening again.

i`m dreading it happening, its borderline in there everyday, and i can`t get away with a big exhaust fan going or i`d have one just to be done with it...

i am selling one of the leds and keeping one, you need good soil or hydro for led growing as far as i can see, so am gonna get a bag of biobizz all mix and try the led again but i will also buy a 400w hps kit when i sell one led just to insure yield, this is the setup now two lights one 250hps other 200 red cfl, the tops got a little too close to the bulb and look a little yellow, its alot futher away now with both bulbs in there

What's the story men, got 6 seeds planted today on my organic journey. 4 Sannies extrema,1 blue cheese and 1 bubba 76, all are fem. I will only have room for 4 so hopefully all of the extremas come up ok, but I wouldn't mind the blue cheese either. Planted the seeds directly into plagron batmix which is a bit hot for seedlings but I gave it a rinse through with some water first so hopefully I wouldn't have any stunting because of the soil.

That soil might be a bit spicy for your beans mate...!!! I hope im wrong of course..
I once threw a few beans in to canna soil and burnt the shite out of them... Never again..!

Alright lads. First dose of the PK last night at 1ml/L and 1 1/2 ml/L of A+B. Kept the EC to 1.2 and gonna work it up to 1.8 over the week

One of the seedlings germed with two stems? I have twins...

Story lads? Nice to have a read of posts of fellow Irish growers... The funnyest thing happened to me today. Landlord commented od electricity day time units to be quite high!:) Should I worrie about the bill? 400w HPS & 2x 150W CFL. The CFLs hanging only for the last month of flowering for extra boost... Any experience? Furthermore penalties if they get me growing 2 plants? Regards!

haven`t taken pic`s in awhile so got a bit happy with the camera when i was changeing the settings.. just ask a question or comment please mention pic number to help please, so you can see theres topped and un-topped, and the fim hahahaha whats the point really, might aswell just top...

also a sneak at the veg box, i know it looks like alot in there but remember there regs so i expect a high male ratio, i know they say 12/12 from seed gives a better fem ratio and i really hope thats a theroy thats on the ball....
