The UK Growers Thread!

howdy peoples

always fancied a go at coco but if im gonna av to get a ec,ph pen and keep checks on the readings etc then why not go straight to hydro? seems like a go between from soil to hydro? grown properly in coco is there any real advantages like the way some say organic soil weed grown right taste best or that hydro yields and is faster for growth.

this headband i read people talking about is it not a clone-only from the states? i thought reserva privada where the only people to sell seeds of headband and i think its pretty fair away from the real clone-only strain could be wrong tho ive never grown or smoked it.
 
i wouldnt trust myself without them, so dus coco also act as a buffer like soil concerning p.h? or are you testing the once or twice noing what ur nutes n water readings are then just not bothering again?

its fairly easy bro, just mesure up ur nutes, ph down and feed like compost :) a lot of folks dont use ec/ph pens but get good results, personaly i think the ph is one of the most important bits, but people like ttt/westy/donny show me different ;)
 
cheers las

yeah i no lots dont use the ec/ph pens and have amazing plants still, its just the trying something new and im fucking useless at most things lol am bored with soil tho and finally bout to start my OWN fing again

http://www.1-hydroponics.co.uk/hydroponic-systems/4-pod.htm i keep looking at this hydro system i actually brought it bout 6yrs ago when i didnt have a clue lol i didnt even no how to germ a seed then so obviously it was a complete fuck up i didnt even get as far as the seeds germinating lol still ya live n learn.
 
lmao its like the atami wilma but flood and drain not dripper. i have a 4 berth wilma, she might re surface one day as i'm sure i'll make a return to the coco at some point. i've got that dwc bubbler as well lmao. i've already got knats from the homebase soil :( got some pest strips on the way and gonna order some neem oil to feed in the soil

gnat off works pretty good.......
 
ey up sambo man! if your going hydro the pens and meters are a must but if not n just doing coco in pots then i wouldnt bother with them. their not necessary. im going to kick off my autopots soon and im thinking i might need a pen for the res but then again i figure that what ive got in my bottles of feed will be the same as having it in a res so ill probably not bother then either.

you get my rep a while back man?

I didn't have a ph pen for the first 7 weeks of flower and the buds were lacking big style, when I measure it, my ph was 7.8/7.9 lol so it's no wonder. Got it sorted and they've already started to pick up thankfully.

Haha, fucking hell, shows what the pills have come to, you have to take 12 to get a good buzz. Guessing you didn't sleep for a couple of days?

still not proud of me actions felt proper scummy getting home sat n thinking to meself ''how old are you dickhead'' nevermind such is life.
 
I don't bother with EC. My nuterients are from a company that quite obviously intend to continue making sales thus making money, so i read the instructions on the bottle and that's that. I see taking ec readings as being awfully pedantic, i think the people that do this are the ones that tend to their plants, check the reseroirs and such every 25 mnutes. I throw the nutes in and don't touch it again till the bastards empty :)
