Not too bad for me,tent was around 26 (4x4),I'm top floor so the room is pretty chilled usually,its winter that may be a problem,flat gets very cold.So cold I think its going to be spring before I do another.For me,this little heatwave has been pretty good,apart from todays leccy bill for the last month,its that 6inch extraction fan thats costing so much.

32 for a few days isn't the end of the world in Coco or soil. It's a serious issue running hydro though.
Idk mate i run soil and i wouldnt be happy with temps that high anything above 29 isnt ideal obviously some stuff takes heat better than others of course but as a general rule especially in bloom you want lower temps not easy to do with the weather like it is mind you i often had to run the light on less power so it brings temps down you do what u gotta

Hello fellow uk growers, what nutes and mediums are popular to use. I imagine for the most part we have access to less products than other legal places. What's everyone having success with?
You can grow just as good as the Americans it's all about the money you got to spend and the time you can put in to your grow .... your local hydro shop will be stocked with all sorts and everything else is available online ....
Coco is my medium and a mix of canna , cx horticulture and floramax is my latest run with nutes everyone has something different

I've been running coco with advanced throughout my grows, though now I hav expanded a few times it's getting quite expensive and was looking for possible alternatives people have success with. I maybe plan to switch to Ionic coco nutes there Calmag and myco with mycochum and king crab.
Anyone have any experience with these products in particular using bennys/myco in coco?
My last grow is finishing up first time I ran myco grandular in coco/perlite and advanced. These are clones and this time round terps are off the charts! Hence my interest in microbes as I'm all about the terps:)

If your feeding right you dont need boosts as remember u are not feeding the plant your feeding the microherd in your compost/soil and in turn thats feeding your plant organics is a bit different vs chem feeds mate feeding with synthetics your feeding the plant directly more so vs the relationship between plant and medium more so with organics

I've heard often full organic bud has the best flavour, I hope trying to create a living root zone in Coco semi/organic grow trying to get benifts of both and a nice balance from each side.

Both can work together but to do that you have to go easy on the synthetics side or too much and you will kill off the beneficial micros and stuff the two done right together can work fine i prefer full organics but you can grow nice weed with either or a mix you do it right its just personal preference really

UK WEED PRICES
Just been told the price of weed in the UK has gone down to £80 an oz if buying a kilo or more, seems crazy cheap. I am in the North UK Carlisle area.
Is anyone else finding weed this cheap? Is it full of PGR?
Also been told that the grow shops are really struggling to keep afloat due to a lot of growers packing it in.
I live out in the sticks so only hear these tales when my friends from the larger towns visit me.

I'm around 40 mins from you bro, I hear its around 180 here but I don't buy it, my friends Manchester had some going for 150 and that was a 'bargin' but unsure of normal prices there must be quite high.
