I just finished 2 of them m8, 1 taller pheno gave me 2 oz nice tight bud, the othe was smaller & rather leafy ! Not a bad smoke, not much of a flavour though !
ive grown a free seed before and it had a lot more budd than leaf. the taste wasnt the best, i found it an earthy sort of taste but it was covered in crystals. ill be getting some of that guanokalong, its supposed to improve taste and smell

Them wilma systems work best IMO with clones m8, at the start I was doin a few diff seeds in them and it can be hectic all growin at diff size and pace. I done the blue widow in mine, two in a the 4 pot and scrogg them, they seemed to love the wilma system m8. I surprised myself when I pulled 16 o from them but there wer quite a few seeds cos the bastards hermied on me
i get that mate, i want to be running clones soon but i want to find a few keepers first. the ones that are different sizes were put in at different time due to 2 mutant looking amnesia that i threw away. the amnesia had a 3 week veg but the PE got thrown in at the start of flower and a white widow went in about a week after that because the mrs made me just as i was pulling the seed case off a blue widow and i snapped that fucker lol. the PE looks about 3 weeks into 12/12 and the white widow looks about 2. heres an old pic so you can see what i mean. i had a few pollen sacks and seeds with it but ive got that dutch masters reverse. i found a pollen sack on a mutated fan leaf that had some budd growing out of it so i sprayed them down and i havent noticed anything since

@bazz no i havent mate. i was looking at the budd candy, it costs more but you use less so its probably the same cost wise. i just decided to go with the guano stuff because fellow members here have used it. i was looking at this pack because i fancied a change from canna boost http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Advanced-Nutrients-Meal-Deal-Big-Bud-Overdrive-Bud-Candy-1lts-/180832375132?pt=UK_HomeGarden_Garden_PlantsSeedsBulbs_JN&hash=item2a1a73115c but its quite expensive

all depends on what mendium you got in there. hand watering coco or soil is fuck all but those clay pebbles dry out quick. ive got mine watering every 2 hours now and they seem to love it

In my two 9 systems some plants grow better than other, just depend wer there situated at. Next time I'm only runnin 8-9 in the same two systems but might cut a sheet of 9mm ply to fit over each system and cut out 4 holes in each for wer I want the plants to be, see how that goes

aye m8, keep the pump on 15 mins every two hours and they'll be all good, what about them drippers, what sorta flow u got now mrt

its doing the job mate. i put a bigger pipe on and got a more powerfull pump but it dont look much different. i think i was being paranoid. i thought the pot would fill up being as they call it flood and drain lol. i checked the clay about an inch below the surface and it was wet so i think its all good

i wanted to make a mini scrog screen out of 2-3mm stainless steel with a bit of fencing over it with 50mm holes and have another 2-4 bars as legs sort of things sunk into the clay. i got hight problems as it is without the extra hight lost through the wilma rez. so ive had to bend these over at the main stem when they finished stretching

Ye get them for different sizes off tents and u can put the frame in at the start and put the metal racks on when needed, easily moved up and down and not too dear by the time u go and buy all the shit and make one

So only solutions containing NPK are subject to EU fertiliser legislation, solutions containing chemicals and PGR's like Triacontanol and GA must simply be labelled 'plant food' as long as the info on the container is a "fair description of it's contents and actions".

Next up, the US.

On it Don!
