Thanks! Maybe it's fine then. Guess I'll turn my lamp back up high! It is interesting you mention potassium, because earlier in the grow I took off some leaves which appeared to indicate a potassium deficiency. It hasn't shown up since, but I suspected at the time the slightly high PH level was...

It is not coco. It is Plagron Allmix prefertilized soil, which admittedly has a PH slightly too high at 7,5. I've been trying to get it down with concentrated lemon juice without succes and will be switching to proper PH-down soon. Since the soil is prefertilized I have not been feeding nutes...

On my 40 day old autoflower I have been seeing the leaves curl upwards and the leaf tips turning yellow. The internet told me this may be light stress, can anyone confirm? I have attached pictures. It would surprise me, because I have only a 100w lamp at 34cm distance and I have dialed it all...

Hi everyone, I'm growing an autoflower in a small grow box and I'm curious if it is possible to grow some other fruit or veggie in addition, in the same grow box. For example, could I grow strawberries or tomatoes? Or even lettuce? Some areas in my grow box gets less light, maybe those are...

So to confirm, in this case you would opt for putting the lamp on 70-80% with 29-30 degrees celcius over putting it on 60% and staying at 28 degrees celcius?

Great, good to know, because it seems like I'll be pushing 29-30 degrees celcius most of the time. It's a 40x40x100cm (1.5ft by 1.5t by 3.5ft) IKEA METOD kitchen cabinet.

Yes, I know, but I'm wondering what I should set it to maximally during bloom and late veg

I'm about to start my first grow and I am growing in a very small kitchen cabinet with a 100 watt quantum board. But I misjudged how much exhaust ventilation is needed to keep temperatures in check, so I can't put the lamp on maximum intensity without overheating the grow space. What would you...

I'm starting my first grow with one. I'm curious to know how much yield are you getting and in what size grow area? And do you set it to 100% or lower?

Thanks! Also thanks for sharing those pictures. That looks like a pretty small growbox, like I am planning myself. Would you tell me how high your growbox is? What size pots do you use and how high do the plants get with them?

Aliexpress sometimes sells legit electronics, but you have to do a lot of research and careful reading to avoid bad buys. For electronics it is best to stick to a handful of reputable sellers on aliexpress. Some of the unbranded stuff may also work, but images can be deceiving. I think this...

Hi everyone, Can anyone please tell me if I can put an autoflower seed directly into store bought pre-fertilized soil? Or do I need to pour a little lighter soil in the middle for it to sprout properly? For photo's I've seen people recommend using a light potting mix during the seedling stage...

I've considered setups like this too, but while the cost of the lights themselves is low I think adding eight sockets/holders for the lights and power cords are a 'hidden cost' that will likely push the total purchase price up to a less budget-friendly level

Hi, I'm a newbie grower, so not sure if I have anything to offer an experienced grower! :razz: But I was recommended the Phlizon PL-1000 which is a 100w dimmable QB, which fits your budget of about £50. Maybe you should look into that!:blsmoke:

I would be curious to know if regular store bought LED light bulbs could work as a cheap solution. Something like this for example. Perhaps someone with more experience can comment if these would be suitable if you used two or three of them?
