    How long until I can use Nutrients?

    i just use base nutes (A and B) throughout. a soil stim and flower stim combined with the base nutes for 2 weeks then switch the flower stim and soil stim for a nute called bloombastic by atami which pretty much does everything for your plants in flower. I have used it many times and always...

    How long until I can use Nutrients?

    I usually start at a lower dosage than recommended just for the first week and if the plants respond well then bump it up to recommended dose. Also I wouldnt water them every day. If you let the soil dry out more the roots will grow downward searching for water and you will get a stronger root...

    what nutes do you use in veg and in flower??

    Sounds like a bit of a science!! It always sounds complicated to someone else though. I like the sound of the start boost during the veg stage. How do you feel it affects the plants? I usually keep it very simple during the veg stage but I definately have room to add in a little boost nute if...

    what nutes do you use in veg and in flower??

    Any growers used the Sunmaster brand of 600w HPS bulb?

    This bulb seems good value but just wondering if anybody has any experience using this brand and if they were happy with the results/yield? Going to use 2 600w lights but any input at all would be appreciated on the brand and quality of the bulbs!:mrgreen:

    Less is more...or so im told???

    to be honest with you my last time through i was concerned with about 3 weeks to go as many leaves didnt look to healthy and the plants had a crispy look to them, however the actual buds looked very nice and grew at a good rate. I just put the yield down to space availability. It was very...

    Less is more...or so im told???

    thanks for the replys. Firstly im using bigger pots because even in the old smaller pots when it came to harvesting the roots had filled the full pot and pretty much maxed out there space. i figured it couldnt hurt after the advice given by someone who knows more than myself. This time im NOT...

    Less is more...or so im told???

    gold speccles all over plants...

    Im not keen on the idea of posting pics on this site or any other. I dont think its a pest problem but i will have a good look for any signs of pests in around and under the foilage. I think it may be to do with a deficiency of some kind but it can b quite tricky to determine the problem...

    gold speccles all over plants...

    My plants are no way near dying but they dont look as healthy as previous crops. Iv fed exactly the same as in the past but this time the plants have developed gold speccles on a good percentage of the leaves. I was thinking of just feeding with water for maybe 2 or 3 feeds and watching how the...

    to top or not to top?

    Ok, so last time round i grew out 17 cheese plants in 15litre pots under 2 600w hps in a SOG style grow. I pretty much left them to do there thing and was pleased with the end result (28 oz dry) but want to improve on this yield. Who wouldnt! Does anybody know how or when to top these ladies in...

    when do most of you start your plants on the basic a and b?

    I know everyone is different and last time round i didnt use any nutes untill they had been vegging for about 3 weeks. The grow was successful and i never had any plant issues at all. I was just wondering if people start there ladies off on basic nutes much earlier than i did and if they feel it...

    When to start flushing, harvest, first grow so looking for some help.

    My last grow i only flushed for 5 days and in that period i flushed on day one angain on day 3 then left to dry out for 2 days before harvers. The smoke tasted beautiful and not harsh in anyway. Id also used a pretty heavy nute called bloombastic but all was good. Never tried not flushing but...

    Ok so im waiting on some cheese cuttings. I finished a 17 plant cheese SOG grow about the 5 of last month in 15 litre pots under 2 600w hps bulbs. I pulled 28 ounces dry. Last time round the cuttings were cared for in an attic with a heat tube next to a plastic tub containing the cuttings in...
