    2x2' Tent/2x 120W Samsung QB/60L Pot/Organic soil/White Widow/LST

    You are totally right. I use coco in my ferns (1:3) with success and give it a try in this mix. I've read about coco caused nutrient unbalance only after mix everything (research, research, research, just to increase the amount of mistakes, welcome to my life). I only used 1:5 coconut in the...

    2x2' Tent/2x 120W Samsung QB/60L Pot/Organic soil/White Widow/LST

    Yes. There is 1:5 of coco coir in the soil (in powder form, not entire fibers). I use it just to increase water retention in the mix. This was my first organic soil recipe. In the last cycle I have problems with magnesium deficiency that forced me to add magnesium sulfate when watering (coco...

    Hello there, I'm starting a new cycle and, this time, I'll try to get everything registered. Yesterday I soaked one seed (Dutch Passion WW) in tap water and I'll transfer it today to a 300ml cup. Meanwhile, I'll be cleaning the tent with H2O2 and making some minor upgrades. The pot (60L) and...

    Powdery mildew?

    I only have one plant and there are no more visible fungus spots. I'm going to try milk, peroxide and soap to see if I can keep it from growing again. My city is very dry but these days it rained a lot. Ventilation was not enough either. This created a good environment for the fungus. I had...

    60 liter pot drain and watering

    I finally got a 60 liter pot for my 2x2 cabin do I have to put a (gravel) drain layer? I have doubts on how to water the plant in this large pot too. Should I moisten the soil before transplanting the seedling? When watering, should I wet the entire surface or just around the seedling?

    no perlite and no peat soil

    I was researching locally available slow release potassium sources. The only one I found was Saltpeter from Chile (potassium nitrate), but it has a lot of N. I have a little wood ash but I don't know how much to use. There are other easy-to-get alternatives, but only for watering or foliar spray...

    3rd week of flowering, yellow leaves

    The plants have been in these pots for 5 weeks. I will try to implement the sips or try another way to keep the roots moist I'll try to correct it in the next soil batch. Half would be enough? Should I forget about the deficiency and correct these defects first? Can I prune the yellowed...

    3rd week of flowering, yellow leaves

    Thank you bro. I made these cuts to test my clone machine, it wasn't really to increase budsites (not the first intention). I am testing LST, mainfold, in different plants, to know which technique I adapt best. Everything is more difficult when we try to do it in practice :) Your guess is...

    3rd week of flowering, yellow leaves

    Hello guys, my girls are in the third week of flowering and the bottom leaves are turning yellow. I was wondering if it is normal or if I should supplement. I made the organic substrate myself, I don't know if it's well balanced. Thanks,

    How many watts in a 2x2 tent?

    Hello guys, I managed to configure the quantum boards and the driver, with a Kill-A-Watt to measure the power. Everything ok and running. My tent is 2x2 (60x60cm). How many watts should I apply to the boards in the veg and flowering phases? Thanks a lot for the help.
