So much enjoying the feelings of calm, peace here of late.. Thanks all..

Anyone care to recount the first time they got stoned? Smoked a joint? Passed out on a bong? As a school kid I knew this guy that had this bong that many of me mates passed out on after sucking a cone of dope that you got in the mid 70's. Decades later I blame the tobacco!

My first smoke was Easter 74. Huge swell on the S/E Coast NSW. Shit weed, but during a weekend of sleeping on the beach, (could not call it camping) it was enogh to make my last 2 years of high school forgettable.

First real smoke, I remember this guy had a jar, looked like vegemite, (late 70's) He got a knife and wiped the paste on a couple of papers.. Wrapped it. Half an hour later I was green.

What's your memories..? Back in the daze..

Used to live a stones throw away from a good surfing beach as a kid. Won't say an age, will make you all crook, but was a very fresh grom at the time. Older groms at the beach heard on the grapevine that my old boy grew, they coached me into stealing some bud for them, I found a bag of trim and took it up the beach, had no idea what was happening. Before I knew it, we were passing around a joint rolled out of newspaper, shit rocked me, just sat in the dunes for an hour or so spinning and spewing, couldn't wait to do it again.



been digging these girls lately, guitar tones take me back to pre high speed internet days

Seems to me you are all over it. The only thing I can think is the H2O2 is bad. Otherwise cant explain those ph fluctuations. How are the plants? If they look ok Id just switch nute companies and move on
I've learned a lot from reading Al B Fuct, just changed a few things here & there. I don't think the H2O2 would be bad, not at that concentration & it's only a few months old.

The plants looked OK up until the last couple of months when this precipitation thing started happening & everything slowed right down. I've chopped them all now & will give everything a thorough clean & reset with new clones.

The nutes themselves were fine during veg., but flowering has been very slow (12+ weeks, but I stuffed-up a couple of times whilst doing res. changes & they were without water & nutes for a week at a time) & the nugs kinda fluffy & foxtailing. I'm going to do things a bit different with this run & thinking I'll dose with some additional MKP from about week 4 or 5.

AND remind myself to put the drain outlet riser back in after doing the change:oops:

Great to see so many actives on here !

Looking for a dehumidifier that will handle high humidity, currently the retail stand alone units (~ 50L) are not cutting it.
No room for ceiling mounting units like Quest.

Was looking at 90-150L units but cant find any sold locally that are not even more expensive than quest...

Anyone found any good units they can recommend for our climate ?

Thanks

Definitely the one with the most personal argumentive cunts on here :o
i spose it just shows what a bunch of pot heads:weed: Aussies are:clap:
Aussies are meant to be one of the world's most laid-back populations & weed is just meant to make you even more laid-back, yeah? 'Dunno where this aggro. shit comes from.

Don't get me started on Alien-invasion conspiracy theories or I'll have to tell you about the time when...... Nah, maybe not.

'Must be something in the water, eh? Lesson there - don't drink the water - fish fuck in it:P

PS. No weed was consumed & no Leadbeater Possums were harmed in the creation of this post. I've been flat-out today pulling everything in my tent apart, cleaning, sanitising, up-potting & generally getting things ready for the next run. Thank god for Public Holidays!

Cant really go wrong with Al's style. I copied him as well in a lot of ways. Yeah its a weird one, the PH fluctuations would usually say to me pathogens but its weird how it comes and goes. Good luck!

Thanks mate. We're pretty-much on the same page, then.

The Professor's nutes have done me perfectly fine until now, as I just use them for vegging before the girls go outside. This is a new experience for me going full-term indoors. I just figured I'd try using the tents over winter & see if I can do it, rather than having them simply laying dormant.

I obviously need to re-think the indoor flowering thing. I've looked at Hydrobuddy, but got totally confused & wondering where/if I can source the raw materials locally.

This is obviously my own journey & my own indoor system to work-out, but anything you can help to accelerate this learning-curve would be most appreciated.

I dont think you need to rethink it, you are doing things right, as long as you are regular with your H2O2 dosing and res changes then its almost impossible to fuck up. I'd grab a 5L Canna A&B and do a full run with it and that way you can rule out the nutes. No additives. Process of elimination is all you can do sometimes.
