I think they had some stuff that fits the description at my local too....but its more for stimulating bud sites ,,,not so much for neutralising male flowers...
Which is what I need for my unpredictable ladyboyz

oh nah he deffo said that it's exactly the same thing as blast, but it works out cheaper coz you dilute it yourself and it makes a few litres or something.

i'll pop in when i pass there next, it'll be some time this weekend no doubt :)

I just used this neat Ozzi product on my suspect clones .....hopefully it is the answer to my problems
Careful with this gear.
My mate sprayed the whole bottle (stupid him) in a 3m tent. He was running straight water in his reservoir (flood and drain) it made its way through the rocks and took his EC to 36. (200L Reservoir).

Its $18 a bottle out this way..

Hey guys just thinking with this heat, what is the ideal temp for your reservoir?
Ive been looking on ebay and thinking about getting a car fridge for about $100, for that price you will only get one that will hold 18 litres but for me thats fine.
They claim to cool 20 degrees below ambient, but even if its 10 degrees that might be good enough depending on your room temp.
Most of them have 12v and 240v leads/plugs and drilling an inlet and outlet through the lid wont be hard either.
What do you think?

I think its alot of work for something that can be achieved through dropping in iced-water bottles about 30min before feeding. This way it wont affect ur PH as the Ice melts and u can pull them out once u reach ur ideal temperature.. Which is 18 degrees. Once it hits over 21 in ur res is wen u start to develop root problems and the plant cant uptake nutrients properly.

I know what you mean but ill be using autopots that are gravity fed by the reservoir so feeding time is always if you know what i mean.
Ok so over 18 degrees is no good, how cool can you go before causing problems?

I *think* 12 degrees is the lowest u can go without shocking.
If ur using autopots 2 feed then wat good does a water cooler do u anyway? Even if u get it at 18 when it floods ur pots it will raise a few degrees quite quickly..

you fell victim to the bunnings vortex. it's a common phenomenon, i dont think i've ever left there without buying at least one item, it's impossible. even if they dont have what i came for they still have something else i want lol

I just got back from Bunnings, god daym i love that place. Got 4 x 24 watt CLF's and all the wiring for like $30
!
Thats like 500watts of light baby!

Is that too much for my stunted little plants? :D
Btw they picked up and are doing ok now, the bigger one is skyrocketing and isn't so spindly anymore, and the little one seems to have leaves!!!!

The equivalent wattage figures mean absolutely nothing mate. You have 96W.

Anyway I was back in at bunnos today. Bought some white mdf and some wood for a frame and built my mate a 1200x800x800 cabinet. Also did some wiring for my new light fittings. Was a very productive day!
