My seedlings have really suffered from having an inspection...(they got a new home at a mates place and they just didn't get the loving care they needed)

They are very upset...burnt tips, pale and limp...just not happy.

I re-potted them and have been giving them some rhizo foliar spray...every day.

One of the vortex has thrown out some new leaves...but the 2 jilly are looking really down.

Anything else I should do...these seedlings are a month old and look pretty shit. It's not like I haven't grown seedlings before...just never under fluros. Have em under 2 t8s. Moved em up a notch and doubled the lighting. Vortex really bounced back from that. AoS is the one doing the best though.

That was my last inspection until I move into my own place :) No more inspections...that is, after the first 2 months were we have everyone we know basically come through and see the whole place.

seedman, have you not gone into my thread!!!??? do you realize this is a 1.2 metre square plant that takes up the entire tent, and each and every head is being supported with 2 layers of netting. lol, there is NO moving this plant in any way!! some colas weigh in excess of 70-80 grams wet!!! this plant will be harvested and dried before inspection. please have a good look at the size of my plant. this plant can't support itself!!! i can't hug 1/4 of this plant! this is a 100% perlite grow (hydroponics) there is no removing this plant from it's root zone, absolutely impossible. 1.2 metres square, thats how big this plant is if i cut the net everything would collapse. simple as that



Impressive! Even the bottom buds are substantial in size under the canopy. Very well done Flow.

fucking cyco nutes piece of shit. wont ever be buying cyco nutes again.

i am now more convinced than ever that it was the cyco zyme that gave me root rot.

just opened a brand new bottle of bloom A. never opened seal still in place. poured it out into my measuring cup and it had gollies floating in it. i thought that was odd looked in the bottle and there was big black chunks of mould floating in there.

yeah fuckin binned alright. pretty pissed. i didnt pay for them in the first place so its not the money its just the fact that it could be that easy to fuck your whole grow up again. i cant believe they charge so much for this garbage. my plants on the gh nutes look nicer anyway so im going back to using them. might try out some h & g further down the track maybe but for now im really happy with gh

i would have paid it if they were worth it and i saw some kind of significant difference except the only difference i saw is mould
i gotta say man that sucks, but it sounds like you didnt get fresh nutes, it does have a shelf life of 2 years, and i have seen old stuff looking like that, it has live microbial life in it, thats why it went mouldy. there are alot of gimmick sellers that get the shit cheap on ebay, and flog it off, i am most aware of this, if the cyco isnt in the new blueish grey bottles with the cyco logo on the actual bottle itself dont use it.

that sucks ass, but i guarantee if its fresh its the shit :) i but a prokit box each grow direct from a source, but discount hydroponics will always be fresh, trust me

cyco tried to make people aware of their new bottles to let people know, but its hard when it isnt exactly advertised, but this is from a true source, new bottle are the go mate, there is stuff getting round thats years old, not cycos fault, just dicky sales fuks floggin it out

flowie i can post pics of the bottle if you want but yeah its fresh and i spoke to my guy today as we are actually becoming quite good friends now. he runs a very professional store with a high turn over so nothing stays on the shelf long and in the case of the pack i got, well i won that in a christmas giveaway and the pro kits that he was giving away were given to him by the cyco rep to distribute. sort of like advertising.

advertising fail. cyco will never have me as a customer. gh is simpler the plants seem happier the n-p-k ratios are closer to what they should be and i have never opened a bottle to find it contaminated.

im sure many people will grow with it and never have an issue i was probably just unlucky but once bitten twice shy. fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me and all that jazz. i will be spending my hard earned dollars on a product that i know i can rely on. and i will only have to part with about half as much aswell.

damn, that really sucks :( not many cyco growers on here, hey if i see any issues, i'll find something new for sure, till then, i get it at a sweet price, and haven't seen any bad bits or mould thats for sure!! but i do know, that the last 2 years they have been making their stuff themselves and gotten rid of the lazy asses who were making the shit for them, and everything is in new bottles, this is what they should look like, if they dont, they didnt make it..trust me, this is down the road from me mate ;)

the wanks who used to make it cheated the recipe of advanced nutrients. and then it went from there.....most of the products are gimmich products i think. u dont need dr repair. or zyme, or uptake for that matter, i have seen just as good results without

let me know if they are the same bottles man!!

damn, yep that suks ass, and i will be passing this on dont you worry, straight to head office !!! ;)

if i saw mould in my bottle, i would go down there and pour it out on the ground in front of them, and demand a heap of free shit and then never go back, and use what you can salvage from their free shit i suppose! mould just doesnt make sense in that amount of time to me. especially in a sealed bottle!!!??? fuckers. and i get such sweet results, it makes me a bit spun if you know what i mean! i lovem but i fuckin hatem! actually i find alot of places in this world becoming useless. like fast food joints to name 1. damn retarded kids cant even put salt on chips, let alone cook them until they are crispy!! u fukin went back and threw that shit through their window, i got free nuggets and gravy and a pepsi for free!! fukem, yes that is KFC

some people just cant run a business and maybe cyco is heading that way!? i'll start mixing my own shit up!!!

FlowaMasta's brew elixir !! i can see it now bit of piss, bit of thrive, good to go ;)

like i said im sure it was probably a one off. i doubt its happening all over the place or they wouldnt have a business. im going to go buy another bottle of bloom A so i can finish this grow using the cyco stuff so i can compare. but i honestly think the plants look happier on flora nova anyway.

i will say this though. the b1 boost is great so good that i searched for an alternative to use with my flora nova and thanks to supasmoka i purchased some nutriboost and i think its better than cyco's b1 boost anyway thanks to the added 1naa or whatever it is so i will be using that from now on.

also the xl is good stuff and i will be buying that to use with my flora nova as well.

similarly if i see good results with the potash or swell i will be searching for similar products with them aswell. if i do in fact find that cyco products are the best in this area i will add them to my lineup im not descirminating against them entirely i just think that for the same money there are better products on the market that do the same thing.

i just think as a base nutrient flora nova is hard to go past in my limited experience. you only have to open the bottle and see the stuff to know your plants are going to love it. its a super thick gluggy black brown sludge that is so strong i use less than 1ml a litre to get over 1000ppm so its really efficient. not to mention its just one bottle for veg and one bottle for bloom so in comparison to get to 1000ppm with cyco it is 2ml a litre a + 2ml a litre b. nova is just 1ml per litre from one bottle. that cuts costs dramatically right there
