i got mine at amazon.com (dont know if they ship to the uk) but there really cheap anywhere from 3-10 dollars. oh yea and if i were u i would get a 30x because the one i have is 60x-100x and let me tell you that is way too much zoom lol i mean mines works really good and everything but i think its a little overkill if your just using it to look at trichs[
/QUOTE]

Exactly! guess its the joy of 4 plants though give myself a pick n mix bag! Only thing I dont like about my autos is the lack of stink, I mean my LSD really stunk but I can barely smell shit unless I shake her oh well guess its safer, I guess..

On another note just took auto marias height at 21.5 inches or 55cm, was hoping for more but oh well!

Well i gave in and bought some bud booster flowering food stuff but i was wondering do i keep using my normal plant food alongside with it, the stuff doesnt say to or not to hmmmmm help mee! it doesnt say F all, Ive never used any flower food or boosters or whatever they are called so its totally new for me, I tend to like to keep it simple considering it can grow outside without my damn help, but everybody seems to use it couldn't get tigerblood =( so got vitalink which was reccomended by my dads mate he swore it massively increased his yield so worth a shot.

Sorry man i dont know anything about the bud boosters but ive heard of people using them and they say the same as your dads mate, that it makes your buds explode! id like to get some myself but i just dont have the funds right now. i would guess that u add it to your regular feed, but dont take my word for it!

hmm thats what I thought I read the ingredients its just plant food but higher dose...lol anyway it was only £6 bout $9 bucks I think that is? Ill let you know but ive always been pretty sceptical, especially the ones that claim to make your stems explode with bud everywhere so it just pretty much becomes a big bud...lol but im like you I dunno, I hear that tiger blood is meant to be amazing but thats too expensive for a maybe lol

Just ordered a 30X loupe we shall see if its enough,

Noticed the new bud food made my leaves greener but thats bout it- It occurred to me last night that how can you say it massively increased your yield becasue the plant could of turned out like that anyway lol well unless you had two identical plants I guess...Ah well

hey maybe after afew feedings youll see BIG results, and if the leaves are getting greener at least somethings happening right. Your right though, unless u did a side by side with 2 plants you would never know if it actually works.

Took the close ups by putting the Loupe over my phone lense, got a 60X one coming as well. Enjoy!

you can see in the pics vertigo is yellowing on the leaves, anybody got an idea why? Can toss up between too little nitrogen or too much zinc or something else yellow is the worst colour its like cancer, everything gives you it..:(

is it yellowing from the bottom to the top with the bottom starting to get yellow before the top (can't tell accurately from the pic)? - if so its a N def. Or you PH could be off causing a small lockout, do you have a meter?

Hey Hoss thanks for coming to the rescue again! its yellowing from the tip then gradually working towards the stem, its just the fan leaves and its just on Vertigo, aside from it the plants budding nicely. As for PH my friend came over with a liquid test and did a run off and said the colour was between 5 and 6 which apparently is fine. Just read my food though so Nitrogen may be a problem as I switched to the budding food and it doesn't contain Nitrogen just pottasium, phosphorous, magnesium and sulphate. The food I used for just growing though contains nItrogen should I switch back or maybe use together?

I would suggest using together, if they are yellowing as you describe it sounds like a N def which I had on my last grow. See the pics of the blackbriar in my journal. I was able to, by feeding with a higher N formula on an accelerated rate bring it back to par and get a nice finish on her. Best of luck mate.

Cheers Hoss just had another read of your thread, its odd that one plant in the exact same conditions can suffer uniquely! I gave them a mixed solution so we shall see how she reacts!
