Dutch Pro sound good mate i may look into them myself. I asked some advice in the hydrponics forum and they say im going over the top with the AN nutes i planned on using.

I like the idea of less bottles with dutch pro though:) Canna seem ok but im sure my ph problems are due to nute build up in the clay balls so im keeping the res below them now.

Here is a couple of pics, The freak haze has been tied down 4-5 times already and is caining nuites like mad, id say 3-4 ltrs a day already:).

Just checked out the Dutch Pro mate and im game for trying them i think. There Explode product is more expensive than Canna Boost but your still saving loads as there other nutes are reasonable and there are less extras to have to buy.

Would you just use the Grow, Bloom and Explode mate? Would there be any need for PK with these?

To be honest I am not too sure, my mate uses them I'll ask him later... I have loads of Canna still to use up 1st but when I do finally use it all up I will defo be going with Dutch-Pro ...I think from memory he uses all of them except 'PH up, PH down, Green Leaf?,'

I must say from the sample he gave me of the bud he grew with just 1X 250W Envirolite CFL... The buds came out dense, tasty and a very smooth smoke indeed.. there was a very buddy flavour present that I have missed with Canna.. although with certain additives ie Bud Candy I have over-come this :)

I will also ask at my local Hydro Store n see if a PH Agent is needed - STELTHY :leaf:

Im having to tie this freak haze back everyday now lol, ive done the other haze also but the freak one just wont stop growing and its growing fast lol.

While i was just tying her back i was trying to lean over and get to a branch at the back, it was only a thin branch but it had stretched, as i was putting the string round it it snapped so im hoping it wont cause any problems, luckily its on the freak haze so hopefully it should be ok.

A few update pics, day 25 of flower. These girls are def coming along alot faster than my previous grow. I deally the lights need rasing but im trying to hold out until the front indica has stretched a bit so i can take advantage of having the light at the same height. Im gonna bend her back again in a moment and hopefully that will be it:)

I forgot to say i think i may get intouch with the guy i got my buckets off and see if he can supply me 8 lids with smaller holes in them. Its def build up in the stones that was lowering the ph, thing is though these baskets there in are massive, to have the nutes below it means im only using half of my buckets.

Obvioulsy im hoping a smaller basket will equal less stones so less build up,.

Yeah smaller net pots are defo the way forward I use the 2nd smallest ones you can fit 1 Rockwool Cube in them and about a desert spoon of hydro-clay balls :) :) This gives you maximum room in the DWC Res. tubs for both nuits and roots :) it should also help you control your PH :) - STELTHY :leaf:

I was thinking the same mate, im also thinking they will grow quicker as the roots will be coming out of the baskets alot quicker:)

I had another accident today when i was tying the freakback, i snapped another bud:( It was still connected by a small thread so i cellotaped thwe stem back together and ill see how she goes. Really droopy at the moment butill giver her a couple of days and if it doesnt pick up ill remove it.

Its really tight for room in my cabs as the freak haze alone could of filled it i rekon. I just keep tying her back and hopefully it wont stretch for much longer.

Ive just finished tying the freak down again lol, ive bent the blue venom slightly aswell just enough to expose all those other bud sights underneath the main cola's. I have also trimmed a few of the leaves off the freak to get maximum light on the venom so im hoping she will yeild nicely. I just hope this freak doesnt stretch much more. Ive had to support the stem of it also as it was leaning to one side a little and pulling the basket out of the hole in the bucket :)

Im tempted while i have my break from growing to start work on a or look into making a 1 container system to house 4 plants. It would make my life so much easier regarding res changes as its a right ball ache now even with the pump its still hard to totally empty the buckets and there hard to get to etc, i was thinking maybe a shelf with 4 holes fixed in the cabs then the res which could slide in and out underneath? Im not sure.

Id also be tempted to go Organic aswell to be fair but i would have to look into what i would lose yeild wise etc before making the commitment, i def like the idea of it though and i figure seeing as i have a seperate veg cab i could still veg the ladies pretty big in the 10 weeks or so that the others are flowering.

Hi dude, I am thinking I may increase my Res. size for my next grow... What size/ L are you DWC tubs ?? and how tall do they stand ?? - STELTHY :leaf:

There 27 ltrs total mate and stand approx 15" tall. I was looking out for the guy on ebay who i got them off but he doesnt seem to be on there anymore:( Seeing as how you are the Modmeister:) have you got any ideas? The baskets as they stand are to big, to have the level just below the basket means the buckets are only half full:(

I have decided to use normal buckets with lids, I am going to cut in a hole for a small Net-Pot and use either a 20/25L buckets and expect I can fill them to approx 18/23L depending on which size buckets I settle for :) space is my thing to overcome.. I really like the look of the beer brewing buckets..they are pretty tall and are available in a range of sizes up to approx 30L but again the buckets dimensions will be the deciding factor - STELTHY :leaf:

Have you had any idea on how i can mod my bucket lids mate? I wish that guy was still on ebay i could have got them off him. Ive had a look on google and cant find any like mine:( I think id go for the 140cm pot, its still big enough to give alot of support but not so big it takes up half the bucket lol.

I forgot to say mate im gonna leave adding the pk this time until they have stopped stretching, i think i added it way to early last time. Saying that though the old Canna guide said to add it as soon as pistals appeared where as the new one says when buds start to fatten after stretch!

I think im sold on these Dutch Pro nutes for future grows, much more simple to use and from what you have seen awsome to boot!
