If you have to venture downstairs mid-film to take a piss, you might as well roll a reef while you're down there, burning one be damned :D

picture time!





there you have em :) couple of things.

1. someone tell me now, just why someone decided that growing from small pots and then transfering into larger pots was a good idea. messy, damages the roots, and a total PITA that i really don't need. from last grow, i can see that there is no reason not to go straight into large pots.

2. why do they all seem to be dying! every plant is showing signs of failure. my fem'd white widow seed is a full on mutant, she's the one top middle, her leaves are alll absolutely fucked, not one is leaf shaped or the right way up etc. all 4 of the larger ones are really pale green, yellowing, and flimsy and droopy 24/7. i'm gonna up their feed, but i'm not happy with em!

Right here goes, i'm getting a little nervous with the cold weather coming in fast to the uk.
I have a short rider autoflower female in my greenhouse which is bubble wrapped and shes doin well at the moment, about a week since flowering has started to show.

The temp when i got into the car this morning was 4c, i read sumwhere that below that the plant goes into shock an could die.
If i move her into the house will this shock the plant too much an kill her off???? Will there be enough natural light comin through the windows tohelp her flower??
I'd rather try sumthing an she not make it than just leave her there to die.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

You could put a heater in your greenhouse plenty of people that arn't growing weed do it for lesser plants in winter..

Hey ppl

New UK grower here :peace:

Too much crap bud around here and sick of getting ripped off so thought I'd do my own. The last chap I bought from put it in the fridge to make it weigh more! Ain't putting up with dirty tricks like that anymore.

what works well and whats not so good or no good.
thanks for you opinions everyone.

i went to a bnq megalopolis, and they had sweet fuck all in terms of choice for soil. didn't have what i wanted at all.

a friend who's been in green for the alst 20 years or so reccomended John Illes no.2 mix. along with perlite and 5mm sand, in like a 3:2:1 ratio. i used this and it seemed to give pretty good results. was my first grow so i can't comment on just how effective it is, but certainly ran into no drainage bug problems blah blah and the plants seemed to like it. i had to goto a propper garden center to find what i was after. even the flower pot range at bnq is pretty limited, and very expensive. i just shelled out £3 a go for run of the mill plastic runoff tray things...
