Uk Grower 10 Big Buddha Cheese And A Couple Of Random Seeds :) With Pics
- Thread starter GHOSTDOG SA
- Start date
Whatever I do this time it will be a bit longer because its from seed, but next time I'll have cuttings to work with so should take a couple or three weeks off the overall time. I see you guys have been talking about a ppm meter, do you need them on soil grows as well or just hydro?
Thanks.
Thanks.

In beginning I used to use hard water and noticed one day the plants were happy and some days looking kinda sick. Since I started using OR water I noticed more consistency in plants health. In California specially where I live the hard water is full of shit LIKE chlorine, EXCESSIVE calcium and other toxic shits. The hard water in my area is measured between 200-230 ppm depended on the day.

That's a great option if someone is short of cash! but if your growing several plants it gets expensive. In my area RO waters costs $1.00 for a gallon. OR water system is about $150-200 in long run u save tons of money.

Seeds take longer than clones to grow but the end product when it's all done with it and it's time to smoke try side by side comparison between growing from seed vs clone there is huge difference in the quality of the smoke. I have to say speedy grows can never measure up to slow grows. PPM AND PH and also temperature METERS are must regardless if you are growing in soil or soil-less.

Great question! ppm is the measurement of the nutes strength. Make sense?
Yes it makes perfect sense, Thankyou. Is the ppm the same as the EC, because I can find EC meters but not ppm.

Day 9 of flowering made a few alterations to the ventilation in my grow room shorter extraction run and shorter intake run(increased noise tho) and also closed off all 4 passive vents this is to try and increase day time lights off temps i also turned the fans off at lights out this morning and it worked increasing temp from 12.2c to 15.4c

Day 10 of flowering noticed on a couple of my girls that the leaves are curling over a bit(excuse the shit pics) decided to lower my nute ppm to 500 from about 750ppm and I'll see if anything happens in a few days I'm using the same nutes as before only this time went in full strength on the hesi coco bloom this was only to get the ppm's up 700 and half strength hammer head pk any advice what to try would be helpful
