Thanks Biggs. To be honest, there's hardly any smell really. But I'm comparing this to my last grow which was AK 47 and Big Bud, and they absolutely stunk the house out to the point where I had migraines. When I turn the fans off, she has a mild sweet smell to her, but other than that, odour...
I remember one grow where my crop became infested with spidermites. They was about a week into flower, and around 40% of the leaves where covered in yellow spots where the mites had been sucking the life out of them. On closer inspection at the bottom of the leaves, just at the node sections...
To me this seems so wrong. It's almost like butchering your plant to cut off green fan leaves from the top.
I've just had a heated debate about this with my partner I grow with. He has started taking top healthy fan leaves off, thinking that it would help light get to lower bud sites and help...
That's some serious dope cultivation where I come from!
First thing I would do is find a good electrician I could trust.
What sort of grow system was you thinking of?
Good luck!
Thanks for pointing this out Samcro. I've been thinking the same actually. Every time I go check on things, I always nearly stick another 600W up there, but then leave it when I think of the safety side of things. But I think I needed to hear it from someone else before I did something about it...
Thanks JS. I wouldn't grow in any other medium after using Canna Coco. I think it holds just the right amount of water for weed to grow in. I've heard many growers say that its very difficult, if not impossible to over water in coco, and the plants seem to take everything you give them.
I'll...
10 days from switch. Had to lift the lights, as they are really starting to gain some height now, and fill out a lot. I've started to add 0.5ml of Rhizotonic per litre of nutrient. Does anyone recommend any other nutes to add at this point, or maybe when they are in full flower?
They are...
I thought you meant the EZ Cloner when I first read it, but it said ex. You shouldn't have any problems if you keep the RH at 50 and have good air circulation, with fresh air coming in and old air being pulled out. If the building suffers from damp/mould problems itself then your bud will...
If your clones are in a clone machine, then it doesn't matter what the humidity is in the room. Clones need a very high humidity, which it should be in your cloner anyway.
My humidity is between 60 - 70 at the minute for 26 plants, and they are in top condition. I switched them to 12/12 a week ago, so in the next few days I will aim to get the humidity down to 40 - 50 to prevent bud rot.
Can't comment from experience, as only ever used 600W. But I have been advised from experienced growers in the past to stick with 600W, as 1000W have no real benefits, but obviously more expensive.
I've seen other designs on the forum, where a loop has been used instead of 2 stop ends like I have used. I thought that the pump would be powerful enough to use on this system, but obviously not. I like the idea of a second pump! I suppose, they would have to be 2 pumps exactly the same though...
