Hey mate,

Wish I had space for a poly tunnel, would be great and nice and stealthy ph34r.gif Wish I has some Passion #1 too, they're seem quite hard to get hold of online without spending £££s.

I'm a newbie myself so most of this is second hand info but comes from a wealth of UK420ers experience. General consensus seems to be don't give your plants any food until they look like they're starting to need it, e.g. lower leaves going pale or yellow, but this probably won't be for a while if you're plants are fairly new. Have a look at OT1's advice here for some good feeding tips. Are they in the soil or in pots? If they're in the soil have you dug in any fertiliser, if they're in pots what compost are you using, it's handy if you can put this info on your profile.

From what I've read you should be able to flower the Passion #1 fine naturally unless you're right up north. If you force them they will finish earlier but with lower yield, however this will minimise the risk of any budrot. Hopefully someone with some Passion #1 experience will be along soon.

Good luck with the grow wink.gif

Edited because I'm an eejiit

Read OT1's feed plan.
do you think it will still be ok for seedlings as it says its for cuttings?

Hey mate, BioBizz chart is for cuttings, OT1's advice is for seedlings. It should be fine, however try and use your own judement and respond to the needs of your plants. Other factors like the compost you use will determine when you need to feed and ow much.

Cheers Sloanation, it's very tempting but thinking about it I probably have enough on the go with the Early Girls and autos.

Glad to hear things are getting going Bart, hoping your plants have a successful summer ahead of them.

The bonus of a tunnel is you don't have to worry as much about the weather. Should get a nice crop no matter what biggrin.gif
