true Posted April 4, 2014 Author Share Posted April 4, 2014 Hello Everyone - Update Day 4: I have germinated my 8 Dutch Passion AutoXtreme seeds using the paper towel method in a sealed plastic container. In this case a sandwich box I soaked some super size Jiffy Peat Pellets with a tiny fraction of House and Garden Root Excelurator (there spelling not mine). 4 seeds popped in 24 hours, 2 after 48 hours and the last 2 seeds took 72 hours. They have now been gently pushed into my Jiffy's and relaxing in my propagator. Ive been giving my room a dry run with all the lights and fans on. Temperatures have been nice and steady at 26c. Ive got the fans on manual at the moment on the lowest setting and they are both virtually silent. I deliberately over specced the fans and filter in the hope they can run at much lower speeds. So far Im chuffed to bits Look at the size of this monster filter! I had to build a platform out of wooden pallets to get the fan and filter up to the ceiling Here's a group shot with some of my kit Im using Over n out for now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DutchPassionTony Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I am looking forward to seeing this, what a dream set up. Is that the Isomax acoustic fan? If so I would like to hear a bit more about it One of our customers grew some stunning AutoMazar also using 30 litre pots (coco in his case), here's a link to the grow if anyone is interested. Auto's will indeed take the available root space, and under 20 hours (or thereabouts) of daily light they grow with real vigour http://www.dutch-passion.nl/en/news-and-development/another-epic-dutch-passion-automazar-grow/ good luck mon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BST Hi BST, you got it mate this is an exercise in going a bit over the top I just want to see if hobby growers like us can get anywhere near some of the huge yields we read about. He who dares.. and all that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
true Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) Look at what Ledbud got out of a 30l pot, its insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd be failing in my duty if I did not try to emulate this guy Tony the Iso Max fan is a real beauty, again Ive gone a bit over board on the spec but with the idea the fan can run nice and gently, nice and quietly. So far so good Have a good weekend everyone, Im off the cafe now for a fry up Edited April 5, 2014 by Owderb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

true Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Hi all A little update I germinated 8 seeds in paper towel and a plastic sandwich box. All 8 popped within a few days but one of the seeds never came through the peat pellet after transplanting. Another came through but only had one leaf and looked a bit poorly. I quickly germinated another couple of seeds and they are doing fine but running a week behind the others. Airpots make the perfect stand! The plant on the left will get pulled I think, this was the sickly runt with one leaf. The other 6 Dutch Passion AutoXtreme's are romping along and roots have poured out of the peat pellets. Now these are potted up and under the ePapillon lights turned down to 600w. Ive never done a soil grow before, please keep in mind Ive not grown anything for years. Man alive I was fooked after making up the 30l airpots!! Any more of this and I will need a holiday I potted up with a sprinkle of Plant Magic granules and gave a nice watering in with a smidge of root stimulant from House and Garden. Lastly they had a little covering of vermiculite to finish off. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
