Dinafem-Mark Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Looks good mate, nice green sheen to them....will have to get some of the PM root stuff...is there a hydro version? You could try amino root by metrop that's for soil,coco or dro(hydroponics) there are a few great hydro root stims out there but netrops the best I've come across All the best D-M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Default Attribute Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Ok well we are still rolling along nicely here, been in their final pots for 7 days now. I decided to add a net to train them under a bit, been wanting to try a scrog type grow for ages but could never find a suitable net, I got this one from secret jardin, the holes are a bit big imo but it is working good so far. Was mainly for support rather than a proper scrog attempt, sick of all the branches flopping over near the end really makes everything harder. I had to get rid of one of the dinachems tho so down to the best looking one now, I had to go from 7 plants to 5. The other was more spindly with quite large node distances so I had to make the decision, had to kill a blues girl as well Really hard to get a pic when they are under the net but the dinachem is the one right in the middle, surrounded by blues and smellyberry. Looking a bit messy I had just been tucking a few branches under the net. Switching to 12/12 on friday, might get another one of those nets for the stretch they are only £5 for the 90x90 size. Take care everyone, thanks for reading. Edited August 20, 2014 by StevieRays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Default Attribute Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 thanks @@Dinafem-Mark Should see some bud soon I prefer taking pics in flower than in veg, most plants in veg look similar. I forgot to say, I am flowering in 7.5l round pots. I will be giving a second dose of plant magic catalyst next feed and then after that it will just be grow and bloom only.

Have you tried the air-pots? I was growing in 11l pots when I did my 4 pot Wilma system then reduced to 6.5l air-pots with better results. Less medium, faster growth and a slightly bigger yeild I agree girls in bloom do look better than girls in veg Will look out for some flower updates All the best D-M.

Guest Default Attribute Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Hi Mark, I have not tried the air pots, I always thought they looked like a gimmick so I gave them a swerve but I may as well try them if you say they improved yield. I need to get in to trim a bit under the canopy today so I will get a quick update then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to get in to trim a bit under the canopy today so I will get a quick update then. No lie my friend the air-pots let me reduce my medium by 50%, gave me increased veg growth and a better yeild. I think they perform very well. I have not tried the fabric/smart pots yet but I love the air-pots. If anyone is using a wilma recirculating dripper syatem you can take of your normal 11l square pots and the 6.5l air pots fit perfectly. Will look forward to the update All the best D-M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Default Attribute Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Not really much to show but here is a couple pics, Day 4 flower Dinachem right in the middle, the screen has filled out quite a bit, it worked out well but I didn't lollipop them enough and it is now impossible to get to the back ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any truth to that? Yeah it can be a sign of too much nitrogen, these have been pushed a little far at 1.5ml of grow, there is some slight clawing on some of the leaves I am giving them plain water for the next couple feeds. I think it is the bio silicon that makes them easier to overfeed, it increases the nutrient uptake I think so gotta be more careful with the feed.

Dosti Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Sorry Stevie, hope you don't take it as a diss on your grow mate, I wasn't knocking it; just curious about plant colour and feed strength. They look very healthy as everyone has pointed out, carryon as you were squire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
