They’re small though, so no probs letting them dry out a little. Agreed that size I’d be feeding once maybe twice very sparingly around the stem and not totally soaking the coco medium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to have a closer look tomorrow as I did bring those bloody herb plants.in ffs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUFUS HOUND Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 started feeding once a day 20ml - just to give a little feed while allowing the coco to dry out a little.they seem a bit perkier today EC = 1000 (1ml A + 1ml B + 2ml seaweed extract) pH = 6.0 spraying with epsom solution as EC to high to add to feed. oh and I washed off the epsom after taking photo - honest gov 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photo from last night and a few of my DIY duct heater. Its made with a piece of 100mm diameter pvc pipe with a 100w PTC heater inside and a pc fan blowing the air through, warming it. Currently got it set up inside tent as an internal heate,r so it takes the warmish air from top of tent, warms it futher and blows it out towards the bottom of the tent . That's a genius idea geez, might have to steal it if I'm honest . Just make sure the air coming not isn't too hot, destroyed a load of chilli plants in about 20 seconds with a fan heater once .

RUFUS HOUND Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 @MindSoup the ptc heater never gets red hot, it remains at a constant temperature (about 80'C), when the fan is on, the air temp is only mid 30'C - just enough for my 2x2 veg tent but ive got no extraction on yet I might set up some driveway blocks in "russian stove" type tunnel to retain some of the heat at lights off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done heavy epsom mistings like that, with great results, but the salt deposits on the leaves were always much larger and less spiter mitey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
