I just ordered a 10t version 3.0 press from rosinpress.co.za Lead time 3-4 weeks but i got a R1000 discount due to the wait so a great deal. The owner Sean communicated swiftly and answered all my questions and also gave me some insight. Cant wait to press my own rosin. He will soon have his own pre presses which I'm also very interested in. Deal expires Sunday you can pay 50% deposit now and the rest when your press is ready just drop him a mail.

Hi guys, I have used F1 a couple of time and mainly with Green House Powder feeding and done RDWC with GHE also, for me these two nutrient line are simular, when I did run into problems with F1 it was mostly because I didn't bump the tap water to 0,2-3 EC with Calsium Nitrate from Horti mix, when I had a def/tox problem due to not bumping I flushed with 1EC (mostly problem was in flower) and PH 5,7, like said above I'll put in 1-2 liters and wait so all the coco in the pot gets wet to dissolve any concentrated nutes and then flush again with 3liters, then il flush again the next day and then skip a day and then again. Mostly I didn't know what was wrong but that fixed the problem, after that I can feed 1,8-2 EC from the week 4 and il even go to 2,5 but the main thing was at that high EC is to keep medium moist, any drying out will solidify the nutes and the the pH in medium gets to high ( hope my words make sense). When's that fixed the problem il play with PH between 5,7-5,9. Also I first mix nutes properly in bucket then check and adjust PH then wait and check PH again after 30, I check ph again before next feeding because it tends to differ the next time abit due to temps variables in the grow space, I keep my bucket in grow space, to cold outside tent and don't think plants like the cold water when the medium is grow temps. Hope my experience helps a bit, so we learn together. Sent from my F5321 using Tapatalk

Hi, Thanks for the tag, @SkunkPharm Finishing up backlog on small lights and receiving the rest of our heatsink order from January, next week finally, so am expecting to have the grow bar range back up soon, and new high efficiency veg range after that. If in big rush for a small light, Looking at the links above, the one website is just random chinese crap. I would advise against that. The modugrow one looks pretty sweet. I can't tell what the difference is between their 90W lights, but the specs are solid. It's 1/3 of a standard 240W Quantum board light, for R2k. The QB-75 will be back next week, and is going to be R1250 going forward. Compared to the 90W Modugrow, the QB-75 is about 10% less efficient, and 15W less, but also costs R800 less. So it's a slightly different value proposition.

Very sexy! He just got another order

I wouldn't blame the cold too much in this regard. If 15C is your low end then I rate you're ok. I am currently getting as low as 13C and going ok Although temp fluctuation between day and night could be a problem if not in flower, but even then I've never seen problem unless you get below 10C. Them weeds is resilient.

Day 86 at the first spot of amber they got the chop. One of them threw nanners 2 weeks ago so chopped it early had a few joints and this is not couch lock weed.

First indoor harvest, pineapple glue auto ready for drying

I have to write the guys a recommendation. Every order is here the next day. www.marijuanaseeds.co.za Additional, they have Snow White Feminized as freebees.. and i only do Autos.. so wrote them, if they could exchange the free fem seeds with auto seeds and got Blueberry Kush Autos instead. from my side.. and if somebody is looking for something to grow next season.. you might want to give the Nirvana Candy Kush fem a go.. flavor and taste is very very good. But with the Post Office down and no parcels moving.. very fast and secure site to shop seeds.. they also accept Bitcoin () still wait for my Gelato and Pineapple seeds from fastbuds.. is in SA for 20 days now.. but not scanned into the system yet. I think will take a few more weeks till I see those seeds hehehe

I think I give those a go.. the numbers they put are hard to believe https://de.aliexpress.com/item/4000214530976.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.62c35a088UVHxM&algo_pvid=48d3ac56-f090-46a2-9c1a-0b8f966c99d5&algo_expid=48d3ac56-f090-46a2-9c1a-0b8f966c99d5-10&btsid=0ab6fa8115907396166023780e8ff5&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_,searchweb201603_ wups.. is a german link.. and I have troubles finding the product in english description. My main issue is this one: Power: 120 Watt Voltage: 48V LED: 248 pcs Samsung lm301h led + 36pcs 660nm + 4pcs UV + 4pcs IR Flower Footprint: 4.5 'X4.5 "oder 5'X5 'DECK (2 kits) That would be 240 Watt for a 4.5x4.5..

Hey All, I'm new to the forum and wanted to introduce myself and hopefully share my experience with you all, and would like to go on your adventures with you too. This is my second proper go at this, learning every day and always open to advise or critique. Nice to meet everyone and be here, Have a dank day y'all

Picture of the light from below if anyone is interested, mixed 3x 4K and 3x 3K panels and then 4x 3K with Far Reds on ends.

Welcome and enjoy bud..

I'll take your word about the Horticulture bit... I know that they are practically the same effeciency... Just the h is more efficient by like 2% or something. They are liked over the b range, but only because they are newer and more efficient and cost the same. I'd get a psu that can run all 4 boards at the same time... Meanwell have a 480w driver that will do the trick... Otherwise 2 240w drivers will also work... I would avoid getting a psu per panel for simplicity HLG-240H-48AB or similar HLG-480H-48AB or similar or is it the 52A you need... @PsyCLownwill know

@Dr. Green @Prom Thanks for the support guys, I really appreciate it.

And as suggested in the thread, if your floor is cold then raise them abit Sent from my F5321 using Tapatalk

@GGG they don't enjoy having cold, soggy feet. Raising the temp of the water is a very good suggestion.

Cool, with your phed water, first water so that the whole meduim is wet, but no runnoff. Let it sit for a few min for the water you added to stabilize in the meduim. Then flush until you have enough runoff to test the runnoff pH and ppm. Then depending on those results you can see if this is just a plain water feed, or if you need to complete the flush. But from what we can see, the completion of the flush is necessary. The test is just for your info

He recommended the 10t as i will be pressing flower and popcorn in 20g batches. You can use the 10t to press big batches of hash too. The 20t is too much pressure for hash, kief and sift

10t.. most likely.. taking it with a friend. Was looking for one and that price looks rather killer for the quality of the build. So Thanks a lot for posting!!

If it popped and stopped growing.. dud.. if never popped.. dead seed ^^ If you have waited only around 2 days, give it a few more, if you have nothing after 5, dead. Never had anything coming after 5 days wet. When you glass the seed.. i do not recommend to let it soak for longer as 12-15 hours. I prefer to plate none popped seeds after that time, keep em moist instead of having a swim. So not that you did anything wrong.. seed might just be to old, lethal genetics or had bad storage conditions.

And when I look at your feeding amount, can't it be that the amount of Phosphor you add, lock out the iron? Your very bright yellow center looks direction iron deficiency..

Yeah, coco and hydro are the same in that sense. The coco is simply a medium in which the water / nute mixture is held. Coco does not contain any nutrients at all, unlike with soil. @TheUltimateNoob so @CreX and I were talking and you're using Freedom Farms Formula 1, which isn't pure coco / perlite. It contains some amendments, if you're feeding according to the coco / hydro guide on the bottle this may be causing issues as the amendments are also providing nutes. Ingredients: Coco Coir, Worm Castings, Perlite (30%), Volcanic Rock Dust, Bone meal, Gypsum, Fermented probiotic bran. That is the Formula 1 mix. So I'd certainly lower the nutes you're giving, perhaps even follow the soil chart for the GHE nutes instead - I have not looked at what those dosages are like though.

Managed two clone 2 miniature pineapple glue auto just for fun, was lolly poping the big plant, the stems were hard so I plugged the 2 into a small pot been going strong for over 1 month, think the 1 is done and the other is halfway lol

Entry #3 Had to get in the special forces for help me train this two headed monster.

We have a new moderator onboard! Welcome aboard @Ill_Evan thanks for helping out

Beside watching plants grow, I enjoy getting my hands greasy. And when I think into it.. a car is a bit like a plant.. can excite you to the max and frustrate you to the bone Any others in here with a need for speed?

Thank you kindly CreX, I'm running 640w of @growopz boards of LED, which I bought as 2 lights and made them into one, but are only pushing @ 600w for efficiency and longevity. These are all GSC, and I have so many clones in front that would need to be rehome soon. Also lost my job end of last year and it's not been easy at all. Doing my best to survive one could say.

Nice yo!! What tech have you got and what strains are happening? Welcome and buckle in man

Lol the h purely has the spec sheet written for horticulture. No difference in the LED spec or price.

The guys here have given you great advice, some of the best actually and for someone new to get that type of advice so early, is priceless. Those lights you show at the end are different, but a picture is nothing without specifics. Hope you take their advice and look forward to your grows you going post here. Peace.

That helps... but what I have found is that when you press to much flower material at once it acts as a sponge and you loose.. but that is what I found... Different strokes for different folkes.. At the end it all tastes, feels and smells the same..... lekkka...

Hi all, before I start, I'm new to the forum and wanted to introduce myself, and very glad to be here among like minded people. I'm currently on my second grow and can vouch for @growopz products, not only that but his knowledge on the field and build quality are second to none, which is my personal opinion and experience with them. Look forward to sharing in the adventure with you all, and growing with you all in every way. StickyD420

Thanks everyone! You guys are awesome. The lights are due to come on in just over 3 hours so I'll wait for then, then get the flushing... Lol. I'll try raising the pots a slight bit off the floor to see if it makes a difference, and I'll test the runoff later as well. Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk

I haven't seen this site before are they new?

Depends on your budget, but in comparison to what you have at the moment anything will do. You could use the current light to prevent flowering and let sunlight do the heavy lifting.

I have forgotten seeds in water for 2~3 days. They grow 2cm long tap roots. Then just planted them. But would not recomend it. It is a bit cold atm to germinate seeds so it might take longer than usual now than in somer.

If the lowest air temp is 20 c then the roots will be a couple of degrees lower than the air. That is on the borderline for lockout issues. I have had similar looking woes, in the past and was able to overcome them with an oil radiator connected to a timer. I would monitor the temp on the floor of your tent. Add a heater if needed. Your nutes and coco mix are top quality premium brands, so I don't think that is your problem.

No I don't use one... I don't think I see anything less than 15°C air temp inside the tent, max gets to around 28 with humidity between 50-70%... Not sure about the roots, will have to stick a thermometer in the soil for a while Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk

I can't comment on the solution, coco is out of my realm but those plants do definitely look Manganese deficient. The droopiness might not be related though, just to keep in mind. Might even be a lockout if you're experiencing deficiencies close to feeding. If I were experiencing this I'd probably opt for a flush and a fresh low dose feed and work my way up in ppm. I'd also just stick to ph of 5.8 when experiencing a problem rather than making fluctuations while the plant is unhappy. Just my but I'm sure a coco guru will give a better definitive answer.

Nice one @Ill_Evan ! Wielding that banhammer alongside the Captn and @PsyCLown ! Respect bros, keeping 420SA looking noice!

Well done and welcome @Ill_Evan Happy to have you on the team!

My first grow , outdoor this year

Yo @1000Hills Nursery looking fire man, setting the bar nice and high for next season bro You are going to rock the SA grow scene dude This PineappleSkunk has very nice budstructure man, nice colour as well, I assume she is tasty and a good high, what is in the nose on this? Looks Terpy Epicness Awe now we talking! That's a decent number of males to choose from. Have u got a solid idea what kind of Male you are going for, or perhaps a few males? Super stoked man, the males look legit, some beefy okes in there and some proper phat leaf bras as well, dig it my bruu. Blessings and buds for u and the KZN crew that side!
