Hi all Thought I would start off courteously and introduce myself. Been growing outdoors for a number of years, and at risk of sounding vain, I feel I have pretty much reached my full potential given the natural constraints inherent to an outdoor grow. My outdoor grows are organic, with either Freedom Farms or Orgasoilux along with mostly the Biobizz nutrient range. I like to use the odd dose of Nitrosol, molasses and Epsom salt too. Used the Freedom Farms Antifragile soil as test this year and thus far I am quite impressed (only used it as a third of the medium in each pot). Having to wait from May to November each year for summer to come around has forced my hand in setting up an indoor grow. Currently on my first run, plants at 3 weeks and so far so good. Indoor I am going for coco and salt based nutrients, and will have to pick some brains here to assist with the unknown. Anyway, that's enough about me for now. Looking forward to this journey of mastering the indoor side of things. Hopefully I can give back or at least pay forward the knowledge obtained here. Apologies for the "low" resolution pictures. My photography skills have never been much to write home about. Respect

A vlog update of the greenhouse. Very happy with the timing on the seed plant, but should of not put clones or autos out until February.

Week 3 of flower. The male parts on the Chimpancheese is developing slowly. Was hoping for faster development. The Kush is by far the best plant in this batch. The cheese and the animal cookies and the Tangie is a close second.

What I can tell from reading all the info is that you should not exceed 4 bar in pressure. If you use a pump more that 4 bar you need to connect a pressure regulator from the line to the dripped. I may be wrong. Will tel you after I test them this afternoon.

I have 2 50w LED flood lights and a single 50w Blurple light. When I put my phone underneath it the light source, the sensor kind of gives the expected color temps. On the left the LED flood light and on the right the Blurple 50watt Cob LED. And for interest sake the PPFD app gives the below at about 30cm from the light source. (Flood lights) . I have a cheap 120watt QB which I never ended up using. It was meant to light my work space but didnt like the fact that they get so hot. It has a bunch of 4014 SMD leds on it, and they measure just over 4000K. Will 4000K work for Veg and flowering ?

https://growopz.com/products/prototype-sale-85w-bridgelux-vero29-2700k-90-cri-fixture my advice. Get a decent light see link. With this light you will be able to grow at least one solid plant. And it will pay itself back after the first grow.

Dankie!

Got it as a freebie from Bud Buddies, their in house brand. BCN Critical XXL.. to be honest not impressed at all. Bud structure very leafy and buds generally fluffy. Don't think the exceptional heat we had over the last two months in the Cape helped her, but in my opinion inferior genetics/pheno compared to the Fast Buds auto that grew quite nicely. Should have harvested her a while ago but could not be bothered. She will most likely get the chop this week and go into the extracts bin. She might just serve a purpose for some sleep meds.

Haha.. eventually it will probably end up there

Nice healthy plants. What strain is the autoflower?

The below is my first sucessfull-ish grow. The below 2 plants started at the same time and the one on the right chilling under the Bluple light which also gets a good amount of LED flood light seems to be flowering much denser than the one that only gets light from the LED flood lights. Which makes me think 4000k is ok for veging but once you get to flowering things go south.

Bloody mooi

Lekker plants bro! What strains do you have going there?

Welkom you should try indoor Organics. It’s for the lazy grower

Thanks.. must be honest, the majority of the 'construction' was done by the brother in law.. he owed me a favour or two. My hands are a bit round when it comes carpentry and screws... proud part will come if I manage to eventually pull something top shelf out of there

Thanks Cupboard is for early veg and clones. Maybe a mother or two if I find something worth keeping. Two Growopz 75w fixtures in there.. big saving on the Eskom and much less waste compared to having 600w HID on them.

I hooked up 4 drippers and they do about 100ml every minute.

Looking good, pitty about the budrot. Aphids are terrible. Although your mites should keep pests under control.

@Slartibarfast So how does the TV look on the wall?

Welcome! And thanks for sharing! That’s something to be proud of man love it!

Entry still open. Can enter here https://thehighco.co.za/cape-town-cannabis-cup-application/

Interesting point on rate of degregation on organic outdoor vs indoor cultivated.

I would suggest planting this plant in a bigger pot. Plants deal with the weather better if they have more Root space.

Thanks so much. I managed to find a friend of my brother's that's willing to help. If he flakes I might reach out to you. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

So at this rate I might even flip next week Friday, I've topped the biggest bunch of clones to keep them low for now and allow the others to get some height. But for the most part they are all really big, seems to be this pheno is indica dominant so that might prevent the ridiculous stretch associated with in-house. Also had issues with canna nutrients, bioleaf not being buffered caused some issues and was not arsed to do calmag, so I opted just to complete my GHE nutrients and see how far I get with what's left. I'll be ordering two more net's next week also after having a chat with @PsyCLownI am going to look at getting the netbow feeding rings as well and do drip irrigation during the flower run.

Ahhh this is a good plan forward. Less entry per gram and more growers. I see you are accepting entries... should one just enter and request that the strain be acceptable for your selection, have the strains been listed yet, I may have missed this?

i made some vape juice yesterday i used nfused with some dab and it is awesome
