In short, concentrates can be mixed but it must be done with caution and tested on samples first. Which I think is sensible advice to those of us who wish to look further into simplifying spray regimes.

I thought this paragraph from happyharvest was also worth adding: Compatibility BioGrow Bioneem is compatible with most fungicides, insecticides and fertilisers. Physical compatibility should first be checked by using the current blends of products in a small test jar. Growers should then test tank mix combos for phytotoxicity on a sample of the plant or crops prior to use. Do not mix with oxidising agents such as bleach or hydrogen peroxide. Avoid mixing with strong acids and bases as they will disrupt the product. For max effectiveness use spray solutions within a few hours of mixing. Do not store diluted solution for later use. Neem is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Shake well before use. Bioneem does not have an instant knockdown effect taking 3-7 days for death to occur. Due to the anti feedent effect, damage is reduced almost immediately. Apply in early to mid-morning or late afternoon. Do not apply in temperatures above 30°C. Active Ingredient By mass Azadirachtin 1.5g/ℓ Reg. no. L6958 Act 36 of 1947 Bioneem is an emulsifiable concentrate.

I was not trying to change your mind on your protocols it was not directed at you it was a continuation of the thread. I thought it was worth putting a link in so other people with the same question can get some opinions from the makers of the actual products and add that to the pool of information they use to make their own informed decisions. If you feel they are spreading any kind of disinformation or have an issue with their content I encourage you to contact them directly and set them straight.

Hello everyone, My space is mostly sorted now just the extraction fan and ducting to put in and a bit of wiring. I'm hoping this diary I can ask me some questions and get me some answers.... even if it's 3 different answers from 3 different people It's been a while since I grew indoors and I've never grown under led. I've tried not to get too caught up in the deep dive and get this thing sorted before putting plants in but some clones became available so at the minute the grow doors are open and a fan is circulating air. I have a dehumidifier that is keeping the RH acceptable. Temp not an issue yet. I still have a lot of finishing up to do but they're in veg so I got a bit of time. Herewith the details! Space: 1m x 1.7m x 2.2m high Extraction: 6" with speed controller Passive intakes - 3 x 6" Temp: oil heater hooked up to a TH16 Light: 550w bar light with the 561 diodes (75cm X 115cm ). It has a sonoff timer and a power supply that can be dimmed with a screwdriver. Currently on full whack and 130cm from the plant tops as I just put the clones in there and I didn't want to freak them out. Strains: Blueberry Hashplant / Bruce Banner / Mandarin Mints / Pineapple Express / Super Cheese / Gorilla Glue I was only going to do two strains, a head and a body stone, but got a bit carried away and got 6 different strains in the end. Planned to grow 4 plants but got an extra two in case I cocked something up. It's been known to happen. I also didn't match the growing properties because I didn't know the details for each strain but I did recognise a few names and know I've got some tall ones in there so this could get interesting. They're still in 1L pots, was going to pot into 20L final containers today / tomorrow IPM so far: Yesterday: Neem spray (1ml / litre) Tomorrow: Margaret Roberts Worm (1 leaf a caterpillar had munched on. No sign of the caterpillar. Friday: Coppersoap if I can remember to buy it Nutes: Biogrow / Biobloom / Root Juice Microbes: Biocult Mycorrhizae at transplant Soil: FF, the green bag Water: So far rain water with ph up. Going forward either rain water or tap water left for a day and ph down. OK I think that's all except I should probably put a pic up. Let me do that now... My first questions: 1 - Does everybody put into the final container or do you pot up again? I was going to go to 4L containers and then into the 20L grow bags but now I'm thinking I ight put them straight into final container so the can get over transplant, then top them. 2 - Is 20L too big? I have 15L soil in each container at the moment resting. 3 - I had planned 4 plants. Is 6 doable in this space if all the clones survive my heavy hands? Thanks everyone, looking forward to this. wing

yea like I said here

I am not looking to mix what I spray, the way I do things has been working for me. glad you found some info on biogrow stuff. you gona be using only Biogrow products? they say you can mix their products, that doesn't mean you can mix all spray stuff all willy nilly. infact, if they say you can mix their neem with their copper soap, that doesn't mean you can mix any branded neem with any branded copper soap. they probably make their line of products so that they're compatible and synchronizable. same like with feeding, if you use BioBizz products you try to stick with BioBizz as there's a schedule. if you wana bring in a different brand of anything you have to go to the charts/schedules and check what's what so you can compensate for the new product and either give less or more of either thing.

Start of week 6 and we looking frosty! Things are looking good, I've pushed the ladies a bit from week 4-6 increasing my E.C to 1.9 they responded well, I will now turn it abit down over the next 2 weeks before harvest. They looking promising hoping to swell a bit the last few weeks. 1st image is Sleez 2nd Image is Beach wedding she's been the most frosty. 3rd Image is Gelato 33 she's looking promising to swell up. 4th Image is Tart Pops x Slurricake

Some training and more topping in the veg tents. One OMG is throwing some thiccc leaves!

happy Sunday greens growing hommie growmies! We have a new home for the Dark phoenix and Chem D. These plants will be potted in 40l pots. The flowering plants are outside now. Have not been keeping track of flowering time, but looking back it’s actually already week 9, plants should be finishing up soon than they appear. However they look to atleast have another 2 weeks Lekke chilled Sunday ahead

Exactly 4 weeks and halfway through flower for the big tent ZxP. I've cleaned the bottom of the canopy a little bit every now and then and I think it's looking nice for the last half of flower. Good airflow and light penetration. Strong fade already but this has been an unfortunate result of the bad medium in the beginning. We will salvage as best as we can from this one. Smaller tent is coming along very well, probably one of the best veg periods I've had in a while just goes to show you can't overlook anything when playing with the big boys. I am waiting for a bit more stretch and then I will throw in a net to start the spread and initial canopy. Organic Tent™ has begun the first top and is recovering. The 4 OMG plants have some fat leaves and look good and green. There is a persistent issue with the Wedding Cake, even the mother continuously suffers from what looks like a calcium deficiency but no matter what the adjustment, the mother and clones will grow but they stay faded and almost look to have what seems to be like a mutation to the growth of the leaves. There is a very texture like feel to the leaves, like puffed up sorta. I spoke to a few growers at a get together and we think the cloning line has come to an end. She's tired, boss. So I am going to grow out these last two Wedding Cakes and then look for a replacement to the stable. The comparative growth to the fresh seeds growing alongside is enough justification to me.

Hello All, So pretty much a month has passed and 2/5 are still alive, albeit very small. They became severely stunted and showed little to no movement for about a week, maybe more. Not sure by what, my ineptness most likely. But, both are still going which is something, I guess: The Blueberry Kush was slumped over and nearly died one day, not sure what happened. I propped him up (and continue to do so), he's still alive and showing some new growth despite having a bit of a kink in his stem. One of his leaves, the one on the bottom left was also chowed by something. The Blue Mystic has generally looked very happy and healthy, but is also going slowly. Really hoping this one pulls through. So yeah, not much to celebrate unfortunately, but I'm going to care for and nurture them as best I can until they either deliver me some delicious buds or die. Whichever comes first! Any thoughts welcome! D

Apologies! The boy got sick so all life outside of him came to a bit of a standstill. He's better now, out of the hospital and life is back to normal... or whatever it is we call normal these days. Been a bit hectic and I'm unfortunately very slow when it comes to making stuff but I did manage to get some things done and the girls are still alive so... not ideal but not a total loss Missed some IPM with all the goings on. Also struggled a bit with light height: I dropped it to 100cm and burnt the tops then realized my house cleaner had moved the dehumidifier under the air intakes of the space so I think the damage was also from the dry air running over the tops of the plants. Lights at 115cm and I'm still getting some tiny leaf curls on the new growth. This is worrying. The light is at almost full height already! I was going to flip them to 12:12 this evening. I put the sticky traps in because gnats suddenly appeared in my outside garden pots. Found a few on the traps a few days later. Also what appears to be mite bites on some of the Glue leaves and that's the plant I was most interested in growing so that's annoying. They, and the rest of the garden pots outside, got a dose of efekto insect control last night. 2ml/L. Looks like mite damage on the glue leaves but I couldn't for the life of me find any mites. Will spray neudosan next I think: I see 10ml/L is the recommendation on this forum so that's what I'll go for, 20 minutes before lights out so I don't stack a mist on top of lights out, then fan up to half speed until RH gets to mid 60's.

Skipped a week so this is 2 weeks later, things are finishing up Frenchy got the chop, filled her spot with a small flowering Zweet Inzanity I had in flower outdoors. will finish her inside, she's only around week 3.5. will raise her with a bucket later today. Frosted Apricot - last of her Blueberry Hashplant - last of her Chernobyl - kept clones Super Cheese - kept clones French Macaron - during the chop, kept clones This Frenchy plant is a reeeeaal stinker. and this is an understatement! I feel like a fat kid waiting for cake, the excitement is too much!! It's one of those smells you want in your house as a weed smoker, but anyone who comes over that doesn't smoke weed will be offended by the smell. can't stretch enough how badly this plant smells like bad body odor. you would have to explain the reason for the smell to some. Bud shots comming soon! silly me, ended the reply without showing you guys the Zweet Inzanity! here she is

almost 2 weeks later, they got real bushy so I did a deep defoliation, I didn't like the way the net was working for now, so I raised it back up and put some clipties around the rim of the pot. they should be ready to flip in about 3 weeks.

#1 old school cheese autoflower from fastbuds reversal. Almost ready to drop pollen. #2 old school cheese auto, waiting to get pollinated.

Big tent is looking better in terms of health. Think I am past the worst of the recent issues. I'll start adding the next net layer after I start seeing a little preflower push. Only a couple of days into flower. I will probably do one more final small defoliation soon. In other news, there is finally some activity happening in the other tents. I have another four ZxP close to being transplanted into some more autopots on standby in the former veg tent. In the Organic Tent™ I have four OMG and two Wedding Cake just getting themselves established still. If my clones/seeds hadn't wrecked during the beginning of Winter I might have been actually pretty close to harvest right now but it is what it is. Four months from now it will be a pretty jamming time anyways harvest wise, I am looking forward to what the OMG can do. Wedding Cake is a personal favourite so I also look forward to having some of that again. I've actually been considering trying to time my next grows so that I do not have anything in deep flower this coming December/January. Not only to avoid what I have found to be the harshest conditions for my setup and strains during the year, but also on costs... and stress. Added bonus is the ability to take a trip for a week without stress if plants are only in veg. The big tent should have it's current harvest around the end of August, which leaves three months before the beginning of December to push another harvest through. Can do, I must just get the clones running up to harvest timed right. I think as soon as the mothers have enough off-shoots I will start to get them going already. I don't think I'll get either of the other tents going for another harvest in time once their respective harvests are completed, so I'll expend as much time as I can in developing some sturdy ladies during veg.

another week later still just running on clean water. though next watering will be second microbe inoculation and first feed of 0.5ml/L biogrow, the biogrow is not to exactly meant to feed the plant here, more of a source of food for the microbes as it has molasses in it with a bunch of other goodies for the microbes to snack on while they find their new homes in the rhizosphere. also slapped down the scroggy so I can play with them, can always move the net, I just find it easier and less time consuming than taking each individual plant out for LST.

Previous batch moved over to flower tent, was using the veg tent for some other stuff... got het cleaned out and ready for the next round 3 x Super Cheese, 1 x Frosted Apricot

soooooo, the flower tent is taking forever to finish and the veg tent has filled up a bunch over the last couple days. decided I'll get these ladies into flower so long so I flipped them to 12/12 and put the net down. don't want the same thing happening that happened now with the current flowering batch where the tent got so full it became a problem.

smol update this week. not much happening, cleaned under canopy again, just getting clean water still. worked Sodium Bicarbonate into the weekly IPM in the veg tent. always got pyrol on hand and use it at least once on every batch, but only had to get it for the sake of bringing in foreign plants as contact treatment for the shit your eys can't see. when I spray Pyrol I spray only Pyrol 30 to 35ml / 1Lwater, strong dose, but not full dose. rest of the time it's BioNeem 70% dose one week, Copper Soap 70% dose next week, Sodium Bicarbonate full dose last week and then repeat rotation.... not that anyone was asking the ladies

update I have been in the process of getting a new light for this tent, just haven't done it yet. Saw the great deal @Totemic offered, so I couldn't resist! Thanks again man, was a pleasure to meet you! added the 120w qb to help the blurple out a little here's a photo with both lights on, the 288 samsung qb almost overpowers the 300w blurp to anyone interested, the blurple is still up for sale together with some free seeds and free pots here is a few shots with just the 288 qb individual shots Blueberry Hashplant - she was stretching way too much so I made a bunch of cuttings Super Cheese - took a few cuttings of her aswell, just in case she's a keeper. French Macaron - added a photo of a friends outdoor plant, the one I got this cutting from Chernobyl Frosted Apricot - leaves praying like there's no tomorrow!

Small defoliation yesterday, took a few clones

just a little update here French Macaron Chernobyl Frosted Apricot Super Cheese Blueberry Hashplant

Day 34 Had to drop a net down past the top colas. I can just see they'll be flopping all over the place pretty soon. Otherwise after 2 weeks of pollination, seed development is well under way. 36 days to go

What's good, Team just another weekly update. still just clean water all the way, plants grew quite a bit since last post, I took the time to clean them up and spread them open to get that real bushy bush. French Macaron Blueberry Hashplant Frosted Apricots Super Cheese Chernobyl

Goodmorning, hope all is well and in good health! These ladies been living on nothing but 500ml clean water every second day, there should be more than enough food in the soil to not have to add nutrients, I am trying to keep them from growing too much as my flower tent still has its ways to go! still have a few spots on the leaves here and there, only thing I did that was out of the ordinary, I added some garden phosphate to the soil before transplanting so that's my main suspect at the moment.
