    NEWBIE

    Best pH pen around. Mine is coming three years old and is still good. Got a spare already of the same brand because pH pens do eventually stop working.
  2. They, and any new customers, don't even know. A slight disservice on THC's part. Maybe they didn't have all their eggs in one basket and it's only one facility that was raided. Who knows, info is scarce.
  3. Well, I am assuming their equipment and plants have either been confiscated or in true Mzansi fashion, destroyed. If that is not the case however, they would have to cease operations until the charges are cleared in order to avoid further scrutiny. The court case is in January, eish. That's a solid harvest already missed. THC haven't made any statements on either their social media or their website. I wouldn't go out of my way to use their service until the court case is over because if it goes bad for them then no customer has any agency to get a refund as it would be considered an "illegal" activity.
  4. Been sitting here thinking what to say but this is really weird. This has gotta be a personal vendetta. Some old dying turtle from generations past is pushing their dead agenda just one more time before they finally kick the bucket and become irrelevant.
  5. What's funny is that Business Tech did a article on them when they first started, questioning the legality, but haven't reported anything about the raid. There is definitely media silence on this one, only Fields of Green for All have reported anything about it.
  6. https://fieldsofgreenforall.org.za/schindlers-to-the-rescue-the-haze-club-arrests/ The outcome of this case will set a lot of important precedent with regards to private clubs. Either that or the cops will throw it out, which will then be cause for unlawful arrest and further set a precedent in its own right. The popo really screwed the pooch on this one.
  7. Very specialized, and very cool. That light baffle accessory is awesome; air passes through but light cannot. Usually I have a piece of ducting at an angle through my passive intake but a light baffle would save space and look way fresher.
  8. As soon as you need more than two ducts it can be a little costly or even difficult at times to find the Secret Jardin accessories or the correct duct size you are looking for. If one were to opt for more than two ducts I'd probably then rather suggest an alternative.
  9. Well, the accessories are necessary as you need to make your own ducting holes in the Secret Jardin which gives you a very versatile means of sorting out your ventilation placement. The included net is also perfectly sized for the tent. I would say it is worth the extra R300 if the above is something that will benefit you.
  10. Out of these choices I would go with Secret Jardin for the better material and zipper quality. It will definitely last longer than the Magic Garden tent. Although I am saying this as an owner of two Magic Garden tents but their condition is slowly fading and one day the zippers will definitely fail. I am already looking into replacing them after two years. But as @PsyCLown says, there's a real shortage in the country at the moment for the mid-high end brands. So if you can grab a Secret Jardin while they are still available then lekker.
  11. Bruh I've never grown weed like that, c'mon Flowered in about 9 weeks solid.
  12. Indeed sir. This is the same GSR strain. I have now done two different GSR strains and have gotten airy buds twice. It hasn't stopped me from popping another GSR strain in my new grow though. I believe I can get it right but I probably won't grow any GSR strains after this one.
  13. The buds have been curing for about 2 and a half weeks now. They have dried well and are all a pretty smooth smoke with each having their own traits. Skywalker OG (Soil) Definitely the strongest of the lot. Very spicy smoke and a heavy hitter to the head. I call it my "night-night" weed. Does not make for a very productive day and I would suggest as a pain killer or for insomnia. Great stuff for recovery or balms/tinctures. I made both a shea butter balm, vegetable glycerin and coconut oil. Super stuff. Aurora Indica (Soil) The best all-rounder. Fruity smooth smoke for anytime of the day. Very indica and body hitting, but not so much that you're couchlocked. Not so heavy on the head. Definitely has the best aroma of the bunch. Pink Mango Gelato (Hydro) The buds came out very airy unfortunately. What it does not have in bag appeal it makes up for in flavour. It is the tastiest smoke of the bunch and a heavy hitter. Hints of vanilla are noticeable when the jar is opened and the smoke is also light and sweet. Very frosty, but airy buds. I rate that pretty much ends the grow. Been a fun one and the bud is being thoroughly enjoyed thanks for following and I'll keep the updates going on the next one.
  14. I agree. I also think if someone is passionate and has the means they are probably at it already, but it'd be nice if the funds were taxable and a benefit to all. Unfortunately the use of our tax in the country is also a contended issue at the moment, so even that as a benefit is misleading. You can take your commie ass outta here and back to China!
  15. Thanks for reminding me about this jeez I was a n00b when this thread was started.
  16. I'd also probably go bigger than necessary. Might be a bit tricky if you have multiple strains though. I think also the gram amount labelled for the terp bag should be considered the max with regards to the bag's ability to regulate the humidity.
  17. I experienced those burnt clawed tips when I overfed and my pH was below 5. Try a feeding above pH 6 at half the dose. Although the tips won't fix itself now, you're only preventing any further abnormalities.

    Best Soil of 2020

    I've been very pleased with what the Organics Matter soil did for my first soil grow so I gotta give them the vote for that.
  19. I have been getting into balms and tinctures recently. I am going to try keeping the roots and mixing them in along the trim next time I make extracts.
  20. 10 Days From Seed Found some nice trays at Westpack to use for overflow when watering. Got the QB set to 100W at the moment and the plants are responding well. Watered again for the first time today since the transplant on Tuesday (5 days ago). So far smooth and sweet.
  21. @Chris Jay good to see you again. Just been growing tobacco hey?
