  1. Hey guys. This one still struggling, but the other have bounced back, any advise?
  2. The old toppie that gave them to me only grows skunk. He said there is 3 different strains in the seeds he gave me. He gave me a pckt with 10 seeds mixed(all skunk) skunk no.1 Lemon skunk cant remember the 3rd
  3. Is anyone interested in swopping seedlings for Skunk seedlings? They busy sprouting right now. Im willing to accept any other strains. I stay in Tableview.

    Wouldnt neemoil help for that? i know you use it for spider mites
  7. My new seedlings in the humid done are starting to pop i will put them straight into ff organic mix as is? i am also gonna buy 2 or 3 100+ watt CFL’s will this be sufficient for a (L)2x(W)1x(H)1m grow space? i will move to different area with same space, only 2m high instead. Once the get too big for first area. PS. Does any of you stay close to Tableview?
  8. Im gonna try to go to hydroponics in Kraaifontein, on Saturday morning
  9. Can i mix perlite into organic mix? Is there anything else i should put on?
  10. So all that soil i mixed i should throw out and replace? Or can i just dump it a bucket and leave it for a few months?
  11. I want to try with coco peat and perlite, but I'm not experienced enough yet. Maybe next grow
  12. Thanx this is very help-full, looks like i got a few things to sort out. I haven't planted my new skunk seedlings yet, they still in humid dome. Still time to rectify before i plant them. How much perlite would i add to a 25 lt bucket of potting soil? And what else would be good to add?
  13. The lights are store bought, as mentioned, tight budget. Was looking to get a few 20w cfl’s to boost lumens? I water them with a spray bottle every day a few squirts. Did add nutes, yes I use the same growing medium in all my pots, but only a few are struggling. I do think PH may be a factor, but i havent been able to buy a soil ph tester yet. How would you flush regular potting soil? Wouldnt it just drown the plant?
  14. Since ive taken the oic of my setup, i have added another light board, so i now have 8 bulbs on
  15. Hey guys, i just recently started my first indoor growth, so stoked, but im on a tight budget. so i built a basic setup in my garage, see pics below. Im using CFL lights with 4k spectrum and each bulb giving 90lumen per watt. using potting soil as grow medium mixed in bone meal and some organic fertilizer pellets. Also added some kelpak and grow boosters to water mix, which i only started to ph balance since yesterday. Some of my babies arent doing so well, please help plc of a sick baby attached below
  16. Im doing a humidity dome germination for the first time, I've also just soaked them in water for 24hrs then place in paper-towel a keep damp. Once sprouted plant to soil. waiting to see how the dome compares to my previous method.
  17. Same thing happened to some of my plants too. But the majority was fine. I assume i messed up something there, maybe over feeding/watering soil ph could be off i have since dbled up on lights and lowered closer to the plants. I use cfl lights 90lumen/w 6000k i use 4 different nutz, but only today started to ph it to 5.5-6.0 before applying. im giving them a few more days to see if they improve
  18. HI all New to the forum and to growing indoor, very excited. hoping to pickup some new tricks and tips on growing and in the process connect with some other weed lovers like myself.
  19. I browsed around online and found that CFL lights are just as good as most grow lights and cost a fraction of the energy. i get from each bulb (cool white) 6000k 90lumen/w and for vegging just switch to warm white 2600k 90lumen/w Did i make mistake?
  20. What ph level should your nutrient mixed water be? I tested mine earlier and it was 8.5ph which i assume is way too high?
