  1. Howzit guys.

     

    I'm curious. Do any of you have an automated water delivery system? I'm looking to do something along theses lines coz there are days when I'm not home and my plants suffer. It's gotta be small scale. If you have a system in place, lets see it or hear your ideas.

     

    :-peace

  2. Awe bud, do you know the rating of your fan? I tried something similar, but my fan isn't strong enough so it was getting warmer than I'd like. I'm using a 120mm, 87 cfm fan. Anyways, this is what I did. It might work for you.

     

    Check my thread, http://www.420sa.co.za/index.php/topic,969.msg8708.html#msg8708 you'll see the box I made that houses the fan. At the other end of the ducting have a cardboard box that it dumps the humid smelly air into. In the lid of the box I have a small dish that I cut the bottom out of, replaced the base with pantyhose and put a layer of carbon in there. A stronger fan would obviously be better, but this works for me.

     

    The box houses all my wiring, blocks the light leak from the ducting, muffles the humming of my fans a shit load and makes the cupboard "fit in more". In my garage the db reading with everything off is 54, with the fans on and the cab door open it's 76, with the cab door closed it's 57.

  3. What EC? Sounds low, but she looks like she'll be picky. Why would you want to use molasses? As in, what made you think of it? Something you read or deduced?

    That I can't tell you. I don't own an EC pen. She is picky, I've lowered my micro nutes by 2ml and she seems to be liking that more.

     

    I've read a few posts that molasses fattens your buds and makes her produce more resin. Some swear by it, others say it messes with the grow.

  4. Looking good so far CK!

     

    It's good to alternate feeds with nutes and straight water to prevent a build up of salts. I'm not so sure about Molasses in hydro grows but I'm sure it wont do any harm. I have read about hydro guys using molasses.

     

    So yea do the alternating

    Awe, thanks @420SA. I just want big fat buds bro. Any other tips?

     

    Can you feed amino acids in flower?

  5. Awe boet, I started feeding when the 1st set of true leaves were out. I'm using the lucas formula that @cheese420 put me onto. 3ml micro and 4.5ml bloom to 3.8L water for seedlings and cuttings. Worked out well. Just make sure you're feeding at 5.8 or as close as possible.

  6. I guess I've never done main lining so I'm no pro at it.

     

    Keen to see how she does.

    Awe @Dabtzar, this update is for you bro. She's looking good. 5 days later... The one pic is just to show the actual colour. And check my clones ;D

     

    Ok, so to all the homies, how much longer do you think I should veg this one for? I'll only have 8 colas, so I want nice big fat ones.

  7. Yes it has been quiet but I guess we all get busy at some point. I wanted to know, did you put the clones directly in a jiffy and then cover it with a clear bag?

    Awe SSA, I followed this guide, http://www.420sa.co.za/index.php/topic,385.0.html as for my propagator, it was just a pot, holes taped up with some leca at the bottom and a clear bag over the top.

     

    How you finding the freedom pots? Looking healthy bud. Sent from my SM-A500FU using Tapatalk

    Thanks @Dabtzar, I like this pot dude, so much better to judge moisture. She's loving it
