Sacred Seeds Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 I must say, based on what I've read on this page, there are a couple of members who seemed to have gone to weed college and others seem to have Chemistry degrees!

Sacred Seeds Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 29 August 2015 - 15:00 Temperature: (Min – Max) 17.0 – 25.0 Degrees Celsius Humidity (Min – Max) 42% - 71% Watered the remaining plants that are still in the 350ml Styrofoam cups with 5.5ph Amino Acids, Nutrients A & B. The “Orphan plant” is doing really well after I connected an air pump directly to the bottom of the Styrofoam cup I must still water the 5 plants in the Autopot since transferring them on 23 August. They are all looking healthy so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacred Seeds Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 31 August 2015 - 21:00 Temperature: (Min – Max) 17.4 – 25.6 Degrees Celsius Humidity (Min – Max) 48% - 74% The Styrofoam cups are unusually light considering they were fed 2 days ago. I suppose that’s a good thing. I hope the plants are now using all the required nutrients. I watered the remaining 5 plants with 5.5ph Amino Acids, Nutrients A & B. I will be transferring them soon to a bigger pot. I still have not yet watered the 5 plants in the Autopot since transferring them on 23 August. They are showing no signs of drought.:thumbups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacred Seeds Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 3 September 2015 – 23:00 Temperature: (Min – Max) 14.0 – 28.0 Degrees Celsius Humidity (Min – Max) 45% - 65% Watered the remaining plants that are still in the 350ml Styrofoam cups with 5.5ph Amino Acids, Nutrients A & B. 6 September 2015 – 22:00 I did my usual watering with 5.5ph’d Nutrients A & B, Hydro Fungicide & Amino Acids. I eventually watered the 5 plants in the Autopot since transferring them on 23 August even though they showed no signs of drought. The orphan with the air pump is doing really well still.

Sacred Seeds Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 10 September 2015 – 10:00I did my usual watering with 5.5ph’d Nutrients A & B, Hydro Fungicide & Amino Acids. The orphan with the air pump is doing really well still. I have removed the air pump from the orphan. I transferred 3 of the plants in the Styrofoam cups to a slightly bigger pot and connected the air pump that I used for the orphan previously. There are only 2 plants now in the 350ml Styrofoam cups. I will transfer them soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Leaf Organics Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Hi bud Things are looking good :thumbups one thing I think you may need to start thinking about are those maximum temps you reaching. This is not a now problem but considering its only September and you already hitting 28 degrees come summer you going to starting getting issues with temps. 28 is already on the high side of optimal . Just a thought to consider Cheers Reaf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a water air cooler that I can add ice to that will help keep temps down but I'm still thinking of extra alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacred Seeds Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 Sorry that I haven’t updated my grow for the last month. I basically kept on watering the 2 small plants in the Styrofoam cups every 2 – 3 days with the usual nutrients. . The 5 in the Autopot are also doing well still. 1 October 2015 - Transferred the bigger plant in the Styrofoam cup to Outdoors to a 15L Soil pot with JGS mix. I gave that one to a friend to look after in his garden as space was starting to become a problem. I continued to water the Orphan in the last Styrofoam cup every 2 days with the usual nutrients. 6 October 2015 - I used “The Orphan” as my guinea pig (The late bloomer that turned out to be a lady) for the CCPS. I transferred her into 15L of Coco Compact Potting Soil to test their claims that I don’t have to feed any nutrients a few months. I watered her with plain tap water and the drainage was very good. Hopefully she will settle well into her new home. 8 October 2015 - I added some Coco Compact Potting Soil at the bottom of the Autopot to feed the 5 ladies. The 3 females that I had growing in a medium size pot were also transferred into in to a wider deeper pot which is now in an amended JGS mix. This pot I also watered using plain tap water. The “Autopot 5” and the “Orphan” are now the only hydro babes. 17 October 2015 - Up until now all plants are doing very well and have not been watered since transferring to JGS amended soil. The Hydro Babes are flourishing too. The fridge flowering cabinet will hopefully be completed in the next few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacred Seeds Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 UPDATE - 1 December - Due to not being able to control the heat indoors, I moved all my plants outdoors under a roof with permanent shade. Its been 8 days outside acclimatizing to the excessive ambient heat and strong wind. They have had no direct sunlight for 8 days and they are doing well even though some of the leaf tips were slightly curled up due to heat stress. I am still watering all my plants with plain tap water. All new growth is looking healthy so far. I will be leaving my plants in this shady spot until the summer solstice which is 22 December. I will be transferring all my plants out in the direct sunlight on this date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacred Seeds Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 I am so pissed right now! Not for the first time I forget to type in notepad. I have lost 30 minutes typing out an update! I now no longer have time to re-do it as I have to leave! Don't you hate it when that happens? Anyway all my plants are sick due to environmental issues and I needed some advice. I will try and post it later when I get back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacred Seeds Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hey Guys! I moved to a new area in December and started a new job in January. I've been hectic busy. When I wanted to eventually log in to my 420sa account, I couldn't remember my password. I also had issues with my email account, a broken phone & my pc crashed. Lol! That wasn't the worse! All my plants died because my new residence's water is much harder. Anyway I've learned a shit load and I'm getting ready to start a new grow.

Sacred Seeds Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 On the upside! I have a nice big house with a very large en-suite bathroom and I don't have to deal with the extreme heat in a wendy house. This time I want to invest a little more in decent lighting and concentrate heavy on climate control.:thumbups At least I have a permanent job that will help me maintain my hobby financially.
