    The medium is the problem, plagron bat mix is shit, I’ve tried it recently, shit, absolute shit lol

    Tropic batmix is what you want mate.

    Also, you growing organic I assume using this medium? You shouldn’t be getting run off. You want to keep the medium moist. Let the top inch dry out, but then water them. If they dry out, the bacteria dies, and that’s what you need to make sure your plants food is getting broken down.

    I’d say, transplant them into bigger pots, get rid of the pebbles, and get them into tropic bat mix. Then also get some “ ecothrive biosys microbe tea” and add that to your medium, and water the new medium until it’s nice and wet, but no run off.

    They’ll look better within a week if you do this mate, it’ll fix the issues.

If ventilation is high, the humidity is extremly low.

    Can i go straigt into the final pots from these ? - the final are around 12 litres (2,5 gal) or use intermediate ? I have square 18*18*15 pots that could be used as intermediate.

    THanks guys
    If you have a bit of spare cash you can get a really good humidifier on amazon for £30. Pro breeze 3.8l

    any other recomendations for soil? the one you mention might be difficult to botain.
    I was thinking aout buying something like plagron grow mix for this transplat and then put it into something for flower.
    I also have some bat guano on the side so I might be able to mix it in but does it make sense for grow phase ?

    B&Q and Verve are 2 different brands ? I did not really find much about them.
    What about going to a local gardening centre and just buying something they sell ? What should I look at there ?
