Hello every1.
All this arrived at my door step today.
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/24/ezubu7ap.jpg
So its only right I get this show on the road. The one and only Bud Lightyear offerd to mentor me on this grow a while back, and after seeing his last grow...there was no way a was gonna knock back that offer. So thanks verry much Bud.

The strain ive chosen is Barneys Pineapple Chunk. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/24/a3ahybe8.jpg

Its only going to be two plants. I have just started the germination process using moist paper towels and are tuckd away under my bed. I will check them in two days time...as thats how long its took every seed ive done this way to show the taproot.

You can see all the nutes and stuff in first pic...hopefully ive not forgot to buy anything as it cost a fortune lol.
The plants will start of in my little veg cab under a 125w blue cfl with a 24/0 light schedule....then moved into cupboard with the 250w hps.

Peace.

Awrite honda?
At first a thought pk 13/14 was the bloom booster...av no got a scooby about all these nutes tbh.
A just read its for added phosphorus n potassium, which the plant needs in the flowering stage.

Thanks Somewhat.
Interesting indeed lol. Lets see if I can do better with coco than I did with soil.

No misery this time lol. A got the main man helpin...hopefully a can do half as good as what your doing m8.
But the pk 13/14...a bought two bottles thinkin its the flower booster....but then Bud said ad need the canna boost n a was like...Hmm?? 20 quid for 250ml..wtf? Lol. A will try swap a bottle for more boost if needed.

cool buddy, i had got some plant magic stuff that i will probs try when its in flowering. we will need to see if it lasts that long first, it looks like my baby is about ready to die, i think i may have over feed it, leaves are all brown and ready to fall off by the looks of things. cant wait to see what you get as i have the same seeds as well for my next batch doing some auto blue mammoths.

Yea m8. 1ltr bottles. A take it 2ltrs of pk 13/14 is way too much?
First noob mistake lol.
But a orderd it online m8....the mob a orderd it from refunded me the price of ma ph pen cleaning kit cause the said the supplyer have changed the contents and reduced the amount of solution stuff or someshit like that. But they gave me the kit anyway.
So we could say that a got an extra bottle of pk fur less than half price. Cant knock that back lol.

Clunge Muncher
24-07-14, 03:21 PM
Oh right, i think its a tad overkill lol, i think in the 2 that ive done i don't think ive used half of bottle but through part of the grows ive been down to 2, but your doing 2 anyway.
Its not a nob mistake you just fucked up simples :D, nah that's fine mate if you wanted to get some money back stick it on the bay ent it.
Pity that but by the sounds of it you done alright out of them anyway :).

Ok no probs m8...al do it later this afternoon. As my ph pen is hydrating according to the instructions. Then a still need to calibrate it.
A know av askd u this before lol..but all Im adding to the water just now is Rhyzotonic?

Bud Lightyear
25-07-14, 12:57 PM
Yeah mate just Rhizo for now @ 1ml per litre will be fine ph to 5.8 after adding the Rhizo :)

Regards BL

25-07-14, 09:37 PM
Were sorted Bud.

Just put the little seeds in pots of coco like so...http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/26/ejazaje7.jpg

I waterd coco before planting seeds with water containing 1ml per ltr of Rhyzo and Ph'd to 5.8
I then sprinkled coco over seeds and gave that a little mist wiv same mix. Then put a little bag over top of pots, held in position with my girlfriends bobble lol.
They are now sitting in warmish dark place.

No wonder roots like this coco. Its so fine...roots must shoot through it like concorde's.
The water just drains straight out.

Peace.

Hey Bud...i noticed this morning that they had stretched a little too much for my liking, with the cfl being 15 inches away. So ive lowerd the light a fair bit.
I also reckon the coco is looking a bit dry.
Ive also moved the light and plants from the little cab into my cupboard. As its actualy piping hot. So hopefully with cfl in bigger space and the 4 inch extraction...temps wont be so bad.
Temps never went over 80ºF in cab last time...but they was over 85ºF this morning?

Laters.

Bud Lightyear
28-07-14, 12:24 PM
Good call on lowering the light mate, a touch of stretch will be ok as you can add more coco to the pots, thats why its a good idea not to have the pot filled to the brim to start with ...If temps get a bit on the high side, leave the cab door open if thats possible. If the coco is drying out give them a drop of water with Rhizo added @ 1ml per litre Ph to 5.8. We can get them on a light feed in the next couple of days when they have developed a bit more :)

Regards BL

RASTA
28-07-14, 04:54 PM
Ok Bud. A waterd them just now.
1ml per litre of rhyzo
Ph@ 5.8 and the ec measured 0.2.

Heres how they looking.

You just need enough to moisten the coco at this point mate, the aim is to force the roots to search for moisture and maintain a good water/air ratio in the coco.

Herbenburg
28-07-14, 06:18 PM
I think I was giving mine around 40/50ml each per day mate, try get the fan blowing on the top of the coco to help dry them quicker too, it's easy to think the coco needs lots of water as it allways stays so light and airy no matter how much water you put through it, a good way I found is to look at the color of the coco, let it go a lighter more sandy shade of brown before feeding again

Don't worry about them being slow at this point mate, we just want to ease them into the world before the feeding starts. They are under their own steam at the moment....We gonna start them on a light feed in the next couple of days, then boom watch the fuckers go :)

The thing is...ec doesnt change after I add rhyzo?

And ive noticed the edges on leaves are kind of purple looking?

The Rhizo won't make much or any difference to the Ec, its just a root stimulant, it will contain very little in the way of salts which is what you Ec meter measures... Do what I said in post #65 and let me know the results..The colour is most likely due to the lack of micro nutrients, deffo ready to start feeding.

I need you to make up a feed so i can get a benchmark, when you have made up the feed come back with the numbers and then we can take it from there.
Dont worry dude, nothing to be confused about, it will all become apparent and you will see where we are going with this :)

Ok Bud....1/2ml of both A&B and 2ml of rhyzo to 1ltr of water Ph'd @5.8 brought the Ec to 0.7

After adding ph down...it was at 5.7 so a just added one or two droplets of rhyzo to bring it to 5.8
That ok to do that? As ive no ph up...a heard silicon ups ph but not sure what its for.

Ok mate now we have got a reference point, if you dilute it down with water to Ec @ 0.6 that will be fine taking your background Ec into account. You can give them a feed with that tomorrow... Ec @ 0.6 Ph @ 5.8 re check the Ph prior to feeding and adjust if needed.

Don't worry mate the edges is either your water or not getting the timing right to start feeding...Its a tough call when to start the feed when they are so small, some can go over a week before needing food, it all depends on how much the embryo has stored..I'm watching for the new growth, if its the same we just switch to bottled water, simples :bigjoint:

Nothing to worry about mate, if you only got a bit of runoff out the pots, it wont be a true representation of what's going on...Your bound to get a little build-up due to the small amounts going in, they are not going to be in the danger zone though. Once they start drinking a bit more you can aim for more runoff which will help the medium clear itself of any slight build-up. Anyhow, new growth looks good that's the best indicator in my book :)

Once again not trying to jack your thread but your guy bud send to have this coco down to a science. Bty I'm subbed up at the round table!!! :-)
Thanks tru. New adventure for us both.

I water/feed these everyday m8. The coco looks dry and pots feel light everytime. So a reckon they drinking a lot. Although my cfl light is on 24/0 which may play a part in drying out the medium more. A dunno.

Question for ya Rasta ??
I was told air pots are fantastic for soil. Letting air into parts of the pot that remained very compact in standard pots. Do you think the same thing holds tru with coco. I ask only because i thought coco was suppose to be super airy already. Now would soil perform like coco in the air pots pertaining to growth rates ?? Just wondering...

Well what ive read on them m8....its not so much getting more air into the medium.
Its how the roots respond in these pots. In normal pots the roots circle the pots. But in air pots, the roots are directed to the little holes because of the shape of the pot and the roots get naturaly pruned by the air. Which forces the plant to produce more roots.
But I doubt soil would perform like coco in these pots regards to growth rate.

The article I read on these air pots...made them sound much better lol.
Plus av only heard good things about them on here.

Hey Rasta, sorry I wasn't around yesterday, not been too well mate...Anyway now you have your pots, what you need to do is place a couple of inches of coco in the bottom of the pots and firm it down, fill the pots in layers gently pressing the coco into the cones as you work your way up the pots, as you get near the top use the pots your plants are in as a mold to create a hole......

Once you have potted them into the new pots, water them in slowly with 1 liter each of your feed solution.

Thats good to hear m8. And just as well u mentiond how much to fill the pots.
A was thinking of only filling it up to the first layer of holes...so a could use the holes to tie them to when lst'n them.

13-08-14, 11:38 AM
Just leave one row of cones showing on the inside at the top mate, it will probably slump down a little once its watered but can be topped up with fresh coco.
If you don't have the coco high enough the water will piss out the sides when the proper watering starts. You can still use the holes as anchor points later if you wish, its easy enough to fish some string through them, or what I do is tie some string round the circumference of the pots near the top and use that to anchor to.

Fuck knows how not....av only used about a litre from a 50 ltr bag. Unless these air pots are bigger than 20ltr.
Anyway...only one is done. Al go get more coco tomorro. And a also need bigger drainage trays.

The coco in little pots was realy dry but a just transplanted it before watering them. 2ml Rhyzo, 1/2ml of A&B....Ec@ 0.7 Ph'd@ 5.8
Only poured 1ltr in big pot but tried to keep it round about the roots.

Something that worries me Bud is this cfl light....the plants are gonna be further from bulb now due to bigger pots. Hopefully they dont stretch or anything.

This took me ages just doing one pot lol....so av probably forgot something to add to diary.

Mon the coco ;) shame about the suppliers :(

Automated droppers thats the problem, they work on weight with a counter balance system...Slightly damp coco equals less coco in the bag thats my guess.

Nowt to worry about mate, that will iron itself out when the feed gets increased in a few days, probably down to slight lack of micro elements. Get the other one potted up asap, keep putting a litre a day into them. Give them a few days to settle in and we can up the Ec a tad :)

Day 17 since sprouting.

Av not got enough coco :mad:
Fuck knows how not....av only used about a litre from a 50 ltr bag. Unless these air pots are bigger than 20ltr.
Anyway...only one is done. Al go get more coco tomorro. And a also need bigger drainage trays.

The coco in little pots was realy dry but a just transplanted it before watering them. 2ml Rhyzo, 1/2ml of A&B....Ec@ 0.7 Ph'd@ 5.8
Only poured 1ltr in big pot but tried to keep it round about the roots.

Something that worries me Bud is this cfl light....the plants are gonna be further from bulb now due to bigger pots. Hopefully they dont stretch or anything.

This took me ages just doing one pot lol....so av probably forgot something to add to diary.

Ok no bother Bud.
Av only got a little clip on fan trying to blow between plants n bulb.
But its not doing much good as the plants are spaced apart too much a think. N a can only realy get that fan positiond in one spot.
That canoeing wasnt on the plant last night...it grew overnight too close to the bulb a think m8.
Temps when opening door today was 80 degrees. Humidity was at 52%

It may be tomorro a sort the hps out. But once thats in...it will be further away from the plants and a can get a bigger fan blowing nicely between plants and bulb.
