    Nice set up mate, only thing I can see wrong is(check with the others though) your soil. B+q multi purpose, should have used j author bowers with john innes, and have you added any petile?

    Also see you have had some clones off someone by the looks of it, what strain are they?

    Both bio bizz and Canna Flores are very very good. I would tend to go for the bio bizz for a first time grow as they are a little more forgiving if you over do it.

    If you do choose bio bizz, it's best to use bio bizz grow and bloom all the way through. Here's the feeding schedule i used to use when i was using bio bizz >>

    Once in the final pots let them root out the soil ball before flowering, as a general rule of thumb once all the plants are showing roots at the drainage holes. Go to 12/12.

    You should not need any feed right through these stages. Once you are on 12/12 start feeding 1 ml of both grow and bloom to a litre of water.

    At about week 2 of flowering change the mix to 1 ml grow and 2 ml bloom per litre.

    At week 3 [21 days] a one off feed of a heaped table spoon of epsom salts per 10 litres add to that 1 ml of grow and 2 ml of bloom.

    Round the 4 week mark, the mix is 1ml gr and 3 ml bl.

    Once you start to see browning of pistils change to 2 ml gr and 1 ml bl keep with that till the end.

    All you really need is grow and bloom + a little epsom salts.

    An added point, if you see the tissue between the veins on the lower leaves turning a lighter green at any point its likly the first signs of Mg shortage starting an addition of a little epsom salts to the next feed should keep things right. Don’t over do this or else you can lock out other nutrients.

    If you need to add any extra epson salt's at anytime, i use 1 tsp to 5 ltrs of water. Be sure to melt the epson's in a little warm water first then add to your 5 ltrs.
