Haven't been here in a while, been enjoying my crop too much! They finally weighed in at 21.5oz dry, not bad for 5 plants. Looking back on the grow i think i was too enthusiastic about tying them down early, the space that they have has lots of height but not much outward space so i think next...

Well i took most of the big tops off last night. I would have liked to leave them a little longer to wait for more trichs to darken but i got some bud rot and lost a couple of tops. I'm going away for a few days tomorrow so decided to take what i had now and not risk losing any more. Haven't...

Changing the water seems to have done the job, the leaves seem to have stopped yellowing. The mites are coming back though, i gave them another spray but i need to go get more. Other than that they seem to be doing ok, buds are firming up nicely and most of the branches can't support their own...

Buds are getting on nicely but im a bit concerned by a few of the leaves. I've had a spider mite problem again and quite a few leaves have started turning yellow between the veins. I've just changed the water and nutes (hadn't been done for a little over 2 weeks) and given them a good soaking...

Here's some new pics 5 (ish) weeks in. Everything seems to be going well so far, 4 branches are too heavy to support their own weight :) Some of the branches i bent over have grown back towards the light even with the weights i put on them but i don't think i want to bend them back now so they...

Thought i'd post a few pics of my current grow. Trying out a few techniques i learnt from this site, possibly a few too many to try at once but everything seems to be going well so far. This is my 4th grow, the last one sucked though due to spider mites and using the wrong ph readers (dye for...

Surely you mean OFF for 6.40 and ON for 12? Anyway, glad your giving this lighting cycle a go i'll be interested in the results, looks good so far though. Subscribed.

I tried having shorter days on my last grow. Unfortunatley i also fucked it up by not being around for a month and letting the ph get way too low so i cant give a fair idea of yeild, it was a shit grow. I did find though that if you set your timers to 6.40 off and 12 on you can fit 9 'days' into...

so what about lst then supercropping?

so would you guys recomend supercropping after fiming? or even after fiming and lsting?

Feasible for the space but not currently for my budget, im pretty broke atm. Ive tried just having the 600 in the middle but you really notice the difference in yield for the ones on the edges if i just run 1. Currently an average grow is costing me about 180 gbp in electricity (including fan...

Well i run a hydro flow table so the space is pretty much fixed unfortunatly.

Well both lights are suspended on chains anchored at 2 points so i can move them around a bit. Thinking about ditching the scrog idea cos im worried about mite problems, they have been the bane of my grow for ages. i think 8 topped plants will have to do.

What is? 8 plants? do you recon id be better off with more?

Thanks for the comments guys. So what sort of issues do you get with scrog? Bud rot if its too packed? i've been battling spider mite for virtually the length of my current grow (under control but never quite gone, little bastards) so id imagine scrog would make it harder to kill off...
