Cheers bro, yes 910g is the total dried weight from the 5 plants, lighting was a progression from a mars tsl + 1x 4k Kingbrite 240w board at the start and I finished with 3x 3k 240w running at 85-90%

You're right enough they're from Green House seeds, I've not smoked them yet but there's 2 distinct aromas, 2 plants have a onion/garlicky smell with a hint of vomit lol, one other has a lovely sweet fruity/berry smell it's really nice, 2 others meh...I'm not expecting much in terms of flavor.

Just bought this for starting seeds while I have the main finishing off etc.


not too bad £19.95 24w T5 2ft long. This will mount to one of my 3 storage shelves In the walkway.

although the best of it is that I got rid of one of these about a year ago lol.
Now I want one to help speed up my harvest to starting to veg cycle again lol.

I am basically on my own Christmas Day. The wife is at work. My eldest is going to a meal with her friends. My youngest is getting £50 for her Roblox account, so she will be doing that all day. It is my youngest that wants Steak and Blue Cheese sauce for Christmas dinner. I might just get in a Rustlers microwave burger and have it with McCoys.:D

Goose is the poultry of Satan.:D

I've since moved my re potted bluchi into a bigger tent but there's a considerable £ difference trying to heat it properly.

The plants are still small and don't require much wattage which = low heat in a big area :-(

I'm considering putting my 3x3 inside my 5x5 to save me having to take down/uninstall my clone tent, hang fan/filters ducting and all the other stuff involved with putting up a tent.

Normally I tie them over at the 6-7th node but these are at the 10-11th node so I I'll likely top them instead, I nearly done them last night but thought I'll wait until I get the bubble cloner set up to clone the tops.

Have you considered timer controlling your exhaust fan? Or seeing how well it keeps heat by recirculating the exhaust back into the tent?

if tents are close to each other duct another tents exhaust into your tent for heat?

Anyone ever potted up a plant while in flowering ? Only on day seven and only just shown sex I kept some plants in smaller pots to sex them and now I have I lost three to balls but have two left but small pots ? Can it be done or would it be too stressful ?

It's temperature controlled so there's not enough heat for the thermostat to kick without adding a heater and dehumidifier, recirculating ime ime causes humidity issues.

Just seen a really cool heater on Growell.

it’s a flat panel that rolls up when not in use and can be hung On a wall completely flat to it.

apparently been designed with LED usage in mind.

i think it runs at 500w but heats up areas pretty quickly and then just pops on to keep it up to temp here and there.

couple of reviews really praise it.

Yes a few times, plants keep growing roots until the end or near enough the end.
To avoid as much stretch I used to repott and flipping the same day.

I personally use an 80w tubular heater for raising temps slightly.

can be used on a timer or just left on 24/7.

I’ve been leaving mine on 24/7 at the min to raise temps and I’ve blocked my external intakes for air so it’s just pulling from the walkway area, I’ve found I’ve had to set my fan controller a little higher for “idle” as it wasn’t removing enough RH otherwise.

What’s the basic principal Of this method ? Thanks
Click to expand...
Basic principle


take new pot and fill with your soil/coco

back fill around a pot the same size of the existing poT so you now have a hole in your new pot and medium the size of the pot the plant is currently in.

lift plant out and place into premade hole in the new pot and water it in.

It’s all in the first post in that tutorial (that was written by me)
