the title says it all really, i would simply like to share some of my techniques for anybody who would like to know how it is i go about producing fine quality cannabis. there are many ways to grow and i myself even use a few different styles when i feel the situation needs it, i am a long way from done learning put it that way.
first i'll start by naming all of the products i am currently using or have used in the past that i feel work as they should.
canna coco natural (ok but occasionally has lumps in and shredded plastic)
canna coco pro+ (i notice no difference between this and the natural, only it costs more)
atami coco ( seemed exactly the same as the canna with no plastic though)
canna coco a+b base ( can be salty but very potent stuff, it's all i know)
canna pk 13/14 (very salty!, works wonders when used at the right time, again it's all i know)
atami bloombastic ( as viscous as a lump of clay, but it most certainly works!)
canna rhizotonic (stinky and expensive but it works, good for veg plants)
h+g roots excelurator ( perfect for cuttings and transplants)
canna zym (the catalyst for success)
plant magic granules ( helps transplants)
canna boost ( another so called snake oil that actually works)
blossom blood ( does initiate flowering sooner)
clonex rootig gel (brand leader for a reason surely)
root riot cubes (they come already moist ffs, how easy do you want it?!)
root it cubes (work just as well but i don't like the shape as much as the root riot)
root it high dome unheated propagator (cheap and flimsy but works fine)
6" single bulb cooltubes (great for lowering temps but they rob the plants of light)
adjust a wing reflectors ( give a much better footprint and have more penetration if you can handle the heat)
powerplant enviroglow cfl (awesome for cuttings and small veg plants)
maxibright 250w cfl ( i used to keep a mother, veg plants and cuttings under one with great results)
sylvania grolux 600w hps bulb ( great for near the end of flower as they are orange)
sunmaster 600w hps bulb ( more white and better for veg and early flower)
maxibright ballast magnetic 600w ( i hear some horror stories but i've used many with no problems)
powerplant ballast magnetic 600w (same as above, it worked for me so i can't slag it off)
easi rolls adjustable light hangers ( never had one fail, they save me a lot of time)
budclean scissors curved blade (cheap and very effective, i cut everything with these)
rvk 4" 6" 8" fan ( they are a very well made piece of kit,a tad loud though)
tornado 8" acoustic box fan ( moves a tonne of air, still far from silent though)
bluelab e.c truncheon ( they last for a very long time, e.c is just as important as ph for me)
hm digital ph pen (lasted me years)
now some will laugh that i choose to spend so much on some nutrients but will buy the cheapest bulb available but it's the the way i do things. i one day hope to have a grow room set up as i think it should be, with no expense spared or detail overlooked, but for now i make do.
if anybody has any constructive input then feel free to share, as i said earlier my mind is open to learning new things, enjoy.
(work in progress, this took a while to come up with so give me time to get into the swing of what the thread is actually about)
