i'm not saying it doesn't work or do a good job, its just not organic, seems kind of pointless to go with the soil option if its not organic but thats just me I guess.

If we go soil we will definitly be going organic, I think soil is actually looking favourite now as it's a lot cheaper and katt wants to grow Californian hash and they aignt the cheapest seeds around haha.

i ve always used miracle grow and my mates use westlands, 2 x 50 litre bags for a tenner from b&q. only issue with miracle gro is that its got slow release nutes and although i've had no problems at all i know sum people complain about nute burn( i never added any nutes for first 3 to 4 weeks though).70% miracle grow, 20% perlite, 5% vermiculite.total cost under £20. eventually bio bizz nutes, gro and bloom, treacle at the last few weeks of flower, all in ten litre tubs, under 1000 hps for flower. water roughly 3 times a week(aroound 2.5 to 3 litre per water). pulled 23 oz from 6 plants, although one plant was moved halfway thru flower due to possible hermieing and put under 400 watt hps on it own.
Morning dragon, not feeling so great today, think i might of accidently given me and katt food poisoning or something, she was too I'll to come into work so I'm just sat here on my bill with only my phone till it's time to close.
And dura, holy shite 23 from 6?! How tall did you let them grow/ how long did it take? Me and katt can smoke an oz in little over a week maybe a week n 1/2 at a push so I'm trying to work out how many plants il need to keep us in constant supply

about 2 weeks seedling time under 2 x 55 watt cfl, another 4 weeks under 600 hps until they were around 24" high, then 8/9 weeks under 600 watt hps for first 4 weeks then added another 400watt hps for last 4/5 weeks, smallest plant was around 3 1/2 foot, tallest just under 5', home made co2 bottle with yeast(cost 75p for tin), sugar and water all in a tent 4' x 4' x 6 1/2 ', treacle( i tablespoon per litr, cost 50p for small tin) for last 4 weeks. only took 1 week to dry in tent with lite off but fans still on.

think i got some pics in my albums, if u go into my public profile and search around a bit in the albums section (i dont really bother taking much pics)...just a normal tin of tate and lyle treacle westy, cost 50p from tesco( somerfield wanted 75p the robbing cunts) kept on hearing bout all the yanks using mollasses so i checked it out and although u can get mollasses here it easier to get treacle(it just a pure sugar carbohydrate, helps bulk the plant and apparently mellows the smoke a bit, although u gott awatch out during summer coz the sugar may attract bugs). dunno if it helped much but i was fuckin over the moon with my results, i'd only anticipated 3 oz per plant at best.....yeah lpool any thing you wanna ask mate just fire away, if i can help i will or maybe give u sum tips as to where u may get answers buddy

That would be the dark treacle, you don't eat that by itself and it does make an acceptable replacement for molasses, I've had to do the switch for gingerbread cookies

you can eat dark treacle like that, although golden syrup tastes nicer.That would be the dark treacle, you don't eat that by itself

Haha, yeah I just meant in regards to RiffiX, he doesn't eat that by itself, it's the golden syrup that he chugs on occasion! I know there are a couple websites that have American products, but it's quite difficult to find in normal shops. I only just scored myself some maple syrup from aldi, but I want to check out some of those sites and get myself some spaghettios cuz the heinz hoops are just not cutting it for me!

there is far too much "sauce" in a can of heinz spaghetti.
You can get some nice maple syrup, tesco's finest is pretty good.
I don't really shop at aldi.
Dark stuff tastes horrid! Work is sooooo dull I'm bored out of my skull! And out of tea bags
I seriously hope we can get a bag 'o' green tonight. I'm thinking we might order seeds tonight too if I do go to b&q, I hope our light arrives soon, I msgd the guy Earlier to see when it's getting shipped.
