hey man I was just reading back through your posts and saw that you use silica and floralicious and I just wanted to ask why, I know the silica is used to make your rez 'wetter' but I wanted to know if you had better results with that and also why the floralicious? Sorry to bug you with these nooby questions but since im running the same nutes I thought I'd ask to see why you use it incase im missing out on something big here...
Never say sorry for asking a Question it's how we all learn i noticed a nice change in the plant's once adding Silica helps the plants uptakes of nutrients and i really did notice a change plant seemed over all a little more happy i only added Floralicious as one of the other growers on the site was using it and recommend it to me

I think its a nice add on the girls in veg seem to really enjoy i know one thing i am yielding more every grow i think you get out what you put in i spend a lot of time looking them over training them and dancing for them.... not really the dancing part that might kill them! but really i don't think all the add on are really needed as the environment is key to any successful grow it is just a weed after all and it just needs light and food to grow :)

But in saying that giving the plant a extra boost can't hurt

More info is here http://generalhydroponics.com/site/index.php/products/supplements/floralicious/floralicious_plus/

If i didn't make any sense let me know and ill try clear it help thanks a lot for dropping in

Day 2 Flower Blue dream And Vegging Girls

Hello all just a quick update i transplanted my seedlings and also topped them back to the 3rd set of nodes and apart from that they are looking good


Things are going great in the flower tent the girls are all praying to the light gods and perlite girls are starting to drink a lot 20 liters every 2 days at the moment and that's only going to get worse so might need to upgrade my rez to a 200l/50g but time will tell


Apart from that nothing really to report they are doing what they are meant to be doing thanks for looking. happy growing bongsmilie

I just saw the pictures and I am impressed!
I am on my first Grow with 9 Plants in a 3x3 Tent. And I'm not quite happy with it. I think everything is a little too tight. My next run I plan with 4 Plants. And I think I'll try the mainlining! :bigjoint:

ps: @DirtyNerd

Sorry for highjacking your thread.:eyesmoke:

Wow that's an awesome skeleton. How was you big bang? Ghs? The first seeds i bought when i was a super newb was big bang and their cheese. Despite all the bad reviews they were both good. The bb was more stable pheno wise i poped a5pack 4 poped and i gave one away. The other 3 were pretty much the same. Catpiss and fruity pebbles smell with nice dense light green buds. I think i payed like 20 for a 5 pack too so super cheap.

Yeah GHS i also did there Jack herer as well had one great pheno and one shit! both smoked and tasted the same but one pheno was a 8 week and the other could of went 10 weeks and it was just a ugly but the big bang was a good strain and a good yielder a lot of bad reviews on them but i didn't mind them all there plants have been good yielders and yes they are cheap i think have the bad review out there are from grower fault and they get angry and write a bad review and blame the seed company no one wants to say there shit!

Yeah for sure ghs attracts a lot of newbies with their canna cups. Inexperience and failure go hand and hand and it does feel a lot better to say their beans suck then i didn't know what i was doing. Don't get me wrong it wasn't top shelf but for someone on a small budget looking to get some decent bud is not a horrible choice.
