The UK Growers Thread!

theyve been on the boost - i was supposed to stop this week...do you think i should give em a week or 2 longer? or right up to the end? or flush? lol, sorry - lots of questions
 
still plenty of time to go on them man id keep feeding. then again i feed right to the final moment haha coco doesnt need as much flushing as soil.

ask away man
 
aye as a general rule i feed up to the week the seed pack says theyre due ( its nigh on always another week or 5 days on top ) flush and chop
 
U got me confused now guys whats boost. I was told to get a high nitrogen for veg and low notrogen for flower so i went and got chempak 3 for veg and bloom 8 for flowering, am i feeding it the wrong stuff? Also dosent the b&q mix have sufficiant nutes for first 4 weeks?

boost is the nutes that are used when feeding with flower food, I use all Ionic products so I couldn't really give you info on more products....I'm quite new at this 2. YY, the B&Q stuff has enough food in for 4 weeks, that's why i only fed half the amount of the veg stuff for the first 4 weeks, however - in flowering it was getting both my food and the stuff in the soil. Seems to have worked ok

ok so boost is bloom? I was just worried as i got nute lock but i am right in thinking the general rule is high nitrogen for veg low for bloom, mine says suitable for tomato plants, bonsia trees. Conifers etc?
 
would reccomend finding a grow shop - but there is one near me that will also deliver online... I have been using Ionic Grow - soil, Ionic Bloom- soil and Ionic boost - soil. Also 2 lots of ph down for both veg and flower styou will probably have a shop near you
 
Wass up Stoners, im growing 2 WW fems an 2 nirvana auto NL fems in a dr60 under a 125w dual spectrum cfl. An Ive read a lot of threads with people saying cfls have nothing on HPS so Ive order 250w HPS Sunmaster dual spectrum with ballast and reflector to hang by rollers to replace the 125w cfl. I was just wondering if i would really need an extractor fan for my tent even if it is near a window. An if i do need 1 could anyone recommend a decent extractor fan for a nice price.......

you bro - had a 400w hps since i started, so I couldn't make a personal judgement. You should be fine with the 250w for ur 4 plants I think - i went too big at 1st and its taken me some time to control the temps - I have a small extractor fan4" for bathrooms and I also keep the window open all the time
 
same i had a 600w hps an was told thats way too much only sold it a few days a go. When using a extractor fan will i need ducting or will it still extract air without ducting?
