The UK Growers Thread!

i guarantee ul c a difference mate,i used to use hydrogarden buddy but found it quite average really

 

[tip top toker]

that's what i mean. I seen to be getting a significantly smaller yield using a 600w hps and no boost, in comparisson to a 400w with boost. It doesn't make sense that it can be that beneficial. Maybe iot's strain dependant to an extent as my sweet tooth is simply adoring the 600w. I've a second 600w grow without boost for this lady ending in about 4 weeks so i'll be able to offer some really nice comparison photo's

lol, cheers brock, went out tonight and said to all the guys that were out and said they were going to the dam soon "just listen, I have it on good authority, go for the headband" they all loooked at me like I was crazy haha.

You guys no that boost nutes are just cal and something else micro nutes (I forget the others now but Im not in a good state of mind). Just got some molasses, that will do the trick just as well, unsulfered that is.

canne use molasses in hydro bro

i think canna boost has yukka extract/sugars etc in it as well??

Ahh really? didn't know that. Hydro definitely has a lot of advantages over soil though if you're good I guess. Not nearly as forgiving haha.

morning bro, nor did i untill riu. i believe it makes a big mess (would clog ur lines etc) but i'm sure ttt will give an accurate description of the effects.

i've nearly nearly 4 grows when the current cheeses have done. i've used coco and compost, from bio bizz to the cheep stuff from asda's 2 for 6 quid or something. one of my mates insists that the best tasting weed i grew was the 1st one in the asdas soil (lol) with no boost and pk :/ that was a big learning curve for me to say the least. but thats one of the reasons i wanna do a side by side with the boost, i do think it works but wanna be certain and see the results myself like tt

i think i get more yeald in coco though as i'm able to control exactly what it needs and when which is why the hydro is coming back out for my next round of lemons

i always use canna boost on every grow,for me no other boost product performs as well for the hawain snow ive got on the go lad,i was sceptical at first as well but trust me it nearly triples my yield used in conjunction with green haze and a 400watt hps,it aint cheap thats for sure but what quality product is these days mate,just my opinion tho as im sure someone will disgree!!

 

[WOWgrow]

I suppose that makes sense, it is pretty thick, could easily clog it up. Did you use any nutes on that asda grow? If not, organic weed does taste amazing! Next grow I think I'll get a 250ml of boost and use it on one of the autos or maybe the OG/ TW.

Don't know if any of you guys saw this programme the other night on BBC 3, it's called "How drugs work: cannabis". Some of the stuff is pretty well presented but the fucking guy commentating always makes it sound worse than it is. In one bit he says "--- and his friends believe holding the smoke in for upto 15 seconds gets them more stoned, when in reality they are absorbing 5 times more tar into their lungs, which can lead to bronchitis". Doesn't say anything about the fact that they're smoking tobacco in their joints, lol.

i tried the canna boost and it is good but you can achieve the same using a lot cheaper stuff. pk13/14 and a few of the other range of canna stuff will do you fine

 

[tip top toker]

Posted a big thing about molasses and hydro but the forum went awol short story is it's doable but you massively increase chances fo complications, of quite epic proportions.

I need to get down to the shop and pick something up though as my cheese plants almost aren't worth flowering in my cab considering how much they're yileding for the space they're using. Getting tempted to move my veg tent into a bunch of computers or similar items that can be left in the room, and turning the veg wardrobe into a second flowering one. Although it just annoys me how few plants i'm able to grow under my 600w

 

[Saerimmner]

Has anyone ever come across something called FYTOCELL? apparently its a perlite replacement, hydro shop bloke is sending me some free stuff out to try but no idea what the hell its even made of

 

[tip top toker]

a thermosetting resinous product made by condensation of a compound containing an amine (e.g., melamine or urea) with an aldehyde (e.g., formaldehyde): is used in making permanent-press fabrics and other products

Not much i can find on what it really is.

 

[staffy]

i think canna boost should defo be used in conjuction with pk 13/14 which costs pennies relatively speaking

well you got further researching it than i did lol

 

[Saerimmner]

I paid £16 for my bag of coco (think its 50L) but you can flush it and pick out the roots after you're done and then re use it. Definitely a worthwhile investment.

if its of any interest ive found a place that does it at £10 a bag but theres a small delivery charge ( i paid £6 on a £40 order) feel free to PM me for the link( dont wanna put it in here in case i get accused of advertising for the place lol)

PM me that please made, gonna need it for my next grow. May as well save a couple of quid.

Just fed the plants with some molasses tonight, sticky fucking business I tell ya. Opened the jar and the shit went everywhere, all over my slacks and everything. Smells like a badgers arse an all. will give it the benefit of the doubt though, lol.

I watched Wall E the other night stoned and that film is great to watch when your high.
