The UK Growers Thread!

Its ok to trim (well i do anyway) just dont go mad and do it all in one day it might stress the girl, rather than take off all the leaf just trim it back like the one in the pic i was just getting to grips with.IMG_1677.jpg

They need to sit under the light and tubes are the best for clones as these can sit a few inches above the clones as they produce very little to no heat at all. Blasting clones with HID light makes little difference all you do is waste leccy, clones cant process all the light form a HID lamp without roots so fluorescents are all thats needed. Ive just checked my cold water from the tap its around 12/13 degrees i used a blue lab meter i would def check your meter saerimmner as it could well be giving you dodgy readings mate.

its only under the HPS as thats my veg light and the only space ive got to put the cloner, even with out a thermo the water feels bloody cold when ya put your finger into it, will check it again in a bit though and see if its warmed up overnight
 
just seems strange saerimmner mate that your water is that cold i mean as low as 4 degrees is like water comming straight out ya fridge and with a HID light as well it seems double odd lol, if you got a mate that grows borrow his thermo if he has one and double check it mate. How high you got ya 400 BTW

especially since i put warm water in there in the first place, HPS was about 1ft away, now been lowered a few more inches
 
also does anyone know where i can get recommended flowering times in soil for the strains im running? as after reading thru a lot of threads on here i know the breeders times can be skewed/exaggerated slightly lol

I would raise it man, could be why the clones are dying. Too much intense light is not good for them mate there dilicate things, if it was me and all i had was a HID light i would have it atleast a couple of foot above them.
 
yo ppl, wats the deal with flushing? do i need to pour 3x pot size of water through the pot each time they go dry? a friend said i take each plant in the bath one by one and flush them with 3x their pot size?

yeah ive had different responses and methods trying 2 find the best one, doesn't flushing correctly have a big impact on gaining a good taste from your bud? for example with my last 2 grows the smell of my buds was great but the taste could have been better, i thought this was maybe due to not flushing enough?

personally i flush and have always done so ever since my first ever crop tasted like shite for me there is a difference in flushed bud and unflushed, but the longer the cure the better they will taste, also strain specific as well i would imagine.
 
Had the police round today, polish cunts downstairs decided to (in full view of everyone) go outside, throw an egg at their own window and then call the police and try blaming it on us, all this because i complained to enviromental health about them leaving rubbish everywhere and attracting mice an stuff into the house, slamming doors from 5am-1am everyday without fail and having their moron son living in a caravan in the back garden, their flat n garden looks like a fucking pikey site and all this has been going on continously for 18months now.
Also they got their eviction notice from the landlord today because of the complaints and the fact they have owed £3k in rent arrears for 3 years without even attempting to pay it off and they are all working, whereas me n my g/f are on benefits an cleared our rent arrears of £1700 in 9months( which was only incurred when my missus had pregnancy complications and i had to practically live at the hospital for a month an caused me to lose my job)

I think im going to bide my time til they have left then exact a nice bit of revenge on them in their new place hehehe
 
Revenge is best served in time , thats my moto anyways :) Been and done my induction today so start working as of friday so i need more timers now >.<

So hopefully have ur lights soon sae and buymyself a new cab. My ghetto plants are starting to flower nicely now im still suprised at them lol

Flushing is for nute lock out and for pre harvest. You should always flush the chemicals out u dont really wanna smoke them now do you ?

thats the ticket mate, never rush things..............an egg lol...........
 
night mate.

yeah they wont know whats hit em when they are outta here lol, can anybody say 24 hour deliveries from pizza/kebab/chip shops/taxis, police,social services, immigration etc etc etc, an thats before me an the blokes in their house get to our arguments lmao

and yes an egg, just goes to show what kind of intelligence we are dealing with here, in front of numerous neighbours as well ffs lol.

On a side note is anyone any good with recommended flowering times in soil for the strains im running as i know the breeders suggestions on it are always altered to make the product more appealing lol

They didn't see your grow did they? The pols are usually really friendly as well, well, most of the ones I know, work harder than an ethiopian in a marathon as well. Make sure you rotate your pizza deliveries when you order lol, they may look stupid but they remember these things!

Nice one del, pretty frickin cool looking arent they. Putting them screws in is kind of like anal, you look at it and think thats never gonna fit, then sure enough with a little encouragement, it screws right in. Anyone whos put these airpots together should be able to vouch for this.
 
nah grow is in the loft an i didnt even let em if the front door as the copper straight away had a fucking attitude when i opened the door to him an soon got told to piss off, had enough dealings with police in my near 12 years working the doors, they quickly realise they cant bully me around like your average joe in the street so they dont attempt it when they know that you know the ins an outs of the law lol
