Does anybody find that when the nutriant is mixed in the resvoir to manufacturers spec. the ec comes up to aprox5.5 when it reccomends on the bottle itself an ec of 1.5 the nute i am using is ionic grow, reccomended dosage 7ml per liter, i would be intrested to know if anyone else had similar results, or if my ec meter is on the fritz, if its not which do you go by, the reccomended ec written on the bottle or reccomended dose written on bottle,cos there is a huge difference between the two any feedback greatly appreciated

Hi, Cheers for checking out my thread. So here is the story so far: I am completely new to growing Herb. I've decided to get myself a nice little indoor set up going as soon as I have the funds. Probably going to buy seeds through PS or SB but probably bagseed to begin with as I figure out how to do it properly. Now, I have done my fair share of reading on this site and others like it and I'm pretty sure I have got the gist of it Re growing and ordering seeds online. But there are still a few (major) things I need answered or cleared up before I get going. Ill give you a brief rundown of what the setup will most likely include (and questions): - Grow box (home-made w…

Giday fellas. I know that 6400K Day Light/Cool White CFL's give off blue spectrum light... Or something like that... And I know that 2700K Warm White/Soft White CFL's give off red spectrum light... Or something like that... Well I picked up some CFL's in Woolies today, they are "4100K - Cool Day Light", I got 20 watters coz they didn't have anything higher... The question is... What colour spectrum am I looking at with these 4100K's??? I so fucking confused now! Cheers. ~M.

Hi all this is my first grow in the new drobe everything is running great except that the colas are not looking as good as they should be for 5 weeks (as I have grown this strain few times before) as I discussed in the chat room with people I think it may come down to using an oldish globe?? I swapped for a better one so will see what happens from here....... all nutrients same as usual and all that.......but it has been bloody hot this summer, relentless, so maybe this is part of he cause?? any ideas ?? The strain is NL#1
