Need to slow down growing

[midlifegardner]

Here's a bit of a mud map of my waterworks. I run it on a plugin timer 15min/hr

No I do not recycle the perlite/clayballs. If you regrow in it you run the high risk of getting root rot. Any old roots that decompose will infect your new root system. I know some people spread their grow medium out and leave it in the sun to sterilize it, but having battled with root rot before, never again. I start afresh, I scrub all of my pots, clean through all of my tubes and resi with a bleach solution.

 

As for what strains I grow, well, that depends. I grow/consume for my own medical purposes due to a brain tumour, so it depends on my needs. I've been lucky enough to obtain a decent collection of beans from some very kind benefactors and I've also been lucky enough to score myself and my wife a couple all expenses paid trips to the UK, with a self paid extension to Amsterdam, where I acquired this lot:-

So I've got me a bit of a variety when it comes to strains

 

Along with strains I also make my own oil using this method https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners.com/topic/56673-introducing-aho-aussie-hash-oil-the-sunny-method/?do=findComment&comment=371138

Make my own tincture https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners.com/topic/45016-op-rum-tincture/?do=findComment&comment=332025

Made a few of my own hash tumblers. Here's one https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners.com/topic/58735-bunnings-hash-tumbler/

Make my own hash from each grow https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners.com/index.php/topic/27354-hashin-it-up/

I also have a bit of a collection of smokes, although that's getting down a bit now https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners.com/topic/12055-all-join-in-just-a-pic-dump/page-154?do=findComment&comment=268059

 

So I've got myself a decent collection of 'complimentary medication'

Hey Merlin, just reading through this post and noticed you got some big bud seeds from your Amsterdam trip. I've grown the auto big buds and enjoyed the stone the most aside from perhaps NL which I prefer. I guess they are photos. Have you grown them out and how did you find them? I'm asking as I've seen some reviews saying it's not strong at all.

And BTW I've used your heavy wire net idea for my scrog and one net above that so I second that advice.

Jim, sorry for the mini thread hijack.

No MLG, I haven't grown them yet. I sampled the smoke in Amsterdam prior to buying them and all seemed gooder to me. Some reviews I take with a LARGE grain of salt, whose grown them? How have they been grown? Indoor? ooutdoor? Hydro? In ground? So many variables.

Some reviews can be real self-serving. I wanted these for a bit of variety to add to my medical smoko collection. I'll let you know when I crack them and we'll see how they go.

Cheers Merlin. As I said with the autos, great yeild and my preferred type of stone. So it's the best of both worlds.....for me anyways

Each to their own, I'm not a fan of autos personally. I like to have a bit of control, so I only brought back femmed regulars. But the sample smokes were all nicely.
