Grow Mediums Cat tries the 1st Northern Lights grow in coco

[Cat]

Thanks to @Bailey and others for all the help during my first grow. I'll try take a couple of pics of my plants for tomorrow. They're doing quite well. The younger plant is now 2.5ft high and has lots of branches with loadsa buds...mmm.yum... I've just been to our local Poundland store and bought some goodies. All items are £1 each.

I am not sure how the PK boost will go, but for £1, it can't go wrong (I hope). I think I should only use the boost 4 x during flower, but can anyone advise me if I use it in addition to nutes or do I just use it on its own?

Best I can do just tailor it to what u have the idea is to show you how much nutes is required View attachment 596720 View attachment 596721

That's excellent, bailey, thanks. I did come across the second chart this morning, but not the first... very helpful mate

That's the one bro smell it as I got a bottle and it smelt like hair dye so chucked it there are a lot of people who use it with great results and honestly as you know iv been feeding one plant only Pl nutes and she very healthy.

I would only recommend using for one week at the start of preflower and then one feed on week 3 of flower then again for one week around 2_3 weeks before chop and yeah it mixes with all ure other nutes. I let tap water sit 24 hr before using it and I add the pk boost first stir well add the next nute stir well untill finnish with nutes ph check then feed slowly boom

Lol I just had a whif and glad to say that it doesn't smell of hair dye, more like faint bubble gum. Thanks for the tips, I'm a little late for starting, so will try a dose in a couple of days and then near the end of flower. Cheers

Run for one week then again just before chop if uve never used a pk boost before ull definitely see why it's so popular as it really helps bud production

Here’s some (not so good) pics of my youngest Northern Light auto. As it's only the second weed plant I've ever grown, I'm really pleased. She’s now 49 days old and just over 2.5ft tall. There’s about 10 side branches all with nice buds and the tops are coming on too. Yesterday I fed her some PK boost from Poundland and after 24hrs, the leaves looked a lot greener.

The only issue I have is humidity. I live in a city with high levels, but with the new fan, I’m usually able to keep levels between 50-55%, although they can often climb to 60% when lights are off. This isn’t ideal, but I’ve got to work with it. I blow a lot of air around and keep the tent open at night. Hopefully I can avoid any associated issues.

@Cat like you said, airflow is key. I live in a high humidity area and mine gets as high as 80% with lows near 60.. So just keep that air moving mate. Looking nice..
