New Grower Mephisto Strawberry Nuggets, 4 Assed Monkey & Fantasmo Express x Sour Stomper

[NiceOption]

just head straight down to your local catering store, preferably a large one and they’ll have them in there for dirt cheap and every which whatever way shape and size that you can think of.

I haven’t got round to going down there yet, i already have one that i rotate between plants to aerate the bottoms of the smart pots, but they’re gonna be your simplest and most likely easiest option for racks. Baking settling racks or similar would be ideal

Found some stainless trivets for serving hot dishes that have worked perfectly! A fiver a pop but I guess they'll last forever.

looking great my man!

you'll get some stretch on all three any time now. pretty sure Strawbs tend to be on the smaller side. 4AM can go either way, seen larger phenos but again more commonly smaller girls, always top report on the buds though. doubt the little droop is worth worrying over, she looks ace.

Thanks dude, you've put my mind at ease a little. Still somewhat nervous about her but might just dial back the nutes a little. SNs seem to be pretty hungry but maybe the 4AM could use a little less. From what i can tell, it could be too much N. We'll see how she goes.

Can't decide what to pop next!!? I thought there'd be some better deals around on Black Friday to be honest, will still pick up a few though I'm sure.

Yeah if it’s the nutes you’ll find out soon enough after lowering them i think N is something you really need to keep and eye on with autos, N toxicity seems to be a common problem among new auto growers.
For the next grow i think i’m going to see if i can find some organic liquid sources of N and PK and other macronutrients so i can start mixing something a little lighter grow mix and test it out on the white widow. I’ve done it for flowers and orchids so don’t see why i can’t do it for bud.

Trivets are perfect man, that’s what i got as they fit in 11l trays perfectly but i was trying to remember that word but it’s a little obscure.

I'm actually thinking now that the clawing could be caused by cool 'night time' temps. It's very cold round these parts at the moment, i just checked on em with the lights off and it's 15c in there

Might need to employ your super-hi-tech hot water bottle method as a quick fix. Not sure my GF's gonna be too pleased about me repurposing that though...

worth noting this Tangie of mine is around 4-5 days ahead of my Meph seedlings at the same age, so could just be a bit behind what you’re used to.

definitely!! anything under 15 Celsius is a death sentence bro!

Yep... thinking I might have to just run the lights 24/7 until I can find something to raise the temps a bit.

Any suggestions? Something small that's not going to start a fire would be ideal.

I bought a 180w tube heater for £30 off a popular internet marketplace and it’s overkill for my little space...just the foot long single 60w heaters would suffice I reckon - low power use and safety shut offs etc built in

would be way more efficient than running the HPS 24 hours for sure

I agree man, a small 60w tube heater put on low just as the light turn out should keep things good and not use much additional electricity.

Sadly if those ambient temperatures drop below 19-21c the hot water bottle will have the heat leeched out of it in 20 mins and only raise the temp a touch until the extractor sucks it out.
Hanging Five water bottles isn’t exactly ideal lol.
It’s times like these i’m glad i sleep with the plants, the temperature doesn’t move much from 20c in my room

looks like you’re sleeping in the tent with the girls tonight @NiceOption

If only my tent was big enough for that, I’m not sure I’d mind so much haha
