Update 1 31/08/2012

Seeds have been in a cup of water for 24 hours and have all sunk. Placed in some Damp tissue paper to germinate a little more before placing in 3.6 litre pots Coco with a little perlite mixed in..

Just calibrated my PH and EC testers from Hanna Instruments.

Can somebody let me know if the EC Pen is calibrated correctly ?? The calibration solution is 2,76 and I have calibrated the pen to 28 and in small letters above 28 it says 100 on the display..





If this calibration is correct then my tap water has a EC of 04 and PH of 7.3

Those don't look like Hanna meters that I've ever seen. Looks like you've got em dialed in.
You'll love TD in coco.

Cheers Tavid.... There definately Hanna, the cheap ones... Just got an email of a mate who also uses them and he tells me that I have got them dialled in correctly.. http://www.hydrodiscount.com/catalo...-dist-4-eco-/product_info.php/products_id/736

All the TD's have now been put into rockwool cubes which have been soaked in PH 5.2 water with a 1/4 dose of amino root.. Final PH of the cubes is 5.8

Thanks DPT, Yep I think I have it all planned out.. Just worried about temps as were still in summer here and outdoor temps are around 30c... I have managed to get a steady 27c-28c temp in the grow room with the 400w...

Also just orderered on e of these for the flowering stage -



This is supposed to be the best 600w on the market for flowering here is a translated product description -

The brand can Superplant blush biggest brands in the market for lighting!

Just finished preparing my pots of coco,,im a little unsure if 3.6 litre pots are to small to go all the way with ?? or will I need to potup to bigger at some point through the grow ??

Coco soaked with PH 5.8 and 1/4 strength amino root.. Run off from coco is PH 6.0

Right on! So you're using Coco? You should get some KILLER results man. I played around with coco, and the growth rate was similar to hydro.
