haha I was dictating pages before on my MacBook and it was such hard work having to delete and rewrite as the words it was coming up with made for interesting reading. At least in the written format 99% of people can understand me, you either need to be illiterate or blind then not to understand.
As for Instagram I do have an account and you can follow me there should you choose. the details are cultivator_420. Its a newish account but plenty pics, not many followers like. im not that popular for some reason. shit if my book does as well as my Instagram account im screwed haha.
Sorry no update tonight. I actually didn't make it to the grow myself and my apprentice was there instead so no pics but I will get a good update tomorrow for def.

Lol I feel ya about instagram I don't have a lot followers either
You guys have me! Lol. I use the Instagram is more for potential and current sponsors. Most of them want you to have one so why not?
And the rest of the book goes like what I've read it should do really well! I like how you plan to include mistakes. A lot of these books tell you how to grow but not how not to grow. If that makes sense?

It's all about hash tagging as many things as possible to drive traffic and gain followers
neither of you should have any trouble with the bud porn and knowledge you provide. Start by tagging things like #420 #weed etc.... you'll notice a substantial increase in traffic. I'm new too but I'm just figuring that part out and gained like 80 followers in the last week

I haven't personally used it but my bother in law has done a couple and I helped on a couple few years ago. they are rubbish mate. my brother in law had cvionstant root issues and on both attempts ended up top feeding. The ones I done I had massive prior with fungus gnats and problems with the power supply at the property tripping so I couldnt give a true fair opinion based on what I helped with. I used the alien version which is similar without the airstone in each pot. Id say id go with that over autopots but you've done plenty grows now mate., if I were you id do flood and drain. or top fed droppers. most people I've met in the UK that work in grow shops know very little about growing and t.hey always want you to spend money on what makes them their best mark ups mate, 10% discount though hahaha.
Well you gained one new follower cult, slowly but surely ayy! .
I really do think it's aweosme you're writing a book pal, you'll be leaving your mark on this planet forever. Even when your dead and gone you'll still be teaching newbies how to grow and improve. What a guy! .

I saw where autopot has a new line of automated systems with new valves feeding the pots. Don't know if they're an improvement but I can't
Find the Alien systems here in the States or I would look at those for sure.

Allways 10% discount hahaha I'd never guess you had a hydro shop
A few of my friends own a shop so I no the price ups they use 1.8x what they pay is standard I love winding em up telling me I'm going to a different shop to save 3 quid or something lol
Ye I've done to many grows really but still looking for that easy bullet proof system to gimme a bit of me life back you no how much works involved better than most
I do like the flood An drain systems but I'm scared to use it agen cuz the brain failing many times funny enough when you mentioned about using a iws on the alien system I went out An brought the brain for £280 liking ya thinking then I changed me mind an set up a dripper system it's been working great apart from I over vegged An now a few weeks in I have pm all over Any ideas I been using sulphur burner but that only seems to slows it down . I can only thin out half the room aswell cuz it's through a scrog net An I can't quite reach the back sides. Zzzzz life as a Grower hey lol

so heres an update on whats going in with the Manual fed Blz Bud, Kings Banner and Huckleberry first.
They are looking good now and are 4 weeks in to 12/12. They have stretched like crazy and some are 7' tall. I had a longer veg and was hoping for bigger plants when I started this job, but I also was expecting more males from the regular seeds. Its really cramped in the manual room and its more because of the diff sizes of the plants than the number. This is a good example why you shouldn't mix strains in a room if you don't know their physical traits before hand, especially from seed. However this is my job and and this is what I do!
I still haven't finished pruning the plants. I was sick, then was in Spain and I am in the process of writing my book, starting another company and trying to spend some time with my family, its been a tough 2 months. I am going to finish the pruning tomorrow on the manual plants, its a week late but they are 9 week flowers and the kings banner are 10 seekers so it will be fine. will make a huge difference to space when I finish that though.
The mix now is:
ionic coco bloom 1.6ec
advanced metaboost 0.5ml\litre
buddhas tree PK 0.25ml/l
sensizym2ml/l
carboload 2ml/l x2 week
ph 5.8
They have a nice colour to them and although very tall nice internodal spacing. it looks like the canopy should fill out nicely. I will be happy with 100oz dry from that room even though it should be minimum 140oz dry but the fact they diff strains from seed and its all diff heights and some are taking the strong feed s better than others it all matters. next round it will only be BLZ Bud in there.
So that brings me to the Aeroclones I took a couple weeks ago.. I can't remember the day or date but roughly 2 weeks. I took the clones a week too late really as some of the clones are showing flower too much for my liking but they will go in the bin. They could be used and will likely be fine but the are the feminized seed biz clones that show signs of flower and I don't want to reveg then flower and risk herms, especially when I don't have to do that. I will use some of them that look fine though. I will give 9 of the Kings banner clones away to a friend who will grow and flower them and I will take cuts from those before he flowers. from those cuts and his plants I will decide which to keep as mothers if any. I wouldn't keep a clone from a first generation as a mother, in other words a clone took from a seed plants because I want to see how stable the genetics are. I've seen plants grow great from seed then look weak from the clone and I've also seen the opposite. The clones are a little yellow, thats normal of course but not for me. I normally have lush green clones and avoid yellowing from a couple of tricks I use which include no direct light on clones and nutrient in the reservoir so they can feed as soon as they root. but due to the nature of setting the clones up in a rushed manner it wasn't perfect. I will clear that space and use it as a veg and cloning station and the next lot will be better.
This last pic was taken 2 or 3 days ago so you can see how fast the roots grow once they get started. All thats in the aerocloner res is sensizym or cannazym (I forget), voodoo juice, drip clean and calmag+ which I added today. ph 5.4
Now we have the BLZ Bud in the Alien System. They are desperate for a feed and a res change tomorrow will get them back on full strength feed. Im actually regretting using this method against these plants because they are struggling to uptake nutrient to start with. I wasn't thinking clearly when I made the decision to do this. Normally with healthy plants its a good thing but these plants, although flowering well, I could see were struggling due to poor saturation of the medium with such dense roots. The manual fed plants are hard to feed also, I definitely over done it this time on the root density and it shows too much of anything is never a good thing. Heres a few pics of the Alien set up and you can visibly see the yellowing, you could be mistaken for week 8 not end of week 4. day 35 of flower 12/12.
Finally because my updates have been few and far between this month for reasons already mentioned I will add a couple of pages from my book for you all to check out. Don't get too excited its only from the introduction and it will likely be different on final daft but will give you something to think about. Im putting a lot of work into this book, I don't care about the financial aspect although thats nice, I care that my work is recognised and I know I have knowledge to contribute. I've grown legally and illegally and in several diff parts of the world and I have a good story to tell. It will be an encyclopaedia really but I will get a few tales in there some where. So enjoy and don't be too hard on me.....
I should have been way more active this month considering being nominated member of the month for yet another time haha. its been fun watching the poll, I knew I had no chance but. thanks to anyone who voted., its a popularity contest after all and I am definitely marmite in that regard. never mind. someone else will be crowned tomorrow and to be honest the prize package will be better off with someone else, I don't need that stuff... I really was touched by the nomination this month though, im quite a hard man when it comes down to it and I've shed more tears this month over happy things than at any point in my life put together thus far. I won't go into details but I t was a really lovely thing to see on the 15th jan when I was in an awful place, im grateful I already have the title and thats good enough for me, im not greedy
