some things I found neccesary for a good yield and taste.
*Get your in temps in order between 70F (21C) and 84F (29C).
*Use a specialised Veg and Bloom nutrient mixes and don't fuck around tomuch with nonsence additives. Proper (working) additives are; PK-13/14 based bloom booster, CO² injection, mycorhizza spores, bacterial mix, CO² tabs.
* Use a decent medium fertilized soil specialised for growing cannabis. (I use plagron Bat-mix)
* Work your way down from a high humitidy (80%>) when the plants are young too a low humidity (<40%).
* Work your EC levels up slowly too 1.5 weeks before harvest.
* Stop giving nutrients 1.5 weeks before harvesting for the taste.
* Use proper lights for blossoming (1x 400w HPS per 1.2m²)
* Air intake should be at the bottom and air outlet at the top.
* Give moderate amounts of water (soil should be dry though and though 2 days after you watered it)
* Get your PH on 6.0 for soil and 5.6 for VEG on hydro and 5.8 for bloom on hydro.
* When you can't get a decent harvest on soil, don't start with hydro.
* When you notice anything changing with the plants, ready up on it on the interweb.

Great thread BW...I take interest and must agree/disagree with you on one point; Otherwise I agree and think it great for you to take the time...
I love the air in low/air-out high...most don't think that way.
I think your 2nd line is a little...the 1st part about using pronutes or whatever you call them, and formulated for growing MMJ is the whole point. Good Point.
but, when you print that the additive choices you made, are the only true smart choices...that is BS.
And by the way, I have to say it...The Dutch are not the only people in the world, that know how to grow cannabis; C'mon, Bro.
Granted, I like your methods, but it comes off to me, like 'You' appear to think alot of the people here are stupid little sheep...
and that offends me; Sir!
Hope we can get through this without mudslinging...It is just my
humble' opinion. lw

Sorry latewood,
I didn't wanted too offend anyone. I just wanted to clearify the things that are important for a good yield. A lot of newbies get shocked by all of the products you can buy for a better yield. I just wanted to show them what additives have the biggest positive impact on your yield. I can understand that for them all those commercials and adds on sites of nutrient producers they wouldn't nkow what too buy.
It's really not my intent to offend someone, I'm just trying to help.
And about the fact that the Dutch aren't the only ones who can grow cannabis is greatly proven by the majority of growers on this site.
And just for the sheer fun of it....

I can't believe no-one , especially new grower's here had no question's or responses to this thread...Oh well BUMP...
Bw...I would like to add that I have been studying up on plant deficiencies and such and came across an instance when you 'do' in fact set your ph at 6.5...before I say for what; Just for fun; Let's see who comes up with an answer. lw

BW or anyone with some suggestions :)
can you please tell me how you get your humidity up and then down from 80% to 40%? I am not quite sure how to do that, I am new at this.. Also where is the best place to get all of the materials needed for the grow? Online, local flower shops, Walmart ?

Use an online growshop if there arn't any where you live. I always go to a shop of a mate of mine but if I had too order online I'd go Leafman.nl
You can highten your humidity by hanging wet towels in the room or putting a saurcer of water in there. You can lower it by regulating the power of your intake fans.

If you don't have enough humidity...move to my area. LOL
Running as much hydro as I do...in the Region I am in. I fight high humidity more than any other factor in my grows...
good idea BW, hanging towels..little tidbits to a happy grow.
an open tub of water works also, and if you want to raise humidity tub produces...put a spare light voer open tub to heat water...or a heat mat under neath tub to raise the temp. Like a water bed heater.
Just spewing ideas that are rolling through my fingers. lw

Get your airoflow up, that'll lower humidity latewood
