Probably not a fire hazard, might be worth asking a Q in the lighting section to ease your mind (I know you are uneasy with electrical stuff). Don't drop them bulbs though mate, that's one of my nightmare scenarios. If you break a cfl bulb over your plants, you would have to throw the whole lot away.

So you are not using bloom nutes then, just relying on the nutes in the B&Q soil and the additives? I am surprised you have gone that route mate, lets hope it doesn't cause you any problems.

Ahh right, I get you now. That seems complicated to me, I just mix it all together.

Im not a firm believer of things being root bound as ive seen those plants grown in party cups to about 30 cm tall and yield like 1/2 oz but could be wrong..
I used the cannazyme but I don't know how much of a difference it makes. I am using a different brand of nutes atm (cos they were free) and I seem to be getting similar results. I am still using the canna nutes I bought for vegging though.

Cannazyme > I am using this stuff which is similar > Dutch Pro Take Root
Cannaboost > this stuff seems to do prettty much the same > Dutch Pro Explode
Canna Hydro Flores > using this stuff instead > Dutch Pro Bloom

I am also using smallish 10" pots, I have tried larger but it doesn't seem to increase yield. I have noticed that the plants in the smaller pots drink more though, which is counter intuitive (to me anyway) and in my last grow the 2 plants in the smaller pots grew the biggest and produced the most weed.

Thanks for the offer but I'm good. I got 1 plant at 5.5 wks flower, 4 bonsai at 2.5weeks flower and 1 bonsai at 0.5 wks flower. My summer smoke is sorted.
