hell yeah thats real creative homie good job

[latewood]

you need to lower your light to within 2" of seedling to keep it from stretching...this will allow the plant to develop roots, instead of reaching for the light and having poor root development...and put small fan in there to stimulate girth/thicker plant...nice box...I see that you put dull side of aluminum foil...if you remove foil and paint inside of box with flat white paint, you will get better light reflection...imho, goodluck

Ok I Latewood thanks for the advise. I really need a fan . Today has been REALLY irritating i have gone through a wall heh I hope no one tells me this was a dumb idea The Fertiliser has a N-P-K of 10.6-4.4-1.7 is it any good?

[latewood]

cool hole... that fert, never heard of. What is the amount per gallon to be used?
what do directions say it was made for?...maybe try 1/4 strength...update us with more info on the ferts...where did you get it?

[latewood]

I googled baby bio and found there website...went to ready to use and the faqs...
notice the bottom faq. It states, "care should be taken with regards to some plants, such as Orchids, Cacti and Bromeliads, as these do not require such frequent feeding. It is always advisable to check the plant label"...

...With that said. I would advise that this stuff might work although I would use 1/4 strength at first and alternate feeding with ph ro/distilled water
w/superthrive 1/4 tsp per gallon...BUT...Pay Attention! But, Do not give seedlings any ferts until it has 4-5 tiers/knodes and has established a root system on it's own...

...then you start feeding regimen... keep us advised...

...I imagine Zandor or someone else might chime in on the topic of baby bio...

...I might try a plant grow; using baby bio and superthrive through out
veg, along with bat guano and fishmeal or something like that...perhaps Mand will send me a bag of her "Magic Homemade English Compost"...later

OK here is what I found at Baby Bio site

Q. When feeding my house plants with Baby Bio Ready To Use should I make sure the compost is either wet or dry before application of the feed?

A. When applying Baby Bio Ready To Use to the compost of a house plant it is advisable to ensure the compost is just moist. If a plant is in compost that is either too dry or too wet then it may be stressed and therefore will be unable to absorb the nutrients from the feed. If you are unsure about the correct watering of a plant, may I suggest you try the Baby Bio When To Water Indicators.

Q. When is the best time to feed my house plants with Baby Bio Ready To Use? The best time to feed house plants, and indeed any plant, is when they are actively growing (i.e. that is when new growth can be clearly seen).

A. For house plants this can be all-year-round. It is advisable to check the plant label for specific advice or refer to 'The House Plant Expert' by Dr Hessayon.

Q. Can I use Baby Bio Ready To Use on my herbs growing on my kitchen windowsill?

A. Yes. Baby Bio Ready To Use is a fertilizer based on nutrients which are essential for all plant growth. It is blended in such a way as to provide the optimum feed for house plants but any plant, especially pot plants could benefit from an additional feed with it.
Are there any house plants that I should avoid using Baby Bio Ready To Use on? No. Baby Bio Ready To Use can be used on all house plants. However care should be taken with regards to some plants, such as Orchids, Cacti and Bromeliads, as these do not require such frequent feeding. It is always advisable to check the plant label or refer to 'The House Plant Expert' by Dr D G Hessayon if

ehh everything grey? anyways Thank you latewood for finding that for me and thanks for the warning because I was already feeding it with the baby bio :dance: only once though ... and it said 5 to 10 drops per pint of water so I put 3 drops but im not using it know k. Yeah I live in the UK and got it from Homebase that we have here.. wanted to get the bat guano and asked someone and the guy there just looked at me like I was asking him about some excotic plant or something so i knew they didnt have it..I also wanted an extractor fan but decided to go cheap. I found some thread were Turtle420 is growing dont know which hmmmm rastakaze I think told him to just put a plastic bag over the fan and get the tube anyways pics below. I know the new growspace sucks in terms of neatness and such but yeah :thumbsup:

[latewood]
