I have written a series of blogs testing the 315w Papillon in various setups, I really like the light it is without doubt one of the best grow lights ever made. The reason for doing various tests was to find out how to get the most from this amazing light.

Grow tents are an easy part of hydroponics, most especially indoor growing.

My normal growing style is 1 plant in a 78L root pouch with a 600w light over it, I have been growing this way for a long time and I know that I can produce a minimum of 1g per watt

Compost teas are a great way to supplement your living organic super soil, in this blog I will share with you my recipes for making teas for the veg and flower cycles, all ingredients are organic and will help you produce the best smelling and tasting flowers you will ever grow.

 Do you want good yields of amazing tasting flowers? Then read this blog as I’m about to change the way you grow forever and give you all the information you need to produce the best smelling and tasting flowers you will ever grow!

If you want to grow quicker plants then take a look at Aeroponics.Aeroponics is so simple, it’s basically a process of growing in air with a fine mist being sprayed directly to the roots.

Due to hearing nothing but good things about this light from various sources I decided to give it a test, I will be testing these lights in various setups to see exactly how it performs and more importantly the quality of the flowers it can produce.

               Nutriculture Grow Systems top tips for growing in warm weather: Keeping a room cooler is so much easier, if you’ve got good headroom. Whilst it’s not always possible, we’d suggest around 6ft or higher is the space you should be looking for. This will allow for increased air movement and enable better temperature control.

 The important thing to remember with growing is that you need to learn what the plant needs rather than just doing as the chart says, charts should be used as a guideline and a point of reference.

 Every grower at some point has asked the question “how close do I keep the light to my plant” the closer you can get it the bigger the yield will be but we have to take into account that if we mount the light to close to the plant this will cause burn to the flowers and leaves.

                When growing with a closed loop system it is very important to make sure you have a fully air tight seal on your room, when I build my grow rooms I always build a room within a room using 3x2 timber and plasterboard with an MDF ceiling (to make fixing lights easier) and every joint and gap is filled with either expanding foam or caulk.   After the room is built and I have an air tight room I then line the walls with ORCA grow film this is the best reflective material on the market!!! Yes it’s more expensive than black and white but you get what you pay for and you will see the difference in your yield.

                LST (low stress training) is a brilliant technique for training plants, the idea is to gently bend young plants and tie them down, this forces the plant to grow multiple flower sites meaning that you harvest much bigger yields (everyone likes bigger yields) this technique also allows you to force the plant to grow into a shape and size that you want, which is good for people who don’t have a lot of space.

   PH is a complex subject I’m trying to make these blogs as simple as I can for people who are new to growing. If anyone wants me to expand on anything please let me know

 I have been taking cuttings for around 8 years I take on average 200 a week so I have definitely rooted my share and in that time I have tried all kinds of methods and propagators, this method never fails and can be used on large and small scale operations

   Once you have found a strain that you like and is suited to your growing style, it’s a good idea to keep a mother plant giving you an endless supply of cuttings from your favourite strain. Over the years I have kept hundreds of mother plants, all of which need to be kept healthy in order to give you healthy cuttings

   A common misconception is that plants need to be moved via air movement.  People argue that when the plant moves from side to side, it is made stronger.  This isn’t the case. Every time a plant moves, it has to readjust to the new environment, using up energy that it should be using to grow 

Deep Water Culture DWC

Pure Hydro in its simplest, most effective form

   Deep Water Culture (DWC) is becoming more and more popular. If you’ve not heard about it, where’ve you been? 
This constant feed technique uses little media, but produces incredible yields.

   This blog discusses why it’s the technique that’s got everyone talking and how you can use it for your best ever crop.
