General Cultivation Q&A

Hey, just wondering if you guys could lend me your knowledge & experience in outdoor growing around the South East Queensland area Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

Hi guys, second grow here. Do buds sites need light? I have read (on other websites) that they do. From what I understand, the flowers grow bigger? On the other hand, if there are less leaves then photosynthesis is not taking place as much? However, defoliation, especially around bud sites seems common practice to get lights to the bud sites. I defoliated quite a bit the plant at the back and the one at the front not much at all. Low stress training on both of them. Vegging for 4-5 months on both plants. Around 9 days into 12/12 light cycle. Back plant has a 10 gallon pot, front plant a 15 gallon. Grown in osmocote organics plus and powerfeed pink.

Hey crew, Just wondering how to get my plants to start flowering ASAP! On 12/12 for a week, really need to get them outdoors in a hurry! Got too many so want to weed out before moving. Give a PK hit?? Any tips would be appreciated. They’re about 4ft and healthy, been in veg for about 12 weeks Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

Could only source Cyco Coco... Never used it before... Not impressed. There's a lot of sand residue after its been washed, also I found it to very fine, almost to the point of powder. Anyone else find this with the Cyco Coco? Maybe I just copped a crook bag.

Unlike the rest of the world, we don't have foxfarm or any premium soil available locally What is the best off the shelf soil mix ?? (obviously will be adding perlite etc )

Whats the most extreme mutants you've encountered? excluding the obvious ones that happen. i have had a few mutants back in the day, i actually went out of my way to find them for a while when i had more beans than sense. had a couple of poly's.. tri-nodes.. and one that still blows my mind today, was a microplant.. i had one abnormal looking seed pop and i let it go for a week in cotton wool before i decided to physically remove the shell myself. i noticed, there was a separate growth that was about 2mm long, and about 1/10th of a mm wide shoot and a tiny pinhead of green spec on it. I tried to keep this alive, drip feeding it 5 or so times a day in a microfine …

Hi, I have read up about stabilsing a strain and interested to get an answer to my question. I have a new strain, the first from the seeds that I produced via colloidal silver method. If I really like the way one phenotype has grown and tastes, to reproduce her do I clone a few then allow one to seed? Or is there a bigger process to get her stabilised? COP and WW

Anyone tried mega crop for a full flowering cycle( soil medium)?? Npk is 10:7:18. If used throughout flowering is the N ratio a bit heavy to be feeding during late flower period? Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

Hey fellow growers, I came across this last night and thought I could help people out by showing you this analysis of potting mixes from Bunnings & Nurserys. They are detailed charts that show how tomatoes grow in their soils, PH values, wettability etc. I know it is from 2012 but hey it can only help if you are questioning buying potting mix, some are very good & some are shit so take a look. Regardz joodzr, peaceee.
