Hi, New to the forum and never grown anything. From what I've read, a DWC system is probably the best way to start. I would prefer to grow in some cupboard space, and was only wanting to grow two plants in the long run but perhaps only begin with one. I saw this http://www.hydroponicxpress.com.au/shop/p-deep-flow-dutch-bato-kit.html online but would rather buy locally. I could travel anywhere between Northern NSW and Brisbane if the right store could be recommended as would prefer not to buy online. In regards to the sizing of plant, but would something like this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2x-Hydroponics-German-Grow-Light-Tent-XS-Indoor-Room-60x60x140cm-Aluminum-…

G'day everyone. If you're looking to increase your plant health, and ultimately you're harvest, read on and look no further than purifying the toxic source water our government -forces- upon us (at least those of us using town water). You will be surprised, and likely shocked after reading this. After a search here, the very few threads that even mention chlorine or more importantly chloramine seem to have some poor information in them so i'm here to clarify... I think that this topic is EXTREMELY underestimated and unfortunately most of you are not informed as to the impact this is having on your plants nor prepared to deal with it. First of all I want to give you al…

Hey guys, I have been doing some searching on the forums but havent been able to find any information about air/rocket pots - has anyone used them ? have had good experiences ? They seem like a good idea for getting more air into the medium and susposibly have much better root growth. Id like to buy some but do not don't want to buy them to find out that they are actually terrible. Here is the blurb from the airpot website: "Air-Pot containers get the best out of all plants because they develop a remarkable root system. And vigorous roots support healthy and prolific plants. Like many clever tools, it is actually very simple – the Air-Pot ‘air-prunes’ roots and this…

$14.95 for a 90L brick: -No added fert (preferable here) -Has not been pre-buffed (so you may want to buff it with cal / mg or something, though probably unnecessary if you are using a complete fertiliser.) -Takes about 15-30 to decompress, fast and easy process of spraying the brick with a hose, letting it soak for 1min and scrapping off an inch at a time, rinse, repeat. -Cheap and takes up much less space. Personally I don't see much point in paying 5x as much for Canna or H&G, that money is way better spent on more lighting or some seeds. Hope this might save y'all some money, don't be scared to try it and don't listen to hydro shop guys telling you to u…

This is my first grow and I was wondering if this is ok for the plant in the early stages, the seeds popped and I have been putting it outside in direct sunlight during the day and bringing it in about 3 or 4 ish in the afternoon and putting it under led grow light for about 12hrs of an evening the plant is looking healthy and seems to like its outside time, this wouldn't stress the plant would it?

Howdy all, Sorry if this is in the wrong part of the forums I didn't know where else to put it. This is more for the breeders on the site or anyone with good information on breeding. So I just got my next lot of beans and am starting the planning for my next grow and I was wondering if it's possible to hermie an Auto girl into self pollinating for some free fem seeds, or would it be better to use her to pollinate another, un-hermied, girl? I'm also curious what the rate of hermie to female seeds is from pollination of this kind and the best method of doing this is? The beans are Fem Autos Thanks guys

What would cause very harsh awful tasting bud? Yeuccck. Havent had anything this bad since I were a teenager! Not sure if I'm posting this in the correct forum. Would it be to do with the curing process/pesticides? It also made me feel like crap. The high eventually kicked in. But didn't do much for relaxation. Just another reason why I need to grow myself!

I've had two plants in the yard last season. One turned out to be a boy and was cut off, the other a girl which gave me lots of bud. After the harvest, I pulled both stumps out of the bed and planted corn in the bed. A few weeks ago, I noticed some weeds growing in the bed and went to pull them out, when I realised these were actually cannabis plants. I let them grow for a while and today I noticed that one of them started to grow balls, the other buds. Both are about 50-60cm tall and it looks like both plants are growing back from some leftover roots in the bed. I guess they are flowering because the days are still shorter than the nights and they're in "winter mode". …
