hey there, my brain isnt working right. my grow tub is sitting on a small pallet to raise the drain hole to the same height of the water level in the rez. the drain hole from my grow tub is connected to the rez just above the water level so the drainage is going back to the rez by gravity. i can lift the grow tub any higher because of cabinet height and a lot of water seems to not drain back because the drain line isnt really going straight down into the rez, its going in a straight line (is that makes sense) can i put a return hole in the bottom of the rez? not above the water line? see how its above the water line, can it go under the water line? that way…

Righto. So attempt #2 after my first seedling died due to lack of oxygen and possibly too much light.. Im wondering for freshly planted seeds (germinated) what is the best environment for them to grow in? What is the best amount of light? How much water should they be given on a daily basis? What temperature and humidity % should they be in? If you look at the thread "am i doing it right?" you will see my little grow box. I've since added in an intake fan and circulation fan to give fresh air to the plants and am no longer sitting the pots as high as the one in the images, instead they are sitting on the bottom of the box. Any tips would be great! Cheers guys

Hey guys, so I might be the strangest new member of your forum, I dont really smoke, in fact I have had a joint like twice in my life in Amsterdam, and it was fun, but actually not really my thing! Having said that I think the plants are really interesting and I love growing interesting plants, and so got a hold of a seed or two, and now am at the point where I think perhaps it is ready to be chopped and dried. I dont actually know what I will do with it yet, perhaps melt it down into some oil or something, or test a smoke or two, who knows! This is like a one time thing for me, but still I dont really wanna mess it up, and may as well get high Anyway, here she is!…

Hey folks, new to the growing game here so feel free to flame or explain in simple terms . Back in February this year I ordered some auto seeds, all went well (cheers bonza) anyway I read up on a lot of things but originally they were destined for outside, (I was living in bowen at the time so plenty of humidity and warmth etc,) however I had to move back down sth and I had to repot so to speak, so the girls got bugger all sun for a while as I basically had to hide the bloody things, and by the time I got to settle in again I thought I would just put them under some energy saving bulbs, a Philips 24w spiral warm 1550lumes etc, and a smaller variety etc. in the last 2 week…

After having a good think about it... I came up with this idea (See attached pics) I have modded it more now so the lights do not touch the prop and checking temps as well - inside the propagator its over 30c - so I also added a PC fan to the side to vent out heat. The box works - the only worry I have is the smell from it seems a little toxic could kill them if they even sprout up?? Ideas?

Hey guys im curious to know the affects it can have on the plant if you mess around the lighting too much. For example if i was to start the plants of outside with say around 13 hours light per day then move them indoors with around 18 hours light with also the change of the light being on at night. Iv heard it can turn the plants male but what are the affects on an auto feminized and auto flowering plants. Thanks ✌
