 Hey, it's been a while since I posted a topic but I want to share what i've learnt about soil and how to improve soil. Soil: What comes to mind when you think of soil, do you think of the earths crust or simply dirt? or do you think of what it's made of and what it can be used for?...Well the soil is full of life and organisms but it's not all entirely organic matter. Treat your soil like a living object like a chain of life underground and you'll be rewarded with amazing healthy lush plants. Understanding the soil, the soil types, nutrients, etc..is half of the trick to growing healthy plants the other half relies on knowing the plants you're growing and it's requireme…  Last reply by RickShawRyder, Last reply by RickShawRyder,

 Ok, more strange questions from me. You dont have to post a reply to say im a crazy weirdo..... i know aready. What would happen if you put aquarium bio media and product like http://www.seachem.com/Products/product_pages/Stability.html in a hydro system? Or using co2 in the water to regulate ph, like in an aquarium co2 system? Using aquarium water primer to get aged water quicker, would that neutralize some of the nutrients?

 Hey guys I have currently got a potted female big bang thats roughly 2m tall and 1m wide at its widest, its in a large pot that is about 6 galon. The pot has very good drainage. It has been flowering for about 2 weeks and i think i will harvest in about 6 weeks. I have only now got specialised bloom nutrients, i bought bio-bloom and bio-grow from biobizz but i am confused how much to use. Here is the instructions and amounts: http://www.hydrogarden.com/content/images/blog/23/12/main/Biobizz%20Grow%20Chart.pdf Now, i only water the plant roughly every 2-3 days atm, i am confused how much of this stuff to add, it says how much to add per liter, but how much water do… Last reply by Sixty-Eight,

 Hi If you were trying to get the most out of your plant, do outdoor growers ever supplement their plants with lights? Would hooking up a LED Flowering grow light 135-watt be a big benefit? Or would a light addition to a flowering plant put it back into vegetative state because of the light / darkness ratio changing? When would you apply the light if it was a good addition, anyone experimented with this? Feel free to tell me i'm dreaming, literally new to this and started v late in the season just trying to yield something... Cheers all -Tea  Last reply by teahaircut, Last reply by teahaircut,

 Hi err'body, I have a couple of questions if you kind be so kind to enlighten me. I read that indoor growers switch the lighting to 12/12 to make the plant flower, how do we achieve this outdoors? When is a good time to make this happen? Surely I'd want my plant to get the most daylight possible, no? My garden bed is up against a wall that shields the sun for a few hours in the morning, would you recommend I grow there or in smart grow pots in the middle of the lawn? In Perth when is the best time/ month to plant or sew seeds? What is a typical harvest period. Lastly, can anyone recommend a good seed bank that is relatively good value for money and has success shi…  Last reply by teahaircut, Last reply by teahaircut,
